Not much going on around here in the past days. A lot of work, meaning mor quality time at my office.

Someone help me with this. I once more heard that song which seems to be a remix of Lust for Life and sounds a bit Beastie-Boys-esque (to my ears anyway). I still don't know whom it is by and can't get it out of my head. Investigations from Google to file sharing networks didn't help either. Hints will be appreciated.

Elections for the European parliament today. The school we voted in was slightly uphill from our house.

European football championship began yesterday. This means the countries are defunct between six and ten at night for the weeks to come (you may use this to your advantage if you're planning an invasion). People are crazy – and needless to say I disapprove.

Losing against France will be particularly bad as it'll prove their inferiority not only in food and weather but also in football.

Actually I saw a report on telly how Portugal has been locked down for the tournament. They close schools early so the kids can get home before the hooligans get up, they reinstated border controls and have air defenses up against potential terrorist attacks. Ah, the civilised entertainment that are sports!
