122 to go!
actually, it’s more like 122 - 126 - 153.
BTW, the title is showing one of many possible “butt” emoticons.

- all that singing brought me back to a lot of pondering. and not the kind of “pinky, are you pondering what i’m pondering”…
i’m still of the opinion that my version of “the perfect choir” excludes me - which is kind-of tragic…
over the last few months i have hardly been singing at all, only at very rare occasions - and now i suck. i sort of degraded, vocally.
right now, i’m seriously contemplating joining a choir again, even though it isn’t perfect (because i can join…). but it’s close!
i’m not sure why i never published that post. probably forgot to…
so i DID join that choir in the beginning of may, and ever since, i sang at three masses. there’s a concert coming up on monday, and the schedule just keeps going…
still very enthusiastic!
this week there will be elections for student representation.
that’s not something bad, right?
wrong - because all of the contestant parties are legally allowed to send mass emails to EVERY SINGLE student, using one central email address list. :evil:
this sucks. it’s really annoying - not just for me, but also for some fellow students (well, probably not as much).
we can’t opt out from the snail mail trash letters they send, and now they’re even taking away the fun of email.
i am pissed! :evil:
i can’t fight the spamming directly (i sent an email to the rector and all (!!) of his co-workers/assistants, and received an “it’s the law, we can’t fight it”-response), but in case you want to contact those honest (…) and simply-caring-about-others (…) people, here are the email addresses of all most of* the parties and their nominees (list will be completed day-to-day):
* some of the parties don’t even name their contestants…
- email email email email email email email email email email email email email email email email email email email email email email email email email email email email email email email email email email email email email email email email email email email email email email email email email email email email email email email email email email email email email email
where possible, i looked up the university email adresses (csa…), so you can get in touch directly, and not through some fakey forwarding mailbox…
please do not use this list for spamming, and i can only HOPE that no spambots and/or email address crawlers get to my site.
because that’s the last thing i want! no, honestly :twisted:
isn’t someone, who doesn’t abide intolerance, intolerant themselves?
don’t get me wrong - i’m anything but advertising intolerance. i just tried to apply some logic… and we should call a spade a spade, right?
finally, i’ve taken the time to upload some more photos from the “long long ago”:
several innsbruck photos have accumulated, so there’s another part of [innsbruck at night (3)].
(previous innsbruck-related sessions that didn’t have their own post:
)
then, there’s a “portrait” on skin (applying the super-macro technique) that i wanted to put online for some time: [super macro: skin]
there are lots of other photos i’ll try to get online, but not tonight…
ever found a morel?
my dad was working as a ranger for over 20 years, and has only once found morels in the forest.
now, the species “morchella conica” (at least i think so!?) is growing in our backyard - apparently, the bark mulch was “infected” with that fungus!
found this at kaspar zbinden’s blog:
sometime ago, the us military published a censored pdf on the shooting of an italian journalist in iraq.
apparently there are still enough stupid people in this world - they censored the document digitally by setting a black background.
all you have to do to bypass this, is copy the text and paste it somewhere else (word, notepad, …) - and you have the full report. :cool:
i know it’s not breaking news, but it’s worth pointing your finger at, shouting “ha-ha!” :mrgreen:
