Not much to report today. Stine is coming to visit tomorrow, she’s staying until Monday, so there might not be that many updates for you this week. But if I know myself well enough, I guess I’ll need some time by the computer during the week. Nerd.

Been listening to a lot of good comedy by Bill Hicks lately. He’s got some hilarious jokes and I recommend him to everyone. Except maybe for pro-life people. And Christians. And hicks. And patriots. Too bad the guy is dead.

Firebird is out in a new version with a new name, now it’s called Firefox. I’ve not been able to download the browser, so good luck to you all.

The site – this site, that is – had a little downtime tonight, don’t know why, but I was suddenly getting 403 Forbidden error messages while trying to access it and I was unable to connect to the FTP server. My host have been talking about adding some more RAM to some of their servers, so they might have done that and restarted my server. Why they did it during peak hours is beyond me, but no harm done, the site you all love is back up and breathing again. For now.

    Firefox rocks.. but if you’ve been running a fairly new nightly of Firebird the changes are not really noticable … but hey.. it’s a new release.. :)

    I downloaded a bunch of Bill Hicks material and I must agree with you. he is hilarious! :-D
    I especially like the stuff about gays in the military.

    P.S. tomorrow I leave for Saltstrømmen, Bodø, which is the worlds strongest tidal current. up to 25 knots they say. this weekend is going to be filled with awesome scubadiving. :-D

    i just downloaded firefox for mac os x tonight. i don’t know why; i couldn’t import my bookmarks from safari, and it doesn’t smooth the fonts.

    in other words, “to hell with that!”

    "I don’t want any gay people hanging around when I’m killing kids!"

    I’ve still not had the time to test Firefox. Maybe some time next week.

    I’m testing it now… Not that big difference far from firebird…except the download manager… I have converted from IE, but still have to access some pages with IE at work..

    i have another one liner for you.

    ‘It is not hard to do, but it is easy to do it wrong.’

  9. Vegard Friday February 13th, 200408:45 CET

    Thanks. Added. The site now has a total of 375 one-liners.

    If death is the begining then when does it end?

  11. ian Tuesday February 17th, 200400:33 CET

  12. deadman Tuesday February 17th, 200403:55 CET

  13. deadman Tuesday February 17th, 200403:57 CET

  14. Kristoffer Wednesday February 18th, 200421:02 CET

    Alternate one-liner: “If death is the end, then that’s it.”

    How old would you be if you didn’t know how old you were?
