Hey everyone.
If you’ve been at one before, you know what it’s about.
If you haven’t, then check out this flyer – 
(There’s a Hebrew flyer here.)
I’m hosting this event, and I’ve got a great cast of players lined up, so tell your friends, co-workers, post the flyer on any location that you can think of.
If something isn’t clear, let me know.
Looking forward to seeing you all!
Hey everyone,
My company is looking for the following, if you know or think of who this might be relevant for, send me your CV (gmail account). Also, send it to your friends.
Our QA team is seeking for workers as following:
– A full time long term worker. Requirements are flexible. Fast learner.
– A part time or full time student (or student like) worker for a short term work during January and February. Some knowledge of computers/software is needed but nothing special. Valuable experience gained.
Ok, you’re probably wondering what I am babbling about – again.
If you’re in Israel, you know that the weather has turned a little freaky over the past couple of days. If you’re not in Israel, then know this: Thunder, lightning, rain, winds are a bitch.
Yesterday’s forecast showed a “partly cloudy”, so naturally I suited up and rode to work. On the way I met with unseen forces that were semi-physical in their nature and they tried to change my course with the brute force of their attack.
Having arrived at my destination in one piece, I laughed at nature for trying to get me and failing.
Not a good idea. Y’see, when you laugh at nature, nature has a way of making you pay for it.
Throughout the day, winds increased until they reached a whopping 40km wind speed. Imagine that – walking along and a big invisible, mostly intangible, force hits you at 40km/h. Not fun.
Now try driving at 90-100km/h knowing that this force can strike at any time from any direction.
And then it does.
For anyone who has ever ridden a bicycle, motorcycle or even a unicycle, you know that balance is key. Our body contains a mini-gyroscope that is capable of automatically determining the miniature shifts in weight, which keeps you vertical on a moving object.
This gyroscope is inside our ear, and is called the “Labyrinth“. Without that, I’d be a big ol’ pile of roadkill, waiting for some other redneck to come along with a wrench and a spatula.
Not a pretty picture.
So today I’m going to ride into work with a co-worker. He mentioned that yesterday his car felt kind of wobbly, as these winds have done some serious damage to much larger vehicles. I guess he wants me there as extra ballast. 🙂
Have a good day, and don’t fly off. Eat something, you anorexic people! Those with weight shall stay on the ground, while those skinny people will be blowing in the wind.
So for those of you that have subscribed to the show, you already know there’s a new episode.
For those that haven’t subscribed yet, go here: http://feeds.feedburner.com/miketheman.
It’s a great show – let me know what you think. It’s your feedback that keeps the show going, so give us some to work with, eh?
What ever happened to ??
Well, this is my first attempt at posting from my phone.
I am in a car on my way home from work, and now I’m using a nice new browser – Opera mini. My SonyEricsson k750i has built-in predictive text, which makes writing a whole lot easier.
Anyways, this is just a test, and it seems to be working fairly well.
One interesting thing is that Hebrew is displayed backwards, just like the home ol’ days
This one’s a lot shorter and less boring than the last, so check it out at http://feeds.feedburner.com/miketheman – and do yourself a favor, and subscribe to something to get automatically updated.
Humor
Thought you should know about it.
To those of you who have trouble reading this, try to forget about what it’s supposed to say and about what it looks like.
Wow. The party crowd has risen to over 15 confirmed, and a bunch more maybes and who knows who’ll just drop in?
Looking good, looking good!
Tomorrow, I hope to record the next show – for those of you not subscribed one way or another, the last one was uploaded a couple days ago here. Get some podcatcher software already, people!
Hey y’all.
It seems that around this time every year I get all excited and happy that I can play some music dedicated to the seasonal festivities, despite where they come from.
Be it Christmas, Hannukah or any other holiday such as Chrismukkah, Festivus, Giftmas, HumanLight or hell, even Kwanzaa, I like to celebrate. In one way or another.
One of the best ways to celebrate is to meet up with friends, hang out, relax, schmooze and have a good time.
So this year, I am planning on hosting a theme celebration at my place, open one and all, with the main theme being having a good time. We don’t have to have a specific battle victory or a mysterious birth to have a good time.
This should take place at my apartment on Saturday, December 24th, starting in early afternoon and going until whenever.
If you plan on coming, please bring something – drinks, snacks, whatever, just don’t come empty-handed.
If you are interested in participating, please let me know and send me your email address to miketheman[at]gmail[dot]com – I hope to have the eVite site up on Sunday night.
This will be the second Real Life event, the previous being the fun-fun picnic we had a while ago, so keep that in mind.
If you know of a friend/acquaintance or someone who isn’t familiar with The Real Life, add them to the eVite list as well.
Looking forward to hearing and seeing everyone next week, and you’d better be happy!
EDIT: After everyone called attention to the fact that I can’t read a calendar correctly, I have updated the date.
I realize it’s been a while since my last real post or podcast.
I actually recorded one with Yos and need to edit it and put it up.
I hope to cajole Joe into recording one soon, and we’ll get back on the air after that looooong pause.
