For the past few days, my house has been having power problems…. Lights turning off and on, power tripping out in the office and the like. I called the Irish power providers (the E.S.B.) on Sunday night to complain with a couple of beers in tow… it seemed to work, because a nice fellow...

I have missed a whole lotta stuff....

For the last 4 months I have been disconnected from the web and life in general while I moved the office and the home… In fact I am still not fully connected to the web as I have no fixed IP address and am behind a proxy that the wireless provider has been promising to open for over a month now...

Meltdown.... but have a look at the Flight Simulator X E3 Video while you wait....

I have SO much to post about, but I have been away.... Just came back from the legendary Munster win in Cardiff and spent a few days getting drunk in Limerick. While you wait for that post, here is a link to the E3 HiRes video of FSX.

Crazy, but amazing.....

A friend of mine sent me these pictures today.... Totally amazing flying skills but not something I would like to try! Apparently this is the "Nissan Harvard Team" and was performed at the Marula Sun Power Races. Frans did a great job of capturing these images.

I wonder what team in Microsoft has the highest percentage of bloggers?

Two MVP summits ago, I was hassling the FS team to get blogging. By the time of the last summit, a lot were already and since then many more have started. (All the links are on the right side of this blog). The SBS Team have many blogs and Feeds all listed on our community page. Anyway, I would like...

Just back home... Misc Misc and More Misc....

I would probably still be at the in-laws if it was not for BT Ireland screwing up the broadband connection on the day I arrived. Just my luck, but it forced me to stay away from a computer for a record amount of time. I simply do not know how anyone can work on a 56K Dial Up modem any more! The problem...

You see... I was not lying... A Remote control aircraft did land at Dublin Airport...

A friend was asking me lately about "weird" aviation incidents. I mentioned to him that I heard that a radio controlled aircraft managed to land itself at Dublin Airport. He did not believe me.... so I went searching. Here is the report :) - Only in Ireland could this happen...

A quick Patch

Well, it has been a crazy two days since SB3's release. I have been busy on Squawkbox 3 .ca answering posts, and the problems are minimal.
