Carefully optimistic

EeeUser is back up and running - and Ant (the owner/admin) have given an explanation for why it has been down. I'm not going to pop any champagne, but I'm happy to see the place back up.

Pocket sized computing devices

Not new-new, but new to me... handy little pocket sized devices for crunching numbers, more than good enough for generations of engineers: slide rules!

Super excited to have gotten these - not only are they cool and geeky, but got some history there as well. Top one can be used both as a regular slide rule and to calculate pitch for maritime propellers - how awesome is that?

Scoooooooooter!

50cc, 50km/h - and lots of fun. Going to take me a little while to get used to it, but that's how it is with new toys.

All but given up...

EeeUser is still pining for the fjords as it were - it's passed on, ceased to be expired and gone to meets it's maker. Or so I presume; while Ant (the owner of the site) may still bring it back, I'm not going to hold my breath and check daily no more. It would be a damn shame if it was gone forever - since it's was a goldmine of information - but I don't have access to the database nor do I have Ant's contact information.

In more happy news I have both found a very nice shaving forum online, and gotten to ride my new scooter back and forth to work all week. Life is good.
