I'm supposed to be writing a bit more here, but I'm kind of doing things instead. The biggest news I've got is that last Thursday I got our tickets to Japan. Yes, at last I'm going to Japan. That's by far the highlight of the month till now, probably until next weekend in Helsinki. It's Tuska time!

On a less positive note, yesterday Italy got knocked out of Euro 2008. No big surprise but still a bit disappointed considering that they lost on penalties. So now all my investment hopes are on Spain as Netherlands, Croatia and Romania are out too.

If someone wants to have sex whilst watching any Tom Hanks film they should be chemically neutered by the government.

... to describe the case when you like something, then they change it to improve it, but instead of improving it, they spoil it. Like when you really like a bag of chips and they come with an improved recipe and screw it up. Or when Microsoft release a new version of office and nothing is where it used to be. That sort of thing.

I don't know if there's a word to describe this, but maybe there's a phrase or an idiom or something. I'm quite sure there's a slang term for it, but can't seem to find any.

I had almost forgot what a weekend at work was like. Well, I refreshed my memory this weekend as I worked two full days. I had to work up my days off as June is quite a hectic travel month. Going to Lux next weekend and then to Helsinki for the mighty Tuska after a fortnight. Anything new? Not really. Well actually there is something new - but that's classified information :)

You're stealing my history. Said to me when I was quoting a past event in the first person, that didn't happen to me but to the person I was talking to.

Why are you sniffing my funnel?

Error handling is a bit like documentation

Just came back from an important/eventful weekend in Slovakia. The miss had her 30th birthday, and I prepared a small surprise for her. All went very well and according to plan, so at least the 3 months of planning for the event weren't for nothing.

As usual, the pictures are in the pipeline :)
