Thank you, Olaf

February 5 2005

Still so much catch-up blogging to do from the last few weeks.

For those who weren't at the Lotusphere 2005 "Domino blogging community" birds-of-a-feather session, news might not have reached your eyes about the touching gift I received there from "Olaf Björklund".  Bill Buchan hand-carried a gift from "Olaf" to me -- a custom t-shirt celebrating Lotusphere (this was before Bill had opened that bottle of Highland Park....).  It is too bad "Olaf" wasn't able to join us at Lotusphere, especially since he missed the Geekdinner in Staines back in October.  Still, in a very thoughtful gesture, "Olaf" has made the t-shirt available on cafepress.  That's really nice, especially since over a week later, I still can't tell who the heck two of these faces are (you'll have to view the larger version to even attempt a guess)....

    Ed,

    I hate to admit this (and I don't know how he got the picture) but, I know who's face is at the bottom of the picure!

    Indeed, the bottom one is the "old git" himself, from his Eindhoven "project diamond" days... Ooops. Have I said too much ?

    What flag is that? It is not Swedish, looks a bit like the Icelandic flag, but has yellow instead of white.

    I've just had confirmed from the Man himself, that the other mysterious face is the infamous "Pants" (he who has no blog - { Link }

    Olaf apologies for the quality of the pictures, but in mitigation he did say that it was 3am, he was using the linux package "gimp" and was distracted by his goat nibbling his toes...
