Birthday 2010
Hi there,
Today is my birthday and my sister-in-law's too. We have celebrated it in my cottage spending a day out in the country. Everything was just fine but it started raining late in the afternoon. Too bad!!!
After that my nephew and me have feed the hamsters and checked the new born ones. They seem perfectly healthy. Their mother didn't mind us checking their nest. I'm glad about that because I thought she might get really angry after all I've read about them on the net. Anyway I need another cage. It's impossible that they all fit in this one when they grow up. It's 10 animals where there were only two!!! In less than a month I need to find people interested in adopting a hamster. Think about it!!! They are nice, friendly and cheap to keep. Interested?????
I'm publishing some pictures of my birthday presents as well as some photos of the celebration.

Hooked on Tiny Core
I'm really hooked on Tiny Core Linux It's only 10MB. It's really awesome. I quote from their website for your information:
Tiny Core Linux is a very small (10 MB) minimal Linux GUI Desktop. It is based on Linux 2.6 kernel, Busybox, Tiny X, and Fltk. The core runs entirely in ram and boots very quickly. Also offered is Micro Core a 6 MB image that is the console based engine of Tiny Core. CLI versions of Tiny Core's program allows the same functionality of Tiny Core's extensions only starting with a console based system.
It is not a complete desktop nor is all hardware completely supported. It represents only the core needed to boot into a very minimal X desktop typically with wired internet access.
The user has complete control over which applications and/or additional hardware to have supported, be it for a desktop, a netbook, an appliance, or server, selectable by the user by installing additional applications from online repositories, or easily compiling most anything you desire using tools provided.
The latest version: 2.10

Yumi's given birth
Today, exactly 20 days after Skippy and Yumi met for the first time, she has given birth to 8 lovely little hamsters. I hope everything goes fine and they grow healthy and strong.
(Usually they give birth between 16 - 18 days)
I suppose I'll have to buy a bigger cage. That's great! Weekend shopping!!!!!!!!!

ING
Last month I opened an Orange Savings Account at ING Direct a virtual bank owned by ING Group and I have to say that it is one of the best things I've done in my whole life. It works great and it is simply because they practice what they preach. I mean that they keep their promises. They are serious and efficient. I had a similar feeling when I switched my phone company to simyo
I changed because I started to feel like a prisoner with my former bank. I had to pay for using my own money!!! I do not usually have to care much about banking as you do not often have to worry about what you do not have. Not having money is a great source of tranquility... But lately I've had to do several money operations which have revealed me the true nature of what's behind a smiling face at the counter.
Naming the full list of advantages of ING would maybe be too long. Let's cut it short by saying that I truly believe that I've made a change for the better. Fingers crossed again as usual!!!
