I'll be a hundred and ten in the not too distant future, the old ship's got a few blotches, but she's still on course!

iPad



I'm very happy with my iPod touch, which enables me to connect to the www from my couch!
So.
Apple has launched a big sister of the iPod touch, it's called iPad. Everything seems to be a bit larger, pictures can be viewed better, too.
I think the iPad would make me just as happy as my iPod touch does.
Thank you very much, Steve, for providing this new gadget.
Although it's not the first table on earth.

Photo - Graph - y

SenorBeep It fascinates me that there should at least be two ways to realize "photo-graph-y"....what if digital had come first??? No silver ever???! 2 minutes ago
SenorBeep What about digital photography ??? What's the relationship here? The camera? The recording chip???? 5 minutes ago
SenorBeep Tinkering with darkroom, chemistry, drums, instruments of the silver photography creates a special relationship with that medium. 6 minutes ago.

A manual for Life

This is what should be done in school: going step by step through the Manual of Life. But school isn't essential at all times for accomplishing this task - it could also be done self-studying, saving a lot of energy for transport.
The Bible is a good manual for a start. And it has served the purpose well during ancient times. Modern times are different though, that's why a more contemporary manual has become necessary, referring to our modern style of life and, above all, the discoveries made by science.
The manual should take into consideration our position in our precious habitat, planet earth. A sturdy cosmic body, yet with a vulnerable environment to serve us humans as a comfortable abode.

Blondes

Two women, Alicia and Jane, were walking along the beach, taking a bath in the warm waves of the sea, and basking in the soft sands of the nearby dunes.
They both had wonderful figures and were beautifully tanned. 
After a while Alicia could hold back no longer and she turned to Jane and asked her, "Jane, how comes the area around your navel has blue and red bruises all around it?"
"Oh, didn't I tell you my new boyfriend was blonde?"  

Not only women are blonde.

DAX

I do like the DAX (DOW JONES) graph these days: it's creeping up permanently, not steeply, like an ice skater trying out the quality of the new freeze-up.

Where else can comparisons be used so effectively than in the stock business.

Counting the decades

40
50
60
.. (will be filled in at a later time)

I'm not counting the decades, not celebrating either. As long as my systems function properly I'm not having myself troubled by living according to the figures.
I really do feel like 20 and to get the best benefit out of this, for me, a calendar only exists for business.
Ah yes, and to log all the happy hours Im spending here on earth.
