typical for halloween?

i got up and found out by reading the tv-program on the loo that vox was showing the royal tenenbaums from 6:20 am..... another reason to have a telly in the bedroom.
GREAT movie! great music for the morning after halloween, cold, misty....

it's a good day

a) my erg arrived [that's really fast since i ordered it on tuesday]
b) we signed our contract for the new flat!
yupieh

more erg videos

all with the same theme:
devotion to a dreadfull mashine

beach body 2009

after the devestating effect of yesterdays first circuit training and last weeks wheights training i actually finished a lontime thought and ordered me a concept 2 rowing erg.....

that's what it looks like and no, that's not me, but yes, it's in sydney, and yes; it's meant for indoor use ;)

the beauty wihtin

why should i buy ski from gucci?
or why should someone buy coffey for more then 3 € when you can have a great cortado around the corner for just 1,20 €?
is there really need for a style-company to sweep the market with "sport glasses"?
why choose a poloshirt from the so called "designer" tommy hilfiger [he himself pronounced this title and picked the option for very unnatural looking teeth] when there a shorts from [for example] lacoste or fred perry, which have have prooven their style over decades?
why watch football/soccer when there is the rugby worldcup? [zero response in germany]
why listen to madonna when the "originators" as liam howlet from the prodigy refused to work with her / for her new album [his great words were " i could directly sell my soul to the devil"] or from jaques lu cont?

if anyone can answer one of these, besides the last question of course, drop a comment.

good news everyone....

more rugby

something for the weekend

as i will be participating in the river rhine marathon, the rugby worldcup in france sports some great games.
here is what it looked like in 2003 in oz ;)
impressive, not to mess with:


by the way, the landlord agreed so that i might move in a couple of months

more music

the great resource for some interesting music, weareie has found a great mix of some of the bigges tdancehall anthems that all appeared in some jungle tunes. go trainspotters, hush hush, name all the jungle tunes you can for each sample....
otherwise download the bloggariddims mixes. realy fun listening to..... best one for me ist the 'england story' with some hiphop/dNb/dubstep/grime all london based..

too bad

according to my last post here comes the news:
my future landlord tells the he is not renting the preffered flat to me because "he does not rent to lawyers".
i never experienced discrimination myself but this one is werth a law suit! just to piss of this guy and to tell him, when you`re going to be against a lawyer..... never tell him directly!

big thougths

i'm the best prostitute money can buy..... i'm lawyer...

the big K

could somebody please explain why fruit mueslie from the BIG cereal company with the big k has more calories than choclate mueslie?

woohoo

lawyer v. gravenreuth has been found guilty for fraud!
he plaided not guilty for strange reasons:
chaos at his own office
and leck of knowledge of the laws

[sidenote: gravenreuth is infamous for his "rude" behaviour against internetusers for several reasons]

here's the beastie boys version:

summer!

want to know what summer in ny might sound like?
masters at work [kenny 'dope' gonzales and little luis vega] with india - WORK

can be bought at beatport, but remember to check the 2002 original not the 2007 mix, my advise...

did i mention?

beatport.com is the first [and only] download-portal for music that works for me. offers reliable quality 320kbs mp3 oder m4a [ipod that is], a slick and functional interface, speed and most important: all the tracks you might have been looking for.
and it offers a good price policy [around 1,49€/1,99€ per track]: 20% goes directly to the artist

in example:
-underground resistance [UR chicago] 'nights of the jaguar' [never been released on cd, i have my vinyl but wanted to support the artists for their great song]
-heartthrob's newbe 'are u gay'
-qualifde! 'badman'

harpune closed

the best club in d'town is now closed [as well as unique, ego and so on] can't wait for the re-opening [and i really feel sorry that they have to leave the harbour; the rest is just rubbish there]
for you to know what an evening in the club looked like:
good music, booming soundsystem, nice people



the first song is a heartthrob remix of newbe 'are u gay'
downloadable at beatport.com

and it's there

what my last saturday looked like:

Kölner Stadtachter

siebter der herzen!












cox mit vorbereitungen, rauchen; einteileranprobe








mannschaft vorher....









mannschaft nachher!









verladen nach dem rennen












olympiasieger beim schrubben

promenade

N.E.V.E.R.

never, never.... NEVER, absolutely never try fishsauce on its own!
you might need 2 liter of beverages to get rid of the taste.....
[i might try petroleum now, listerine?]

the beauty

[from left to right: simon fast, stephan nolden, ivan fast, sven "würmchen/cox" breidenbach, frank mager, wolf strauß, behind ansgar wessling; missing: bernhard spanke and me]

and the rest of the crew:











[you can also mix the titles of the pictures, as they were origianlly inteded]

no, it`s not

it's not the 90 minutes of rowing training but the 45 min per trip on the pushbike to the training that really gives you the rest!

summer 2007

no comparison to the world mastership summer 2006 [football] but some nice settings:

Not the best

training conditions:








broken oar from stadtacher training:











and our boat:

daft punk @ düsseldorf
