En ålderstigen släkting kommer svartklädd
ut från Elimkapellet.
Säg att du brukar tänka på henne
när du onanerar!
Hon kan behöva lite uppmuntran.

ventilation system has developed an annoying whine

On the airport bus to Stockholm. Viking packed off for a week at his grandparents. Feels strange

Man this bus is uncomfortably warm

Contributing to the current Twitter overcapacity problem by twittering about it. Meta-fail

The music I like the most is more than 20 years old, or might as well be

I wonder if the fly travelling with me on the bus is a harbinger of a global pandemic. That would kinda suck

Stuck at Haga in a traffic queue. This never happens with the train

Oh IM, where art thou?

In queue for a double kabanoss from Günthers

Finally got to order, 2 helpings of the hot sauce, strong mustard und saurkraut!

I find it “amusing” that Outlook hangs while searching through mails. That is, if “amusing” is a synonym to “bollocks” in your language

what a semi! great play by Turkey by the Germans won in the end. Here’s hoping Russia will win tomorrow!

still no IM, I feel like someone waiting for Godot (or rather, the Giro)

O Canon repair person, where are thou?

now the Swedish anti-piracy group thinks the French 3-strikes law against filesharers is “basically good”

fucking Swedish anti-piracy group makes me pretty mad

ever since 1789, no good political innovation has come out of France…

Eating dinner in Nyköping after scoping out apartments

Returning the car, doesn’t look as if we used quite as much petrol this time

suspecting Alastair Reynold’s “House of Suns” is a previously refused work now published to take advantage of his current status

Spain-France is on, least interesting of the quarterfinals if you ask me

wicked stink of polyvinyl chloride from the giant inflatable hand Viking got in his Maxbox

penalties are cheesy but great TV

tweets for 2008-06-21

talking to the taxman, but not about poetry

I’ve just re-enabled TwitterSync on Facebook, this is a test of the functionality

hmm TwitterSync can’t update my Facebook status, reverting to the “official” Twitter FB app

Viking: “Why do they have goalies? It’s too hard with them!”

how the f*ck did I end up with 120 “friends” on Facebook?

Go Russia!

Viking’s room is the messiest ever

sniggering at outdated ads still celebrating the Swedish team

what an amazing goal!

RUSSIA!

ok I’m betting Russia - Turkey in the final. This is football as it should be!

ouch toothache :(

Oravcle Client install, happy happy joy joy. Ugliest fscking app on the planet

removing Microsoft SMS console wiped out large parts of my programs, now trying Windows restore

OK restore didn’t work (BIG surprise) so now I’m committed to Vista

making a list of all the crap I need to reinstall in Vista

Vista: “Your computer will restart several times during installation” – WTF

Vista up and running, facing an endless list of re-installs

going for Firefox 3

still can’t believe the amount of MS programs that still require you to be an administrator to install them

STOP STEALING MY FOCUS

ok so loading a CD freezes my computer

I have officially joined the ranks of Windows Vista haters. What a fucking load of stinking faeces this is

that’s it, I’m reinstalling Windows XP

looking more and more as if the new FRA law is a stalking horse for detecting copyright infringment

against my better judgement, I’m trying Vista again

screw you guys, I’m going home

Twitter IM is taunting me… I get messages, but I cannot post. Please Twitter, I promise to learn Rails, pretty please???

reading the TTYtter manpage, I think it should be quite possible to make the output nicer as you can get the stuff in JSON
