The crayfish episode!
 
On the weekend that passed we had our official annual crayfish party and we had a blast, but unfortunately I recorded this show prior to the party so no dirty details on this show... But I do tell you a bit about my childhood memories regarding crayfish hunting season and also about another incident that happened last week that has nothing what so ever to do with crayfish, even if it involves a fishy dude!

Welcome to the property tax episode!
 
Hi everyone and welcome back to a regular and a - if I may say so myself - very good episode, where I get a brief visit from Travis and April of The Ponderplace Podcast right before it all begins and we also listen to some great music from way back when...

Welcome to DriveCast #1
 
Welcome to this first attempt at a real drivecast. Of course I screw things up and we loose 1/3 of the content, but hey...We're all beginners at the start, and I am pretty new to this mobile stuff.

On the next DriveCast - cause there will be more of them in the future - you will be able to enjoy improved sound and less static due to some serious soundengineering that I am testing right now. It involves a wollen sock and some tape!

Hope you all enjoy it anyway!
 
 

 
The summer is over...

...and the summer was short! And for many people at work summer of 2007 is all they can think of. You see, in this country we use good weather as an exchuse to get off work.
We don't want to "waste" good weather since it's so rare.

Test driving out in the open!

Just a short show to test my new mobile recording gear. More will follow, but I might not put them all out there. Just wanted to let you know how things are and see how it sounded like!

Please give me feedback on the sound and the quality of the show, so I know where I stand!

Like a bolt from the blue...
 
A big part of this show is dedicated to the different phenomenas that we know of as thunder and lightning and the reason for this is because we've been having a great deal of it lately, unlike Tom and Adele of The Loose Ends Show who live close to San Diego and never have thunderstorms.  WHY is that???

Also I have a great deal of important announcements on the show. The biggest of them being that I have started a podcasting group for swedish podcasters called SweCasters.

Hi there!

Just wanted to inform the world about SweCasters. The one and only group for swedish podcasters in Sweden.

We've only just begun the work with it so it's VERY new, but together I think we can change the world...well, maybe not, but almost!

Thrips, Trips and Millimeters
 
Isn't it strange how small things can get? I'm always so astonished by how mice can find thier ways into small, small holes where you can hardly fit a finger. So, don't even get me started on Thrips. One just moved into my screen (picture)! And he didn't even ask first...

And I've started cycling to work at last, and this time for real! And that is so much more healthy than driving, especially when you have encounters behind the steering wheel like we did on Sunday! Tell you more on the show.

Want to know the answers to the quiz???
Check out the Laminated List Website, where the objects of my admiration are displayed in some kind of priority order.
The winner of the Quiz was: SKIP
