+==== Italian profanity ====
+
+I just found out that "A Cappella" is how Italians say "in the style of the church".
+It's used for music played by human voice instead of instruments. Yes, indeed.
+Nobody could understand why I was grinning :-)

+
+==== Random Birthday Paradox ====
+
+I'm writing you this from ChrisBalls's house. cjb for IRC friends.
+Yesterday was his wife's birthday. And also the birthday of somebody
+else too. That's where the title came from: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Birthday_paradox .
+
+We're having a lot of fun and getting drunk very quickly. Someone
+came with a box of Avocados with a picture of Avogardo saying:
+"let's Party. arriba." It's the things like these that will make it
+very sad for me to leave this nation.
+
+Food is vegan, and incredibly tasty if you ask me. There are people
+from the office as well as other nerds from other places. One guy
+showed up with a tee saying: "shut the fuck up and write some
+code!". We're listening to TheSoundOfSilence from Xyzzy's (*) mp3 player.
+That's one of my favourite songs, but I thought it was from the Beatles :-)
+
+(*) We'll call her Xyzzy 'cause she doesn't want her name to end up on
+Internet.
+
+
+Xyzzy: remember...all is not as it appears to be and the best place to hide something is in plain sight
+
+Bernie: hmmm... then I guess I'll hide at OLPC and the USCIS won't find me :-)
