California -> memories Near a year being together with my nowadays wife. Doing a camping trip through scandinavia to the north cape in summer breakes. My older sister gave us her VW T3 California. We returned engaged... My sister's is ivory coloured and ather home in Portugal.

movie -> The Mouse That Roared An impoverished backward nation declares a war on the United States of America. Their wine sells are dropping because of cheap american wine plagiating theirs. They are hoping to lose because america allways helps nations who loose war against them. But things don't go according to plan. Their 20 men troops armed with longbows win...

Martin Cruz Smith... I have just one book from him: The Indians won The german translation was: Der andere Sieger / A different winner Nice what if about the indians didn't depart after Little Big Horn but building one big Indian Nation. The USA would be just the east and the west coast.The plain lands would be Indian territory. And what make me puzzled, would Trump be there president too, withióut the plain lands ?

Local people like bats actually. Probably because nearly every house has some under the roof- but not thousands as at work. The secretary of our company could be called mother bat. She scans the bunker for baby bats who lost their mother and raises them per hand feeding. Diseases: The reason is probably that bats have a fantastic immune system. They can carry diseases without getting much harm. The fecals contain some rotting insect parts which are 'worked' by bacteria. These bacteria were the reason for my problems. Wife was right (as always). The loss of focusing was too fast to be age dependand. An infect was her first thought.

Sun and rain mixing at around 12C. Mr.Crane reading the newspaper. Trump leaving clima conference, america drills for more oil. Mr: Crane to Mrs Crane: 'Good news, soon there will be no reason to do all this flying to africa and back.' Global warming must be the reason why first chains of cranes fly north this early in year. https://www.kraniche.de/en/crane-staging-wintering-sites-in-europe.html

Turned out as an eye infect from bat fecals. Infect is nearly gone. We have thousands of bats in our below earth bunkers at work.

G'Moie - lang is es her... Die Grosse hat Sacred2 PvP mit ihrer Melee-Elfe gegen Klassenkameraden gespielt und jetzt hat sie drei Kinder...

The Queen's Gambit-> Donald E.Knuth I know many chess players who like to have the chessboard in a random order at the start. So it is not a matter of knowing the most normal openings from chess data bases. Knuth is/was a wise man saying:: Random numbers should not be generated with a method chosen at random I am old, learned programming with this:

I do hard with all the names of pork cuts in different languages, not even the english names are the same: Naming of cuts from pork In british naming Eisbein would be hock In american hock would be more the fore feet And of cause the german cutting scheme I used in my lastpostis different to both of them.

You never tried Haspel/Eisbein probably. Southern Germany has it roasted and crispy and the Eisbein is named Haxn. At our place slightly smoked and boiled in a pot with Sauerkraut and is Haspel. The cut

Noticed that I am getting old. Bought a Thunderbold 5 dock with the possibility to insert SSD's. I never had problem's with 'near nose' work. But yesterday I noticed that my eyes couldn't focus on the ssd. Wife phoned a specialist for eyes and I got a termin for today. She feared that I would come home in pieces from work. Need close vision when I work with explosives.

Speaking about drama... Had to place a 500metre roll of barrier tape around my 26 goats. The hoof and mouth disease had an outbreak near Berlin. There is a resting place of the Autobahn near my goats and families with kids used to watch them. I did the barrier tape 2 metres away from the fence to prevent feeding and touching. Also placed some signs. Luckily the goats are still healthyand were immunisized hopefully against the right type of the virus. The main useage of the goats is to prevent turning the grasland into bushland to keep a puffer zone with less burning risc around my forest.Two old ladies do the milking and give rthe milk and cheese for free to people in the village.

Funny, Golden Earring was the first band I heard live. Did parametre security as a firefighter. Sadly it was only heard and not seen I like the randomness in radio listening. Was just in the radio the german original version of this:

Think you know about our central oven whose heat runs through channels below the central staircase. Near the top are openings to dry fruit or fruit chips. Currently chips from quinces spiced with just salt and pepper. Yummy I used chilli or wasabi for 4 years as spice.But with grandchildren around I am back to lightly salted and peppered.

Our ice hockey field is still frozen. There is sun in the morning.The sun heats thé ground and it gets misty. But in afternoon when the sun shines on the field it produces some wind in the valley which removes the fog. I could say perfectly designed by me, but in factit is the only flatfield I have *censored* there seems to be some dirtbellow the space key

corinthian leather -> Piemont Cherry Something like the cherries from Piemont in the pralines. The ad says there are Piemont Cherries in Mon Chéri. I know a cherry farmer who says he delivers them and they are from germany and his ones are named 'Schwarzer Schüttler'. Sounds nowhere as good I haveto agree.

Wild life is very complex. For years treehuggers claimed that the reduce in wildlife was because of farmers. I allways said that wildlife was intact before the new road was build. Now university says that I was right all the time. The road brought people from town with dogs who want to have them run in nature. The last 5 dead hares I found didn't die because of insectoids, fertilizer, too few not worked land, ... They starved with a full stomach. Each time a person with a dogs gets close a hare starts a trembling in his muscles to warm them up in case it has to flee. This uses big amounts of energy. Energy it can't get back if every 15 minutes there is another dog. The lynx needs hares and itself won't hunt if there are dogs around. We have hares and such because cars can't turn except at our house. The roads in the forest are - oh wonder- mathematical optimized ways. Given we have 5 places to place cut trees. We want a minimal way to connect them all to chop as little trees for the ways. We want no chessboard ways where a storm can get speed and makes trees fall, ..., we want dead ends to keep cars and bicycles away. An algorithm to do this for 5 points. Okay, stop mathematics. The field I flooded is frozen, the sun is shining, time to get my ice hockey goalie equip and play a bit with the twins before all the neighbour village kids notice and wanna join.

Our third started to visit an art school and only came home for weekends. So the cat looked for someone who needed her. Cats are so wise.

There is a saying about cats: You can choose a dog, but a cat will choose its human. Countryside cats stray around and they stay at a house they like. One of our cats left us and decided to stay at an very old lady who is very happy about the cat.

High prices are paid for hyrid cats, mixes of a wild cat and house cat. But the Blender is not on the list people pay for. Personally I think these hybrid breeds shouldn't be done. They look cute, but you can't predict the character. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Domestic–wild_hybrid_cats Nearly every house cat in a 20 mile zone is castrated. This is the main reason the wild cat has a chance.

We call these interbreds 'Blender. Not tamable too. Tried it years ago when the Kartäuzer cat of my wife gave birth to obvious 'Blenders'. Very strange demonic looking large cat mix. Gave them castrated to farmers and water police(!!!) to hunt rats on farms and the boat house. Didn't want them near to young kids who thought all cats are nice and peaceful. A Kartäuzer, blue-grey fur,and the Blender got their share of the blue.

Wild cat isn#t wild cat. You can tame tigers, lions, cougars but not an European wildcat.They are the only catspecies you can't. They were on the red list but population nearly doubled the last 6 years because of bridges and tunnels connecting forests which were parted by autobahns or rivers. The routes are also used it seems by lynx, biber, badges, wolves, ...

Did my old avatar back. Fits because it is proved that we have wildcats again in our forest. Not seen yet. But we ülace wooden poles with catmint oil. The cats will rub at the pole and loose a few hairs. University then does a gene probe.

Thrones -> enthroned Presidents of the USA come and go. But there is a king enthroned on the Usa. The Usa is a small river in Bad Nauheim. Elvis was as a soldier in the nearby garrison. There was a photo of him standing on the bridge over the Usa. Few years back they placed a statue there.

Newbies, you are all newbies. Newbies shouldn't be allowed for big guns. Start with the Cricket as in MiB. And given the fun Ascaron dev's had, doing the easteregg Noisy Cricket as BFG weapon would fit
