Sailing

I had the great chance to go sailing for the first time in my life last week, on the 30th of November. The boat was like one of those nice boats with big sails that you only see in the picture and I was even allowed to drive it!!!
I have to admit that it felt great even though handling the steering wheel it's the easy part... because you also need to pay a lot of attention to the wind shifting from side to side so that you can better orientate the sails. In our case, the real sailors (the owners of the boat) were doing that for us and we concentrated exclusively on driving
It felt very nice and if you ever have the chance to try it, don't miss it! Btw, you'll find more pictures here: Sailing 30-09-2004

I've heard about this many times and finally somebody tried if it was true. Don't know what to say... I could have never guessed those lines by myself, but if I can look at them while the song plays (backwards) then it somehow sounds similar...Shocking

Take a look at this tour around the forbidden area in Chernobyl, it's simply amazing, specially the "ghost town"

and throw some paperballs into the bin It's a bit tricky to get the hang of the moves of the arm but once you know how it works, it's great!!
Linklogs

I have recently become quite addicted to some pages that work as "linklogs". In other words, they just collect links to interesting pages in the net... These are my favourite linklogs:- Fark: My favourite one Lots of links every day classified in categories such as "Dumbass", "Cool", "Spiffy", "Scary" or even "Boobies" (gues what goes into the "Boobies" section? )
- Blogdex: This one is supposed to track the most popular links in the blogosphere... Sometimes there's nothing worth checking out in it.
- del.icio.usThe tagline of this linklog is "collaborative bookmars" and apparently anybody can submit links to them. Interesting.
- Diveintomark.org blinks: Mark Pilgrim's collection of interesting links. Mostly geek-related and not updated very often... But worth checking nonetheless.
- BoingBoing: Also lots of stuff here, though every link usually comes with an article talking about it that of course you can always ignore
