It’s snowing… so I guess it’s cold!
Coming from Bris-vegas we know about snow on a conceptual level, much like we understand that protons are subatomic particles, and that women can’t drive (heh heh… sorry, cheap shot I know :-). We even used to create snow as kids by opening up the freezer door and scraping a fork over the frozen condensed [...]

The work christmas drinks and the hangover aftermath
In a lot of ways I am relieved we are now on the other side of christmas! Finally it means a chance to really start relaxing (at least for one day before my new years eve friends fly in en masse). The last week before christmas was pretty much 12 hour days at work, which [...]

Christmas, new years eve and making this year the make it year!
I can’t believe that christmas is almost upon us! It always seems like the last two months just fly past in a few heartbeats. Every year it’s the same; we get to the beginning of November and then time starts to speed up and we begin to get pulled toward christmas like it’s a blackhole. [...]

Shakespeare’s sweet love
Oh how the hearts of two lovers beats with such fierce force. The will of man cannot extinguish such passion as his will is not equal to such intensity for love is greater than all the elemental forces of the world. But alas the will of a queen is not that of ordinary men. And [...]

Feeling inspired!
“Work like you don’t need the money, love like you’ve never been hurt, and dance like noone’s watching.” Jared Kesler/ DJ Code
I came across this little peice of wisdom today while browsing the site of my favourite internet radio station ETN FM and immediately it struck a chord with me. (I totally love the music [...]

A strange wierdo from a past life fades into the past again.
You know it’s funny how fate sometimes brings wierdos back into your life that you had thought you’d left behind. Whenever this happens I always wonder whether there is some deep significance to it, or if it’s just a cruel coincidence. About a month ago I came into the office where I work, and I [...]

Online Games; the future of the civilisation?
As my friends and guild buddies will all know, I am a fairly enthusiastic player - at this point in my life - of a game called World of Warcraft. Well it’s called a game, but that conjures up an image of something on an xbox or playstation, or a single player game on your [...]

Michelangelo was sooooo gay!
A friend of mine took me to the Teylers Museum in Haarlem, which is north of Amsterdam by 20 minutes on the highway, to see an exhibition of Michelangelo drawings. For those of you who actually got an education which included art studies of some sort you will know he was the greatest genius of [...]

Why does it always rain when I want to go somewhere?
Right well I’m still in the flat, because just as I decided to go, it’s started to piss down rain.
Why is it whenever I want to go somewhere it starts fucking raining?
Is this some kind of cosmic conspiracy to keep me wet and cold? Damn well feels like it. Yes, Europe in winter time, isn’t [...]

Music is cool; and an idea for a book!
Well I was on my way out, but I am sitting here listening to the new Moby CD ‘Hotel’. Jezuz this is a class peice of music. And his cover sleeve is such a great peice of writing (right up to the part where he loses it and talks about being a robot). I find [...]
