I saw these magical creatures live in Utrecht, Holland in 1991 – the energy, the lights, the crowd and the incredible noises the band made changed my life forever :) I’ve not seen any of their recent concerts, but I don’t think it would be the same. They made me realize that I didn’t hate rock music – I just hated the crap that was being played on the radio.

I recently had the unenviable pleasure of being involved in a project where the entire system was written in Object::Perl. I grabbed hold of it with both hands, banged my head an awful lot, and contemplated mailing anthrax and/or saran to the authors of said system many more times than what I’d normally be comfortable with.
Now that I have functional, efficient & error-free code, I can look back on all the brooding and whoaning (a new compound word denoting whining and moaning), and realise that it was actually worth it.
There doesn’t seem to be much call for it the real world, but it’s another skill your’s truly can add to his CV – Now that’s smokin’ XD
Happy Days

Definitely worth doing – a shower of silver electricity followed by a flood of soft, warm butterflies filling up my whole body, from the tips of my toes to the crown of my head. Perhaps it will happen again :)
