A Dane living in The Netherlands |

I realise I am living in a little time bubble - because of the language challenge I experience, I have no way of understanding the news. Furthermore, I've never been used to use online news resources. The two things together mean that yesterday Ruth, an online friend of mine, had to tell me about the hostage situation in Moscow - I'm quite horrified that people can do things like this. I have seen it over and over again in my 33 year long life, but I'm just as terrified whenever it happens...maybe I'm naïve?! I took a look at the danish newspaper Politiken where I also read they should have captured the Washington sniper. Maybe Politiken will grant me a longlife subsription for mentioning them here, for I could really use it...I hate feeling left out from what's going on in the world! --- Ruth also showed me how to gain access to the three extra danish letter: æ,ø and å by altering the language under the keyboard setting in Windows. Now I got a little icon, so I quickly can swap between danish end english keyboard. How convenient...and how hidden that feature was! *** - | posted by Tommy on 9:55 AM ---ooo--- |
