A Good Friday, at work, in pictures
This morning I was cycling to the station, and suddenly the idea struck me to blog in pictures today. Microblogging to the extreme, darlings. Sorry to subject you to this.

Best spam ever
No Nigerian prince ever contacted me, but this is almost as awesome!

There's a good chance this is not relevant to your interests
I ran into Jonie yesterday, and she told me that Wicked might be coming to The Netherlands (as you already might have read). Internet says yes. Joop van den Ende (the big musical cheese in our little country) acquired the rights in 2007, and it seems like it should be coming somewhere in 2010. Of course this has brought on a lot of fretting about ( Read more... )
