My life is going well, alhamdulillah.
I've spent the last two days tidying my closet. The closet in which I put all my papers and important (I discovered that I've been putting even unimportant) documents and things.

I have shredded and thrown away 2 big bags full of papers, magazems, invoices and old newspapers, and the shelves are still almost full... I just can't imagine how and why I have been accumilating all these things there. Most of those papers are things that I didn't fine time to read or decide if I want to keep or throw away, so I kept them in order to come back (tomorrow!!) and see... some of these date back to 1996!!

I found handbooks from the course I had on DOS!!! and my test papers from the days when I was taking French.. I had forgotten even that I once learned French...

I also found some of the mails I exchanged with some of you from teh days of Postmaster... oh... the lovely memories.. I don't know why I had printed some of the posts there and kept them...

I haven't gone through these yet, and when I do .. I will post some of them here is they are interesting.

Do you remember our arguments there? You and Terue against me? I remember one time in particular.. a time when you likened me to your dog.. (Sami?) argggggph... I don't know if I told you then, but this is the worst kind of insult you could get in my culture.. to be likened to a dog...

I have to go now... will continue later, ok?
