"Ahoi!"
Originally written by Alexander Arnst on November 17th, 2002.

Hi people! Apologies for the heading, but I just had to do that ^^… So, what can I write? You see, I’m not a person of long speeches.

Since a few months I am a programmer in this penitentiary full of happy mentally ill people.

It feels good to maintain the balance between wannabe teachers of our school, the mentally disordered boss at work and the nice venturous members in our dream factory producing challenging entertainment software ^^ (a long sentence, but you know what I mean)… I often get caught in between those (Rexona is just the biggest lie), and when I’m about to collapse, I simply let everything be and watch my daily dose of The Simpsons ™…

But let’s get serious. I like it here, one learns a lot in their own area of expertise (which for me is programming). A year ago I would have never (relatively speaking ^^) typed so professionally as I am doing now… And it is also very interesting to see how the project is growing. You can’t of course compare it with watching the grass growing, but it is a new experience…

Yes, I can honestly say that we are progressing very nicely, although I cannot give you any actual dates for anything since I am not the official representative of mindFactory Inc..(what are we actually, Co.? Ltd.?)…

By the way, why is it that in every one of your greeting mails only the graphic designers are praised? What about the hard working people (hahaha)… The only thing I hear is “OH MY GOD! Look at those amaaaazing graphics!” Dude, we have feelings too, you know *sniff*…

So, this should do it for a first time. Enough with the writing. I’ve had a German examination today already, a big German examination and I’ve had enough of coming up with text…

PS. Do you know that episode of The Simpsons where Homer gets Burns’ house, while he’s at the doctor and fills out the forms? And he fills in under the column ‘Cause of death of parents’ “You were in my way!”^^? That’s my favourite joke, but you have to imagine it with Burns his voice…

So keep it together,
All the best,
Alfreak (alias ElBarto, alias BarbaraElichmann, alias BundyAlBundy, alias IgorTheHunchbacked – not really ^^)
