New Year, new ventureas and weight loss

Yes folks, 2005 is the year for some serious changes. I've got a scare and now had to get back to the roots. I'm battling against myself to loose some weight. It's been about 3 weeks and got down from 95 Kgs to 87-88 Kgs. Eating healthy foods, putting the junk away, the candies and of course the beer/Soft drinks combo.
Also started to get back in shape, doing some serious training. Got a membershib on a health club, to increase my cardio, and do some weight training. It's been a while since I've done something similar, and the circonstance were completly different. Now I have a sweet little girl that I love so mucha, and I want to be around to see her grow.
Love you Xuxu !!!

Linux Power

Today I have yet another exemple on how easy it would be if Linux was more deployed on the IT world. Spent the whole day debuging an application that trully would not work as it suppose to, and in the end after several tweaks on the security system, the rights would not be applied. I like some OS'es and Novell is one of them. Sad to see many shops leaving this environment to use windows. Despite ADS and the GPO's, the NDS tree is still unbeatable. I wonder if the "New Novell" will show all it's power with Linux workstations, the NDS tree and OpenExchange.
Thank you Linus ;)

Accept no substitutes

Some of you might ask what do I mean using this phrase after putting cars as my interest. Well... one word comes to mind... PORSCHE. You can't immagine how sweet is to have one, even an old model, and how funit is to drive one. Some might think that is an expensive car to maintain, depends of course, but the fun to work on one is so rewarding.
Of course, this ramblings about cars would not be complete if I don't mention "The Place" to get some serious info about those cars.... www.rennlist.com. This site has everything you want to know about Porsches, by enthusiast of the maker, and that could not exist without the work of one man John Dunkle.
If you're lookig to get one, take a look on this site and become a member, you'll not regret !

Hey a new blogger on the block

Wednesday September 22, 2004.

Well after a lot of thinking, I decide to set my blog on the net. Maybe it will be better to maintain than a web page. Some on the opinions and other stuff that I'll put on the net will have a special view from the place I live and folks around me. Hope you guys enjoy it.
