Mac != Nokia E70

I had really hoped that Apple would include E70 support in iSync with 10.4.8, but it seems like I'm out of luck. Guess I'll have to try one of those don't-try-this-at-home-scripts from the net, who frequently seems to duplicate/mess up contacts and perhaps make the phone become FUBAR (yes - it HAS happened before...).

The Rolling Stones

Just got back from the Stones' concert in Twickenham, London. It was REALLY great - the best Stones concert I've ever been to! Mick was a 100% from the start, Ron was sober, and Keith seemed to have a good time. As a matter of fact, Keith and Ron were playing together in a way I've never seen them do before - this coconut climbing thing must have been a bonding experience for them :)

This was my sixth Stones concert... I wonder if it will be my last?

Summer reading

After spending a couple of weeks on Öland, I have finally had some time to read some books. It feels great; it is tough finding spare time to do much else but taking care of family (and as much business as possible) right now.

Anyway, I have been longing to read Ray Kurzweil's "The Singularity is Near" for a long time now, and it is really awesome! It's a must-read for anyone who likes to think about the future, instead of merely awaiting it. And the future might be here quicker than you think ;)

The second book I've managed to read is Johan Norberg's latest "När människan skapade världen" (not in English yet). It is at least as inspiring as his earlier book "In defense of Global capitalism", but it also shares a lot of thoughts, facts and philosophy with the older book. Available as mass-market paperback from day 1 makes it a non-brainer to read this summer, especially if you haven't read the first one.

Adam Åke Mosseby

On June 4, our baby boy Adam was born. It is truly remarkable how fun it has been to get a second child. Everyone around me said things like: "Getting a second child makes things not twice as complicated - it gets even worse!", but reality for us has been the opposite. Adam is a pretty smooth sailor...

PS. It has also helped having our fabulous grandparents around - without them, things would've been a little bit more complicated ;)

Playing the Angel - the concert

I went to Depeche Mode's concert in Stockholm yesterday. OMFG. It was REALLY good. It was my fifth Depeche concert, and maybe the best. Probably as good as my first one (World Violation Tour in Stockholm, 1990).

I was blown away by the fact that Martin Gore has stepped up and truly become the main person in the band. Being there when he was singing "Leave in silence" yesterday, was one of my best live music experiences. Martin has definitely been taking singing lessons ;)

Gubbarna och Bilarna

I morse låg hela familjen och läste morgontidningarna i sängen. Efter ett tags runthoppande lugnade Max, 2 år gammal, ned sig. Han plockade upp Dagens Industri, lade sig på rygg och började läsa. Domen kom efter ungefär tio sekunder:

- Gubbarna och Bilarna!

Max återgick tämligen omgående till runthoppandet i sängen.
