Remember the "Elvish Name Generator"? Being an Elf is obviously good for me, for as an Orc I'd be known as Globsnik the Pug-Nose.

At the moment, I have the feeling that my blog is rather boring. But that's because I really have nothing to say. Usually I'm in a bad mood and I don't want to bitch about it all the time. So I'll just talk about what's on the radio. I don't really DO anything either. As the French say: "Métro, boulot, dodo". Those wacky French people, those. Let me see. What happened yesterday:

• Got up
  
• Had some Senseo coffee (yum)
  
• Went to work
  
• Had some coffee at work
  
• Had more coffee
  
• Topped it off with coffee
  
• Had a roll for lunch (and coffee)
  
• Almost fell asleep around three (coffee seems not to be what it used to be)
  
• Went home at six
  
• Cleaned the kitchen, emptied the dishwasher, fed the cats
  
• Watched my online football team lose 6:0
  
• Had leftover Chinese food ("Flying dragon", No. 48)
  
• Had a piece of tuna lasagna ((c) Silgge)
  
• Had some pudding ((c) Katrin)
  
• Watched IBES-HMHR ("I'm a celebrity, get me out of here", v. funny yesterday)
  
• Adjusted my online football team, cuddled the cats, had some port and ventured into the territory of really bad poetry about alcohol chatting with P.
  
• Went to bed

How's that for exciting? I think I'll have myself some coffee now. Oh, another musical fun fact: The tune I always thought to be Radio Virgin's commercial jingle turned out to be the new Red Hot Chili Peppers song. Oops.

Today I can announce 11 correct answers in the journalism quiz. It would have been 12 had I stopped to think about Tucholsky for a moment and not just scratched my ass and answered the first thing that came to my mind. Then again, I guess there were a couple of lucky guesses. I hate it that people are so competitive - they used to give you the correct answers right away and some people went back and answered everything again to get full points. Whatever. Who cares. It's not like you can win anything. Even if you could I wouldn't care. If I really cared I'd look up the answers on the internet.

Anyway, this led to them not giving out the correct answers rightaway but a month later. When I care even less to look them up. Which means I'll never know what the right answers were and the quest to fight ignorance has been postponed to another time.

The strange thing: It actually worked - there are less people with all correct answers. Hello? As I said above: LOOK THEM UP ON THE INTERNET... but I guess if you're dumb enough to cheat on a stupid quiz you're probably dumb enough not to know how Google works. And I mean that in the purely operational sense, I guess not a lot of people know how Google really works.

Today that tune by Outkast is stuck in my head and the chiming thing is driving me nuts. (bing bing bing bing BING bing bing)

Get the monkey over to the other side!
