    Where is Guinea-Bissau???

    I found this nice quiz when surfing the web and thought that you would also like to test your geography knowledge. It's different from the popular cumulative geo quiz, for now you have to know where a certain country (or state) is situated. It’s fun, but also a good (?) way to learn the...

    My hobby numero uno is pistol shooting! Then I like biking, walking, in-line skating, cross-country skiing, exercising, badminton, swimming and playing occasionally different ball games (basketball, rink-bandy, floorball).

    Heyerdahl and Gagarin

    Just to let you know: There's a song about Yuri Gagarin, in Finnish, though. I can't remember the whole song, but the singer asks Gagarin something like this: "What does Africa look like? Can you see Finland, or are there clouds?" The chorus: "Fly Juri Gagarin, fly fly! Fly Juri Gagarin! Come...

    Age of Empires

    AOE II (Age of Kings) is a very good game. Get it and the Conquerors expansion! I bought both four months ago. Before that I didn't know anything about real time strategy games, so it required lots of learning until I won first time at the easiest level. First things I learnt: You have to be...

    Poll: what is your favourite piece of fruit?

    It's probably due to my limited English knowledge, but I think, that fruit means just fruits (including oranges, apples, melons, pears, bananas etc.) and not vegetables (tomatoes, cucumber etc.) or berries (strawberries, raspberries, whortleberries etc.) Anyway, my favorite fruits are orange...

    manualless problems

    When I play civ the whole day very intensively, the game continues in my dreams, too. It's then funny to wake up and realize that the "dream game" brought some even good ideas how to go on with the "real game". Anybody else dreamed about building cities and conquering the world?
