back online...

Good morning?!

After a shower and a veeery long breakfast... now I'm sitting in front of my screen thinking about a clever post in my blog...

Yesterday i went to the movies. I watched "V for Vendetta", a good movie and great graphic novel-adaption. The story is more of topical interest than most people think... that's at least what i think. Don't get me wrong... we live in a free country and I'm quite happy and confident about it... but when I look around what governments do to "protect" us from terrorism i could puke. Restricting our liberties won't protect us. Filming every public square won't protect us. Biometric Indentification ... again... won't protect us! If... and i repeat IF any terrorist in the world would want to bomb a building... i think he/she could manage it and we could do nothing about it. I think it will just happen and we will have to live with it.
I can understand everyone who lost a relative, friend or loved one in a terrorist attack, i can comprehend their anger, hatred or despair but restricting our own individuality is just the wrong way to solve "the problem".
Quite the converse. We should celebrate our culture, our lives and our individuality. Although many people may doubt the virtues of our society, I'm more than convinced that it is still the best way! No question, we have to work on a lot of edges, but aren't we doing well?!
Mmmh... that's such a big subject... and i just started...

What I wanted to say in the first place: With all the "protection" we have to take a special care on our votes. We have to decide who we want to govern our country and have access to all the data and surveillance we already have today. Just think about somebody like Hitler... what would he do with the "tools" of today?
That's what I'm scared about...

How did I get there? Mmmh... The movie just let me think about it... and everyone should think about it too.

So long...

Greetings

Another Song...

Some of you might think this is a strange song... but i like it pretty much... as much as the whole first Album "Felt Mountain" by Goldfrapp. But this song is kinda special to me. When I hear that song I'm able to totally relax. I build myself a picture. Imagine yourself in a car, standing in the sunroof, spread you arms, close your eyes, and maybe the car is driving 200 km/h or just 20 km/h on an american route 66, just the desert and a sundawn. It doesn't matter... you're just free. I like this kind of picture... although it might all sound a bit weird...I know that :) but it's just a picture in my mind... probably I will never make such thing...
and... yes... as i wrote it it reminded of a scene in a famous movie about a ship too. :D Only the music would be better :)

Goldfrapp - Utopia

Sorry for the bad quality... the real sound of the song is much more extensive...but anyway...
Listen to it...enjoy it

Is it working?

So... thanks to Castpost I'm now able to share some of my favourite music with you. I hope you like it?!

On the right, in my sidebar, will be my personal song of the week/month/year... how the **** should I know!? :)

And in my posts, there will be the same songs again... so you can listen to them whenever you want.

Let's pray for it working! :)

Turin Brakes - Stone Thrown

Here's one of my personal favourites. A wonderful song and I think everyone of us has once felt like a "stone thrown" ...

The Golden 20's

Hello my fellow readers :)

Last Saturday I was invited to a 20's-Party. Everybody was supposed to be dressed like back in the golden 1920's. It was huge fun. Unfortunately I forgot to take my camera with me. It's a shame! But thanks to Jazz (some of you might know her famous blog ;) ) I will get some pictures! But not without having to listen to her complaining about me because I was not dancing :) First of all... I' not a great dancer except I'm alone in my room and my music is quite loud so I'm really scared to death if someones suddenly standing on my doorstep grinning from ear to ear...
Secondly as i possibly mentioned before, I'm a bit shy. Though I will not dance in public if the song isn't absolutely right in the right moment. It's not like I would have never danced before. I did it...rarely... but I did it. And I enjoyed it but even though I cannot do it if it's not the right mood. Maybe anyone is able to understand me... but I tried to make my point. :)

Mmmh... I'm already late meeting my cousin... I should go now...
... Later folks :)
