Well, I saw a Lamborghini for the first time tonight. My life is complete. And my friend died this morning. Sky falling? I guess I can wait.

Beautiful saturday morning, it's 8:00 am, how long do I got if I'm in Central-European time (GMT+1), too early to do math.

Now, lets water the tomatoes

Ok, I'll be at my birthplace again, on a wedding anniversary of my aunt. With friends and family at a party. A merry way to end I suppose.

The other option would be early november this year. A 400-meter size near-earth-asteroid (designated 2005 YU55) is supposed to get closer than the moon. But apparently according to calculations, it's going to miss us. But you never know, they might have messed it up.

My condolences to both Castout and Anthony. So sorry to hear of the losses to you and your loved ones.


In some ways I guess every day is the last day for someone, we should all be reminded to make the most and the best of whatever time we're given.

That is deep. Way too deep for General Topics.

I dunno, it usually runs pretty deep in here. Sometimes I wear hipboots just in case.
