New pair of Telemark boots
If you haven’t made the transition to plastic… now is the time. The T4 is an extremely lightweight boot designed to bridge the gap for leather boot enthusiasts – the gap between their trusted leather boots and the not-so-new paradigm of plastic. The T4 has a nice, soft flex, bending in both the toe and ankle producing a natural feel. Suitable for all kinds of backcountry travel, the T4 is equipped with easy to use aluminium buckles, an ergonomic liner, and the Scarpa/Skywalk® Telesystem sole. Ideal for those who want to break into tele… without going broke in the process.
Bought them at Finn.no for only 900,-. Need an alternative to my T1 Freeride during the easter when spending more time walking up than skiing down. The T1 has given me plenty of blisters as well, hope to avoid them now..
Blog updated
I’ve updated my blog to the latest stable version 2.4.6 “New Year”. Not any hassle at all, did it in about twenty minutes, 10 of those minutes must be blamed for my FTP client transferring not only the new conf-files, but also pictures in the media-blog. For somehow it did not detect the pictures in my local file folders as identical to the ones on the server. Anyhow, up and running with a smile.
It’s Friday

This seasons first descent
This weekend me, Espen, PeA and AJ went to Hemsedal, my first time on snow this season and as always…nothing better! Saturday was not of the best days due to a bit bad weather, but Sunday was nice. I tried Djeveldalen (#2) for the first time, and off course Reidarskaret
The picture shows a kind of rainbow I’ve never seen before. I had the sun behind me and pretty much fog in front.
Lossless and lossy audio formats for music
Before changing the speakers in my car I thought that MP3 was the digital audio format that I would prefer for our entire cd collection. Last week, I was told that I should use lossless formats instead, but I did not care. But that was before yesterday. When out driving with the car listening to tracks on my Ipod I turned the volume all the way up to max without any problems. Somehow I was not pleased, I thought the sound…was a bit bad. But, then I switched to the cd-player…and whow!! So, now I have to delete all the MP3’s I have ripped, and instead use the FLAC-file format. You can read all about it here

Car stereo upgraded
Today I had my car at Oslo Bilstereo. They replaced the speakers mounted by Ford with a pair of TS-H687 Pioneer speakers. Suddenly we have good sound in the car.
The next thing I want is the TS-WX77A Space-Saving Amplified Subwoofer
Britney Renames Controversial Song “If You Seek Amy” To Avoid Radio Ban
Controversial my ass!! If you, with pretty much imagination, sings the chorus fast …”if you seek Amy”, someone has figured out that you can hear “F-U-C-K”…WTF??? But, then again, nothing new under the sun, it’s off course from the U.S, the country responsible for “Parental Advisory – Explicit Lyrics”. So now Britney will rename the song, and sing “If you see Amy”…jezz!!

Rock chip on my windshield
Earlier today when driving home from Gardermoen where I had been with my grandmother who was travelling to Allicante a small rock hit my windshield making a chip in it. I cursed a lot, but when I had calmed down again I drove straight to Riis Bilglass http://bilglass.no/ and about twenty minutes later I drove away from there with my windshield repaired.
Premiere of Død Snø
Last Friday we had tickets to the premier of the Norwegian movie called “Død Snø”
Described on Youtube as
A group of eight friends drives to a cabin in northern Norway where German troops where slaughtered by angry locals living there in 1945. Now the undead zombie Nazi soldiers feast on whoever comes there way.
…so definitely not a movie for the big masses 🙂
