All the ... small thinigs ...

While going back through some of the drafts for the posts, I stumbled, like a wee drunken dwarf, upon the following lines:

This will be a rather cheesy post. I will talk about love.
Not really, actually. Love needs no taking about. Just as life and moral and ethics and ... money .. need no talking about. Everyone can fall in love. And everyone can loose their beloved. It's called Time, also knowns as: Life.

Read, educate ... think. And you will KNOW.
Know naught and ask, consult the Uncle Google and do many things, apart from deep thought and self-searching, not exercising any empathy on the fellow beings .. (see, it's not just us, humans I'm talking about.)
...
(we go back to the future, ie, to the present (what a lovely word at this time of year;) and continue thus: )
A funny thought just struck me yesterday: just of the Animal kingdom or tszar-dom, or phila or whatever, in the Phillum Crustacea (crabs etc.) there are know approx. 67.000 known species.
NOW. ... For the fungi ... numbers get even better (and wetter?): I think we heard last year they're estimating the numbers to be 4 million (of the wee fungi, yes, Mycotina).
NOW ... of the 250.000 plant species (and more are being discovered, the only setback being the demolition and degradation of the natural world, a small thing, don't you fret a bit) ... of the uknown number of Microbiota, microorganisms (new are being discovered every day, ... and nobody knows, where the number will stop, since we're melting (AAAAA, I'M MEEEELTIIING, MELTING!!!) the unimportant icebergs and the whole continents, apparently (here: for one of the numerous articles on the subject)

new microbes are being cast, demons from the ancient past (when WE were but strains of forming DNA in one of the ancestors, lurking and hiding out in the undergrowth), unto the light of the New Days.
And NOW, consider this:
Homo sapiens is but ONE (1, let me spell it out for us: o n e ) of the species, of the myriads of different life forms, living on this used-to-be-blue-and-green-planet we could once call home.
But ... it's not all so dark, I know, I know.

Thus - love. Another concoction of proteins, enzymes and superfluous fluids, running through our bodies, unknowningly turning us into subjects of our hearts' desires.
Making us addicted to the mere sight of those we cherish and love the most. Making us suffer almost undurable pains, because we are not with whom we'd want to be (if that is the case). Painstakingly tearing away the fibers of our hearts until they are instantly healed back when we are together. But cracks remain .. And through them, the very essence of our beings seeps, the pigments of imagination, writhing on the cold, cold eeyrie air of the reality.
...
For hearts fear the world .. and it's coldness. Not often are they willing to expose themselves to the whims of chance, that brutal Mistress of the Words and Words ...
I'm off with the fairies, I guess, so I'll just stop.

Anyways, folks, wish you the very best of what's left of the 2008
and
"Farewell, wherever you are, till your eyries receive you at the journey's end."

Free the Sleeping Giant (Dragon) ... ie, China

Cheers!
Sleeping Dragon, Crouching Tiger and all of the things from Jet Li, as well as stretched time-space continuum to include Marco Polo, who brought but a few things with 'im back to ole Europe... AND met with Kublai Khan, grandson of the great (?) Genghis Khan - back when greatness was determined by how much wealth and people you have, serving under and around yeh. Also, building ever-lasting monuments is but one of those eency weency little thingies (like they did in Egypt or India - Tadž/ Taj Mahal, say).
(Yes, paper, gun-powder, spaghetti/noodles, compass, sextant, things like that, you know, not much really;) Oh, travels on the silky road ... go ever oooonnn, down from the Venice where it began;)


Now this will probably be enough for my blog to be removed from the internet, since China is a People's Country ... how very appropriate, so nearly after the day of human rights, for me to spell this out: China is free.

Free of prejudice, tyranny, neglecting smaller towns and villages, entire ethnic groups. I think PR of China is a good example of how a country can stick together and not let outsiders brake-in, demolish what we have fought so hard to retain: Chinese vulture, sorry, culture, it's Great and Noble history and all else.
Here's a short quote from Wikipedia:

The last Chinese Civil War has resulted in two political entities using the name China:
* the People's Republic of China (PRC), commonly known as China, has control over mainland China, and the largely self-governing territories of Hong Kong (since 1997) and Macau (since 1999).
* the Republic of China (ROC), commonly known as Taiwan, has control over the islands of Taiwan, Pescadores, Kinmen, and Matsu.


Who am I to judge - I know not of these heavy historical facts and/or words, said and done in the times past, ... - to say that Tibet should be a free country would be blasphemy, probably. I can only cite what people have written before me:
Wiki:
The government opposes publicized foreign travels by former and present ROC officials promoting Taiwan's independence, such as Lee Teng-hui and Chen Shui-bian, and other politically controversial figures, such as Tenzin Gyatso, the Dalai Lama of Tibetan Buddhism, in an official context.

Also, human rights, as I have already pointed out, have a place of special interest in this world: old Shakespeare would probably say: "Much ado about nothing!" Thus, I giveth to thee, a picture, (said to be worthy of thousand souls! Sorry, words ...):
Surely, a great and under god, a humble nation, stands for its people, you will ask? Yes! Even more so: the Enemy lies within ourselves! Thus to defend our great nations' best interests, we sometimes have to fight our own internal enemies (which are supposedly everywhere, so we must be prepared!!), even at the cost of human life & rights.
Separatists (such as Tibet ... I gues?) have to be at least isolated, for they hurt our economy and good-will of the working nation.

And so forth and so on. I don't know. I've said enough. I really like a book called "On the roof of the world, by Tomo Križnar (web page of the author here). Also, a link to one of the previous articles I posted: here: Free smiles capaign. (And here about the Pulitzer price-winning photograph (after which the photographer allegedly made a suicide: Naomi Kline and NoLOGO ... consumers.


I'll just Finnish offff with two things, without comments:
It's sad we go from this, the wonders of the (ancient!!) world to the "modern 'wonders' of the world". (Tianamen Square, Sudan, Tibet, Darfur, Apartheid, South America, ..., and to finish of with the climate "crisis", mmm, coup de la theatre!)

What's with people and horror movies?


What's with people and scarrrry movies? I'm watching one right now ...
Actually, I'M DONE WATCHING NOW.
And boy, Peter The Hook is not the guy you want to mess with;)

But seriously, serieuse! Why is it that some people (majority? Naaah, I don't think so. Majority just tags along.) really (?) like seeing bloody limbs, teeth and hair trashing about all over the screen?
Personally, I've sorted the (scary) movies into a few categories:
- BIOLOGY
- WACKOS
- ENGINES&GADGETS
- all ELSE (Japanese stuff?;)
Now, your typical Biology Horror movie is Alien. So we have a monster and a lot of pretty damn scared humans, usually at disadvantage because the Monster either has:
shiny teeth and/or claws / inbedded daggers (of the Wolverine type) / spits poisonous saliva or is otherwise very gruesome indeed.
NOW- other movies of the category (it's become pretty stretchable over the years) are: The Dark Side of the Moon (never saw it, just guessing - saw a couple of clips whilst I was but a boy and it gave me willies, ...), Species (not actually a horror movie) ... Body Snatchers, Puppet Masters and stuff, I'd probably squeeze in as well, in spite of their SCI-FI affiliations. You have your Tremors (not really a horror either) and stuff ... Aha! Dracullllja and assortment of fine Zombie movies, including the aw-it-was-but-a-fine-day-in-school-until-some-government-experiment-went-DEAD-wrong-and-the-light-reflected-from-the-weather-balloon and ... You get the picture. Example would be Fly and Fly 2, but I never saw them either, so I'm just guessing. (Despite obvious similarities to The Green Goblin, the Fly IS and Spider-man ISN'T a scary movie ... Not unless you look at his tights too much, anyway;)

NOW "WACKOS" would include everything from Friday the 13th (although it could be claimed by "Biology", since there's a lot of insinuated sex&nakedness there;) to Freddy Crugger and all of the Jack-the-Ripper type of movies. Also (never saw it) the Shining, I guess? (Is this the one with "HERE COMES JOHNNY!!") would go herewith.

Engines&Gadgets is something for Adam Savage, I guess, but also - every terminator-type-of-or-a-Marvin-from-the-Hitch-Hiker's-Galaxy-gone-CUCKOO!/LOCO! is this type of movie. I can't seem to recall that much of these, but all the fancy stuff or people like ... Well, the SAW and Texas Chainsaw Massacre and stuff sort of drift between the "Wackos" and "Gadgets", since it has a little bit of both.
BUT: The Car (or what's it called) and Panic Room, ... that sort of goes here.

There's another category which I sort of forgot: Suspense&Ghosts, now THAT really deserves a category of its own. The Fog ... Sixth Sense (not really, but this type of movies) ... a couple of X-Files episodes go here as well. Anything with weird aliens and Alien stuff sort of shifts, in my opinion, somewhere between here and 'Biology', The Thing (never saw it, just sort of know the plot), things like that. Oooh, The Children or what's it called, they go here as well ... Iiish! Aha, and Pet Cemetary (trust me, If you see it alone, at the age of 13 (yes, 13!) you think it's pretty scary!)

Hem ... I know a lot of these things, for a guy that "doesn't watch horror", eh? Or not, who am I to judge? (Judge Dread ... hm;)

And no, havent' forgotten Critters: Biology, Gremlins .. well, ok, if you insist - Biology. (Does it show my field of study has sth to do with "Life sciences"?? ;)
Cheerio:)

One of the scarriest things I've ever saw was this one over there and here:
It's from the Season 1 of the X-files (back then they made series that were made to LAST!!;): Darkness Falls (had to goodle, doodle, google it myself). Click here to see/read what I'm talking about.
Now, seriously - you definately think at least thrice before venturing out in the forrest (being alone or not is irrelevant when facing weird critter and/or spidery stuff from "abroad") ... for another 10 years (or at least two, trust me on that one, do.) [Here is an article about best ten (10) episodes ever ... surely, there has to be something about our little green flesh-eating mites ...;)]
Again: Cheer up Dorothy, it gets a lot worse! ;)
If you never knew who Eugene Tooms was, all the better for you, I can say. (And much better still, if you haven't seen the Episode. (I'd be right here, to add in "yet", wouldn't I?;)) You sick horror-loving bastards! ;)
Fight. Hehe;)

Regina Spektor, generacija 2000/2004 in "Us"

Včeraj je bila žurka generacije 2000/2004, prav fletno.
Vsi smo se strinjali, da je prav nespodobno, da smo že 5 let čez maturo in da nekako ni pošteno, ker smo ... res da, povečini že na koncu faksa, velika manjšina že v službah, ... še vedno - ali pa se vsaj počutimo - stare 17, 18, 19 let.

Zakaj Regina Spektor? Ker je par njenih komadov totalno norih in ker smo se včeraj videli s sošolkami (in 2mi sošolci .. don't ask), med njimi tudi Anjo (njen blog, poln skromnosti), ki me je pred dobrim polletjem navdušila Zanjo. (Regino, kakopak.)
(Pa NE ME LOVIT za njene besede, ker res, mi je ravno do ... Kosova;) Em ja, enkrat me vprašaj, dragi bralec/bralka, akoravno me že poznaš, od kje pride ta izraz, ta fraza "ravno do Kosova";)) Je kar fletna, se strinjam, ja. (wink wink, nudge nudge)

I give yooh: Regina Sssspekkkttttorrrrr wuuuuuaaaah;)

This land (Disney's: THE LION KING)

Say what you will, BUT (cute one, too:) Lion King is probably the BEST motion picture cartoon ever made by Walt Disney (studios), in their golden era, which can, thus, easily surpass the cartoons of today, made by Dreamworks, ...
Ok, ok .. I admit - let's put the words "in its zanre", because there's the Ice Age, Shrek, Madagascar, Happy Feet and things like that.
So - Lion King is THE best in the 'olden ways' of how they made them.

It has been a phenomenon, though - never has a cartoon amassed so much audience through the years, I'd say. But it was exceptionally successful, as well: last time I saw the data, (it was well over 4 years ago), it was OVER 400 bilion us dollars worldwide, which is and was unimaginable for the time. (That is, for a cartoon to go as far.)

So, I give it to thee: the last scene in the picture, with music from Hans Zimmer (click here for official discography), his web page here. HE, for yee of little faith, has made MUSIC. And also quite good one, I can add. Almost in the league of Great John Williams, whom my friend and I discovered a couple of years ago (say roughly ten).

Zimmer has written, or has been a music producer for, among others, films like: Pirates of the Carribbean, Batman: The Dark Night, As good as it gets (Jack Nicholson!!), Gladiator (Russel Crowe), Perfect Storm, Thin Red Line, Broken Arrow (Kurt Russel?), The Rock (Sean Conrey, etc.), Twister, Cool Runnings, Thelma&Louise, Bird on a wire (with Mel Gibson), Rain Man (Tom Cruise and Dustin Hoffman).
Getting the idea, right?
Well, not quite, see. Latter of his creations include: The Kung-fu Panda, Angels and Demons (not yet out), Madagascar2, Iron Man, Simpsons the Movie, The DaVinci Code, Madagascar, Batman Begins, Shark Tale, King Arthur, ...
I could stop, couldn't I? Well, I will, since I think you get the picture (ironically) of what he's done for the movie world. If we seem to not quite see eye-to-eye, I suggest you take ... Gladiator .. and see it without music. Without THE MUSIC, wherever it is in the movie! It's like ... pathetic. Every movie is. That's why, ..., every movie HAS. Music. Ah, so poetical right now;)
So yeah - here it is, have fun, kids;)

Oh, yeah, and this one is actually even almost better: Here, then. (Actually even almost better? What kind of a phrase is THAT?!;)

El tango de Roxanne

El tango de Roxanne ... listen to Ewan McGregor and you'll understand.


It's true, thought, that I only hope this has music with it, ..., for I am at the library and noooo way, there'd be a *play this file's music* type of a command allowed. Oh, no - too many nerds have taken the control over their computers, thus, spite or better - just short of it happening again, they've taken the music out of the machines.
New era ensued. The Time of MusicLess PCs. But there was a computer made, inside the Library, a computer, with a power to play a tune as he saw fit. His name was TrueNote.
...
Perhaps a great story, it will remain shrouded in the corners of my frail mind, coiled in a corner near the centre of my world, where it is still warm. (AND NO, I HAVEN'T been watching ANY of the Matrixes lately. Not since last year, anyway.)

Maid of honour, made of honour

Life's funny, ain't it?
You think you have it all figuered. Alright, not ALL of it, but hey! - nobody's perfect. (I'm Nobody.)
You think you know your heart and it/he/she proves you wrong, ... every once in a while. I guess, then, that Paolo Coelho was right. Definitely. He said that true power comes from knowing your heart. Truely knowing. That means all the fears and desires, ..., it's to get to know YOU and who you really are, what you want in life.
It gives you strength and renders your foes, so to say, weaponsless. It also leaves them defenseless, in a way, since they know naught something you DO: one's own heart. (Reminds you of Brisingr, doesn't it?)

I'm sort of ship-wrecked right now. Why? Well, I can't really tell what my heart is trying to tell me. I know, actually, but for the time being, I'll refuse to believe it. He's tellin' me to pull back, to the starboard side and wheel the whole ship about. Somehow.
But I for one know that this would be a ... wrong thing to do. Why? Because if you stand still in this world, you're dead. If you're not dead physically, you ARE. Mentally, or otherwise. "You gotta keep on moving!" So that's exactly what I'll do.
I'll keep on moving, onto Al Araf, onto the Bridges of my heart, the ones I don't see an end to. I'll just .. sort of drift along, like in a jam session (yes, with a lot of jam and strawberries, yes, that's the one;). I'll improvise a bit, with an actual plan in progress, but I'l sincerely try to neglect it. Really. It will only work if I don't plan it anymore.

If anyone understood what I'm on about, well - good for you. Hope to meat ;) you someday. (Don't worry - I'm on the verge of becoming a vegetarian.)

Cmok v ... sobi in René Magritte

Danes pred nekaj leti in hurami (not to be confused with húrije;) ali nekaj takega, se je rodil in sploh začel svojo "mundane" pot stric v naslovu. Pa da ne bom samo jaz, naj nekaj pove še cmok oz. jabolko v grlu, pardon, sobi. (hint: it's a Link1.)




René François Ghislain Magritte (21 November 1898 - 15 August 1967) was a Belgian surrealist artist. He became well-known for a number of witty and thought-provoking images.
Kako, da "to ni pipa"? Ker je SLIKA, PODOBA pipe. Tako vsaj piše na strani od Wikipedije, kjer nadaljuje z ..., no, bom dal kar cel odlomčič. Ladies&gentleman, wiki:
A consummate technician, his work frequently displays a juxtaposition of ordinary objects in an unusual context, giving new meanings to familiar things. The representational use of objects as other than what they seem is typified in his painting, The Treachery of Images (La trahison des images), which shows a pipe that looks as though it is a model for a tobacco store advertisement. Magritte painted below the pipe "This is not a pipe" (Ceci n'est pas une pipe), which seems a contradiction, but is actually true: the painting is not a pipe, it is an image of a pipe. (In his book This Is Not a Pipe French philosopher and critic Michel Foucault discusses the painting and its paradox.
In zakaj so moji posti tako "zmedeni"? Niso. Samo veliko, veliko informacij je notri. In ja, ker mi "šopajo", jih imam malček problem urediti v kohezivno celoto. Stric Eco je mislim, da napisal Foucaultovo nihalo. (Roman Umberta Eca: tukaj wiki do Foucaultovega nihala, ki seveda ni isti M. F. ampak J. B. L. F. ;) ... zanimivo branje.)

1- not to be meddled and confounded;) with the one from the Matrix, mind you:)

SloTraveller.com

Hi! I'll just write this in good ole' English, shall I, should be easier and much faster since I wish not to translate the whole block of text.

NOW ... A page has been made, a PORTAL, so to say, with any insinuations to MTG, Magic: The Gathering inconspicuously improbable.

So what's it all about? Well, if naught else, we can see some sort of lizzard winking at us, timidly and yet moronicly, "out of the blue" (in this case, THE case:).
But ok, looks alright, albeit not quite in full swing, as it seems at the moment.

Definately promising, but - to say more would not be prudent, rather rash and harsh. SO: "We should be patient, my young padawan."
(As is with stuuf of more mundane an appearance: say some words, shall we? Somalia, Slovenia, Singapur, TOkio & Dow Jones, militias in Kongo and Brasil, ..., polar bears and blood-stained politicians, student-politicians and school-going youngsters. (I can't believe I've actually said that, 'youngsters'... Gosh, "I feel old, Gandalf...").

Cheers and ... DO DRINK, for perhaps, "so many will we shoot of the arrows that we will block out the sun!"
"Alright. Then we will fight in the shade!
" T h i s i s G A I A ! "

Temno nebo

Zdravo, lep pozdrav in dobro jutro vsem!

Gre, očitno, za malce daljši mail, ergo ga berite kot knjigico: malce zvečer, malce zjutraj, na WC-ju, če tehnika omogoča ... skratka, če želite, ga preberite, če ne, prav, lahko ga pa po odstavkih. Lp, A 
A prior Scriptum, A.S.: em .. pa malce bo verjetno treba napet možgane, ker mi je par asociacij šinilo v glavo vmes. Not to worry. Mislim, da vsi zmorete, zato vam pa tudi pošiljam.


Na to lepo ponedeljkovo jutro, po malce prebrani noči (ne mene vprašat, kaj to pomeni:),
me je prešinilo, da je to, kar mi je Tomo Križnar napisal kot posvetilo v knjigo, ..., še ena izmed rešitev in na žalost še eno izmed bojnih polj, na katerih bomo biologi/zeleni/naravo-/okolje-/samo-varstveniki z večjim in bolj nujnejšim smislom za samo-ohranitev morali stati na svojih tleh in kvečjemu napredovati ter se ne umakniti.

Govorim o priponki. (Na levi strani je Rio, zgoraj Evropa, now go figure.)

Gre za nekaj, kar so pred leti začeli tudi eni izmed pametnih slovencev, med drugim nam je na enih predavanjih o tem nekaj malega povedal tudi Tomi Trilar (no, malega zato, ker je v zadnji treh letih umrlo toliko malih bitjec, da je le še ena mala kapljica v morje tega, kar ne vemo, če uporabim besede velikega Isaaca N.)

Gre za pobudo o Temnem Nočnem Nebu (ni nujno vse z velikimi, pač malo okrancljam), ki se je začela ... nekaj časa nazaj.
Lani je bil 7. simpozij, tokrat na slovenskih tleh, bivša punca se ga je, se mi zdi, udeležila (če ne ima pa zavisti vreden plakat doma).
  Tukaj lahko dobite nekaj navodil projektantom, ..., ki bi jih zamikalo za mastno plačilo, ker je to sedaj že (za neuke in tiste, ki imajo radi boldan tekst) zakonsko prepovedano, postaviti okroglaste svetilke, ki niso niti prefarbane do polovice ... no, tukaj je html: navodila projektantom.
Za vse, ki pravijo, da se ne da (=nočejo bit prvi), ponujajo na Dark sky Slovenia nekaj primerov dobre prakse. A naj opozorim na vsaj meni dozdevno nepravilnost pri slikah 7. in predvsem 18. na desni strani pri taprvem linku. (še enkrat je ta link tukajle.) Namreč ... starejši občani baje ne vozijo radi več avtomobilov med drugim tudi zato, ker se jim bleščijo lučke oz. osvetljava tipa slika DesnoLink1Št.18. (Za ta lene: tuki.) Ne sme se videti, če stojite na cesti, več kot tri izvore lulči daleč (nekaj takega).

Za tiste, ki berete in razmišljate zraven: Sporna je torej osvetlitev z lučmi, ki oddajajo: b) glej spodaj in a) svetlobo nad vodoravnico (ker dobiš potem sliko v priponki ali nekaj podobnega tukajle, na Stričku Google-u (though not to be confused with Uncle Sam, ..., for some reasons ... don't know why, actually, but hey! Nobody's perfect. (I'm nobody.)))
b)  Poleg tega pa je sporno sicer korektno osvetljevanje, a napačnih površin. Nič ti ne pomaga, če osvetliš s pravimi lučkami eno lepo, veliko, belo (ali f. svetlejše barve) fasado npr. ... kakšna cerkev ... ali L'Eclerc na jugu Lj ... (baje) (OMG, he used the big corporation's name!!!) Zakaj? Pejte kej ponoči naokoli ... in štejte uboge vešče.
  (Ja, fulll jih je. Ampak bilo jih je več. In jih bo še manj. In kaj bodo jedli različni insectivori??? Mphm? Recimo, tudi ptiči, ježki, netopirji? Aja, sej ni take štale. Hm, ampak .. kdo pa je njih? Recimo medved tudi mrhovino. Medveda lovijo lovci, ergo ljudje .. WHOOOPS! Pa dobro. Ježa .. Lisica .. volk ali jelen .. aja, ne - jelen ne je mesa (much?) Ok .. pa vešča, k pade dol ... da energijo ogljikovih, dušikovih atomov in vodikovih vezi ter navsezadnje phosphatnih skupin .. komu? Ge. Travici (sori, Traven;)), Invertebrata-om, ... Oh, lej - spet pride vmes ptič, ker je kaj podobnega (pa dobr, ajdo, , etc.) aja, pa leg ga zlomka, žir pa želod pa med (čebele, ki sicer umirajo, tudi pri nas .. hm, kaj je že rekel A. Einstein?? Ali je to sploh reku?) spet je medved, ... ja, hudimana, sploh ne pridemo in ne pridemo do nas, egotripov, erm, pardon, antropocentristov. Aja, sori - ljudem.)

Če gre kdo Bonda gledat ... Dar fur in ne nafta. Pa še to, o bondu: ... D. Craig bi lahko ves svoj zaslužek od keša dal v dobrodelne namene (ampak morda, pravim, morda! ne Unicefu, ki pošilja včasih tudi svinjino in ženske dolge hlače na bližnji vzhod...) - recimo kaki organizaciji tipa Green planet. Aja, šit. Erm .. a ta dobrim zelenim al ta .. manj dobrim zelenim? Lahko da Pahorju, če je res gej, pol ima nekaj dobrega srca v sebi in je odprt za predloge, hm? Much like J. Haider, only he was .. sort of .. physically and mentally open. Especially when his skul cracked against the metal frame of the car he WAS DRIVING TOTALLY DRUNK!! He could've like, killed someone. Thank god? it was only him. Or H.I.M. - Baby join me in death! Aha ha, lol, killing myself - whoops, another one;) Like B. Spears and Talibans after the 9/11's frist strike 2/5, remember? ;)) ah, too much fer yeh too cope with, I reckon.

Dobr, za foto finišh, vreden Joli in Mutule (pa nič proti temnim, upam samo, da doživi 20. januar, (pa ne Mutula)):
  - nočno nebo --- ja, morda
  - temno nočno nebo - sicher
  - fašizem nein
  - n?Obama?
  - Bondovo dekle je res krull
(is that an Urgal?:)
  - tudi Janez Drnovšek je kriv ... so-kriv svetlobnega onasnaževanja


Za vse, ki ste zdržali do tukaj, na račun morda nekaj skurjenih sinaps ... iskrena hvala.
Za vse, ki iščete samo modre (torej pametne, se razume) povezave v tem tekstu - so in jih ni, odvisno od gledišča.
Za vse, ki ljubite pametne (ali žal samo preroške) citate v tujih jezikih:
Za vse, ki preveč berete: Ellen sola lúmen omentielvo! (glej spodaj)
Za vse, ki ste se ravnokar zaljubile vame, for my unsurpassing wits and sharm: tudi rad kuham in pomivam;)
Za vse, ki vam grem že močno na žice, nisem edini, it's been done before: namely John Cleese - How to irritate people.

In za konec, ker dvomim, da bo kmalu od mene spet kak tak mail za ... toliko ljudi prišel:

Ko mi gre
zares za nohte, se spomnim dobrih ljudi, ki so mi kaj pomagali v življenju (v dejanju ali besedi) in svetujem vam, da sami, če tega še ne počenjate, začnete to početi. (Sm se zaciklal ... Lahko delate pa samo počepe. Še to je bolje, kot da )
Če ni noči, se zvezde ne vidijo.

Ko smo že pri zvezdah: Elen sola lumenn omentielvo (Stari prevod, str. 93, Ljubljana: Gnosis-Quatro, 1995) - ura našega srečanja je obsijana z zvezdami. (In ne, nisem na pamet vedel, ampak .. sem šel pogledat. Kar naj bi bila fora knjig, ane, Roman?)

Torej, LOtR ni napačen - očitno pride kak citat prav tudi za take hece, kot je ta mail, namely the following:
The Road goes ever on and on
Out from the door where it began.

Now far ahead the Road has gone,
Let others follow it who can!
Let them a journey new begin,
But I at last with weary feet
Will turn towards the lighted inn,
My evening-rest and sleep to meet.

In ja, Matej Mihelič, če si še tukaj in bereš, bi naročil eno S ali M majico. Hvala.


In .. še nekaj. Dobri človek!? Prosim, če nimaš ravno tako dobrih argumentov, zakaj pa ljudje ne bi vsake toliko smeli poslati enega maila naokoli ... ki dejansko malce bolj v srčiko stvari zadene, mi ne govorit, nej ga ne pošiljam.
In SARA .. ? (Ne ti!) Ti, ja, S. J. J. C. (Ne, ne S. M.) ... in kdorkoli, ki se mu zdi zelo fascinantno, napasti človeka za dobro jutro ali dober dan s stavkom, kot je: "Kaj si ti spet ene čudne maile pošiljal naokoli?!"  ...
   ...
  -.- (diham, da se umirim)
... you should too -...
... torej: raje kot to, raje dobro jutro reci, pol pa še kej, pa še jaz kaj tebe vprašam, potem pa npr. že lahko. Taka direktna vprašanja si dovolim, da mi postavljajo samo določeni ljudje in ... mislim oz. vem, da oni ne bi na tak način povedali ... z drugačno barvo glasu, pa še kak argument drugi kakor: "To se ne spodobi, to se ne sme! To ne morš tko zdej, ejga, modeu!"
  Hm? Ne? pomojem se tudi zastrupljati vode ne spodobi. Niti prodajati azbesta vrtcem. Tudi goljufati se ne spodobi, še manj pa se spodobi nastaviti ali odstaviti urednike Dela, Mladine, D. Kosa in podobne. Tudi 3 - 4x več milijonov (-jard??) evrov se ne spodobi dat, lahko v živo rečem g. Zidarju, če ga kdo pozna osebno. Dar fur se NE spodobi, pa ga še nisem gledal.
Španska inkvizicija se ne spodobi, tudi naseliti kaznjence na poseben otok se ne spodobi. Tudi Martina Luthra Kinga se ne spodobi ubiti, ali JFK-ja ali ... koga drugega. Tudi G. H. W. Bush ni lepo biti. (Oz. je, depending on the view).
Predvsem se pa ne spodobi imeti Pop-corna in/ali kokic ter sladkorne pene NA ŽALAH OB DNEVU MRTVIH!!! Samo kot primer povem, nič drugega. Največ, kar se spodobi, je to, da rečeš, kar misliš .. in če te kdo želi poslušati, prav ... sej Jelinčiča tudi ne poslušajo vsi, pa je baletnik baje, z norejšo ženo in zapuščeno foster-hčerko ter sinom, ki je zbežal od doma, na srednji vzhod in prevedel KORAN. Hm. Edini popcorn, ki se ga splača imet na žalah ob dnevu mrtvih, pardon, se NE spodobi, da tako rečem, moram seveda reči: "Ob dnevu spomina na mrtve" (in preminule in obglavljene in umrle v prometnih nesrečah (Bee-bee-pop!!!) in shirane od lakote v Abu Graibu ali pa morda kar kakšne slovenske pesnike in pisce, ki so jim sežgali hišo med oz. pred ali celo po vojni (imam prav določeno osebo v mislih.)
  Tudi vsi nemci niso slabi (Hitler je začel s 7-imi, lahko pa počakata na TOMA CRUISE-A, ko pride film v kino), tudi večina ANGLEŽEV IN FRANCOZEV v zgodovini SE V RESNICI ni obnašala CIVILIZIRANO, ko so ravno v imenu "naše civilizacije" morili in poibijali, ah, pardon neukemu - POKRISTANJEVALI se reće in se spodobi.

kot sta dejala dva kolega:
1.) Spodobi se in pravično je. (L. R.)
2.) Mislit boli. (B. Z: after P. K.)

Bom končal v svojem stilu: "Baaah!"

The Google has you, Neo. // - Knock , knock.

"Hey, World!"
I'm participating in the Neanderthal-November, of the notorious Dan Brown, a you tube contest, so ... beware! "You're off the edge of the map, mate. And here, THERE BE MONSTERS! //cpt. Barbossa to cpt. Jack Sparrow//

Isn't it kind of pathetic, though? The fact, that the Waschawski bros. were kind of right and could well be written down in history together with A. Huxley, G. Orwell and Nietzsche?
After so many hrs on the net, no wonder ...I'm talking about Facebook. About uncle google, replacing the complacent Uncle Sam. About Blogger, Picassa and whatnot. I'm talking about the world as we know it, people! And I'm not sure everybody want to "see what I am going to show you".

Presindetal campaigns are now led also on you-tube. Gordon Brown has opened a VR (video-response) page on You-tube, for the sake of his own people and the sake of at least appearing modern. (Regarding the regular outfit, a good go, Mr. Brown, quite bold of you, but ... not to worry, eh?:) (No offence meant.)

Let love shine ...

Something I found whilst searching the net and answering 'older' emails:
...
LET LOVE SHINE

I'm getting all nervous
and I guess there really is something to do with her and me,
for the girl I think I'll marry
is coming to town, ...,
I've got my guts spilled and my heart sliced
all over my room,
there's no more room ..
to make for anyone but her.

She.
is. And i am.

But will we ever be - together? Sure we will!
(But, will it be soon, though?) Stand still, my heart, fear not!
It shall be --- or not, naught fear, thy shall know love
for thou art a being of light as well as She.
Stand still, my heart, fare not,
don't decline thy wonder and
let our expectations rise to meet the Sun that is Her face.

Fear not, hate not the hours that separate you from her,
my love.
Strive not to end your bond to
pain and hurt
of the world ...
Embrace it, take it also upon you,

as have others,
granted, of considerable size,

but others still.
Let your love shine forth
let your voice be heard
let love rule
and for us all,
for the sake of our own peace of mind,
smile. With all your heart, Heart,
and She will come.
Yes, if ever she wants to,
she will.

She has to, else I perish and wane.
For my manly mane
is not as Max Payne,
shall not fade away and a stone
nor bird cannot undo that sole shot,
that sole try thou shall make, don't cry
if you fail, it is to no avail,
drop that veil
and bail
out your love from dungeons unheard
let your love soar
let the wind under your wings bear you,
where the sun sails and the moon walks,
as John Roald would say.

Shine the light, shine on me,
take a chance on me
shall you say to her
and then, in swiftness, you should leave her.
But only for her to return,
whenever she deems right and true.
Fear not, don't feel blue.

Have a little faith in me
my little one, for through this Sapphire sky
things great and small will give out their cry
for Her, and You, together,
as once you were.
Stand still, or hummm it, (I) care naught.

But buzz, wriggle with excitement,
let love shine through you
and fill the domiciles of peoples minds.
For they are also Beings of Light.

Bah! It is well late
and restful slumber
awaits me,
as does you, My Love.
Good night,
sleep tight.
Hope that She's not the one to bite.
(At least not much.)
ta-taaah.

Africa going it's own way and counteracting against global economic recession

(Well, that's how I'd put it, anyway;)

IPS EXCLUSIVE: Interview with Archbishop Desmond Tutu
==============================

In an exclusive interview to IPS Correspondent, Bankole Thompson, South Africa’s Archbishop, Desmond Tutu, talks about the current global financial crisis and how he thinks something is wrong with the "free market" system. He called for a review of the fundamentals of capitalism. He said African governments should form cartels to protect their institutions if Western nations are protecting their own financial companies. He lamented that Africa's political and religious leadership failed Zimbabweans. And he hailed the prospect of a Barack Obama presidency in the U.S.

He he he;)
Ivan Leban je zakon. In seveda njegov FiFi;) Evo, to je nekaj takega, kar delajo (-mo) redki posamezniki, ker se nam zdi, da je svet čist preveč resen in grd, da ga ne bi malo polepšali s smehom.

In zdaj Misel:
Na žalost pa veliko ljudi meni, da je treba misli o tem, kako je svet krut in grd, nameniti več časa. Da se je treba sekirati .. No, pardon, če navežem na Moniko Kalin Golob in Tino Verovnik - se je potrebno sekirati. Kajti, da, tudi zaradi jezikoslovja se sekiram [zaradi puristov, zaradi "simplizmov", zaradi sebe, zaradi medijev, ...]. In za tiste, ki me (ne) poznate, še to: sekiram se. Ful. Oz. sem se. Ful. In zdaj se malo manj oz. za druge stvari, ker sem ene stvari do neke mere pač že premislil in sem že videl toliko sveta in imam za seboj dva letnika na vsakem faksu po dva, ravno toliko, da vem, kaj se da, kaj ne, kaj se sme in kaj naj se ne bi smelo. SMEH JE PREPOVEDAN!!! Seveda, da je. Vprašajte Johna Cleesa.
Ker bi vam itak povedal približno isto kot jaz: PREPOVEDANO SE JE SMEJATI NA POKOPALIŠČU. Sploh. Četudi ste srečali staro znanko, prijateljico celo, s katero se niste videli že ... 2 leti, 2,5 let pa že niste šli na en dober pogovor ob čaju ali kavi ali soku z njo. (In seveda vam ona pove nekaj totalno smešnega.) ??? Who am I to judge?
Despues, nosotros podemos decir que ... les peuples et des gens du monde on va parler tout, mais jamais de les choses que sont tr`es important pour notre vie et que sont pas que vrai (est-ce que je peux dire ça, je vous vais demander?). Bah, c'est pas importante! Pas maintenant, que nous sommes en le [prag] de le beaux monde nouveaux. Et je croix, j'ai peur, je ne vuex pas avoir plus de peur que ce va ^etre le monde de Novas Ordem Seculorum. I refuse to believe it. And I'm doing my best to have my immediate surroundings made better, I strive towards a better world, in a Paulo Coelho sort-of-way.
But before I got there/here, there was also Vlado Miheljak, no, pa kaka svetlana Makarović ali pa oba skupaj očitno (nisem še prebral). In bila je Leni Reifenstall ter Tomo Križnar in od obeh, Nube. In bil je popart zaradi Lene, bili so oglaševalci, nato pa spet Srce (pa ne od De Amicis-a) - moje namreč.
In sem šel za Njim. Na biologijo. In zdaj sem Doma.
No, manjka mi še jadrnica in pa ... ena dečva. Le-ta je že ogledana, jadrnica .. pa lahko počaka še malo.
Men are wretched things, governed by their ever-restless hearts. Sounds familliar? Well, sure.

"Žale 2008" - 15 let za ljubljanske občane in občanke

DRUŠTVO TABORNIKOV

ROD MOČVIRSKI TULIPANI

Tržaška 74

1000 Ljubljana


Ljubljana, 23. 10. 2008

AKCIJA »ŽALE 2008 – 15 let akcije za ljubljanske občane«

Taborniki Rodu Močvirski tulipani iz Ljubljane vas vljudno vabimo na jubilejno, 15. zaporedno akcijo »ŽALE 2008«, ki bo potekala v soboto, 25. oktobra, od 8.30 do 14.30 ure na ljubljanskem pokopališču Žale.

Namen akcije »Žale« je pomagati predvsem starejšim občanom, pa tudi vsem, ki si naše pomoči želijo, pri prevozu peska do grobov njihovih svojcev ali prijateljev. Taborniki Močvirskih tulipanov in letos tudi taborniki Rodu Podkovani krap vas z veseljem pričakujemo pri kamnoseštvu v bližini cerkve Sv. Križa.

Spoznali nas boste po taborniških krojih in ruticah, poleg plakata, ki bo malce bolj vpadljivo oznanjal brezplačni prevoz peska in seveda prijaznega nasmeška, pa vas bo čakala tudi skodelica čaja s kakšnim piškotom ali dvema.

Pri izvedbi akcije nam bo pomagalo podjetje SCT d.d., ki nam bo, kot že tolikokrat, brezplačno posodilo kar 15 samokolnic za prevoz peska.

Teden pred Dnevom spomina na mrtve, še enkrat vljudno vabljeni na ljubljanske Žale, kjer vam bomo taborniki Rodu Podkovani krap in taborniki Rodu Močvirski tulipani prijazno in brezplačno priskočili na pomoč pri prevozu peska, samo to soboto, 25. oktobra 2008, od pol devete do pol tretje ure.


Lep taborniški pozdrav!

Successes in Sumatra Bring Hope for Wildlife
WWF is celebrating a historic island-wide agreement to protect Sumatra's biodiversity. Saving Sumatra is critical, as it's the only place in the world where tigers, elephants, rhinos and orangutans co-exist. This landmark decision will restore critical ecosystems, protect high conservation value forests and guide "green" development on the island. There is now renewed hope in Sumatra, the world's sixth largest island. Find out why.

    WWF Provides "Greenprint" for the Next Administration
    This week, WWF released its "Greenprint" agenda--a non-partisan policy roadmap for the next administration to address global threats to environmental, social and political stability in four key areas: climate change, conservation of natural resources, food security and freshwater availability. The WWF Greenprint was provided to Senators John McCain (R-Ariz.) and Barack Obama (D-Ill.) and their campaign staffs. It outlines specific policy initiatives that would reduce threats to global peace and security by cutting greenhouse gas emissions and establishing preparedness measures for dealing with the impacts of climate change, ensuring plentiful food and clean water for people around the world, and retooling the U.S. government’s Cold War-era foreign assistance program to ensure more sustainable use of the world’s natural resources.

    Ko si tako interactiven [s k-jem, vem], se ti zgodi, da na wireless valovih najdes se kaksno kul stvar, slona oz. mamuta iz pre-historične zgodovine sodobnega sveta.

    Re: Za živali... en podpis...veliko dobrega... ;)

    Zdravo!

    Mislim, da če rečem besedo ali dve na tematiko, ne bo škodilo.

    1) Sej so takile maili fajn, ampak ... (sploh se mi ne ljubi gledat, ali gre za hrte, navadne pse in rakune, delfine, tune, ... gorile, ...) ... pojdite/pridite raje v SHS, Morigenos, DOPPS, ..., pojdite na RTŠB, pojdite ven in pomagajte, ne pa da si pošiljamo maile levo desno

    2) ne pozabit na rastline: invazivke, npr. so velik problem. Povsod. Ameriške, kanadske, japonske in tibetanske pri nas, evropske, avstralske in podobno pa v Ameriki, npr.
    Erigeron anuus (annuum?)
    Impatiens glandulifera
    Impatiens parviflora
    Solidago canadensis
    Rudbeckia laciniata
    ... so samo 4-je rodovi izmed mnogih.

    Pridite na akcijo čiščenja invazivk, ... kdaj? Ne vem. Ne organiziram. Samo sodelujem. In berem vmes. Ful. Berite še vi, npr. BDS ali DSB, ... doppsovo stran, ...

    In za konec, kakor je rekel že veliki J. J. Rousseau (če ne pa Lord Baden-Powell ali Ernest Thompson-Setton): Z naravo k boljšemu človeku.

    Lep pozdrav,

    Pozdravljen,
    Ni ti treba gledati videa, ker se ti bodo oci zasolzile... le podpisi
    in zivali ti bodo iz srca hvalezne...
    Hvala vsem!

    Potrebno jih je ustaviti!

    Takoj!!!!!

    Prosim, ne ostani pri miru kot, da nisi nič videl(a).
    Mar lahko dovolimo, da nadaljujejo, brez da bi mi reagirali?
    Za poizkus preprečitve, da se zgodi še ena sama tovrstna podlost,
    bolje rečeno nenormalno krut zločin....
    zbiramo minimum 500 podpisov, vendar - več jih bo, boljše bo!!!!
    Posnetek je katastrofalno krut.
    Ne da se celega pogledat...

    S svojim podpisom na spodnji seznam boš pripomogel (a) k ustavitvi teh
    psihopatsko izprijenih človeških izmečkov!


    Hvala!

    Discworld ... series and Terry Pratchett part 1

    And here a link to a wikipedia article: Terry Pratchett.

    EKOSISTEMI – povezanost živih sistemov

    Pripenjam novičko:

    .

    Zavod RS za Šolstvo in Ministrstvo za šolstvo in šport v okviru projekta Raznoliki pristopi k posodabljanju naravoslovnih predmetov tudi letos organizirata mednarodni posvet Biološka znanost in družba, ki nadaljuje z lani začetim uvajanjem sodobnih znanj in sistemskega pristopa v obravnavo živih sistemov v šolsko prakso. Letos pri organizaciji posveta sodelujeta tudi Društvo biologov Slovenije in agencija ARAO.


    Mednarodni posvet EKOSISTEMI – povezanost živih sistemov
    bo potekal 2. in 3. oktobra 2008
    v konferenčni dvorani Poslovne hiše GIO,
    Dunajska 160, 1000 Ljubljana.

    Tema letošnjega posveta Biološka znanost in družba je EKOSISTEMI – povezanost živih sistemov. Program bo usmerjen v celostno predstavitev osnovnih bioloških konceptov v zvezi z živimi sistemi, njihovim razvojem, metabolizmom in interakcijami na različnih organizacijskih ravneh. Na okroglih mizah bo razprava o nujnosti uvajanja sodobnih znanj in sistemskega pristopa pri obravnavi živih sistemov in pomenu splošnega biološkega znanja za sodelovanje v procesih odločanja in reševanja problemov (zavedanju naraščajočega pomena široke splošne biološke izobrazbe za posameznika in družbeno odločanje).
    Na njem bodo sodelovali priznani tuji in domači predavatelji s področja biološke znanosti in družboslovnih znanosti.

    Za prevajanje bo poskrbljeno.

    Pedološke in vegetacijske razmere so v glavnem odvisne od klime, ki je pri nas humidna. Od 1500 mm padavin jih odteče okoli 1000, in tako iz porečja Soče nad Solkanom odteče na leto več vode (60 L na sekundo s km2 porečja) kot iz porečja Amazonke, reke vlažnega ekvatorialnega podnebja.

    Turles! (Tortoises)

    Tagging
    © WWF-EARPO/Kimunya Mugo
    Tagging Turtles in Kenya


    The Lamu Archipelago is one of the most important marine turtle nesting grounds in Kenya. Five of the seven sea turtle species that range in the Western Indian Ocean are found within the Lamu Seascape.

    Three among these species - Green turtle (Chelonia mydas), Hawksbill (Eretmochelys imbricata) and Olive ridley (Lepidochelys olivacea) nest and the other two - Loggerhead (Caretta caretta) and Leatherback (Dermochelys choriacea) have been reported to feed within the Lamu Archipelago.

    Over the years, WWF has mobilized the communities to protect the marine turtles both at sea and on the beaches. This August marked the official launch of the sea turtle satellite radio telemetry program in Kiunga Marine National Reserve. Learn more about this turtle tagging program and how the strategic use of scientific monitoring is helping to improve management and conservation of natural resources along the Kenyan Coast.

    WWF, in partnership with the Kenya Wildlife Service (KWS) has been running a successful conservation and development project in Kiunga Marine National Reserve (KMNR). Among the key components of the project is species protection, under which the green turtle is a flagship species. The main threats endangering turtles in the Lamu Archipelago are:

    1. By-catch by local fishermen as well as semi¬-industrial fisheries
    2. Poaching of turtle meat and eggs
    3. Marine pollution
    4. Disturbance from new tourism developments
    5. Targeted catching (turtling culture) by coastal communities
    6. International trade in turtle products
    7. Alteration and destruction of nesting beaches and habitats
    8. Naturally slow rate of recovery of various populations under different levels of exploitation and stress.

    F r e e ... a t l a s t.

    InkheartJe peux dire que c'est comme quand tu [read] une livre tr`es interessante: like the time when I was reading a book called: The of lost things. Quite fascinating book, but as if of pure habit, depicts the scenes and 'adventures' of kids in the 2nd WWar. But still - book about books. Much like , from Cornelia Funke, which is .. simply awesome.

    But what happened to me ... is ... a BIRTHDAY - like Joe Felice would call it, "in the old testament sort of way", id est, A REAL BIRTH-DAY. (Again, I mean it in the "Mutant message down-under" Aborigini way.)
    [The above link, ie., the anthropological view of the matter, has not been checked by me, so ... at your own risk. And meaning also, that it doesn't necessarily reflect my own opinion(s).]

    More about it soon, but: AUGUST 2008 and everything that follows May 2008 and now sept. '08 is just awesome.
    Peace out!

    Not the end of the world? Well, It's the NEW Large Hadron Collider, LHC

    Available in stores NOW!
    (Just kidding.)
    (/What?! You think it's inappropriate to joke of these things? Watch Texas Chainsaw Massacre or any of the 'horror' and thriller movies they're playing right now, like for exaple esta pelicula, and tell me: the murders in Australia, one year ago, Austria, year and a half, Magdaline, ... McCauli Caulkin was just a petty begining, people. So don't tell me of jokes in the modern, "civilised" world, OK?!)
    Some info:
    7 terra ... something,
    14 terra other; near-the-speed-of-light-travel-of-protons, 7 000 something other and 14 000 other ... It's sounds very educated. I dig it. Can you?;)
    Oh yeah, and you should see Dan Brown's video on "The end of the world .. tomorrow?!!!"
    Tchüss!

    US "making progress" towards ... East

    It about this: 'Another US strike' hits Pakistan.
    And a map, for those of you, less prone to Uncle Google searchings: map of Pakistan.
    And map of the region .. here.

    Now. Tell me: how ignorant do you have to be to not notice the fine location and ... next-one-to-another-fulness of Afganistan, Iraq, Iraq, Pakistan, India (Kashmir) and Iran, to finish with? (Alright, granted, people even get paranoid .. but people don't make mistakes - I wouldn't say if there was ... an experiment of some sorts.. I don't know - in US or Russia or Cern, ..., and I bet my head no one would say, in this modern day and age: "Uh, the world's going to end like - tomorrow!!!" Nobody, 'cause people read, right? They .. think, before they act, they ... educate themselves before they let blabber leave their mouth. Right? Right?:)
    It's pretty obvious, though:

    I heard from some people - can't remember exactly, who, but: I heard that perhaps the US&A will "look into ... say... 'freedom situation' in Iran." Yeah, Iran as well. Here comes Sammy!
    That's why we need Barrack Obama, ASAP, as soon as possible. Well, heeeellllooooo, november 2008!

    Blogger's detention ... and why my middle name is D.

    "No, no, no ... It's Austin D. Powers." [turns to the 'woman'] "Danger's my middle name, yes, baby."
    //Thank ... somebody .. for Mike Myers. Let him "go forth and multiply";)

    Thing is .. noone can say and really mean it: ...

    Being a blogger is apparently quite an exciting way to go. ;) (To the prison. Oh, I'm sorry - is "prison" not a "politically correct" word? Sorry.
    prisonprisonprisonprisonprisonprisonprisonprisonprisonprisonprisonprisonprisonprison
    prisonprisonprisonprisonprisonprisonprisonprisonprisonprisonprisonprisonprisonprison
    prisonprisonprisonprisonprisonprisonjailprisonprisonprisonprisonjail) Lol. Whoops. Sometimes my tongue just goes off with the fairies on its own.

    But that's my point: how politically correct do you need to be, in order to be let
    alone?
    Think about it.

    And then tell me if names like ... Jani Sever, Bob Kennedy, Diana (The 'Princes'), www.amnestyinternational.com and stuff like that has anything to do with the gist, the topic? Probably not. I'm just asking, I don't know. I'm just saying that they could have anything in common.

    And then tell me ... Is it really weird the types of modern day diseases we're facing?
    This, my friends, is Why I for one, think living your life to the foolest ... erm ... fullest is really something worth doing.

    SIMPLY sLOVEnia

    And I own that phrase! Geez, we were but kids when we started writing SLOVEnia on the post-cards and on letters, really. I can prove it. With friends from school and all over Slovenia ..
    And now - somebody really clever has obviously had an enlightening chat with so from the post office and made a discovery: S LOVE nia .. wow. No way, really!
    And thus, the "I feel SLOVEnia" slogan was born. Pathetic. But o.k., really.
    (By the way, d'you know what and where OK comes from?)

    But really - I think I'll kind of get to hate google's blogger for this. Why? Well, you can set the date of the post, can't you? And even this is on the 13th of september 2008, somebody, after they steal Simply Slovenia from me, will say - naah, you did it after-wards. Well, f*** it! It's about time for me to get to know the patent office and stuff;)) Want my money, man.
    Anyways: Slovenija really is beautiful. Thus proving the upper cut. Errm. Or the upper photo. Or both, I don't know - we have quite a good judo team. (Or so they say.)
