Stupid mailing programs

Anyone else having problems with hotmail and/or gmail? Yesterday was everything all right and today I'm unable to log in to either one.

Edit: Forget it, I restarted my PC and now all goes. Stupid technology. Its out to give me a heart attack.

Oh, and FF.Net is having a fit, too. Until now, favourite authors were listed alphabetically. Now I don't know what the order is, because it sure like hell isn't ordered by the time I've added them.

A tragic St. Stephen's Day

Our annual St. Stephen's celebration turned into a tragedy yesterday, due to a sudden, violent storm. You can read the details and a short analysis here. Unfortunately, like everything else in these days, this, too, is already being used as a tool in the politic fight during which the right-wing opposition is trying to win at least the communal elections in spring.

I'm completely disgusted.
