Bumpy ride - some chit-chat

Sunday Apr 24 2005

Here I am again... back from the Pareto 'Social', the yearly weekend with fun activities from work. We had a great time except for the fact that my girlfriend was launched and went airborne after driving into a gutter while we were driving quads. She broke two bones so I guess I'm gonna be a part-time nurse for quite a while. It could have been much worse though so I'm happy she's relatively ok given the circumstances.

I'll be moving to a new appartment in Utrecht in 1.5 weeks time. This combined with an immobilized girlfriend could cause updates on the site to be kinda slow for a while. I'll try to do my best though!

On the nerdry field I just read an article called Tiger's Tale in Time Magazine on Apple's new upcoming operating system Tiger. I can't wait to get my hands on this marvellous OS which is already being dubbed a 'Longhorn killer' while Longhorn won't even be out for a year or so.

Also in the quickies: Olia Liana, responsible for the excellent article on the history of the web and web page design I posted about earlier, emailed me about a $1000 dollar page contest for personal homepages. There's some cash to earn here so take a look!

Peace,

Marco

P.S: Everyone from the Pareto gang thanks for a great weekend! It was superb even though my girlfriend had to take some damage.
