Suri Cruise’s First Poop”… yap, you read right! As we all know: art is a matter of definition! And now someone defined a bronze version of a child’s first poop to be art!

And now you have to excuse…
I gotta make some art…

Copenhagen Street Soccer 2006

Woohoo!
The “Academic Soccer Players” actually made it to the second round! Rock on!
For some explanations: This weekend there is the Copenhagen Street Soccer 2006 Tournament in which Troels, Esben, some of their fellows and me are taking part. And surprisingly we made it to the second round with a fabulous 4 wins in a row series… well, we got one win, because the team ran away just before the game (what is that supposed to mean?)… anyway!

More about the final round tomorrow…

Left Handers Day

Yeah right… there is a day for everything!
But it’s more this time… it’s the “Left Handers Day” today. And just about a year ago I wrote an entry about my observation that a lot of theorists around me are left handed (and/or color-blind)…
And now guess what… someone made a paper out of this… suspicious isn’t it?
Anyway… some guys from the Lafayette College in Pennsylvania published a paper which actually supports my theory… hah! They could even show (more or less) that among males with an university degree, left handers earn between 13 to 21 percent more in their jobs… hmm

Anyway²
Greetz to all left handers…

Ever heard about “Straight-Edge”?!

I just found out that I am (at least sort of) living the “Straight-Edge“-Way-Of-Life…
Without even knowing about the existence of this “culture” I followed the principle rules quite well (even though the reasons might differ): no cigarettes, no alcohol and no recreational drug use! Even some additional commitments like abstaining from promiscuous sexual behavior and caffeine are fully or partially (this refers only to the caffeine, since cola has it too) fulfilled.
I would actually be the perfect Straight-Edger, if I just refused eating meat and listened to Hardcore Punk of some kind.
Which are “unfortunately” two things I could definitely not live with… never!
So besides these discrepancies I would be eligible for wearing a black cross tattoo on the back of my hands. Which apparently is the “sign” to identify a “real” Straight-Edger… and again another fact I just wouldn’t like…
Well… one thing I have in common with these people is the fact that many other people just do not (want to) understand…
Greetz to Thomas at this point ;-)
