Just because the term is “Phishing” rather than “Fishing” for information doesn’t mean that littering your e-mails with grammatical and spelling mistakes is a good idea. If you are going to target people in Germany with mails at least learn a little about the background details.
I must admit, you almost got be this morning by […]
….at least not in Germany.
Walking down the main shopping street of Stuttgart today there were (as always) a couple of stands where people were espousing their political and/or cultural viewpoints. I’m often overwhelmed by the need to engage these people in meaningful dialogue. Okay, I’m often overwhelmed by the need to engage animal rights demonstrators […]
I think I’ve used up far too many words on pathetic little men doing awful things of late, so time for something else. “But, but, that’s why we come here, to read about your ridiculous escapades”, I hear you cry. Well, today I’m in a somewhat foolish mood and am directing you elsewhere…
1. First up […]
Fuckers!
11:42 CET: Mass E-mail from “Nick” - who works disturbingly near to Tavistock Square “I’m okay. Bus blew up in front of office…. it’s split in two….there’s a leg on the pavement”
I’m also quickly tiring of hearing the phrase “England ist ein Kriegsführende Nation” - much like the World Trade Centre (which, this thankfully […]
In the spectrum of emotions, from abject despair to total ecstasy, I’m not quite sure how wide that portion in the middle – the “doing okay” wavelengths – where we spend most of our lives is. I suspect it’s quite wide, for despite the, shall we say, “setbacks” of the past few months, I’ve felt […]
Nothing reminds me more of my German ex-girlfriend than stories of men who have their genitalia severed and cooked, he said, nervously glancing downwards before referring to an old, explanatory post.
Yep, Armin Meiwes, the Kannibalen von Rotenburg is back in court, appealing his sentence of 8 1/2 years for manslaughter after he killed, cooked and […]
“(and to the pedant who starts “actually” and then continues by citing an episode and series number, I can only say that I don’t care, and I can trade in common misperceptions if I want to).”
He said. Could he be referring to me? I hope not. After all I don’t even know what a Corby […]
1. Yes I’m in England now (flew to Manchester last night), so it’s back to slow internet connections and rebuilding dry stone walls (more about that later) until the 29th when I’ll fly to London for New Year. Contact by e-mail in the meantime.
2. Just like the BBC, my heart bleeds for those robbers that […]
I’ve been playing about with those avatar-making programs so that I can have an image of what I almost look like in my instant messenger box and it’s impossible to get an honest representation. They don’t do wrinkles, for starters. One I found that I liked let you give your height, weight, build and so […]
