User:Solitude

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

I'm taking a Wikibreak for at least a while, I will hop by to check messages but 
I really can't dedicate more time to the project at the moment, 
I need to take care of some more important things right now.

Hello stranger...leave me a message!

I am a Dutch student at the University of Twente, The Netherlands, currently trying to get my masters degree (MSc) in Telematics. If you'd watch me through a pigeonhole, you'd find I'm somewhat of an ESTJ.

One of my personal Wikipedia goals is brightening up more articles with good photos. I feel we need much more of them in a lot more articles, especially portraits, very hard to come by. Recently I bought a Cybershot P150 and started on a personal Wikipedia photo album, tell me what you think!

I have no clue how I came across Wikipedia, it was somewhere in early 2004 and I didn't really stick around at the time. When I visited months later it had grown in this huge lumbering beast, begging for my caring attention, behold: my first edit as a user.

Articles written from scratch

My subsections

Misc. useful links

Fans, as in: they use "my" sig ;)

I hereby award you with a barnstar for being exceptionally friendly and helpful. Mgm^(talk) 10:08, Nov 26, 2004 (UTC)

This one cracks me up every time, from Wikipedia:Bad jokes and other deleted nonsense:

[edit] Peugeot 206

The Peugeot 206 is the fastest production car in the world to date. It can out sprint Thrust SSC up-hill and down dale. The engine (primarily hand-crafted from solid blocks of gold) Has enough Horse Power to launch the car into space and visit neighbouring planets, all by using pubic hair for fuel.

The exhaust on the 206 is so large that it has been know to transport families of illegal imigrants in to Great Britain from Outer Space.

The 206 is great. Buy One.
