"Hemmeligheten bak Den gode prestasjon"
September 25th, 2006Read the book given to me by Bertel O. Steen almost two years ago. Read parts of the book back then, but when in Riga I took the time to read it all. It's not a novel, and most of it should be quite common knowledge, but what they are able to do is to im… more »

September 25th, 2006Spend the weekend together with Elin in Riga. We went around shopping, ate good food at cosy places and just used the tram to travel around. Due to me being a bit lazy when reserving the hotel, we ended up at Hotel Bergs. A bit to expensive, but what the… more »

September 25th, 2006Read the book written by John Dickie about the Cosa Nostra. Quite interesting, a lot of names to remember, should really read it two times or more. Interesting reading, I recommend it, but do not expect it to be written in Hollywood style. more »

September 17th, 2006Yesterday I was invited by my old colleague Helge from Bertel O. Steen to go water-skiing at Hurdalssjøen. That was plenty of fun - and belive it or not, not to cold either, not at least until I got back in my car. Had to increase the temprature up to 25… more »

So far - but no longer
September 14th, 2006I was out with my bike yesterday. The plan was to only use the gravel roads, but when the road ends and the only possible way further is floodlit track I had no choice. At first the track was quite dry and ok to ride a bike on, but the further I went the… more »

Jakten på Bismarck
September 6th, 2006The order was not correct, first I read about Scharnhorst, then Tirpitz and at last Bismarck, should have been the other way. Anyhow, very good book, I recommend it DOS
