So here I am again (at work ofcourse!) with a million things left to do…
I decided to “stop everything!!!” and send happy new year SMS’es to all of my friends after I realized there is no chance I will be able to call them all 🙁

Tina says a very wise man once said, “Friends are God’s way of apologizing for your family”.

(I don’t have any complains about my family, though. I just didn’t have anything else to quote…)

Anyway, Happy new jewish year all! May all of your wishes come true, etc etc… 🙂

Large police and rescue forces were dispatched to the British Embassy in Tel Aviv. The police reported that a man has entered the embassy’s complex carrying a gun and threatening to hurt himself if he is not granted political asylum in Britain.

After more than 8 hours of negotiations, Special Police Unit officers took into custody Nadim Injahz, a 28-year-old Palestinian (and also figured out it was a plastic gun).

I read on ynet about the Kids Channel’s White Night… and somehow I came to their schedule list… and found out they’re re-broadcasting Zbeng!!! 🙂

Surprisely (or not), I watched some episodes on the VOD a few months ago… but it seems that I missed a few episodes like the one they’re broadcasting today!

So I must finish my work soon and go home fast before it begins…

Stay beautiful!

The Weekend is over, I surely needed that one… last week was a mess!
One of our generators (that one was a mini generator actually) went on fire and caused problems on a few sun servers (with important dbs)… yuck!
I guess I already said too much but it was really sucks!

On an unrelated note, I was searching for an old modified picture of “Pinky and the Brain” someone made me when I was in the army… I found it eventually but it looked much better in my memory than in reality.
(If you wonder why I didn’t list it on my cartoons list, I only saw one or two episodes when I was on my uncle’s place because we had no cables back then)

Have a nice week!

I want to buy some new DVDs so I was thinking about either “The Wonder Years” or “The Simpsons”, not sure which yet (maybe both?)…

Not that I really think I’ll find time to watch it, lol 🙂

I also want to move all my video cassettes to the computer/DVD, it’s on my TODO list… but then again, 50,000 other things are also there.

The police erected roadblocks in Sharon area after receiving alerts that suicide bomber on his way to Israel to carry out attack.

There were big traffic jams because major roads leading to city centers have been blocked.

As of now, the terrorist has been arrested by the Israeli security forces.
