… you say “I’ve already run the program” when you want to say “I’ve already woken up”.

Tonight I fell on my bed when I arrived in my house. When my wife came in to the bedroom she asked if I was awake and I said: “Yes! I’ve already run the program”… And I remember that I tried to say that I was awake when I said that.

Today i saw on meio-bit a post with a video about the MPX, a version of X server which supports multi-touch.

The project is still in the beginning, but it has two greats advantages over MS Surface: it’s free and it’s available now!

And the most beautiful: here comes the Ubuntu:

Today is a special day, 1 year and 11 months ago I was marring. Today I have a pretty wife and a wonderful marriage!

But today is also special for another reason: today would be anniversary of my father, José Abdala Noel, deceased in 92.

It’s easy to find something about ourselves over the Internet, but as he died many years ago, there are no mention about him at Google, what is a big mistake. So I make here my homage and this special mention to the great mean he was.

I see a picture of a little child
standing alone
wondering where you are
I can’t believe how this child has grown
living this life
sometimes so alone
still I wish that I had one more chance
to have you hold me once again
but even though I know I can’t
you’ll hold me in heaven
(see you in heaven, Guardian)

Despite I miss him, I thank God for having always been a lovely and present Father, always on my side, and for having instructed me and lead me to where I am today.

Today my computer completes 3 years of life! 3 years ago I assembled him… By the way, I just remembered that he has my DNA. I cut my finger when I was mounting him, and when I saw, there was a little drop of my blood on the motherboard. Maybe it makes my computer stronger…

Much thing happens in the life of a computer in 3 years… I remember the relief that he felt when I eliminated totally Windows from him. He used Debian for a while, till know Ubuntu and “they live togheter and forever”.

They say that a 3-year-old computer is an ancient one, but he runs very fast with Ubuntu 7.04 + Beryl… Maybe I would celebrate installing Compiz Fusion over him…
