- In een nieuwsbrief schreef de ADSL-boer: Volgens de definitief afgegeven planning wordt uw verbinding in de maand maart in snelheid verdubbeld. De snelheid van uw huidige abonnement van 1024 / 512 kbps zal worden verhoogd naar 2048 / 1024 kbps. Fijn dat er dan nergens in die nieuwsbrief een exacte 'per wanneer' datum wordt genoemd. Nu zit ik al twee dagen lang met één oog naar een dom oranje modemlampje te gluren. |

- Qu'il est doux ce brouhaha d'une gare quand je l'attends. Chaque minute qui s'égraine sur les rondes horloges est une promesse Même si les rayons du soleil traversent difficilement le toit de cette gare, Il fait beau, il fait beau et un train l'emmène vers moi. Ce grondement sourd, ces bruits stridents du freinage, je les entends à peine, Déjà je la cherche du regard à l'intérieur des wagons. Elle est là, attendant tranquillement que tout le monde soit descendu. Apercevoir, alors qu'elle descend du train, un éclair de peau nue juste au dessus du bas Ne pas avoir le temps d'y penser, déjà elle est blottie dans mes bras.. |
