Roulita será Gordita
Estaba corriendo casi todos los días de la semana pasada ya, también entrenando los musculos de la culota y intentando librarme de la tripa con ejercicios aburridos y pesados. Pobre mi. He dejado chocolate Holandesa (que valiente), patatas y caramelos. Sí, señores y señoras, sólo arroz, verduras, frutos secos y muuuuucho hambre. Pero bueno, es la vida, tenemos que sufrir un poco.

Estoy en clase y pensando en chocolate y galletas, ni en los proyectos o otras cosas que son importantes de verdad. ¡Aaarrrrgh ! Tengo hambre....

Leclerc vs Carrefour
Two main supermarketchains that rock every shopping-junkie's-world out here in Espagna. Vamos, let's do a little poll here!
1. Leclerc rocks; Carrefour: buncha' fakies!
2. El mes Carrefour: I live for Carrefour! :)
3. They both stink :P

BLOG! addict
Gracias a señor José Luis Orihuela for making me a BLOG! addict. My lil' brainies are constantly thinking about what to BLOG! next. And folk, when I say 'constantly', I seriously mean 24/7. Good thing though, takes my mind off of food. Besides, I am as fortunate not to have to come up with any sensible topics to BLOG! about... Makes life as a Roulie a whole lot easier.
Muchas gracias señor Profesor, you have given my life a new meaning. This chiquita is born to BLOG!

True Torment
1. I have adjusted myself to living to the Spanish pace and I must say: getting up early is not part of it!!!! Why have classes at 8.00 when you can have them later... sheesh.
2. Two weeks ago I saw the worst actionmovie ever: a man was being tortured by a trav through nipple pinching and breasthair-plucking. Come on, you guyz, that's the kinda thing I would come up with, well... leave the trav out. Gosh, sick mind I have.
3. Vote doom: vote Arnold! Who ever thought our muscled-middle-aged-Termi-wormy would ever run for Gouvernour. But hey, that on itself is not all that weird, for numerous actors and actrices have attempted to, or even had somewhat of a significant role in politics. However, Termi-wormy? Pulllleazzz, I like the guy, but honestly, this is just asking for trouble.
4. Ever tried ordering something as simple as French fries in France?!
5. Peepz, at least 70 computers available here at my part of campus, yet all without access to MSN, Yahoo Messenger, AOL or any other means of instant communication and/or gaming through the Net, AAAARGH!!!! Definition of true torment.

This post on HTML liberates you from Insomnia
What do mr. Bush, mr. Nelson, Van Dam, Doug(ie) Engelbart, Andrew ('The Lip') Lippman, Janet Walker, my man NorMAN Meyrowitz and Bill Atkinson have in common? Next to them being very unknown to most of my BLOG! readers, they all have played a great role in the history of HTML. Let us put the facts straight here:
1945: The year in which Vannevar Bush enriched our world with Memex- development of search technology specifically for the Intelligence community.
1965: Ted Nelson made Planet Earth a better place for you with Xanadu- the original Hypertext project. This man actually created the word 'hypertext'.
1967: Andries van Dam (would he happen to be of Dutch origin? José says he might be Jean-Claude's cousin ;) created the Hypertext Editing System. Click here to know more about this smartypants and his invention.
1968: Doug(ie) Engelbart created an item we nowadays cannot live without: the mouse! He also contributed to the development of the On-Line system (NLS) and the formation of the ARPAnet community.
1978: Andrew ('The Lip') Lippman developed the Aspen Movie Map which allowed you to take a virtual tour through Aspen Colorado with the use of four video cameras. How revolutionary for peepz in 1978.
1985: Janet Walker and her Symbolics Document Examiner: first hypertext system which could be used by the paying customer. Smart lady: R E S P E C T!
1985: My man NorMAN Meyrowitz could not give his magno brainies a rest and so came up with an application on Macintosh for Brown University.
1987: HyperCard by Bill Atkinson, the first hypertext programme that was distributed for free on each Macintosh sold from 1987 on.
1989/91: The World Wide Web is proposed.
1993: Invention of Mosaic, the first graphic browser for the Web.
Now, if you have not fallen asleep yet, you better check this out: I want sleep.

X-File #00.0001: Disappearance of Calvé Peanutbutter
How odd.... the sudden disappearance of my opened jar of original Dutch peanutbutter. Just when I am having an urge for this creamy substance, I discover that somehow it was able to get out of my Pamplonian kitchen. However, can this case be classified as an X-File? What are the options on this mistery:
1. We could give this a reasonable explanation, which would mean I would have to accuse either one or both of my roomies for finishing my crema de cacahuete and throwing it away without telling me.
2. Not very likely: my roomy's BF´s cat ate it/took it/threw it away.
3. It just disappeared....... a rightful X-File #00.0001.
Come on you Mulders and Scullies, help me out here!
