My recent trip to USA has certainly been educating. I got many of my presumptions confirmed over there, but I’d have to revise some of them. Which is good. I like to get my perceptions and paradigms challenged. Reminds me that I’m not perfect.

Nevertheless, I am impressed by American society in many ways. Sadly, I live in a very anti-American society (socialists does not like America, for obvious reasons), a country where “American conditions” means something like “too much”, “outrageous”, “superfluous”, “absurd” and other things like that. “We do not want American conditions” is (sadly) a rather common thing to hear.

We got our new camera yesterday, a Canon PowerShot A620. It's brilliant. I'll post some pictures some time. Shortly after getting the camera and playing with it, me and my colleague, Andreas went for a waterside lunchbreak. Which we came to regret.

We drove down there in a borrowed car, a two months old Toyota Avensis. A really nice car. Parked it on a side road to “Strandvejen”, the road that runs along the coast from Copenhagen to Elsinore. We parked next to a truck from norway. Then we ate a really tasty bagel each, waterside. Then we went back to the car and — you guessed it — the guys in the truck had managed to plow into our nice car. Bummer, but their insurance covers it etc.
