28/04/2008 radio. Week2 day 1

Twitters:
1. Congratulations Sam :-)

2. VPN of Windows wasn't working, complaining 'no valid machine certificate found', help!.

3. VPN of Ubuntu wasn't working, complaining 'no response from target', help!

4. Access to Blogspot.com (English part) was lifted last few days. Economist, FT, Reuter etc were always accessible. Blockage on BBC was lifted three weeks ago or so. Didn't try CNN, not impressed anyway.

5. Breakfast news said Bugatti Veyron was sold as fast the speed it boosted at the Beijing International Car Show 2008, that is 2.7sec 0-100km. Where would they find the road to run it, without killing schoolkid on zebra crossing, or rolling over a push chair (both recent local news)? To say the least, I hope the owner had the seatbelt on when behind the wheel.

6. BBC said (28/04/2008 15:00 BJ time) the victim of a train crash, leaving Beijing to Qindao had lead to 66 deadly casualties and 243 injured, the number was still raising. cerealtom and his girl-friends is travelling to Shanghai from Beijing at the moment. They should have missed this service, fingers crossed.

7. 19 kids killed, 789 were admitted to hospital of an epidemic outbreak of enterovirus EV 71 at An'hui province (state official Xinhua news).

8. Have a family 'row' with Danni on MSN, we concluded that I am an over cautious dad.

9. Have ear defenders, full size headphones on in alternative all day to filter the road noise, which consisted of hammer drill; blares of horn; motorcycle alarm triggered by the blaring; pop music from nearby shops. The apartment was at 7th story, I have been told this is the height attracts most noise.

10. Have a quality day of work by not staying with Danni and Ryan, I am going to join them now.
A sign of quality was I used three ice packs to cool the laptop. It wasn't really ice packs, it was frozen sausages, frozen chicken breast and frozen ribs. Mother didn't thank me for making the sausage half cooked.

---------------------------------------------
Watched BBC the Apprentice current season episode 3 while we were waiting for Danni's chance to radiation.

Cant waited any more, there are still 4 patients in the queue, I was going to miss the last bus back my mothers.

Arrived home, texted Danni. She texted me back: 'Just done'. The time was 5 pass 22:00.
