Stuff Michael Meeks is doing

|
This is my (in)activity log. You might like to visit my employer
Novell which is an amazing company, and also
Dell who in days of yore provided me with a
free laptop for Gnome development / conferences.
Also if you have the time to read this sort of stuff you could enlighten
yourself by going to Unraveling Wittgenstein's net or if
you are feeling objectionable perhaps here.

- Up early, off to the harbour, bought tickets for
whale watching. Having been warned of sea sickness, amazed at
how calm (pancake - like) the sea was. Rocketed over it in
a rather funky stainless steel catemaran with two great
impellers at the back throwing water backwards at a great rate
of knots.
- Finally found some whales, hump-backs, a good way
down the coast near cape cod. Saw them feeding, and poking their
mouths out of the water full of fish, banging the water with their
tails, and spouting. Mother and child, very beautiful.
- Back to Lechmere and then the Mall, lunch at the
cheescake factory, onto buying trousers (NB. not pants) and
a DVD (12 monkeys). Eyed up the wavelan stuff, base station and
cards. Since the 72Mbps stuff is filtering in at the high end I'm
hoping the slower stuff will drop in price soon.
- Home, watched the DVD, lazed around. Jon turned up,
had our cheescake with him, and out to CBC. J' got her friend
Gauri from her hotel nearby and had a nice drink / chat.
- Back to bed, put the washing on, read some Calvin
and Hobbes [ J's present, very good ], sleep.
In case it's not painfully obvious: the reflections reflected here are my
own; mine, all mine ! and don't reflect the views of Novell, The
Lithuanian Gov't or Arnold Schwarzenegger. It's also important to
realise that I'm not in on the Swedish Conspiracy.
Occasionally people ask for formal photos for conferences,
bio.
or fun.
