xgrr.de – the whole not the half

I came across this nice picture. Just another reason to love Firefox!

I really find it astonishing what impact music can have. Last winter during the time I was concocting my BSc thesis I was very intensely listening to Trouble Over Tokyo. As a matter of fact it was playing almost all the time, during jogging writing and in the car.

This summer I didn’t listen to it at all. Probably because I couldn’t stand it anymore due to too much listening during winter. Now it is winter again though and suddenly I have the urge to play it again.

And then when I finally find the time to tune in I have this strong sense of déjà vu. You almost can remember the emotional status and feelings you had before some place else and in a different time.

This is not always preferred… For instance I can’t listen to System of A Down – Toxicity anymore. During the time I listened to it very intensely I was splitting up with my then girlfriend. Still every time I hear the song I can remember the exact moment back then.

This perfect example of Austrian-German relations found today in Bludenz, Austria.

Just found this passing by. Enjoy!

Pfeeeuw. I can’t wait until 24 returns. Not long folks – we’re almost there! In the mean time enjoy:

I just recieved this from a colleague of mine. Hilarious:

Guts or balls – There is a medical distinction.

We’ve all heard about people having guts or balls, but do you really know the difference between them?

In an effort to keep you informed, the definitions are listed below:

GUTS – Is arriving home late after a night out with the guys, being met by your wife with a broom, and having the guts to ask: ‘ Are you still cleaning, or are you flying somewhere?’

BALLS – Is coming home late after a night out with the guys, smelling of perfume and beer, lipstick on your collar, slapping your wife’s butt and saying ‘You’re next, Chubby.’

I hope this clears up any confusion on the definitions.

Medically speaking there is no difference in the outcome.

Both result in death.

I just found this strolling through the internet. It seems to reporter started to collect obituaries which are a bit unusual. Now they published a book about them. A collection of the best you can find on Welt Online.

A new one. Too bad I still got no internet at the moment. But I’ll won’t keep it from you. The Arctic Monkeys have a new studio album out. This one is produced by Queens of the Stone Age front Josh Homme. Recorded somewhere in the Californian desert it sounds promising. As mentioned before I can’t listen to it yet but we’ll see to that and then you’ll get it straight
