THE Real Life NUTTY PROFESSOR
Joe Wang is very cool - he hold a Phd. from MIT - and has his pockets loaded with Tawaniese Electronics/Gadgets/Cryptonite...
He represent a company on Taiwan ($3,5bill) - were they do a percentege of all notebook in the world (Compaq, Dell... it's all MADE THE SAME PLACE !)
Joe was with an even more interesting guy - Charles D
THE RECESSIONS HAS JUST STARTED
During my stay here in SF – I have only met people without jobs – or people who are just about to get sacked (SHIIIT) – this is USA – and normally we are 6-18 month behind – uhh – shit then we might confront even more layoffs in Denmark and Europe – BAD !! The strange thing here in SanFran – is that people pretend that they are cool about it – and even pretend to look forward to that PINK SLIP – damn. That’s called laying to yourself – TALK ABOUT IT – realize that it’s not COOL to loose your Job just because everyone else did. Don’t get “WOODY ALLEN” – but talk about it. I think that 911 (September 11th) has been used as a stupid excuse for HYPER LAYOFFS. Do like EvHead - gå imod strømmen - og forfølg din drøm.
INTERNET ALL OVER - 802.11b
Starbucks / Bars / The Neighborhood - there is wireless internet – you can get online – COOL. And soon we will all be online allover? The revolution is here !!!!! But there will be no HUGE ISP business. Telco’s are TELCOS – and they see and sell only phones – try to kills us with stupid outdated product (WAP). The 802.11 Movement will be telling people to share their (A)DSL connection (SFlan.com like) trough a fairprice AccesPoint. This wireless network kills (by evolution) all debate about last mile - and can also Kill the digital divide - since the Palms/Handheld PC within time will become Ipphones - and 3G network will be dead before the are started. WELL THIS IS COMPRESSED INFO ;)
802.11b is 11Mb wireless, Mac has had it for years :)
802.11a is 52Mb wireless JUST RELEASED by Intel (
watch this)

Kære Line og Jacob - I er de varmeste og mest glade/hjertelige/spændende mennesker - og Jeg (selvhøjtidelig som jeg er) ønsker Jer det ALLER BEDSTE Og en million gange til lykke med
Fuck - det er fedt - også at vi får det før "gamle" vennepar - som gider at snakke om de ting som overtager GinTonic og Bikerstøvlernes plads - når der kommer en guldklump i hjemmet. LADS OS SAMMEN huske at holde lidt igen overfor singlerne - så vi ikke skræmmer dem væk !! Og Jacob - ja med alle de piger skal vi vel have købt JagtGevær og Slangebøsser ??
DownTown San Fran
Being a farther and a husband has one strange string attached - SHOPPING. And it’s not my favorite dish, but I got to se how the silly shopOholics stressed around - whit branded bags and eyes like guns in Doom. WOW small even lady’s can carry big bags. I went to
GAB with a VERY LONG LIST of things to by for my daughters - AND THE KNOWT HOW TO SPELL TO SERVICE INTHERE. "Hi - how are you doing" - silly me - started answering "well I'm little hungry - and hate shopp.." - But they didn't care - UNTIL I SHOWED THE LIST from Hlin - wow - then they ran like Afghans under attack - to find all the stuff - and to get my approval FUN FUN FUN...
The trip the was astonishing - beautiful - and the MUNI (Metro) seems safe as a church - no drunk people shouting, no beggars - only smiling gays (WOW a LOT) - and NICE smiling couples - with BAGS as big - as if they were going to war :)
MORNING TRIP – I want to move here
I really hope that I can convince my wife :) Just had a long nice morning walk - through this unbelievable neighborhood - buying the paper and some the - WOOW WOOOW - it's nice. EVERYBODY have something to drink in theier hand - NOT DANISH. People go out for Coffee - sit outside - chat with each other - read the paper - laugh. And then the people en the 10 small coffee shops on 24th are all smiling and friendly. WELL THATS not what I’m used to - PITCTURES WILL COME - my cam went our of battery.
Here are some pictures of Evan's street and house NICE.
LAURA ON THE HOSPITAL
I WORRY A LOT - just got an email that LAURA - my heartcrashing daugther - is on the hospital with her MUM. DAMN it's bat to be 14h fligth away - DAMN.
Nice dinner and a couple of Beers & Thoughts
Evan took me to a Chinese/Thai restaurant - and the portions was very American - but delicious, we had a couple of beers. I was smuggling cigarettes out of the pocket, now and then, and hiding that I smoked. This place seems mentality is very relaxed - no crime (rich neigbourhood?) - But Evan referred very often to the fact that a LOT of people got fired recently - and I have this theory that we haven’t seen noting yet. And I really doubt that the whole it-industry made any value in global economy scale (there are no BIG B2C TRANSACTIONS) - but then again the WEB IS SO YOUNG - and it will come, maybe it will be Mobil eCommerce -
this phone [SonyEricsson] make's me think of a future movie - Seen when i was a kid, off course.

Evan's place (Mr. BLogger) I must get into using it.
The trip here started CPH.04:40 - with packing - and writing Evan what "close" to wear. I thought of San Francisco as "HOT and Beach-like" all yaer - but luckyli Evan wrote me back that I schould bring warm clothes. That was lucky that i brougth my jacket - since the weather from above the sky
