Here’s the last five pics on my flickr photo account: The final act in Tom Waits’ 60th Anniversary Tribute Concert in Oslo At this point all the performers got on stage and sang Innocent when you dream with the audience. It was sold out! The locker room by the shower at work where I take […]

Whenever I see Wikimedia throwing a fundraiser I can’t help but give. Whenever I use the internet and come across something I need to cross-check or just wonder about, I do a lookup on Wikipedia. I claim it is the #1 source of technical info in the world when it comes to Information Technology. Whenever […]

Yep, these shoes were made for walking, they’re called "walking shoes", and they also came in the distinct color of black. That’s half a year of garbage dust, plaster and mortar dust, spackle remains and paint stains on what were a pair of brand new, black walking shoes. They creak like a nervous hamster in […]

Friday afternoon after I arrived home I sat down, got good and drunk and finally updated some family-friendly pictures from our trips to Rome (April 2008) and Paris (April 2009). Me and Lady C are birthday neighbours, but instead of pricey gifts we much rather indulge ourselves some great traveling experiences, a gift that keeps […]

The scariest picture of the day was taken this morning when I opened my office and realized that there wasn’t room for me anymore. Anywhere. To my colleagues I just have to say that I’m so sorry for all the scratches on your new laptop, but that’s what happens when they’re stacked in piles of […]

I got a spam letter in my electronic & digital post box this morning. Its subject line read: "Five tips for swingers!" But I didn’t click it. I didn’t click it because a) I’m not a swinger and b) I know there be dragons and URLz! Instead I made up my own personal tips for […]

As some of you recall, I got a radio-controlled car called Marchand SEA BLASTER very cheap back in January. Back then it was still snowy and cold and I had no opportunity to test it out except for in our living room, until Lady C put her foot down (and I rammed into it). I’ve […]

On Friday I got word that Jesus had been apprehended by Israeli anti-terror forces and sent to the local Guantanamoish Fun House where he was tortured for information. As far as I know, they didn’t get much out of him, even though waterboarding was allegedly used. Apparently his disciples also ran away and denied any […]
