Refreshed!

Berlin Thunder Guy

Originally uploaded by elmada.

There’s nothing like a long walk in the evening to refresh the soul—and now that the sun’s not going down until 8:30, I’m actually willing to do it.

On today’s walk, I paused to mess with my iPod, and when I looked up, I realized a […]

Eurotrippen

Ok, I have to confess that one of my favorite blogs right now is Eurotrippen. The author has just moved to Dresden from America and has been having some terriffic experiences.

The two entries that stick out right now are Grossen titsens, revisited and The whore next door.

I’m hoping for a follow-up to the […]

Rebuilt!

The problem with rebuilt computers is that getting them functional again takes such a long time.

For example, getting Microsoft Outlook to recognize two different email accounts took half an hour and tweaking multiple adjustments—and now that I stop to think about it, I still need to add a third (rarely used) email account to […]

Total Coolness!

From Germany

Recently I was asked if the attached photo could be used to promote a German-Polish workshop that will deal “with cooperation between German and Polish authorities.”

Not seeing any real reason to object, I granted permission and now the photo can be found on the front of […]

almost back…

Computer’s repaired.

Now I am busy restoring settings and programs to where I want them to be. The biggest challenge, of course, is configuring the email program. I don’t really have the strength for that today though.

Will blog more tomorrow.

Rebuilding…

FYI: My computer is in the (in house) shop getting rebuilt from scratch. I should have it back tomorrow, but I won’t believe it until I see it. Wednesday seems more likely.

Consequence: No real blog update today.

On my current hate list: Black Eyed Peas for “What you gon’ do with all that junk? […]

Avoid Ft. Myers

School officials in Ft. Myers, Florida, USA, have decided to keep their kids safe by not allowing them to travel to London to participate in the 2007 New Year’s Day Parade.

It seems that the local school officials are a bit worried about Terrorism, not remembering that their own city isn’t that safe.

Heute

Today I had a stroke of luck!

I did my usual Sunday thing for Weimar, which involved going down to Café Laden and then for a walk around the city.

This time I returned home about 15 minutes before it rained.

Asside: My computer appears to have been infected with some spyware—so, I am holding […]

Gay Leipzig

Friday night I decided to scratch my gay itch—but this time instead of going to gay Berlin, I decided it was feasible to take a late train to Leipzig, enjoy the gay night-life and then take the first train back on Saturday morning.

And it was. I took the 21:50 train from Weimar arriving in […]
