Happy Birthday Zooey!

9 Jahre ungezwungene Heiterkeit und Bloedelei.

9 years old and still on the mountains (sometimes...).flo.

It seems that people who search for a certain image on http://images.google.se are being directed to this blog. I'm having quite some hits from Sweden these days. No problem folks, just wanted to inform that there is not a single image on this site named "bill300.jpg". I'm sorry, google's got it messed up a bit.

The following is a skype IM conversation from this afternoon I had with a friend of mine:

"Hey, what happened to your name, mate?"

"My name? what do mean?"

"Well, you are called "xy"!

(note: I altered this name to xy because of privacy-concerns. It is the name of an ex-girlfriend of my brother. She is not one of my skype-contacts.)

"What?! What the f***?"

I am a bit puzzled, to say the least. My name in my skype profile had been changed to "xy", just as simple as that.

The other day I was travelling with the Austrian federal railways. It was a veeeery nice hot summer day, the platform was packed with huge backpacks and their perspiring owners. The train was fifteen minutes late - which is not the theme of today's post, though. Analyzing the reasons and ridiculing the responsibles of a 15 min. delay would be too much. Even for me.

The profession of soothsaying is very prestigious, today more so than ever before.

Well yes, summer is here.

In a provincial university town like Innsbruck, this means that as of July 1st all live is vacuumed out of the city. All the students go home, peace reigns. Most common last words are "...and have a nice summer", or "see you in autumn".

John runs from his home to his school at an average speed of 6 miles per hour, and then walks home along the same route at an average speed of 3 miles per hour. If his whole journey took one hour, how many miles is his home from his school?

9 6 4 3 2 I am currently preparing for the GRE (Graduate Record Examination).

So the Europeans are amongst themselves: There is no non-European team left in the worldcup. Some might say that after the dissapointing performance of the great European football nations in the last worldcup, this is only fair enough. True, but still it's kind of a pity that so many great teams were sent home (while others were not).

I would say that everything is possible. I don't believe in Portugal, but who knows, you can never tell.
