Cities XL
Jan 26th
Posted by Roger in Cool stuff
I just started playing a demo of Cities XL after discovering this game on the Steampowered site. A really cool game if your a fan of Sim City. This one is very similar to Sim City in my opinion and the best part is that you can play online with other players and trade with them. I will try the demo for a few days more before I order the full version

Have you heard about the trucker who turned his 18 wheeler into what he calls a Rolling Memorial, a tribute to those who died in the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks. The trucker’s name is John Holmgren from Shafer, MN . He has been “pulled over” numerous times just so the troopers can get their picture taken with the truck.

About 40km north of Salezburg you will find a little Austrian town called Fucking. The city with zipcode 5121 has around 100 citizens and lies close to the German border.
The village is known to have existed as “Fucking” since at least 1070 and is named after a man from the 6th century called Focko. In 2004, due to the stolen signs and embarrassment over the name, a vote was held on changing the village’s name, but the residents voted against doing so.

I came across this accident outside Seljord last night. On my way to Drammen from Stord we got stopped about 4km outside Seljord where a truck from Emdals had gone off the road and downhill. The driver was in good condition after the accident
Husnes
Sep 3rd

We arrived last night at Husnes. We are here to deliver another load of Lett Tak. Im # 11 and Morten is #12. Im standing now at a “soon to be” parking lot just across the Statoil gas station. We bought a couple of cheeseburgers there last night by the way and they tasted great. So I would recommend the Statoil station here if you are hungry
They also have a wireless internet zone.
Im going to unload at 12:00pm, its still 2,5 hours left so I have plenty of time to surfe the net
Off road
Apr 28th
I got stuck in the mud this week when trying to make a large curve to avoid the roadsign. This is what happend when a heavy truck (still empty) gets of the road. I blocked three files in Bergen for about an hour and large queues were growing in both directions. Finaly the the crane truck and the police came and helped me.

This is a movie of Voyager, one of the fastest and largest cruiseships caught in a cyclone in the middle of the Mediterranean Sea.

This have to be the largest pothole in the world. So think twice before entering water pools with your car

Well not exactly, but it did slow down the bullet enough so it didnt penetrate his body armor. Kevin Garrad from (3rd Infantry Division) was on a street patrol in Iraq and as he rounded the corner of a building an armed insurgent came from the other side. They were just a few feet from each other when they started open fire. The insurgent were killed and Kevin was shot in the chest. He didnt even know he was hit until later when he wanted to listen to music while cleaning his weapon. More >
