No, this is not a post on the difference between good and evil, although I of course am obviously good and everything that opposes me is therefor clearly evil, this is a post about the difference between brilliant art and art that is anything else.

Might be a bit harsh for me. Normally I don’t condone such remarks, but lately I have noticed that we’ve all become (in my eyes) overly concerned with [...]

I let my mind wander and wondered about the things we don’t say. I expect (and usually get) honesty, but not only that, openness and a direct approach are high on my list too. Yet I’m not sure I pay others the same courtesy as I expect of them[...]

I have cleaned up my apartment, that is to say, my bedroom is a semi mess, but that’s just because of the amount of unfolded laundry, should only take me one evening to sort that out as well (probably tomorrow night, as tonight is the last sunny evening in a while)

I *love* my job, somehow a minor ajustment on my part resulted in the feeling that I have a completely new and even greater job. However, if I have to get up at 4:30 (ish) to get to work in time (5:45), I do start [...]

Think alike :-)
Walking on Geneva airport yesterday, I remembered that I *NEED* a watch, I’ve been going without it for about two years again, and I just keep forgetting to buy me a nice one. I found Body and soul, a self winding watch of good quality (I know someone who has used it for [...]

I’m sitting in a very comfortable kitchen, capuchino maker close by, laptop with Skype to muffin decapitating boy whom I missed dearly as he left for NYC on Wednesday (and I’m only returning from Switzerland on Monday!).
