No, those are not the essential things in life… It’s what kept me busy today though.
I started out today by doing lots of stuff in front the computer, from reviewing documents, to setting up training material, to preparing presentations and more stuff like that. At 4.30 I kind of was a bit tired of it […]

Great session at Slufter beach today + some music
Published September 7th, 2008 in At home. 0 CommentsToday I had a great session at Slufter. I’d never been there before. This spot is close to the ports of Rotterdam, so has a pretty industrial feel to it. There are some waves, areas with chop and also some very shallow and butter flat water.
There’s also a small sandbar quite close by and with […]
I saw Factory Girl yesterday. For some reason the movie is almost two years old, but has never been released in the Netherlands yet. This weekend it went on display in the Louis Hartlooper cinema in Utrecht. The movie tells the story of Edie Sedgwick who travels from Cambridge to New York and ends up […]
I updated the firmware of my camera (Pentax K10D) yesterday night. All of a sudden, the AF of my new lens was about 4 times as fast. I wondered why that was and after searching for a bit, I found out: only the 1.30 firmware supports the fast AF drive my new lense has. So, […]
Just yesterday I received my DVD box with all episodes of Buurman and Buurman. For those in Holland, if you’ve never seen Buurman and Buurman you really should. It’s a Czech puppet series, all filmed in stop motion.
Buurman and Buurman literally translates to Neighbor and Neighbor and that’s exactly what it’s about: two neighbors doing […]
Hey, today I’ve turned 30, 1 month and 6 days. Somebody asked for my age today and for the first time I mistakenly said 29. Then I corrected myself and for some reason, I didn’t like doing that… Yeah I know, it’s nothing turning 30, it’s just like any other birthday… The thing is, you […]
I finally finished reading One Big Damn Puzzler by John Harding. It’s about a lawyer ending up on a tropical island where he comes across a native tribe. Some of the tribespeople have lost legs, arms or are otherwise disabled because of mines, left by American and the lawyer is there to start getting the […]
Phew… My last.fm profile looks a little better now. I recently started using last.fm again. Instead of Christina Aguilera, Kelly Clarkson and other crap, it now shows Pulp, DJ Shadow and other slightly more interesting music
I started using Last.fm again a while ago, but every time I look at my profile, it shows some really weird data. Look at the following radio station that includes Christina Aguilera, Dido, Paris Hilton and Natalie Imbruglia. Now I have a broad taste for various kinds of music, but Paris Hilton certainly isn’t part […]
A while ago, I was kiting with Marc and some others and the winds were not good enough for the 8sqm. That was when I had to get the 12sqm again and I hate that kite. It’s slow, it’s got pulleys and it’s got all kinds of other stuff I don’t like (airlock valves and […]
