A while ago, a good friend sent me an email about an upcoming important moment which would occur on01:02:03 on 04/05/06, or in simpler language early after midnight on the 5th of April. I saw a similar posting in Bipolar Kat‘s blog, where I commented that for some of us, this magic moment just...

This is my weather…
Apparently, according to this net quiz I am a lightning. Curious questions, curious choices for answers, and though I like lightnings, I don’t care at all (nor I agree with) violence, random or otherwise. For the interested ones, I came across this site after reading about it at Eric Raymond’s blog, titled Armed and...
Risk Rating

The...

One can only assume that the Hungarian(s) bureaucrat(s) who was/were working at their local department of transportation was/were not fluent in English. However, one cannot but simply ask the question: “What were they thinking when they issued this car plate?” Cheers, Ioannis, 20040621154000...
Otto Rehhagel for President
In the general climate of pan-hellenic euphoria after the 1-1 draw against Spain, I think that Otto Rehhagel, coach of our national soccer team, should be our next president of the hellenic republic.
