Home, ill

I got a cold at the end of last week and it hit me hard this weekend. Initially you think that it's not that bad, you get time to play computer, watch tv/movies etc.. how wrong was I! Just about the only form of entertainment occupying me the passed 4-5 days have been counting the tiles in my bedroom celing (which is 21). Thankfully I got a lot of sympathy from friends and all my extra-moms, and Tone even came by with Tom & Jerry-biscuits, coke and cartoons :-D

Fever is gone so I'll have a go at work tomorrow and see how it goes.

Local Celebrity Part III

Had almost forgot about this, but as promised here and here, here is finally my interview in electronic form! Actually it was my boss who found the electronic version today, but he's a good sport and actually posted it on our local news portal at work ;-)

Traded a paper clip for a house

Heard about this guy a while back, good to hear he (sort of) made it!

Karl the distinguished

We might be seeing Karl's little mank head on video from now on, check out the teaser on iTunes!
Wanna hear Karl laugh? This is pretty exclusive and it might ruin your experience of him - you have been warned!

The human ball

Was working overtime late at night on tuesday and needed some food, so I went to the nearest gasstation to get a burger. Went to the teller, looked to my left and saw an old cupple. They both looked 75-ish, the lady had a nice little head, normal body, evenly porpotioned legs and all. The guy though; he was pretty small most all over, you know, like old people that have shrunk a bit, although his jacket was huge! Not only was it huge, it looked really round in every direction. It was such that he could shoplift one of those big plastic balls you can jump around on, and noone would notice! What made me look twice was his head - it was just unbelievely small! And because his jacket was so big his neck was just an inch too small for his head to stick out of it! He loocked like one of the characters from "Kalle Klovn", the deliveryguy if I remember correctly, just with no neck.

I had to wait with my order because I was on the werge of bursting - afterwards I damned myself for being too polite to take a picture of them for your viewing pleasure.. Gonna stick around there to see if he shows up again!

Zzzz..

Apparently I snore. I'we heard it before but I guess I have dismissed it on a subconcious level or something. Nothing compared to my father tho, he snores so loudly the whole house trembles. Maybe it's that compared to him I don't really make much noise.
My father doesn't sneeze a lot, but when he does it says in the paper the next day!

Read about a armwatch that gives you a small shock whenever you snore. Seems cruel to me, can't imagine who would wear it freely. And it doesn't even show the time.

Summertime

Tonight we loose one hour of sleep, remember to set your watch one hour forward. I have never really understood this concept - seems like a design flaw to me.. I may not be as confused as Karl Pilkington tho, he has on several occations given pretty interesting theories on what should be done with the whole concept of time when, if, we move to another planet, as he thinks the elderly would become pretty grumpy if we adjust it to suit the planet's orbital movements.
