So, I used Google Translator to translate this page, and was terribly amused by the last line, which seems to come out as, "If you want to capture peasant people , you must be good enough that they do not get tired and go home first."

Accurate or not, that amuses me a bunch.

Much love,
Rowan

That's a funny translation. The verb 'bondefange' literally means capturing farmers, but is used about swindlers trying to play tricks on simple folks, or generally about dishonest/deceitful business practices.

Tch, tch, Telia. One of the reasons I stay away fom iPhone and Apple. I find them to be overpriced and besides I prefer open source. ;)
But I must say I'm shocked they take that much more than everybody else!

Viby J? Oh, that's my old neighborhood. Grew up in the center of it close to the square/parking lot. :)

I feel that I got what I paid for in my iPhone 3GS. It can do an incredible amount of things, and generally do them very well. While I like open source, I've gotten to an age where I don't want to poke around to get things to work, and where I can afford to pay the little extra to get quality stuff. Thus, I'm becoming more and more Apple-based. Just like I don't buy cheap cookware anymore. Yes, I could buy the cheap stuff and swap it out every three years for about the same price, but the frustration would not be worth it.

We're up on Monradsvej, so Viby Torv is an easy walk. It's a really nice neighbourhood.

Oh, yes, it is. :) I've walked there on occasion when younger. Usually drive by on the larger roads when I'm in Viby.
