My personal view on things

Fourteen Things That It Took Me Over 50 Years To Learn - by Dave Barry

  1. Never, under any circumstances, take a sleeping pill and a laxative on the same night.

  2. If you had to identify, in one word, the reason why the human race has not achieved, and never will achieve, its full potential, that word would be “meetings.”

  3. There is a very fine line between “hobby” and “mental illness.”

  4. People who want to share their religious views with you almost never want you to share yours with them.


Buissnes Talk ... Weihnachten fuer geschaeftsleute

Message from the CEO (Christmas Event Organizer):

Dr. J. Christus v. Bethlehem:

Also Kinder, ich bin jetzt in Urlaub. Aller Vorausicht nach bin ich bis Weihnachten wieder da, aber die Vorbereitungen darauf sollten natürlich jetzt schon loslaufen:

Status: Wie Weihnachten 2005 im Internet gezeigt hat, heißt Weihnachten nicht mehr Weihnachten, sondern X-mas, also muss der Weihnachtsmann entsprechend ab jetzt X-man heißen!

Da X-mas 2006 quasi schon vor der Tür steht, ist es spätestens seit Oktober höchste Zeit, mit der Weihnachtsvorbereitung zu beginnen – Verzeihung – seit Oktober ist es höchste Zeit, mit dem Weihnachts- roll-out zu starten und die Christmas-Mailing-Action just in time vorzubereiten.


Addicted to The Simpsons?

simpsons Well what do you say to this? Today after watching over 10 episodes of Simpsons (in which I forgot to turn on my mobile, didn’t check my server and it really did crash … well what would homer say? Doh), I just received a mail (no clue to which list I subscribed, but thanks god I did it ) about the Movie, well I do know about the movie since quite a while and have seen the teaser, but now the Trailer has been released! Go and see it on http://www.thesimpsons.com/ Well I sure du hope they will sell doughnuts instead of Popcorn at the movie. So and instead of reading my apache security book to prevent further crashes on the server … I am going to watch more simpsons episodes


fixing problems

An elderly lady phoned Verizon to report that her telephone failed to ring when her friends called – and that on the few occasions when it did ring, her pet dog always barked right before the phone rang.

The telephone repairman proceeded to the scene, curious to see this psychic dog or senile elderly lady.  He climbed a nearby telephone pole, hooked in his test set, and dialed the subscriber’s house.


How to wake up by 6:30 every morning ... for the serious procrastinator

Just read this in Karanet. I think I will have to try this next Monday when I have to wake up REAL early to catch a train to Budapest at 6 in the morning

The plan

Make sure your PC is in your bedroom with the monitor pointed at such an angle that you can see the screen perfectly. Go to the bios of your pc. Set your PC to startup automatically by 6:30a.m. Set your alarm clock to startup by 6:20a.m. Set your alarm clock to Radio, preferably, talk radio, not music radio. Put it at the far end of your room. Download a whole bunch of stand-up comedy routines that you have not watched. Make a link to one of them in your autostart menu. Set VLC so that it startsup in fullscreen mode. Strategically place bread and the juice beside your bed. By 9pm on the first day, swallow one of the sleeping tablets. As an optional step, put on some Jenna and squeeze out some tadpoles.


Borat, go and see it :)

Well I have to say at some scenes I kind of expected more from Borat, nevertheless it was a great movie and worth being seen. As I have seen the trailer I was already sure that Borat his home village was NOT from Kazakhstan, it was filmed in Romania. Not only that the people, the village and everything else looks really Romanian, I have also found an interview which confirms this.

Wieviele DSL-Router braucht ein Mensch?

Wieviele DSL-Router braucht ein Mensch? Deutsche Telekom liefert insgesamt 552 DSL-Router an Privathaushalt Manchmal muss es einfach etwas mehr sein, hat sich die Deutsche Telekom womöglich gedacht. Eine Privatperson hatte einen DSL-Anschluss bei dem rosa Riesen bestellt und erhielt statt eines DSL-Routers gleich 552 Exemplare. Kamen die ersten 56 DSL-Router noch per Post, wurden die restlichen 496 Geräte mit einem Schlag per Lkw geliefert. Die in Nordrhein-Westfalen beheimatete Telekom-Kundin bestellte kürzlich einen DSL-Anschluss als Ergänzung zu dem bestehenden ISDN-Anschluss. Zunächst erhielt sie aber den Hinweis, dass möglicherweise nicht genügend DSL-Router zur Verfügung stünden, berichtet der Kölner Stadtanzeiger. Wie sich bald zeigte, waren diese Sorgen mehr als unbegründet. Zunächst erhielt die Telekom-Kundin ein Paket mit DSL-Router samt Splitter. Die zweite Postlieferung mit fünf weiteren Routern hat sie umgehend an die Deutsche Telekom zurückgeschickt. Einige Tage später folgten dann fünf Paketsendungen mit insgesamt 50 DSL-Routern, die gleichfalls unverzüglich an den rosa Riesen zurückgingen. Allerdings war es da wohl schon zu spät, die Lkw-Lieferung mit nochmals 496 DSL-Routern aufzuhalten, die einige Tage später mit fünf Paletten vor dem Haus der Privatkundin stand. Gegenüber der Zeitung begründete die Deutsche Telekom den Fehler damit, dass ein Telekom-Mitarbeiter die Produktbezeichnung für den Router (Speedport 501) in das Feld mit der Liefermenge eingetragen habe. Allerdings bleibt damit schleierhaft, wie es zu der Fehllieferung der übrigen 51 Router gekommen ist. Quelle:
