Michael Caine revisited

Now that the weather is still a bit gloomy what better time to re-watch some of the best Michael Caine movies? We started with the Harry Palmer series and see where we will end up. And even after 50 years or so - these movies are quite enjoyable and Michael Caine is great as ever :-)

Solar car port

Cute new idea from the BMW design center: a solar powered car port for the BMW i3 made from bamboo and solar panels . It is useless here in Amsterdam so I better stick to parking inside our garage...

Study: Straight men cuddle with other men. A lot.

Doesn't surprise me: Drawing on in-depth interviews with forty student-athletes at a British university, it was found that thirty-seven participants have cuddled with another male.
I am willing to help to expand this research to - let's say - 1000 more students...

Le1f (pronounced: leaf) a.k.a. Khalif Diouf makes some interesting tracks. Listen to Soda e.g. it has some very different vocals. Not sure if I could compose this - or listen continuously to it for that matter...

And the winner is: Aram MP3

Strange name - but clearly the best song at this year's Eurovison. A mix of Olive's "You are not alone" and at the end a Skrillex dub-step. He wrote it him self - so that is a change from other countries (like Russia and Ukraine) who ordered their songs in Sweden.

Bumper

I am not a fan of smartphone cases - but with my unfortunate experiences with my Nexus 5s - I had to take precaution measures: in comes the Ringke Fushion bumper. That will provide my hopefully with more grip and some protection when my phone drops the next time. (it also give me back my red rim)

10.000 days and counting

Today after exactly 10.000 days Eddie and I returned to (almost) the place where we first met. The opera was closed - so we had to settle with café l'Opera - next door. Wow those days went really fast which is very logical when you're having fun :-)
Hopefully we can make it all the way through the next 10.000 days together in good health and with our ongoing love.
