About

Short
The blog is designed to hold a collection of thoughts related to code. But sometimes it seems to move away from that and deal with the problems (and sometimes successes) of being a software engineer / programmer.

Books
I hate reading. Not particularly a preference, but it gives me a headache, my eyes wonder and a whole lot of general unpleasantness. Yes I've had my eyes tested, but glasses won't achieve anything. There are some books that I would really like to get out of the way so that I can have meaningful discussions about them, and anything else they might relate to.

• The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy <- (How can I call myself a geek without having read this book?)
• Lord of the Ring
  
  • Fellowship of the Ring December 2005
  • The Two Towers July 2006
  • Return of the king January 2007
  
  
• Dictionary
• Encyclopedia <- this could take a while
• Bible - Listened to some of it
