new headphones

Monday, Feb 2, 2004

today my cheapo headphone was killed in an accident (it fell out my bag while i was on the bike and the cord was ripped off, no big deal, it only costed 9.90 a year ago.) so i thought it’s about time to get a real headphone: i went to eschenmoser (my favourite discounter here in bern) and after trying out all the headphone they had on diplay there (ok, i did not really think about getting a headphone for 590 swiss francs ) i bought the koss portapro (pictured left) for 99 CHF. This sounds quite expensive, but i have to say it was the best headphone i listened to, the quality in the shop was really impressive. the moment i came out of the shop i started to realize that i bought the real thing . when i plugged the koss into my ipod i knew i was missing something since the moment i bought those cheap headphones i used since a year or so. the sound-quality is at least ten times better :-)

comments don't work

Sunday, Feb 1, 2004

i know the comments don’t work at all. it’s a problem with the update of MTBlacklist, i’m working on it. good night.

update: after b. did some of his touch-some-buttons-magic, the permissions on the server were set right, and i could update the two necessary files and everything now works like a charm, keep those comments flowing (i’m working on a funky feature concerning the comments…)

ah well then

Saturday, Jan 31, 2004

btw: the photo-shooting i mentioned some days ago happened without me (through some organization hiccup, i was scheduled on wednesday, but then they switched it to thursday so that i couldn’t go). ah, well, in this case no new ipod for me, instead i got me a second digi-cam :-)

oh, and arlette mentioned that maybe i can walk in a fashion show on the 20th march, i’ll keep you updated…

boah, this is what i call spamming!

Saturday, Jan 31, 2004

today when i checked my mail i nearly couldn’t believe it, i got 176 new mails in my gna -inbox. first i thought it’s a major hit of mydoom.a , but then i found out, that it’s just a major issue of blog-spam. not too bad, the guy (i suppose it’s a guy, so no offense to all my female readers…) managed to spam each and every entry on my blog. despite i have MTBlacklist installed, all the keywords he used slipped through MTBlacklist’ filter. it’s gonna cost me quite some time do de-spam the whole blog.

music can be such a turn-on

Thursday, Jan 29, 2004

i couldn’t live without music! my itunes is always set on random working through 1304 songs (at the moment), and now it played “club soda” by [thomas bangalter](https://google.com/search?q=%22Thomas Bangalter%22) which is about the grooviest electro-track ever made. i remember the first time i heard that song: it was when i watched a dvd i won in a competition, vanity9 . i had the videobeamer of a friend and watched it around two o’clock in the morning nearly on full volume. that track just blew me away. if you click on the link above you get to the site where you can watch some samples of that dvd, if you just want to listen to a sample then click here (from the [d@ft crew](d@ft crew ) samples page )

and i always thought i'm geeky

Wednesday, Jan 28, 2004

check out phil torrones portable geek gym, which he posted on his geek-blog . you have to watch the movie (.mov, 2.8 mb) to get the point, the picture does not fully account the geekness of it.

nice recipe

Tuesday, Jan 27, 2004

my wintercurry ( ) doesn’t look like the one in the recipe (german only), but was really really really tasty none the less. and the guys and gals at work liked it a lot, so if you do not know what to cook tomorrow, this is a good one to try.

btw: wastun.ch sends you a nice recipe to try out each and every week. they call the recipes “open source”, because all the recipes are special recipes from users who send them in. so most of the recipes have a really original touch, use some special ingredients (or do you ever use celery rods for cooking? me neither, but the risotto was fabulous.). if you look at the titles of all the recipes most of them have a special twist and are good to spruce up your in-the-head-cook-book.
