Stieg Larsson is keeping me awake these days; the second novel in the Millenium Trilogy, The Girl Who Played with Fire, is again addictive. And luckily it’s only 568 pages hehe…and as I got the third novel (only 651 pages 😉 ) for my Birthday, I’m pretty sure to miss quite some hours of sleep the coming weeks…zzzzzz

I waited for an extra week as winter never seemed to end (thinking back to the cm’s of fresh snow last Tuesday!), but after a few days of 15-20 degrees with the sun high in the blue sky, today was a safe day to change my winter tires for summer rubber! An easy job…I’m gonna test-drive tomorrow morning to feel the result.
Quite unexpected I was called this morning to participate in the Holmekollstafetten today, a relay race over 18km divided in 15 stages which claims to be worlds biggest relay race! I haven’t trained at all, but I guess I can manage my stage…it’s a whopping uhhh, 390m! 😉 Check out the stagemap, I’m having the 12th stage.
Haha, wish me luck, I’m starting my warm-up!
Raymond Lindquist: “Courage is the power to let go of the familiar.”
I bought an HD-satellite receiver, so we can enjoy TV in full HD now…yes, it DOES make a difference, watching TV in HD is a whole new experience! (and yes, watching TV ain’t THAT important really! 😉 )
It’s Liberation Day in NL today and that means that my dad is having his Birthday…uhh, or was it the other way around? 😉
It’s a quite special one for him this year: his 65th which means that he is ‘officially’ retired now! (even though he stopped worked some years ago) 😉
I can recommend George Carlin’s performances to anyone, they are truly superb! This one puts Global Climate change and the ‘save the planet’ movement in perspective…;)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dyxuVFzKypUYay! Finally there is a jailbreak available for my iPhone (3GS with new bootrom)! The tool is called Spirit, developed by iPhone hacker Comex who released it today!
Although I did ‘discover’ in the last months that I did not need a jailbreak as much as I expected (I *lived* on the alternative Cydia Apps on my previous first-gen iPhone), most of the Apps I ‘needed’ are in some form actually available in the Appstore. There are some Apps that do make a difference though; SBSettings and Categories for instance…hehe, those make my iPhone experience even better!! 😉
Eckhart Tolle: “Realize deeply that the present moment is all you ever have.”
We celebrated Queensday for the Norwegian dutchheads today (April 30 is no day off here, so we’re stuck to the weekend 🙁 ). The event took place at Trollvannstua (which by the way has its own, norwegian, Wikipedia page!). The place run by Robbert, another cheesehead. 😉 Heaps of fun, loads of people dressed up like orange clowns ;), so everything was as it should be on Queensday! (except for the weather…jeez, it even snowed!!)
I flew to NL late afternoon and crashed at Robbert’s place; it’s my first time in his (terrific!) new appartment, coolio!
