Come together

I have a vision of a Europe united under bad music and too much liquor. That’s what happened last night in Rentukka, and I believe it just might be the key to a better tomorrow. In other words, I spent the night dancing to the most horrible tunes of the 1990’s. In my friends words, I forbid you to dance to this song, spoken out loud when Tom Jones’ Sex bomb was playing. The way I see it is that if I’m on the dancefloor when Macarena is blasting out of the loudspeakers, there’s really nothing left to lose.

That night I bid farewell to all but one of my exchange student buddies and dancing to silly Eurodisco was probably the best way to alleviate the sting of separation. ’Tis been a funny old spring, and I still rate my first chance meeting with the guys the best thing to have happene all year.

At least now I’ve got someone to fall back on if I ever get lost in the UK, Germany or Estonia. Could’ve been worse, could’ve been much worse.

Lessons learned from Miami Vice

A friend mentioned on IRC that he’d been discussing the various benefits of Miami Vice. One thing led to another and finally climaxed in the phrase Ich habe ein Haustierkrokodil in meinem Muskelboot. ’Nuff said.

My perfect Sunday

Say what you want, but having a poo, drinking coffee and reading a good magazine simultaneously is just about the best way to pass one’s Sundays.

Brown envelopes

The doorbell rang. I quickly put on some clothes and went to open the door. It was the postman. She handed over a pile of padded brown envelopes from Play.com. I thanked her.

Then she paused for a moment before asking with a smile on her face what on Earth it was that I was always ordering.

Obviously it’s taken her some time to build up the courage to ask.

Pah.

Näpit palaa

Pitelin äsken kahvikupin reunasta kiinni niin, että etusormeni jäi kupin ulkopuolelle ja peukku sisälle. Sitten kaadoin kuppiin tulikuumaa kahvia. Lopputuloksen voinee arvata.

Vielä leukatukasta

Eilen ulkonäköäni kommentoitiin lauseella En meinannut ensin tunnistaa sinua, kun näytät rosvolta. Onko tuo nyt sitten kehu vai moite?

Tuoksun määritelmä

Sattuipa eräissä illanistujaisissa niin, että aloimme väitellä kotieläinten ominaisodööristä. Minä totesin kissojen haisevan toisinaan pahalle, kun taas MT oli tiukasti sitä mieltä, että oma koira ei löyhkää ikuna. Tarkalleen ottaen Marja-Tertun fraasi kuului oma koira haisee vain tutulle. Tähän tokaisi Kimmo, että minä lopetan sitten suihkussa käymisen ja haisen vastedes ainoastaan tutulle.
