2012
week 18
- todays wiki edits triggered by darkcode?
- a chat over 1 day involving haikus + editis
- just looked up the background info about International Workers' Day
- since I mentioned: "if I remember correctly in Germany Hitlers governmental administration introduced the 1st May as worker's day"
- seems my brain still remembers a few things from my history advanced course
- and I thought... how easy it is to manipulate people: just some specific editing on Wikipedia and people "believe" it (without checking other sources)
- keep in mind I am pro wikis
- started reading the tale of genji again, after a break of 2 weeks
- I guess it deserves more time than I actually devote to it :-(
week 17
unhealthy food and civilized techniques by some people:
- choco cake: the need for a plate (instead eating out of the package
- pizza: cutting half of the pizza into 4 pieces (instead 2)
week 16
- using the mouse too long: will increase likelihood not to notice that the keyboard cable is not plugged in anymore
- the present from Michael 15 years ago, comes quite handy
week 11
stories which indicate you have a certain age
- <me> you know things got bad when universities provide students with windows systems

- <me> I wonder what film material costs these days?
- <me> I guess it's not cheaper
week 10
- user complaining about getting requests by his friends to join other services...
- doesn't know if he should register...
- <me> the answer is based on emotions
- <me> how deep do you want to hurt 'em ?
- <me> you can just make an account and be a sleeper
- <user> I don't do that.
- <me> on the other hand: same question can also be asked of them:
- <me> how deep do they want to hurt you ?
- <me> since it costs time to create accounts
- <user> LOLOL
- <me> both parties should first be clear about this fundamental question
- ...
week 8
- Mongol invasions of Korea (1231–1259)
- <userSTN> what's everyone up to today? :O
- <me> satanistic rituals involving first borns
- <me> summons <userSTN> from the deep cave
- <me> and it's not like what you all now think
- <me> it's not that the 1st borns are sacrificed or a like
- <me> it's like always: 1st borns have more rights, they sacrifice the non-1st borns
week 7

week 2
week 1
Why do birds fly forward and don't e.g.
- fly backwards (though some may claim it (probably?) won't be possible)?
- dive for 4 weeks in the ocean? (note: it must be 4 and not 3)
- ...
...perhaps related to: Do you want accidents to appear? (Act II)
2011
week 52
- "sweet mocking mouth": interesting discussion about these 3 words from Peter + Wendy.
I had to take my German book to retranslate and I think he is buying a book in his native language
- a woman (with sexy voice) sighing into my ears
books
- Shaman hearing Alden Kimball's info about his deeds to Makwa-ikwa while he is ill.
- reading Noah Gordon's Shaman was fun again. I started it a few weeks ago, but Alden's statement was the thing I found I should summarize this time. Let's see what it will be at the next reading...
- Too bad I lost my The Physician (Medicus) somewhere, would also be fun rereading
- Started today another book from another favourite author: John Irving: The Water-Method Man
- He makes me always smile (at least at the begin of his books)
music
백지영 / Baek Ji Young's song The Woman 그여자 was one of the songs where I searched for lyrics and sang along
- I wonder if she'll have the same fate in my music habbits as Beat of Angel (BoA) ?
- Anyways: listened that song 96 times, first on 22 Jun 2011 + the man 그남자 111 times (also 22 Jun 2011 the first time)
week 51
buddy: I'd like such a beard too. How did you do that?
me: Nothing, really nothing (+ adding later: the genes, my parents achieved that for me)
