Hola

Was in Juarez for a weeks training. Have been to many mexican cities now. heres the list -> Mexico City, Cuautla, Guadalajara, Mexicali, Tijuana, Juarez.

At work things have been very busy with Jesper leaving. Been travelling nearly 100% with important projects coming up. Have realised that if one works harder, one gets more responsibility. If you do that sucessfully, you get still more responsibility and more work. It never ends. The dream to making enough money to retire by 35 is still on.

My spanish has improved quite a lot. I have even been complimented by mexicans that my accent is perfect. :) I think I will settle down in Mexico after I retire. :)

Have been following up on football recently. Clemson is on a roll after the heartbreaking loss to BC. With the next 2 easy games the top 25 ranking is assured. Yesterday they beat LTech 51-0. Wake Forest is next. Falcons had a good game today and they beat the Cardinals 32-10. Vick still is the most dangerous QB due to his rushing game.

We had a cookout yesterday with Korade and Niara. BBQ'd tofu for the vegans and chicken and sausages for the rest. Was a lot fun :)

Have been reading the 'The code book' by Simon Singh which explains the evolution of cryptology over the years. I am very impressed by Singh's ability to explain even the most difficult ciphering principles so simply. It is amazing to read stories of how the cracking of the 'Enigma' was instrumental in Allies winning WWII. Have always liked solving codes since I was a kid. I loved Sherlock Holmes' 'The mystery of the dancing men'

I have been neglecting blogging for quite a while. Will write in more often.
