It is that time of year again. You leave for work and you try to act like nothing is new, but then someone finds out and sends out an e-mail to everyone in a radius of too many square miles to count, and you know you won`t be able to get any work done...again.
A new milestone is set. Not in your project at work nor in your relationship, but on your nice set of growth rings. It marks the half way to 50, and you feel you need to speed up on every front to get your agenda cleared before next mark is closing up on you. But then again, I might be 25, but I am for sure going on 18. So it might not be that bad after all.

I have been home late quite a few evenings from work lately, so haven`t had much time to work on the page, but some happy news from my real job though. I got my contract now. So I am finally permanent at Get now. That was an enormous relief for me. So maybe I get some time to relax my soul now.

Finaly I got my self a connection in the new appartment here in Norway. And on top of that I got my self a new host for this web page. Which in the end means I need to change a few things for the web page to work as it should be. And while I am on to that, why not throw in some new functionality while I am at it.
I will upload pictures from the last 2-3 months, as well as adding new script to the page, which in the end will mean some down time, and some links will not work at all time. Still hope you will stick around until everything is up and going again. Wish me luck, I think I`ll need it.

Then my last weekend in Geneva was over. But in fact I didn`t spend it in Geneva nor Switzerland at all. Ludovic opened up his home for us, and invited us to France. We had excelent weather , lots of good food , and drinks . I couldn`t ask for a better end of my stay here in Geneva then this, except that France beat Brazil in the World cup. Thanks to you Ludo, and everyone that joined us this weekend. I hope to see you all again some time in the future.
For the rest of the pictures you can find them in my album section.

3 laws for you and your bus::

Some mornings it really feel like you should have stayed in bed. You know you have a tight agenda. But you know you can make it. But then you forgot about all those things that can go wrong.
I could list a million things that didn’t go as they should today. But they are random, and work related most of them, and would be just a boring list of excuses. Something I don’t like to come with. But one think strikes me as particularly odd. And that is the laws on how buses works. It seems to happen to me every time. No matter what city, or country I am in. Maybe it is just me. Maybe it really is a law about this. Well lets have a look at them.
1. If you are one minute late to the bus, then the bus was 100% precise and has already left. But more interestingly, the next one will for sure not be on time.
2. When you are standing there waiting. There will always drive one bus in the other direction before one pass you in your direction. If there is more then just your bus-number that stops on that bus stop, then you can be sure there will be at least 2-3 busses before one of yours drops by.
3. If you need to do a transfer. Lets say from bus 28 to bus 9. And at the transfer point your bus is supposed to be there 1-2 min before bus 9. Then you can be sure that your bus is 2-3 minutes late, but bus 9 is exactly on time.
Now this might just be me. Or that I just notice these days more then others. But to me it seems like every time I take the bus to meet friends or what ever and I have a tight schedule, then I have to come up with an excuse like I missed the transfer or the bus was late. Is it just me? Please say it is not just me….

This is old news to be honest, but I never uploaded the pictures for some reason. Since I am now getting close to the end of my contract, I need to move on, and cleaning up in CERN pictures is one of the tasks on my list. So here I present to you pictures from when me and some of my friends and others visited the Atlas detector . So enjoy the pictures, I at least enjoyed the visit.

When you think you are on top of it. And everything goes your way. Look back, did you forget something? Is your suddenly success not gained because you failed to see what was really going on?

Was prioritizing wrong? Was it me? Was it him? Had I forgotten who I was, or where I came from? Maybe time to sit down and start thinking again. What is really important in your life.
We want you:

I got a phone call from my dad yesterday. It was a letter from ITU in Denmark. He opened it up, and read it up load. And it was a big yes. I am not officially accepted at ITU for “MSc IT, Media Technology and Games, Technology”.
So if nothing big happen in the next 6-8 weeks. I guess I will move on from Geneva to Copenhagen. And game programmer I will become. It has been a dream a long time, and it seems like it will happen now. But as always with me. I go with the wind. You never know before I am sitting there on the bench.

I have heard about others getting this before. But untill now I didn`t think it was that widely spread. But I must have been mistaken. Came into work today, and had left MSN on after using it here on sunday afternoon. And two new persons had tried to contact me.
They where not on my list, and I got a pop up dialog asking me if I wanted to allow messages from everyone that where not on my Block list, or non of them. Where was the "allow only one time" option?
Well, since I was curious. I allowed them to talk to me. And what could I expect in stead of just spam ? And more spam ?
Well guess I can conclude with that you are not safe from spam in any way. Tv, radio, cell phones, flyers handed out to you on the street, and now also MSN. Whats up next?

Friend = C# + Linux;:

One of my friends have in the last weeks fallen in love with Linux, after been using Windows all his life. But that is not how I know him. We have been members of the same forum way too long, and also done one of the coolest applications ever in the history together. Namely DoomSharp .
We could only do this because of his (and of course mine ;)) C# skills, but now he has gone over to the enemy. Or has he? With Mono he can still compile his C# applications, and they will still run on Windows. Now how cool isn`t that.
So what is a better thing to do, then start to write about how this works out. And it is just that Adam Ward has started to do in his new blog. So if you want to read about cool cross platform C# tricks and how he is doing in Linux, then I suggest you bookmark his home page. I have added him to del.icio.us already.
