<p>Nevertheless, my keyboard looks very confused now, with dot and comma in the top-left corner, letters in a strange order and key heights inappropriate for their positions.</p>
<p>I would write more but it&#8217;s still hard&#8230;</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Here are the six differences and similarities between Linux and sex, as discovered by <a href="http://linuxhelp.blogspot.com/2006/03/humor-six-relations-between-sex-and.html">linuxhelp.blogspot.com</a>.</p>
<ol style="text-align: justify;"><span class="fullpost"></p>
<li>Sex is like candy. The more you have it, the more you like it. Linux is also like candy. The more you use it, the more you fall in love with it.</li>
<li>The first time you have sex, your spouse complains because you are persistent. Same way, when you start using Linux, your spouse again complains because now you are negligent (to her).</li>
<li>It is prudent to practice safe sex the same way as it is safer to use a robust firewall in Linux.</li>
<li>Sex is pervasively  practiced the world over. Linux is slowly getting there bit by bit.</li>
<li>It is alright to have sex any number of times as long as it is with your life partner. Similarly, you can install Linux any number of times as long as it is on your machine and not your colleague&#8217;s.</li>
<li>Using sex and Linux together in a sentence is nice because they (kind of) rhyme.</li>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>UNIX Airways</strong></p>
<p>Everyone brings one piece of the plane along when they come to the airport. They all go out on the runway and put the plane together piece by piece, arguing non-stop about what kind of plane they are supposed to be building.</p>
<p><strong>Air DOS</strong></p>
<p>Everybody pushes the airplane until it glides, then they jump on and let the plane coast until it hits the ground again. Then they push again, jump on again, and so on &#8230;</p>
<p><strong> Mac Airlines</strong></p>
<p>All the stewards, captains, baggage handlers, and ticket agents look and act exactly the same. Every time you ask questions about details, you are gently but firmly told that you don&#8217;t need to know, don&#8217;t want to know, and everything will be done for you without your ever having to know, so just shut up.</p>
<p><strong>Windows Air</strong></p>
<p>The terminal is pretty and colorful, with friendly stewards, easy baggage check and boarding, and a smooth take-off. After about 10 minutes in the air, the plane explodes with no warning whatsoever.</p>
<p><strong>Windows NT Air</strong></p>
<p>Just like Windows Air, but costs more, uses much bigger planes, and takes out all the other aircraft within a 40-mile radius when it explodes.</p>
<p><strong>Linux Air</strong></p>
<p>Disgruntled employees of all the other OS airlines decide to start their own airline. They build the planes, ticket counters, and pave the runways themselves. They charge a small fee to cover the cost of printing the ticket, but you can also download and print the ticket yourself. When you board the plane, you are given a seat, four bolts, a wrench and a copy of the Seat-HOWTO.html. Once settled, the fully adjustable seat is very comfortable, the plane leaves and arrives on time without a single problem, the in-flight meal is wonderful. You try to tell customers of the other airlines about the great trip, but all they can say is, &#8220;You had to do what with the seat?&#8221;</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>A couple of days ago, the KDE project released the first beta of KDE 4.1. This version is suppose to bring stability as well completeness to KDE 4.0. I downloaded it soon after Kubuntu had packages for it, and it leaves me with mixed (but mostly good) emotions. </p>
<p>Although this is a beta, the desktop itself is very stable. I had problems logging out before, and they&#8217;re gone now. I wish the same could be set for the new apps, which keep crashing on me on certain tasks. </p>
<p>One great feature KDE4.1 brings are the Personal Information Manager application, which have finally been ported to KDE4. Kontact, KMail and Akregator, along with all their plugins are functional. However, these programs don&#8217;t seem to be thoroughly tested, as they often crash when changing certain settings.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>One day, all of the world&#8217;s famous physicists decided to get together for a tea luncheon. Fortunately, the doorman was a grad student, and able to observe some of the guests&#8230; </p>

<li>van der Waals forced himeself to mingle. </li>
<li>Wien radiated a colourful personality. </li>

<li>Stefan and Boltzman got into some hot debates. </li>
<li>Everyone was attracted to Tesla&#8217;s magnetic personality. </li>

As you can see, Opeke is progressing well. There&#8217;s all kinds of new shapes (four, actually, but I&#8217;ve really simplified creating new ones), and all kinds of new buttons (nine already).
