Test madness

Sunday, October 31st, 2004

I know I’ve taken at least the OS one before, but anyway…
Which file extension are you?

Which OS are you?

Which Nigerian spammer are you?

To be or not to be

Sunday, October 31st, 2004

I meant to post a longer entry but I was caught offguard by a longer phone conversation and now I don’t feel like writing a lot. Just one question: Should I keep my sideburns or have them cut off?

del.icio.us

Thursday, October 28th, 2004

What the hell is del.icio.us? What’s the point, how does it work, why would I want to use it? I know it’s got something to do with bookmarks and combined with RSS you can do some fancy stuff with it. Or so says your common nerd. I can’t be bothered to read their about page, [...]

The all new inet

Monday, October 25th, 2004

Oasis have had their official website redesigned for the first time since shortly after SOTSOG came out. It must have been about the time they released “Who feels love?” (what a shitty tune btw) as a single, since the image of Liam walking down that hill was from their video shoot in Death Valley. I [...]

On a more serious note

Monday, October 25th, 2004

I recently stumbled across this article, dealing with how the RAF (Royal Air Force, not Rote Armee Fraktion) destroyed vast parts of German cities during WW2 attacks and how “our British friends” are kind of apologizing for this now. Germany and its citizens paid a hefty price for the madness of one man and his [...]

Dollhouse, week 1

Sunday, October 24th, 2004

Probably the dumbest pun there is, but anyway. 0-2 motherfucker! We won, and even better our defense remained unbeaten. I’m among those who prefer a 1-0 to a 4-3, so that was really neat. And the U23/amateur team won 1-4 against… someone. Now they’re #1 again and even though they can’t get relegated to second [...]

Vertical Horizon

Thursday, October 21st, 2004

Probably the only sensible thing I’ve done in the last couple of weeks - I bought “Everything you want” by Vertical Horizon off ebay. Today the CD arrived. Yay! It’s a truly a great album if you’re this kind of radio friendly college rock/pop.

Goosestep?

Wednesday, October 20th, 2004

In an interview with the “beeb”, our foreign minister “complains” about the negative image Germans have in Britain. While I think he has a point there, I also think it’s a rather typical British thing to mock and dislike just about everybody but themselves. They live on an island after all. Maybe it’s just [...]

Where’s my terrorist cook book?

Monday, October 18th, 2004

I don’t know why I’m watching this to begin with, but this show “the most annoying thing of the nineties” on Pro7 just called Oasis by far the worst thing to have happened during the nineties. That’s justification enough for me to commit multiple homicide, yeh?

Goodbye Toppi!

Saturday, October 16th, 2004

Wie soeben im “Zett-Dee-Eff” Sportstudio verkündet wird der HSV morgen auf einer Pressekonferenz mit 99%iger Wahrscheinlichkeit die Ablösung des Cheftrainers Klaus Toppmöller durch Thomas Doll bekanntgeben. Wurde auch langsam Zeit….
