Besviken på Mikael Persbrandt
2012-05-10 18:46:00 Har ni sett Hamilton - I nationens intresse? Om inte: Gör inte det! T o m Persbrandt var dålig i den. Värst var dock hon som log som ett jävla fån hela tiden (när hon skulle vara seriös?). Vad fan?! Jag var ändå beredd på att den skulle vara dålig eftersom Danne och Izza beskrev den som "svensk" och "spion", men den var sämre än så. Jag sa nej direkt, men ändrade mig när dom sa att Mikael Persbrandt var med. Det borde jag inte ha gjort. Visst hände det grejer, men nej... Sjukt dålig och meningslös!Om ni har sett filmen, vad tyckte ni? Don't see this movie. It's crap! I like Mikael Persbrandt but even he failed in this movie. Danne and Izza described it as "swedish" and "spy" so I knew it would be bad, but it was actually worse than that.

Lunch by the beach

The simple pleasures of life that I allow myself to devour at times... Have you ever read anything by Michel Houellebecq by the way? I'm in love with his daring, uncensored way of storytelling. This is a great book.

The Internet?s Library
2011-10-24 17:23:00 Activism – Travis McCrea: When you suffer writers block, I find the best solution is to rip off someone else’ work (and take someone’s work who is promoting a product that you own), this is an article written by aeliusblythe (a commenter here) about The Ultimate Ebook Library (TUEBL). Just a quick side note, I wanted to write something about TUEBL myself, but aeliusblythe is much more intelligent than I am. Plus, I am doing planning for #OCCUPYVANCOUVER. Also the site may be down or shaky today, because we just came off a long down-time due a shaky server move… so everyone will be downloading their books. :) Be patient. TUEBL, or The Ultimate E-Book Library, is the place for books. DRM-free books. Users can downloadbooks that they want to be able to read freely on their choice of devices. And true to the symbiotic nature of user-driven sites, they can also upload their own DRM-free files for others to use. So far, it is home to over 6000 titles, but if ...

The greatest inspiration
2011-10-23 18:38:00 On our Twitter the other day, I was marveling at the fact that we've been out sailing for almost one full year now and I have had time to read only five of the 80 books we have here onboard. To be completely honest with you now, neither Alex or me still feel that we have started this tour completely as yet, for many reasons, primarily because we have had our hands full with all kinds of other projects, job, writing, dealing with our two boats sales and purchase and so on.. We haven't yet had one full week where we have had our mind and our body in complete rest, which might sound odd thinking that we have had 12 months since we left our home in Barcelona, but that is the honest truth. Another reason is also that Caribbean was never on our primarily itinerary, we stopped here only because we kind of "had to" - we were completely worked out and tired from those hectic months of preparing our dear Caos for this journey and on top of that, the very tiring ocean passage made us pull th...
