It’s incredible. She was here around with us, working with us. Managing the career of people. Of Software Engineer like me. English: controlled, polite but sociable and engaged and enthusiast in her job. Vomiting. Strong Vomiting. Anyone assumed was just a Virus of the Flue a little bit stronger than usual. My Engineering Manager’s email of yesterday: What Suzanne thought was the sickness and vomiting bug actually turned out to be a small brain haemorrhage when she went to A&E last Wednesday night. Martin, Suzanne’s husband, called on Thursday to let me know what was happening and indicated at that time that Suzanne would require an operation. On talking to him yesterday it transpired that Suzanne has had a subsequent haemorrhage on Sunday night…. ...

Sounds impossible? Depends on WHERE you get bored. Please, do do it in the [en:House of Parliament]. [en:LONDON] (AFP) - [en:Queen Elizabeth II]’s speech in the [en:British Parliament] Tuesday may have been routine but at least nobody got bored to death. That would have been against the law. Dying in parliament is an offence and is also by far the most absurd law in [en:Britain], according to a survey of nearly 4,000 people by a television channel showing a legal drama series. And though the lords were clad in their red and white ermine cloaks and ambassadors from around the world wore colourful national costumes, at least nobody turned up in a suit of armour. Illegal. Other rules deemed utterly stupid included one that permits a pregnant woman to urinate in a policeman’s hat and murdering bow-and-arrow-carrying Scotsmen within the city walls of York, northern England. A law stating that in [en:Liverpool], only a clerk in a tropical fish store is allowed to be publicly topless, was also ridiculous, said a poll of 3,931 people for UKTV Gold television out Tuesday. Nearly half of those surveyed admitted to breaking the ban on eating mince pies on Christmas Day, which dates back to the 17th century and was originally designed to outlaw gluttony during the rule of the Puritan [en:Oliver Crowmell]. The laws and other regulations were culled from published research into ancient legislation that has never been repealed although subsequent statutes have rendered them obsolete. Respondents were given a shortlist and asked to vote. Most ridiculous British law: ...

After a lot of unmotivated comments (for the quality of the Movie itself) about my post about Domino Harvey, I finally have another Domino to talk about. This is an ads going on in the UK TV. It’s from Guinness, one of the most strong-tasty (I say “not very much good tasty”), beer that you can find in any pub here. But the advert is very very good ;) Title: Guinness Tipping Point Domino advert Abstract: New Guinness Advert - only previously available to those who solved the puzzles on the Guinness website! ...

Taipei 101: The tallest building in the world since 2004 This is my 101 days. Writing a post on the 100 (50 * 2) was just too obvious ;) A lot of things are changed, and a lot are still changing. My life is stable like an Elephant on the point of a needle. The Big City has giving a lot to my “maturation process” as Software Engineer, but it’s not just gold because it sparkle, is it? But it worth it. We come out of University thinking “we deserve the best”, but we don’t. At least, we don’t yet. I’m figuring out, every day much more clearly, that University is just a gym, and whatever we did there, it is just not enough for the business world. ...

There was once a man who had 2 horses, but he couldn’t tell them apart. So he cut the tail off one, but it didn’t work, because it grew again. So he cut the mane off one, but it didn’t work, because it grew again. Then he misured them, and he found that the black hourse was 4cm shorter than the white horse. -_- P.S. This “joke” was used (in an interesting teaching way) during my first lesson for the ESOL L1 course in the [en:Southwark College], just started today. P.P.S. I know: it’s a shame to have a course in Saturday, at 9:30, when you are supposed to sleep. But, what can I do?

From [en:Stephen_Fry|Wikipedia]: Stephen John Fry (born 24 August 1957) is an English comedian, writer, actor, novelist, filmmaker and television personality. The former comedy collaborator of [en:Hugh Laurie], he is also the host of the television panel game [en:QI]. I like this man. I discovered him thanks to Laurie, and reading and watching him I discovered that he is great on his own. Fry and his FryPhone (is not my idea: is him) ...

Update 2007-09-14: I re-listed it on eBay because they contacted me and said that I’ll receive my money for the 2 auction back. As usual, eBay has a great Customer Care (or, at least, this is my present and past experience about that). Update 2007-09-12: I sold it twice. Twice was a spoof/fake. :( A fake account on eBay bought it with the option “Buy Now”. Then he asked to me to send the product in Africa (Nigeria) and asked to me to pay with PayPal. In the beginning I thought it was strange… but with the money, I would sell also in Nicaragua. ...

Update 10th of Sep 2007: The name of the Restaurant is “Sig. Grilli - Ristorante Pizzeria” in 40 Goodge Street, London W1. I wrote a review about it in Italian ;) It was parked in Tottenham Court Road. We were just out of an Italian Restaurant (£25.00 each… for a beef steak and House’s Red Wine!!!)… when I saw it: It’s beautiful, isn’t it? The mythic [en:Volkswagen] [en:VW_Type_2|Type 2 (aka Transporter)]!!! Another one follow. ...

I went inside the store (www.halfords.com) to choose a Town&Trial Bike (also known as Touring Byke): just because I have to go around “a city”. But when I saw her I forgot about any “stupid-little-tiny-weels-bike” and just loved her at first sight! Apollo FS.26 SE Mens 20" Full Suspension Mountain Bike I’ll go to bring her with me on Sunday: we will go around London just for fun. I hope we will stay together forever. And that she will like my weight. And… ...
