Flevo en nog een heleboel andere zaken..
Terwijl het gros van de Nederlanders ergens aan een strand of in een zwembad liggen te bakken in de zon, wordt er hier druk gewerkt. Dat komt omdat het bijna tijd is voor het Xnoizz Flevo Festival. Ik en met mij waarschijnlijk nog meer Flevoaddicts houden het lekker ouderwets op flevo! Maar goed naar een bewogen jaar waarin veel is gebeurd gaat het dan toch door! Maar door alle gebeurtenissen is een en ander wat later op gang gekomen dan normaal. Dus ik lig niet op een strand, ga ook niet naar de UK mijn favoriete land maar werk me helemaal suf. Programmaboekjes, timetables, decor, passen en meer van dat soort leuke klussen. En verder rond ik ook nog een tijdschrift af, bouw wat sites en... PFFFFF Twitter ik ook nog, probeer te bloggen en houd mijn andere sociale netwerken bij. Haha maar een aantal zijn gekoppeld aan mijn Twitter dus dat gaat helemaal vanzelf. Maar goed deze week ook veel klussen in de avonduren om even de berg weg te werken. ATCOED en EELS helpen me de dag en avond door! Nu is het tijd voor rust, biertje en daarna een welverdiend slaapje.

Humor
Het onderstaande kreeg ik net binnen en als "groot fan" van Mickey soft kom ik er erg om lachen. Ik hoop dat jullie dat met mij kunnen.
At a recent computer expo (COMDEX), Bill Gates reportedly compared the
computer industry with the auto industry and stated,
'If GM had kept up with technology like the computer industry has, we
would all be driving $25 cars that got 1,000 miles to the gallon.'
In response to Bill's comments, General Motors issued a press release stating:
If GM had developed technology like Microsoft, we would all be driving
cars with the following characteristics (and I just love this part):
1. For no reason whatsoever, your car would crash........Twice a day.
2.. Every time they repainted the lines in the road, you would have to
buy a new car.
3. Occasionally your car would die on the freeway for no reason. You
would have to pull to the side of the road, close all of the windows,
shut off the car, restart it, and reopen the windows before you could
continue. For some reason you would simply accept this.
4. Occasionally, executing a maneuver such as a left turn would cause
your car to shut down and refuse to restart, in which case you would
have to reinstall the engine.
5. Macintosh would make a car that was powered by the sun, was
reliable, five times as fast and twice as easy to drive - but would
run on only five percent of the roads.
6. The oil, water temperature, and alternator warning lights would all
be replaced by a single 'This Car Has Performed An Illegal Operation'
warning light.
I love the next one!!!
7. The airbag system would ask 'Are you sure?' before deploying.
8. Occasionally, for no reason whatsoever, your car would lock you out
and refuse to let you in until you simultaneously lifted the door
handle, turned the key and grabbed hold of the radio antenna.
9. Every time a new car was introduced car buyers would have to learn
how to drive all over again because none of the controls would operate
in the same manner as the old car.
10. You'd have to press the 'Start' button to turn the engine off.
PS - I'd like to add that when all else fails, you could call
'customer service' in some foreign country and be instructed in some
foreign language how to fix your car yourself!!!!
