The caption contest ends in the week after the break, starting June 16. Voting will be online, I suppose. Don’t be a Zeke, hand it in next week.

Although I avoid politics in class, particularly those from home. But,
here is a page full of great stuff.
Scroll on down to the bottom and catch the video with Mol Ivens, Al Franken and Bill O’reilly.
It goes 90 minutes. Bill O’Reilly is the flagship shout-show on Fox “news”. Al Franken is a cheeky lefty, also a longtime writer for SNL. I don’t really know anything about Ms Ivens, except that she made some brilliant comments around 52 minutes.

according to this article, Herman Hesse is the Bill Gates of West Africa.

And he seems like a nice guy, too.

Update on Salam Pax:

Althought I haven’t seen him with my own eyes, my suspicions about that mysterious Iraqi blogger have turned out to be for nought. Salam Pax is, apparently, exactly what he claimed to be, if we are to take this article at face value. And that is good, too; he is a most interesting read.
I am still wondering, though, if the phrase “book deal” truly hasn’t entered his mind yet…

Enough of that, let’s us scrape up the loose change under our couches and buy a big boat! Just four and a half million USD. But don’t worry; if we all go down there and make clucking noises at the poor detail work, we can surely shave off a hundred bucks.

oops… this entry had a bad link to the ttf data. I done fixed it now, and it is here. A thousand pardons.

Too much frozen pizza can drive you mad contest!

I spent M?nnertag working on a little tune for my friends at the BRN.

Claudia and some other friends are planning a puppet making workshop for the kiddies, and then a puppet show Saturday and Sunday at 19:00 in the Talstrasse. The Talstrasse is probably the least visited street at the festival, but it is truly the soul of BRN.

Anyway the girls have been working hard at putting together a spoof soap opera puppet show, and they enlisted me to make a theme song for it. I couldn’t back down; I bragged too much about how I studied music and even took a film scoring class. So, today I threw together this jam. Complete with a short little guitar solo by yours truly.

I won’t be in the puppet show, but I will most probably be ramming notes on garbage cans again this year at the corner of Tal and Louis.

No computery news today. I went out with my best gal to celebrate our 2 aniversary. Two whole years, and it seems like just 15 minutes. Underwater. Har har har…

We saw the Matrix film, as I might have already mentioned in class. Despite the critics, who are right, it is a fun film. I was surprised that it wasn’t as bad for me as I had expected (from reading reviews) and actually kind of philosophical for an action flick. Not sublimely deep, but deeper than expected.

And Claudi grudgingly admitted it wasn’t so bad, and capitulated and conceded that we’ll probably have to see part three this fall just to see how it all turns out.

I am a happy sheep. B????h.

Oh, look at the time. I’ve just spent an hour chatting with
alan.

He can talk, too, you know.
