It's always sunny in Philadelphia! This series is good, and by good I mean really really really good. It's about a group of 4 friends in their late 20s who run an unsuccessful Irish bar in Philadelphia (duh!). This series has a wicked sense of humour and it takes the piss out of topics like racism, abortion, guns, disable people, etc. You get the idea. Very unclean fun ... just my type of humour! I restrained myself to watch the first series over two days but it was very difficult.

I clicked on a link for Juno II and found a treasure trove of other great stuff.

Lost
Desperate Housewives
Sluts and the City

Just got back from a wedding weekend break in Warsaw. All the hype that I heard about Polish weddings was well justified, and even though my expectations were high they were completely satisfied. Warsaw itself wasn't the major attraction though, the place is rather dull and the weather didn't help make it any better. I will write a bit more about the Warsaw trip when I upload the pictures.

In the mean time I'm rather busy writing a literature review on Social Network Visualization, interesting but quite time consuming. Hopefully I'll be back to normal in a week's time.

I'm feeling like a glow worm with a broken bulb.

cool, wedding,... do you know the bride and broom?

This week is a bit low on e-mail quotes recieved but don't worry I found a site full of quotes (via Tom's Blog)

I want Zoe!!!! Ohhh how I miss my loveables!

It's that time of the year when I get the urge to buy a new gadget. This time (like always) it's a gadget that I need - a new camera. I'm torn again on whether to get an SLR or not. Will I carry an SLR around as much as I would a smaller camera, and would it be worth the investment? Any suggestions?

Update (13-Apr-2008)
After UNcareful consideration and a rush of impulsive judgement, I got the Canon S5 IS hoping that it'll arrive before going to Warsaw next Wednesday. I had a Canon S2 before it mysteriously stopped working and was very happy with it, so I thought I'd give the newer model a try. Getting a new camera was the same price as fixing the broken one. Thanks to R I managed to get a very good price for it on ebay from DigitalRev. I guess the DSLR has to wait. Btw, thanks for your suggestions.

After 3 days of packing I finally moved house last Tuesday. I reached that point where things could no longer fit in the matchbox sized room so I had to expand. The amount of stuff I managed to collect in these two years here is staggering.

Everything doubled, the bed, the bathroom, desks and cupboards too. I even managed to place my TV which I never previously used into the room. Not that I watch loads of telly but now I've got a place where my little Latvian gargoyle can stand (need a name for him - any suggestions?)

Lord Hiisi really liked the new room. He spent the whole day exploring the new surroundings when we move in. He also had a clean vivarium which he shortly after popped in.

The only thing that degraded was the speed of the internet connection. Moved from 2Mbs to 1Mbs. the state of the ISP's here in Ireland is far from optimal. Even the dot is introducing 10Mbs connections and here the norm is still 1-4 Mbs. This is supposed to be one of the most developed countries for christsake.

I get many pyrotechnic ideas what to do with Alf's bedsheets

Do you know what happened ... I dropped my pink mobile phone in the lift shaft

Those skirts, they destroy the shape of the body

women are like wolves, if you want a wolf you have to trap it; you have to sneer it, and then you have to love it.
