Nine-eighty-five. Brilliant!



I've just bought this painting from One Thousand Paintings. As a bright reader, you might already think "hmm... I wonder if a thousand paintings are for sale?" And you're right. It's a brilliant idea and it's just too bad I didn't come up with it.

Why 985? I don't know. Maybe it's my new lucky number?

985 = 5 × 197, sum of three consecutive primes (317 + 331 + 337), Markov number, Pell number, Smith number, also one of two ISBN Group Identifiers for books published in Belarus


I am looking forward to recieve my piece of internet history!

Latte-art extreme


Mocha poured by Bob

This is mocha poured by Bob. It's crazy. Unfortunately Starbucks is nowhere to be found where I live. Baresso is just not the same. Can I have a double-shot Venti® latte, please?

Dig in and enjoy the latte-art masters...

...or go wonder what really defines a "classic favorite"... Cinnamon Dolce Crème? Are you kidding? NO? Ok...

Something tells me that this Porsche Cayenne isn't a standard model...



The Porsches driving 'round Copenhagen definitely doesn't look like this! I suspect the rich guy owning this car had it modified just a little bit. It looks quite brutal to me. And by the way - black cars aren't seen very often in Dubai.

Have a look the other awesome and fast cars.

If you're not into speed, but just sheer size, you should consider the Ford F-650 Extreme Pick-up truck. With gas prices @ US$ 6.5 per gallon I am beginning to think of my X5 as an inexpensive and environmentally friendly alternative :) Who needs a Prius?

Going to Amsterdam

On next Wednesday (June 7th) I'll be heading to Amsterdam for the Designing and Building with Ajax seminar held by Jesse James Garrett from Adaptive Path.

The seminar is on Thursday, but since it's an all-day event, I need to fly there the day before. There are no such early flights from Copenhagen to Amsterdam and even if there were, I wasn't to be found on it. A 7 am flight means checking-in at 6 am, leaving home at 5.30 am and ultimately getting up at 4.30 am. Forget it.

Anyone going there? Wanna go out on Wednesday evening?
