Well, since we were expecting company, I started cleaning out the basement which has the look of a shipping base since all the stuff for the renovations and my bike upgrades comes in there. As i was doing so, I came across an old fire detector (We replaced those with a more advanced system by Bosh with central monitoring and double failsafe outgoing communication lines (Yes, as former telecom engineer, I like redundancy in all systems.) I’m also a paranoid bastard who’ll think ways around systems to see if they can be outsmarted. In this context, I also had to look to see if the old detector had fissionables in them since they can always come in handy when it comes to practical jokes (Note to Daphné, the resident counter-terrorism expert and lizardly-shoed one, it was unfortunately one of the newer type with optical detection). On a side-note the metal parts were unexpectedly sharp so It’ll be nine-finger typing on Monday. I really do wonder why all sharp things seem to have it in for my pinkie. (it’s Pinky and the Brain, yes Pinky and the Brain, one is a genius, the other’s insaaane…). So as I was opening up the stuff, my iPod (well, one of the pink backup iPods actually : ) switches over to the theme from mission impossible. I wonder how much Apple is starting to know about me to make such good predictions. By the way, trying to make left-handed images with a dslr of a finger on the right hand is nearly impossible if you’re right-handed and working with little light. On retrospect, maybe normal people would have grabbed a bandage instead of the right lens to get it in focus. Fortunately I had some disinfectant nearby from the time a got that Tribal tattoo on my shoulder. So no problems there. (just kidding, I know my mum reads this stuff too. Hi mum. how about that Canon 70-200 F 2.8 L IS and 7D body for Christmas or that CBF 125/varader 125? Oh and our daughter is really out to get the rear doors open of the VW golf. The VW Scirocco has no rear doors. Coincidence? I think not. Tell dad to get the one with the 170bhp diesel or 210bhp gasoline and DSG transmission. Shadowblue or Salsared, preferably with the VW Dynaudio Excite speaker upgrade package. Mann gönnt sich ja sonst nichts.
