We watched "Sin City" last night. Somehow, most of the cult flicks comepletely fly by me. Like "Fight Club" I was far more impressed with the cast than the movie. I have to say that I can put "Sin City" in good as opposed to Crap! like "Fight Club"

I guess that I need to avoid listening to people in regards to movies and if...

I'm bruised and abused but day #1 of snowboarding was and incredibly fun experience! I went with my friends Tom (the crazy Scottish guy) and Kit another American. We took a beginning class and managed to get up to where I might be able to practice enough to J-Turn my way down the mountain.

Blogger update for your perusal.... Enjoy? wink

So, added Ragdoll to my (short) list of Friends. Woohpee!

This video is hysterical... if you like Jack Black

Jack Black, Lord of the Rings spoof! biggrin

We're off to Garmisch this weekend to watch Bode Miller (USA) in the Downhill World Cup race on Saturday. Then on Sunday, we'll go XC skiing ourselves.

If we get home in time, Kera and our friend Sara are...

Hincapie or Danielson? Who will be the next leader of Discovery Channel?

Who knows... without Lance.. it ought to be an interesting year. I'm sure that we'll be heading over to the Tour at some point. France is only a couple of hours from here. A tad closer than Kansas City was.

Bitchin' time... an email I sent to my wife...

So, for some reason,...

I have found that low alcohol content beer and Radler's, finally, freeze when it's below 10 F. Woke up this morning to 8 F/-13 C. It's freakin' cold out. I looked out on the back balcony to see a number of the beer bottles (normal in Germany to use our balconies as refrigerators in the cooler weather) blown up or leaking. Damn! A complete lack...

When we left the states, I traded a nice set of mountain bike wheels to a friend for his snowboard (a Burton), bindings and boots. Well, the boots were too small and the bindings are step-in so they're relatively proprietary.

Today, I replaced the boots with Van's Danny Cass II and the bindings with a Drake Mikey LeBlanc model.

Now... got to go use 'em....

We spent the day doing errands and working out. We went to a spin class at 10:00 that was great. The guy teaching the class obviously really enjoys teaching and motivating people. Great music, lots of playing and dancing. Imagine doing push-ups and then one arm push-ups whilst spinning away on a spin bike.

Also on tap was getting various food items forf Kera to...

I just liked the tree. I like trees a lot. And yes, it's similar to what I want on my back, except with roots instead of a reflection. I really just wanted to put something up there instead of my rambling banter for people to look at should they stop when I'm not around.
erleichda:
Yes, I did. In fact I'll be moving tomorrow. The new place is somewhat smaller but it's got a lot more light and it's in a much better location. Feels real good, too.

I'm a little pissed, though, for having to pay 800 euros as a fee for the realtor. But I had to find something real quick. The mold was already starting to eat at my furniture.

You'll miss the sports obsession even less once the soccer wc has started. 3 weeks of nothing else.

So, should we converse in german now?

My current news...
We got an offer on our house.. wish us luck that they accept our counter.

We, finally, get our car next Thursday. It'll be nice to be able to get out of town when we want to. I'm sure we'll take a weekend trip next weekend just to get out of town. We're both feeling a little "trapped" as we've not really...

Day two of school complete... not too bad, so far. Ended up with a shitload of homework/hausaufgaben last night (3 hours/ 3 Stunde). Tonight isn't too bad either.

Cold as hell here.. it was 19 F or so when I got up this a.m. and about a degree warmer when I went to and came home from school. The good part is that it was...

Frohes neues Jahr dir auch.

Still looking for a new place but it's not as grim as a year ago when I rented the decaying shithole I'm dwelling in now.

So you tried skiing and failed? How about snowboarding?
erleichda:
That autobahn-pic was taken in the seventies on a "Autofreier Sonntag". During the oilcrisis the government asked for everybody to not use their vehicles on that day. Imagine that today. Would not work anymore.

Just returned from looking at a wohnung which was actually quite nice, in Untersendling/Au near Schyrenbad. I might try to get that one.

Ugh! Did the Snow (ICE) Race yesterday. Kind of feel as though I've been beaten up and left in an alley. I did get lucky #13 (my birthday, oddly enough) and that probably dictated how many times that I'd hit the ground.

In 51 km I had somewhere in the neighborhood of 10-13 crashes. Most of them were on the first lap. I had two...

Wish me luck folks... I have a "meet and greet' sort of thing tonight with a bike shop owner that's looking for a new employee. It's one of those "I know this guy" sort of things.

The shop owner is the guy that's driving us to the race on Friday in Augsberg. It'll be interesting to meet him and see what kind of vibe I...

It's snowing here. Has been since before I woke up this morgen. I went out on the fixie, met Kera for lunch and then went to buy yarn for Kera so that she can knit me a sweater and then a Lonely Planet travel guide to Egypt as we're going there for 2 weeks in Feb.

New Years here it fun. Everyone, I mean everyone...

I actually baked the phone to recover it from the washing. But this phone has been on a suicide mission since I got it. This is the 3rd time I almost had to buy a new one.

Egypt! Kick ass!

I'll get to work on the tat design for you. smile I'm not an artist so I don't have anything on paper yet. But I can tell you it will be a tree and it will be a full back piece.
