So what other passions do you have besides b2b?

Me... lots of stuff but mainly birds... I totally dig birds... I have 9 pet birds right now.... yes they talk! They are a total riot!

I have my weekly radio show:

Mostly punk, hardcore and indie stuff.

I lived in Hawaii for a little while, and rented a room from a woman who previously owned a pet store. Every morning at about 5 AM, these two birds that she had living in a tree outside the house would start screaming her name. It really freaked me out for the first couple weeks.

I've been playing Carcassonne quite a lot lately. I think it's called Ark Of The Covenant or something in the States. It's a tactical board game; lots of fun for the entire family :)

However, that's going to change in a few months: we've bought a house and it's going to take us a while to turn it into something we really like. We're probably going to rebuild part of it.
And on top of that we're expecting a baby by the end of June, so I won't be able to do a lot of research anymore.

Wow you will be a busy person!!! Congrats!!!

Carcassonne is still Carcassonne here. Ark Of The Covenant was a later variant on the base game that was released (I believe worldwide).

That's my game of choice for introducing non-gamers to "European-style" board games (a fairly meaningless descriptor mostly used to mean "not Monopoly").

Carcassonne and Catan are really big over here these days. Two years ago, everybody was just playing cards. Now people are having huge game-nights and are playing those games during lunch break.

I'm writing a maths book. I'm trying to document in one volume the complete chain of reasoning that starts with the rules of logic and the Zermelo-Fraenkel axioms of set theory and ends with the definition of numbers. 400 pages and counting.
