I am funny. And I have an unusually boring life, at least I think so. I like things that start with a “C”, like comic books, chicken sandwiches, computers, cheese, chocolate, corn flakes, comedy, and classic movies. I like languages and linguistics. I read a lot about biology, specifically about evolution. I like programming, although I am not very good at it; I could be better if I put myself to it. I like penguins. I like British and Jewish humour. I like my friends;  I couldn’t wish for better friends, perhaps for richer friends. I am usually kidding. Unless I talk about food. I attend Shabbat services every week and go to most festival services. I like the English language. I was born and grew up in West-Berlin. I don’t like football. I love Dublin. I love Ireland. I am a Mac user, although I work on applications that use Microsoft’s .NET platform. I like UNIX. I was an IBM OS/2 user in the 1990s. I talk about computers too much. I talk about most things too much. My Hebrew spelling is terrible. I can’t count.
