A babysitter, a babysitter, my kingdom for a babysitter!

Finally swapped to summer tyres. Good thing it was a sunny and warm day, bad thing I'm still having a cold that makes me need to stop to cough and recover my breath all the time.

Perhaps there won't be any more Nobel Prizes in litterature after too many members of the academy have left, they're not enough members to make decisions or bring in new members, and not even the King is allowed to step in.

While watching the WC in synchronized team skating, I notice it takes one man to lift one woman, but three women to lift another woman. I also wonder if the Canadian team had synchronized hair dye or if all of them naturally have the exact same dark brunette hair colour.

When you attempt to tidy up your apartment, and end up thinking about Churchill: "This is not the end. This is not even the beginning of the end. Perhaps it is the end of the beginning"...

My manboobs hurt when I walk into door posts.

The more unpredictable people are, the more important it is that you ask for specific details before doing something for them.

In 10 days, I will likely never watch TV on a CRT again. I gave up hunting the jungle that is digital boxes, and ordered myself a new 24" bedroom TV instead.

Woo, TV is already waiting to be picked up at the post office.
As for keeping CRT's, at the moment I've got three 14" TVs, two 1084's, one green mono monitor, one CGA/RGB monitor and one MDA monitor in the apartment, as well as a number of TFT/LCD screens. I have no intention throwing the old one way, although it has a few minor issues. And yes, I've got even more CRT screens in the basement...

Sometimes I feel like Barbie.

This cough is getting on my nerves. Soon I'll try wrap myself in ginger, if it really helps.

The Germans seem like a tough people. In two icehockey games, German players got knocked out and were taken off ice, yet they managed to return to the same game a bit later.

Hockey players in general seem to be pretty tough. I remember a story about Theoren Fleury (I think that's how it's spelled) getting his tooth knocked out and playing the rest of the game with an exposed nerve. I even remember a coach taking a puck to the forehead and staying to coach the rest of the game. A far cry from pro soccer players.

When stores advertise about the upcoming Valentine's Day with special price on windshield washer fluid, I'm rather happy I am single.

I am not much for long benches.

There, Compaq 486 set up as "games kiosk" though only with 6 games so far.

Few things are so exciting as when you don't know what to do, but are supposed to already have it done.

The very first Swedish importer of Apple Computers was a company specialised in trading with meat and diamonds.

Stomach ache is something one is supposed to have after Christmas, not before. :-/

Heard at work: "Never trust anyone but yourself". How true!

Is it a sign of having reached a certain age when you start to get email spam about nighttime bladder control solutions?
-
Tonight in a store I saw a boy, perhaps 8-9 years old totally engulfed in playing a game on his smartphone. What did he play? An emulated version of Sonic the Hedgehog, of course!

My cable TV provider is going all digital on December 11. It means I can kiss my bedroom CRT TV goodbye, unless I invest in a digital receiver. :-/

It appears that black is the new black.
