by Vasil KolevToday there wasn’t anything significant – again there was no electricity at the project (NEC are building a new line), so there’s no clarity if the audit has proceeded (but it’s possible, the people that do such jobs work mostly at night).
At IBB it was fun as usual – this time I tool the phone for reservations, to make the waitress a bit happier (she’s always the same at wednesdays :) ). I hope I’ll find someone to work on the organization, because I really don’t have the strength to do it. And some important news – Peio reappeared, after a long absence, and everybody was happy :)
Today for most of the day I felt tired, and kept on reading – last night I finished “The brigade”, today “Dude, where’s my country”, and now I’m reading “Lullaby” by Palahniuk (who is about to enter the top of my favorite writers, there aren’t a lot of people that write such influencing books). I can’t really concentrate on the mailing lists, for example in NANOG there is a discussion about NAT and similar to RFC1989 addresses in IPv6, but I still haven’t read it all. Tomorrow is the netsec demo, then there’s test, etc, and I really feel drained, and I’m thinking about going into the mountains for some days some time in the next few weeks – to drop all the work and just disappear. Even the crocodile has a soul…
Some words on “Dude, where’s my country” – 50% of the book are worth reading, the rest is crap. I think that he got the Oscar for documentary just because they needed a way to shut him up – he’s not making documentaries, but scandal describers, the style is eye-poking (that’s why there is a NPOV in Wikipedia).
