Nintendo Date: December 27th, 2006 by SiD3WiNDR Categories: Fun, Games, Home I got "Burnout Legends" for our Nintendo DS for christmas from Diana’s sister Wanda. I started playing it this afternoon and after we got back from dinner I haven’t stopped 😉 Only I start to feel it in my thumb… Nintendo thumb! 🙂 We also decided to buy a Wii … Just need to find a store that’s not sold out… 😐 Any pointers? 🙂 |
Europa Park Date: December 27th, 2006 by SiD3WiNDR Categories: Activities, Fun I don’t think you really noticed, but we’ve been in Switzerland since friday 😉 We came by car and had no problems (which is always good), there’s not really a winter condition here yet, snow and ice seem to be reserved for february – march (good again! :)) Yesterday we went to Europa Park (yes, that’s not in Switzerland but in Germany, indeed) with some Swiss family and had a great time. It’s a 2-hour drive from here, but I don’t mind as I like to drive (although it was a bit of an adjustment for me, as I’m used to overtake everyone and everything, and now I had to follow the leader as we didn’t know the way ;-)) Great time, but a bit tiring as well, so we slept quite long 😀 Merry christmas and a happy new year! |
India Date: December 17th, 2006 by SiD3WiNDR Categories: Fun A few weeks ago Diana and me went to see "Bharati" in Vorst Nationaal. Turns out Vorst isn’t a cheap place to go, hard to find a parking spot and seats not that well-suited to big people like me 😉 but overall it was okay – the show itself was great! It was very nice and in the end everyone started dancing as well 🙂 When driving home I got my first alcohol check, but I guess I looked innocent (or sober) enough, the first cop said I had to pull over but when I got there the other said I could drive right through ;)) Last week we went to the an Indian fair at the Centre for Fine Arts (Paleis voor schone kunsten / Bozar). Nice atmosphere, but it wasn’t at all as large as we expected it to be. We didn’t check out the exposition itself, as it costed again extra and we were too late to join there anyway — we came there for the advertised Indian market. It was fun to see the performances, but actually it was pretty small. We had fun nonetheless, a nice saturday evening 🙂 |
IT in Real life vs IT in Movies Date: December 17th, 2006 by SiD3WiNDR Categories: Computing, Fun A great article which I’ve been pointed to a while ago was based on something I wanted to do myself for a while already. Everyone keeps seeing movies where the computers do the strangest things (this includes CSI and others) in the strangest ways where anyone working in IT keeps scratching their heads 😉 Be sure to also check out the first 2 links mentioned in the post for more funny top 10’s: What code DOESN’T do in real life (that it does in the movies) |
