Cooking...

Wondering what I'll have for dinner... decisions, decisions...

Found a cute site with some portuguese recipes... thinking about a variant of spaghetti though... talk about lack of imagination :)

Other than that, not much to do .. wondering if I'll really get my new car after tomorrow after all.. we'll see .. keep your fingers crossed, I'll only believe it when I have the keys on my hand.. :P

Ongoing Spam battle :)

Hi .. another nice site... this is becoming a really nifty bookmark collection ! :)

SPAM ! :P

Hi there!

Between a bunch of stuff, there is a cute thing you can search .. SPF... no, it's not "Shortest Path First"... :) (ok, a more readeable description, of Open SPF ;) )

Nifty little thing about SPAM.. who knows, maybe it works... :P

Check it here: http://spf.pobox.com

Firefox, Thunderbird & Mozilla

Hi ..

Been using Mozilla Firefox for a while now .. except for the ocasional "I need IE" page. And by the way, it's behaving amazingly well :)

As for Thunderbird it's the mail reader from Mozilla.. best anti-spam filter I've seen yet, even if it takes a week or two for coaching it.

Mozilla is the full featured thing... It includes everything :)

Take a look :)

bored...

Hi back ..

2 posts in the same week.. wow...

Well, true ...

Just found that the portuguese government is about to spens 100 million Euro on the stock market .. never mind that we lack airplanes to fight Summer fires, that a lawsuit takes at least 3 oer 4 years to be solved in this country, and all that... :P

Anyway, Portugal beat Paraguay, 5-0, on the Olypic National Teams Soccer game last night. Not bad...

Heard there was only one guy selling tickets too.. wonder if the others drew straws to see who would go to the game...

Ah well.. later

Hello!

I just noticed, it has been about a year, since I wrote in this blog.. and a hell of a lot happened since then... not that I'll get into most the details, I guess, people who know me know I sort of get disgrunted talking about myself :)

I changed jobs, met new people, done new things, saw friends getting married and divorced, and have children, changed minds on a few things, got even more sure on other things...

Chenged jobs, travelled, met new people while travelling, saw Portugal beat in the final of the Euro 2004 by a Greek side that played "lets make fouls and defend" (not that they haven't done it well, mind you, but I'd rather have lost to 12 other sides, exceptions being Lithuania, Switzerland and Bulgaria...).

But I saw people take pride in being Portuguese, wich, for a change, was nice.

I saw a government being replaced (not entirely to my satisfaction, I'd rather most of the ministers to have stayed ...), and I'm seeing fires burning again...

I bought a car, and became a bit of a student again, while I attended my Cisco ICND classes. Seems more to come in September.

I have a girlfriend again, wich is something I hadn't in a while, and still sort of getting used to the idea again...

And, as someone told me yesterday... I'm (still) crazy after all this year :)

Cheers :)
