Unarmed but dangerous

Anyway, our chief weapons are fear, surprise, and ruthless efficiency.. and... well, amongst our weaponry are such elements as fear, surprise...

After FOSDEM, Georg Greve decided to have a couple (Welsh couple) of days at our place in Miraflores, Madrid. This place is slowly becoming the Free Software Spanish Mecca, I thought. Particularly our place, nearby the mountains. That is what I thought on friday.

Cardinal! Poke him with the soft cushions! You know our four weapons are surprise, fear and... our weapon is.. er..

Talking about surprise, you had to have seen my face while talking to Richard Stallman on the phone on saturday night:

- hi?
- hello?
- I'm in the airport
- who?
- Richard
- where?
- In Madrid
- what?
- Are you coming?
- But.. [Thinking:our chief weapons are... weapons... surprise...] ok just wait there.

It seems that there was a mistake and we did not know that Richard was coming. You know, our four weapons are surprise. But what a nice surprise. Biggles! Put him in the Comfy Chair!

Ok so now even the Mecca is a joke in comparison to my place that night. You can check it out at the Kitchen Summit:

It was all fun. Here we are, left to right, Georg Greve, myself, Xavi Reina, and Richard Stallman. María Ruiz took the pic.

Richard took his famous chocolates (at last I could taste them; he was very kind bringing them again. Biggles! give it another turn!)

-After all this surprise, surprise, and in forth place surprise, are you going to confess?

-I'm unarmed and dangerous and my four chief weapons are surprise

-That's only one of them, heretic, confess!

-I Apologize and Resign (c)

-AAARG! Spam, spam, spam, now you will be in the comfy chair until lunch time!
