This morning on the way to work I looked to my right and saw 3 swans flying in formation over the River Lee. They made for an amazing spectacle and they continued alongside my car for about 200 yards before banking away to another part of the city.
I wish I had my camera and had been standing at the side of the road with a tripod. They flew over a bridge, a man walking across the bridge was oblivious to these magnificient birds flying just feet above his head, in fact nobody seemed to notice them.
They are beautiful and powerful creatures, and seeing them so early in the morning lifted my spirits, hopefully for the rest of the day!

bust a mime in the mouth! – hehe.

Interview with Nautilaus Maintainers.

aalib-based x server – see the screenshots! X in text mode!

Someone on IRC was reading /. this morning and found this nugget.

Minister issues ODTR internet order – wooo! Finally, the Irish market may get a real flat rate Internet access product out of this, at a reasonable price.

Getting Ahead in Traffic – I avoid that roundabout like the plague in the morning. In the evening after 6:30pm it’s not so bad but ironically it’s easier to go through town than by-pass it.

While searching for the “Water or Coke” email I followed this link and found a site with lots more emails! Pity about the site colours though!

Two virus/trojan related stories:
WINE: A new place for KLEZ to play
It must really suck to be a Windows IT person. – this is the reason I installed the E-mail Sanitizer to mangle attachments and capture viruses.

“Dogs” of the Linux Shell – some great tools here.
