36. Hi, my name is Björn. I'm a 3rd-semester MSc student. I already got all advanced courses in my specialization area (Software Engineering), so I'm glad there is an interesting course from another field in this semester. I use to list stuff like jogging, swimming as my hobbies, but actually they are more of a necessity since what I really like is spending time with my girlfriend and all my flat mates which always involves LOTS of beer... Hence, there is no choice but doing lots of sport. Oh, and I play the guitar since I'm 6. I don't know any links to jokes that are actually funny. Since I assume this is about posting a link rather than telling a joke, I'll post a link to a great TV Show, that most of you certainly know already, anyway. Here it is: http://www.surfthechannel.com/show/101.html Björn
