With Ian Hancock, IBM Tivoli Storage specialist who is not John Hancock. John Hancock is a phrase used for signature.We were waiting to be seated and had a couple of beers.Kamenitza is the local beer. Good.All of a sudden the waiting girls started dancing.Menus are full of selection. Salad galore. Salad-o-rama. My kind of place. Tropicana Salad and Cheese bits in bread. Nice place. And waaay cheap. Drinks and food for two = 10 EUR ???
With a freek, ex-colleauge Marek Swierad. A friend. And another friend in crisis. Identity. Identity Manager. Just wanted a drink. Got an apetizer. Classy place. Not a lot of people. Monday evening. Strange evening. People changing. Was nice anyway.

Immediately after landing the ambulance crew would board the plane and take the girl. Presumably still alive. We were all shocked. Imagine: one day you board a plane, take off alive and land dead. In the evening I met Alex Wahl, Tivoli Channel Manger EMEA and we had a beer. And a greek salad. Long live ...
(Dušan) Dusan Spalevic (Spalević) was very kind and picked me up in front of IBM Russian Federation. We discussed about cultural difference between Russians and all other people all the way in the car and also at home through the evening. I have also been introduced to Mark and Victoria (I hope I remembered the name right - sorry Dule). Dinner was Serbian - pasulj and sopska - since they have a Serbian restaurant in the same building. Very tasty. Served with good portions of vodka. What else ...
