Moving! Away! Finally!

 Finally, getting rid of the last piece of G**gle in my life. :-) πŸ˜ƒπŸ˜„πŸ˜‡πŸ˜Š This blog has moved to a new address: https://christiankohl.net So change your bookmarks, I'm too lazy to apply a redirect here ... . No more updates will be found here and at some point in 2022 I will delete this site entirely. The new site is still work in progress, to be finished ca xmas 2021. Cheers!

La Gomera November 2021

Image
 Codename: Gran Culo con Agulo. 151,22km, 6820m ascent, 7090 descent. (Not counting the countless times we walked from Parador de la Gomera down to the city centre and back :-D .) Mostly around 20 degrees, sunny with a few clouds, perfect weather for hiking. Warm nights near sea level, more chilly up in the mountains. Sounds like the perfect vacation? It was. Except for the getting there and back, but that was to be expected. We live in a shit country (Germany) and unfortunately in a city that is not only the capital of Germany but also a shit capital. In Berlin, losers from all over assemble. In Berlin, everyone can fuck things up and they seem to be proud of it even. Because they are all just fucking losers maybe? Who knows. But. The. Thing. Is. They built a new airport. It's a 1990s airport that was "finished" and went live autumn 2020. Yes, it is as bad, probably even worse than it sounds. Of course it is not an airport, but a shopping mall with gates attached. And

Solar Power for our summer

 I readily admit to being blown away by this fantastic new song by Lorde. It's the perfect summer tune, I'm dancing naked through the Tiergarten each day to celebrate it! :-) https://youtu.be/wvsP_lzh2-8 Enjoy.

There are no German bombers in the air ...

 ... there are no German bombers in the air. There are no German bombers, there are no German bombers, there are no German bombers in the air! Cause the RAF from England shot them down, cause the RAF from England shot them down! Fuck off and go home. :-) 

Maybe it's not coming home, after all?

 While the British government has recently announced that they will delay further easing of Covid-19 related restrictions because the delta-variant that' spreading rapidly, UEFA still lives on a different planet. They are now blackmailing the English gov't to make special allowances for ca. 2500 VIP guests for the semifinal and final in Wembley, to exempt them from quarantine and other measures. If the gov't does not comply, they will move the final to the great democratic country of Hungary, Budapest. Isn't that great? So, two things.  1) I wish that all the UEFA decision makers, VIP guests, and executive members develop a disgusting rash in their genital regions that burns all summer. Plus they should really catch Covid, maybe that will cure their ignorance. But these guys are probably vaccinated since December last year already. 2) Great Britain is a nuclear power. No more Empire, but you still have nukes. So use them please. Nuke UEFA the fuck out! I'll donate s

It's coming home, it's coming home ...

... Covid's coming home. That should be the anthem of this year's European Championship tournament. There is no pandemic. At least not when it comes to soccer. Well, that is what our minister of the interior, Heinrich Himmler,  sorry, Horst Seehofer, has announced yesterday. For the upcoming European Championships, all quarantine requirements etc. are waived. And not just for the players, basically for everyone remotely involved with the event. Hahahahahaha. That's great. Especially given that even the heavily monitored teams are already reporting positive Covid-19 cases left and right. So it's a great idea by "The FΓΌhrer" - let's spread that shit again for real. Kill them all! Kill them all! Kill them all! My personal takeaway:  It's stupid to hold such an event in the first place. But it's big money, so it happens. But I haven't followed previous ones and I won't follow this one. Just hope that the German team fucks up.  This is a really

 Especially since us nerds all know how dangerous Beholders can be. ;-) Ugly business, that. Some nice things: We watched "Magnus" this weekend and I was positively impressed! Trashy, in a good anarchic way. Give it a try, but it's probably not for kids. ;-) Very funny, though.  https://youtu.be/IdrP8hjXR5k Then. Also. We. Had. A. Few. Days. Of. Real. Snow. In Berlin. Last week. Who would have thought that I'd see this again before I die? Very happy. I liked last week's weather much better than this week's ... . The good thing about snow is: It looks pretty, feels good, and Wooster goes craaaaaazy. Schnappi, too, of course. It's the only snow crocodile in the world. And the most dangerous one in the Northern hemisphere.
