Category: Me myself and I

Today someone called “Simon” (or similar) called my gf and asked her for my emailaddress. This is very mysterious, because I don’t know any Simon in Austria, and usually i don’t give people my girlfriends telephone number. Of course my girlfriend gave him the wrong (old) emailaddress.
So Simon if you really want to reach me, use Google to find out my real emailadress :-).

Too many FreeBSD entries in a row. Time for something completly different.
My girlfriend’s brother does his best to save the pension system. Last week his seventh (if i counted correctly) child was born. Welcome on planet earth, Carl!

I was tempted doing the quiz for a second time, trying to get the answers right for “.ogg”. This Blog is not paris-hilton-video.blogspot.com and I am not wearing an ugly “pr0nstar” thirt!

As announced, today i joined the community of ill bloggers, again a sore throat.

In case you are interested in moving to Bad Segeberg, the house of my parents where i have been living the largest part of my life is for sale.

When i wanted to buy my student ticket for public transport today, the clerk told me that i am too old. A few days ago I wrote about Fare dodging and now this is reality for me.
There are three possibilities to get to work: First I could use my knowledge about the ticket inspectors and become a professional fare dodger.
The second option is the bike, although my digicam does not support videos like Horst’s and I need to sweat at least 30 minutes to get to university.
The third option is to use day tickets which are cheaper than the The Annual ticket if i use the subway less than 270 days a year.
The third option is to add 60 EUR to my transport budget and buy the The Annual ticket
Hm…..

I went Warwalking today and noticed that there are now 14 WLANs in my neighborhood, most of them secured by Mac-Address-filters or WEP.
Here is a map of my WLAN:

With the second Accesspoint the whole garden is covered and unfortunately it is now visible from the Metropoldi.
The pink color shows the area where you should be able to connect to my WLAN, but I need to collect more data from the neighbor houses, especially the school (no 58-56) and the garage (Hernalser Hauptstr 57).

Weather: Switched on the Heating and put on wool socks.
Work: Tried to hack the Windows Installation on my Workstation (I didn’t boot Windows for more than a year and forgot the Administrator password) but failed.
Computers: jim.arved.de is now my new Mailserver, works great so far.
Reading: Amelie Nothomb – “Cosm�tique de l’ennemi” Great book for all people that haven’t talked to their evil alter-ego recently. Of course i read the german translation, as my french is too bad to read a book. It looks like there is no english translation available yet.
Wikipedia: Uploaded two pictures from Potsdam into the german Wikipedia.
Charlottenhof palace and the Roman Villas in the Park of Sanssouci palace

Yesterday, when I went to bed, I switched on my bedside lamp. A few minutes later i noticed a strange smell and a few moments later i had to open all windows. First I thought my lamp was dying but than i noticed that a fly scrabbled into the halogen lamp and was now grilled.
I really wish you that you never have to smell something like that.
