Moving the Roadblock
- February 13, 2009 - 2 comments

Over the last two years, I have repeatedly come across a roadblock in my personal development. In brief words and in sparing you the details, the roadblock was about not knowing how to cope with some events in my early past. It seems, from whichever angle I looked upon those events, they'd leave me bitter, scarred, unable to embrace life and keep me from fully becoming the person I think I am at the core of my being. Then a friend sent me on a press trip to Texas - which turned into a transfor…
Rescue Forces avert near Tragedy on Lake Woerthsee
- December 22, 2008 - 8 comments

I happened to be around and have my camera with me when this happened on the lake today: A mother had her six months baby and a two-and-a-half-year old with her, all three of them being on skates. When she approached a spot of thin ice, bystanders shouted warnings her way, but it was too late: She broke through the surface, which was a mere half inch thick. As she fell in the water, she lost grip of the stroller with the baby that she had been pushing in front of her. The stroller rolled on and…

Happy Thanksgiving!

... to all my American friends and contacts! Enjoy the bird-slicing! ;-)
Birdsong - an Internet Radio Station devoted to bird sounds
- November 25, 2008 - 2 comments

I know, this may read crazy: I just came across this station on the web, who play nothing but the sounds and songs of different birds! It's winter here and I'm missing summer terribly, so this radio stream creates a summer atmosphere right in my living room - crazy, but nice (and nobody gets hurt, either ;-)) P.S.: The link may not work in your browser - the station is actually listed on iTunes under "radio" and "Ambient".
Finally!
- November 23, 2008 - 8 comments

At least I got it completed for now: I managed to add a melody and solo track to one of my tunes. Please visit me on my iLike -site, where I plan on adding material I perform live as well as one or the other original tune I intend to come up with. I will also add vocals in the process - for now, it's basically instrumental stuff first. It's a free download - you can listen to it on the web or download it locally. Feel free to do so and let me know, what you think.
I didn't know, I owned an Enterprise ;-)

Just found this ;-) I spotted those trucks all across Canada and the USA, when I travelled there last time.
Pure Genius
- November 7, 2008

Tonight was a special night: It's been just a few weeks, since I first spotted him on YouTube: Andy McKee, delivering a killer arrangement and performance of Toto's 80ies hit "Africa" with nothing else but six strings and ten fingers - I was blown away! Later that week, I barged into the little acoustic guitar and repairs shop just up the street from where I live to share my find with the owner. He just silently looks at me, ushers me towards his "marketing" desk and fishes for…
Funniest shit in a long time
- October 4, 2008

I swear, I haven't laughed this hard in quite some time: I rented a movie today, which - going by the title - sounded like just another romantic comedy. But... it's written, directed and produced by Julie Delpy, a French atrice, who currently lives in Los Angeles. So.. it's loaded with funny twists of the different mentalities in the States and France. Check out the trailer - it gets so gross at times, you can't help but laugh (well, at least I think so ;-)):
Funny commercial
- September 16, 2008 - 3 comments

Found this on YouTube the other day - hilarious! The words read: - cow - jackass - witch - dork - whore - quiet! Unfortunately, the joke works better in German, as the last two words are made of the same characters, just different sequence. But I still find the idea funny enough, how they form words with those characters made from pasta ;-) Enjoy:
Variation
- August 15, 2008 - 2 comments

Tried a new variation today. Ingredients: - Salmon, about 7 ounces (200 grams) - Thai Rice Noodles - Handcut Fries from Spring Potatoes - Yellow Squash - Optional: Yellow Bell Pepper - Ground Black Pepper - Ground Sea Salt - Thai Curry Relish - Virgine Olive Oil - Virgine Coconut Juice (13.5 ounces, 400 ml or more) Spread the olive oil on a coated pan and put it on high temperature. Meanwhile, cut the potatoes in halves (longitudinally), cut again sideways, after that slice…
Stalking
- July 31, 2008 - 5 comments

I need to talk about stalking today. wikipedia says this about stalking: "Stalking is the obsessive following, observing, or contacting of another person, or the obsessive attempt to engage in any of these activities. This includes following the person to certain places, to see where they live or what the person does on a daily basis, it also includes seeking and obtaining the person's personal information in order to contact him or her; e.g. looking for his or her details on computers, el…
Gratitude
- July 28, 2008 - 7 comments

Awwwww... how I love those mild summer nights! I am so grateful for the place I live in! On nights like this, where we still had 68F/20 Celsius at midnight, I like to step out on the terrace, prefererrably just wearing underwear, sometimes my bathrobe, and look into the nightsky with its gazillions of bright stars, sometimes complemented by the moon. Tonight is such a night: It's incredibly warm, I just returned from the open-air cinema, where I met a friend and we watched No country for old me…
Business Speak
- July 27, 2008 - 3 comments

I've been flattering myself into thinking, I was quick to grasp things. I now have to admit to myself (and all of you reading) that I'm not - I'm naive... still. Hard to believe, but unfortunately, it seems to be a fact. In the current case, we're talking about business expressions. For all of you, who aren't exposed to business speak, here's a little vocabulary help. Let me give you five introductory examples - (a) will be the expression used, b) what's actually meant by it: 1 a. "Can I call…
One Door Closed
- July 25, 2008 - 7 comments

I'm hoping, it will fall shut completely and stay closed for good. The good news: Other doors have opened instead. I'm hoping for those to open as widely as a horseback riding ranche's gate.
George Carlin rocks (or rather: Used to rock...)
- July 12, 2008 - 2 comments

Just how could this guy escape me?
Deal!
- July 9, 2008 - 3 comments

So, it's a deal now: The publishing company, who contacted me, have licensed my image for an upcoming title of their list of books. We'll be signing an agreement and the deal will be formalized that way. I feel like I should celebrate this a little - oh, well... maybe having my third tequila-flavoured beer tonight may count as a little celebration? ;-)
