Am quite impressed with how Real-timeracing has implemented the onboard view along with the live drivers Gives a true feeling of being there
Real-Timeracing: got disqualified 3 times in a row: once for speeding in the pitt (while on the limiter) onces for cutting corners
Going back into the Zolder 10hrs once it is dark
Absolutely not feeling the car nor the road makes it way too diff to play RTR. Ergo, excellent gameplay, very realistic, steerinwheel a MUST
RTR Game rules! The flashing of headlights in your rearview mirror when someone is coming up is excellent. Just need to have a steeringwheel
Off to now try the BMW Z4 on real-timeracing.com. still without the steering wheel.
Going into the 10hrs of Zolder race via Real-timeracing.com with iOpener enabled. Racing in the Mini Cooper S. (without a steeringwheel)

Tnt now delivers to the front door. Literally, on a pedestrian bridge blocking entrance to the building..

Wave invite anyone?

Horde is not very easy to configure if you do not use the out of the box webmail package (which does not work on vhosted sites without SSH)
Holy smokes! I am having a very hard time connecting directly to my DB server... Doesn't time out, just takes forever.

Tedster eating lunch by himself...

Just showed Ted how his wormbank (looks more like a worm than a pig) works. Now his cookie needs to go in as well!

Ted has girthered all his favorite books around himself and now is happily reading!

Ted really can't get enough of his books!

Good to be home again! Had a nice time in Berlin, but nothing beats being home with the family.

Awesome! Ebay Germany still has Raiders in the fridge! Thought that brand was made redundant years ago!

resolving site issues via the phone is not my favorite business... Especially not while in a training
Ready for the last leg of the training. Just had a great lunch here at eBay cafe!

Spending your entire attention span on one subject all day is quite tiring... we still have an hour and a half to go and I am getting tired.
Apparently PING does not deal well with emails from a blackberry...

this should take up through a long delay at the airport.

Nice, fleeing with the colleagues from siteops. They ran off to the business lounge leaving me and Natasha out in the wild.
Curious to see how much delay we'll have due to the fog...

Papa and mama are now laughing, do you think i'm doing something wrong?

The kite up in the air.

Ted playing with his kite

Going out to play in the sun, hopefully show Ted that his kite can fly!
Neither UltraSurf not Hotspot Shield help playing the V pilot on Hulu :( Anyone got a good tip for playing Hulu from NL?

My breakfast: chocolatecake made in a mug in the microwave in 3 minutes! Delicious! For the recipe contact Nadia!

Ted's not trusting his dad while eating his overripe kaki! Sacred i'll take a bite i guess? He still has a lot to learn!
