and he changed his name and religion and wasn't looked at with suspicion nor was he deported to Quantanamo

by all means! I'm booked for the next 2 weekends but after that I got lots of time.

the Force is with us =)

current book: The Memoirs of Sherlock Holmes

yes, common sense has been completely abolished, it seems. The young people nowadays believe everything the computer tells them. If it says 2+2 = 5 then they don't even realize that there's a mistake. The instant they switch the computer on, they switch their brains off. It's a bit like people and c...

almost weekend =) It's good to see Terran up and running smoothly. My boards were a bit bitchy today but I managed to talk them into working properly. Apparently the respective database account passwords got scrambled a little. No big deal, though, I simply changed them and edited the config files a...

I received a mail from Lunarpages saying that coming Tuesday they will upgrade their servers to php 6. I am not certain if that concerns only my server or all of them. Since Terran is hosted on a Lunarpages-Server as well, it might be a good idea to check what board version this is and whether it is...

indeed. I'm glad that girl survived (so far..). Let's just hope that she didn't suffer brain damage. With head injuries you never know. At 16 there are few possibilities why she might have done it: love sickness or mobbing seem to be the most likely ones. Or a really silly attempt at taking a selfie...

Sunday afternoon here. Awfully hot and I just had my 3rd ice cream this year. NOw my belly is cold but the rest of me is still hot :? Whitsun is short for Whitsuntide aka Pentecost. Like Easter it's 2 holidays in Germany: Sunday plus Monday. I'll have a 3 day week as tomorrow is the last day of my b...

I see what you mean, but couldn't you still order seeds online and sow some fast germinating flowers or radishes or the like directly into your garden patch? I understand that the rules say it doesn't really matter what you grow there, as long as you grow something. And these fast-growing plants can...

indeed, but apart from a splitting headache everything has gone well so far (but then it's only 10:40 am here...).

I'm going to spend a few days with my family, so don't worry if you don't see me online for a while. And happy Whitsun to everyone

How about making your own tomato plant? Just take a seed or two out of a tomato and plant it. My mom uses yoghurt beakers as pots and sows her tomatos indoors in February. By mid-May, after the frosty week, she puts them out. I grow mine in clear plastic bottles: I cut the upper half off, fill the b...

Belated congrats to Naaht and KJ It'll be fun to see a few new terrans around in a couple of years =) LOL TNG: Terran - Next Generation

I completely forgot about Mothers Day. Fortunately, we are so poor that I can't be disinherited

That cat cafe sounds like an awesome idea =) I hope they'll manage to start one. Did you enjoy the museum? We have a huge natural science museum in Munich where you can try out all sorts of physical and chemical experiments. I particularly love the maths department - you wouldn't believe what cool g...

Happy Birthday to the two of you A pity we can only celebrate together online. A RL meeting would be so much fun =)

Very belated happy birthday!
Sounds like you had a lot of fun. I hope the year continues like this!

Happy belated birthday! I'm glad you had a really good day.
I take it you even had good weather? (Over here, we had a blizzard )
Have an absolutely great year! *huggles ghostie*

LOL thanks =) Alas, no men for me, clothed or au naturel . And no birthday cake. On the contary: I spent the weekend baking ham croissants, spinach-cheese pastries, a russian apple tart and a second cake for the traditional b-day breakfast at my office on Monday. That second cake turned out to be a ...

might also be a software prob: my PC has started to lock every now and then. The problem occurred first immediately after a patchday.

we'll see if the Falcon is hiding among the junk

about the same here which is considered an unusual heatwave for this time of year
We had snow yesterday, sun this morning and now it's preparing to rain. April appears to be a little bit early this year


Happy Valentines Day to all of you!

it's totally spring-ish here! Warm rainy, birds sing like crazy. For the next 2 days the forecast predicts sleet, though. The dentist managed to find an anesthetic that does not interfere with my meds (halleluja!) and exchanging the filling took only a few minutes even though it was almost a root ca...

I may be a pessimist but I am quite convinced that human stupidity is the only universe that's borderless and that it's able to travel at any speed imaginable.

Jim , can you get narrow-leaf plantain (aka ribwort plantain) tea at your pharmacy? The botanical name is Plantago lanceolata . https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plantago_lanceolata It tastes rather nice (remotely of liquorice) and is the best cough remedy I know. We have a flood again - fortunately on...

Let's hope it's not infectuous! What we need is a galactic Dr Jenner

I liked his music. But his outfits and his haircuts....

^^loved that chemical one!
