Skype's Timing

It usually takes a while until Skype changes the status of contacts from online to offline and vice versa. Today, Manish passed my desk saying: "I've to go, I see you guys later in the afternoon" and walked out the door. As soon as the office door closed, a Skype message popped up: "Manish has gone offline". I was impressed!

Spider Pig, Spider Pig...

Finished reading...

Finally, about 88 hours after the world speed reading champion Anne Jones turned over to the last page

Speed reader and Potter fan Anne Jones was one of the first to finish the book, reading more than 4,000 words a minute...

I finished reading the last Harry Potter book "... and the Deathly Hallows".

I'm glad, I managed to avoid reading about the ending beforehand. So many websites, news articles or radio shows out there that spoiled it for many people. I haven't visited any news sites apart from sport for the last three days. I would have been really pissed off, if I had read about it!

Of course, I won't spoil it for anybody. Read the book or, in case you haven't, start to read the series! It's worth it...

A beautiful morning needs...

... a car standing on your foot. Happened to me this morning while I was waiting in a car queue with the scooter. A woman rolled forwards and stopped the car on my foot. Although, it didn't hurt, because not the full weight was on my foot, it was enough weight to keep me from pulling away my foot. I was just afraid that she might roll forward again, so I tried to advise her of the fact that she was standing on my foot by knocking on her engine bonnet, but still it took some time until she noticed me and rolled back (before that she was just staring into space which was a bit scary...). Good thing, I wasn't wearing my white shoes... ;-)
