Have a nice weekend!!!!

I'm sure I will.
Too bad, it's supposed to rain tomorrow and Sunday, but as long as I can sleep in, it'll be fine.

Friday Five

Almost forgot about that...

What was...

1. ...your first grade teacher's name?
Frau G....I can't remember...but that was when I was still living in East Germany...
How about Frau Hell when I was in fourth grade in Hamburg?

2. ...your favorite Saturday morning cartoon?
Didn't have one. I guess it's just not a Saturday morning thing. But I loved "Das Sandmaenchen", which is a nightly show they had on in East Germany (and even after that) with the Sandman. I remember it always ended with him throwing the sand and then I got tired and went to bed....

3. ...the name of your very first best friend?
Dorothee. After I moved away from Berlin she came to see me (after the wall came down), but then we lost contact.

4. ...your favorite breakfast cereal?
I like frosted flakes and Smacks, but I hardly ever eat cereal. I like bread or rolls.

5. ...your favorite thing to do after school?
It used to be some kind of sport, but then, once I got older, it was getting stoned.
Now like a cold beer after work.

I'm off

Well, not until an hour or so, but I am done with blogging for today...
Maybe tomorrow I'll actually have something to post....who knows? It'll be Friday!!!!!

I need some motivation

Lately I've been getting so tired at this time of the day. Not really tired but I just don't have any energy.
I am starting to count the hours until I get to leave.
I can't even get any work done.
And it's not that there is anything going on that makes me upset and bothers me.
I am a happy camper, really.
So what is going on?????

Schade

Hamburgs älteste McDonald's-Filiale geschlossen

Wirklich, denn ich kann mich noch erinnern, wie ich manchmal nach der Schule aus dem Bus (damals war das der 182er) stieg und mir etwas von McDonalds gegonnen habe. Oder als ich eine Eltern angebettelt habe mir doch mal schnell einen 10er zu geben, damit ich dort Mittag holen konnte.

Komisch schon, was sich so alles aendert bzw. geaendert hat....und das in nur 5 Jahren.

That's it

I have nothing more to say or post.

I will start my countdown here and hope time passes really quick because I want to go home, or outside and enjoy the rest of this beautiful weather here.
Maybe I'll go out to eat tonight........

Where I have been

I always liked those maps that highlight where you have been in the world or the United Sates.
So, as I was just looking around on Rocket Jones' blog, I saw that he has those too, and so here are mine:

Guess, which Interstate I travel a lot?????



create your own personalized map of the USA
or write about it on the open travel guide


Well, I always thought I went to many countries, but it doesn't look like a lot. I am still young and have time to travel so that'll fill up.

What's wrong with people????

OK, somebody needs to explain this to me.
What has a Mickey Mouse statue, dressed in an outfit Janet Jackson wore over a decade ago, to do with he Super Bowl performance?
Disney took down this 6 foot statue in Orlando according to Gary Foster, a Disney spokesman, told the Orlando Sentinel, stating that "considering all the controversy it drew, we talked it over for a couple of days and decided it would be best to replace hers with a new one."
It also states in that article "The Jackson statue used a tight black outfit". My god, Mickey Mouse really looks offensive.
Judge for yourselves:



Maybe it is because Mickey, supposedly a male, is wearing something a woman wore????

Get over yourselves!

A great Howard Stern discussion

Jeff Jarvis has a very interesting discussion going on about the whole issue with the FCC, Clear Channel, and Howard Stern. I have been reading most of it and find it very interesting.
Take a look and voice your opinion.

I'm back

After an involuntary long weekend I am finally back at work. Although today would be a nice day to stay at home and enjoy the wonderful weather. They say it'll be about 72 degrees today!!!!
Oh well, I lost that day yesterday trying to break the world record in "Who can hug the toilet the longest????" I'm sure I won.
