now i can imagine what's inside willy dungl's "gute laune" tea that makes hannes so high: the german institute for consumer protection stiftung warentest has tested 50 different teas with fruit flavor and found only five which do not contain residues of pesticides.

cardamom, as if!

"in advance of a broken arm" is the title of saydog's first cd release (the saydog website is yet to come, please hold on). it's an unusual mixture of dark urban soundtracks, somewhere between nine inch nails, tortoise and jean-michel jarre (but quickly let's forget about these inferior comparisons). i favor the calm, mystical compositions although the chasing ones contain interesting twists and breaks – but almost never a straight beat. those who know the cd-rom ribingu rumu might find some audible similarities between the sound design and saydog's musical work – and in fact, it was made by one and the same person, michael strengberg, who i once again recommend as musician of choice for your next multimedial project.

hey, barbara has some original ribingu rumu footage!

to be honest and to sound as arrogant as possible for a lightweight internet oppossum: i am not very delighted by rssmonkey. reason 1: it cannot handle rss 1.0 extensions, e.g. dublin core. reason 2: i have to download, install and configure a lot before i even can render any rss feed. reason 3: it's slow. reason 4: it makes crude things with a simple apostroph. reason 5: it has a better designed website than i have for my own rss utility. <g>

btw. when will we forget about the term "special" characters? e.g. like letters with hacek, ogonek or macron? they are bloody unspecial characters here in europe, so get used to support them.

man schreibt deutsh: roger willemsen ist ang'fressen auf peter praschl. weil willemsen kein mösenkopf sein will. aber praschl schreibt dagegen und das macht er gut. denn, obwohl es mich überhaupt nicht wundert, daß eitelkeit gerade auf weblogs besonders bizarre formen annimmt (siehe auch das folgende zitat aus den comments), schreibt praschl vor allem weiterhin zum thema (ie. der krieg in afghanistan und weblogs). das ist mir mindestens genausoviel beachtung wert, wie sein liebenswerter hang zur gesperrten schreibweise.

"kein leser kann es schaffen, die anspielungen, rollentausche, provaktionen und dann wieder ernstgemeinten persönlichen statements der weblog autoren auseinander zu halten." – ralf, aus den comments zum sofablog.

btw. was ist eigentlich aus fotzenfritz geworden...? aha.

probably old like dutch cheese but still worth looking at: collateral damage? (via popo.at).

how nice: arfco 3000 is distributing his brazilophiles compilation, containing "the best 60's bossa nova, samba and latin jazz called tunes" he had two years ago, at art of the mix.

tom greene or: why it takes more to be a public asshole: "i found it interesting that the censors say you can't show somebody's balls on tv. but you can if they're already removed from the scrotum. that's ok".

"my bum is on the blog my bum is on the blog look at me, my bum is on the blog." – inspired by tom greene.

wow! no, wait a moment: argh! yesterday there were more than 200 unique visitors here at p3k. darn, this could mean i get another warning from my provider. or probably he even will cancel my account... why are you doing this to me? just for that bloody morningafter.jpg or because of that ostensible "virgin" image? come on! why don't you molest the sites which are greedy for traffic? go away! there's nothing to see here for you anyway! y'all suck!
