I love deadlines...

... I like the whooshing sound as they fly by (Douglas Adams).
Haven't written anything lately. Two reasons. First, nothing really stupid happened to me, second I am very busy writing up my thesis at the moment. Deadline is the 29th, so I hope, that I don't hear the whooshing sound :-)

I am really thinking of de-restricting my scooter. I was overtaken by a bike, and I mean bike not motorbike. Ok, we were going downhill, I was already going 60 km/h and he was a really sporty guy (wearing lycras :o) , however, it really hurt. What made me feel a little bit better was that I overtook a Porsche Carrera two days later. Ok, it was in a long queue going 10 km/h but it's the overtaking event that counts, isn't it?

Band practice tomorrow, I really enjoy playing in a band again. I don't think we'll ever make money out of it, but it is great fun. We agreed to practice three songs currently:
Knocking on heaven's door by Guns N Roses
Better do better by Hard-fi
Song 2 by Blur
Guns N Roses' "Appetite for destruction" was the very first music album I ever owned and Song 2 really reminds me of the time when I was 16 and started to go clubbing. Music always reminds my of the time and place where I heard it first. I should have "Soundtrack of my life" :-)

Ok, back to work now, I can already hear the whooshing...
