Went to Germany and Austria from Sweden this summer, Air Berlin lost(well, i guess it's the baggage people at TXL that lost it really) my bag on the trip down to Germany for two days and for one week on the trip back from Austria.

They lost my bag twice on the same trip + the bags was apparently sent to Gothenburg on the Wednesday(we came back on a Sunday), but i didn't get the back until the Sunday a week from when we arrived home.

I don't really know what my favorite programming language is, i'm currently most efficient in perl and java, but that doesn't mean that they're my favorites. I've not found "the language" yet.
