THUR 17 DEC: Snow waited long to arrive in late 2009, but finally appeared, as a December storm.
I and Schmidt wandered out in the nearby Utterslev Mose to explore the white landscapes and frozen lakes...
WED 16 DEC: The first snow fell in 2009, and I and Mikala wandered out into the night to see the flakes fall.
Before we left, I noticed a mysterious light in the sky, apparently emanating from somewhere in the neighborhood.
Heading home from the nearby park we finally discovered what it was: a spotlight aimed directly at the snow...
SUNDAY 27: Today I upgraded some graphic metallic galleries. I also added links to Wikipedia, in case you wanted to know more.
I was quite surprised myself, when I read about the history of Radium. Radium is extremely radioactive and highly toxic.
It was discovered in 1898, and in the beginning not much was known about this strange new element of nature.
However, it was regarded as a modern, mysterious and powerful substance - and therefore used as an additive in toothpaste,
hair creams, even in food and candy. Want some radioactive chocolate? Why not, you'll get a radiant health (and glow in the dark)...
Indeed, times have changed, but are we any wiser now? Here are lot's of examples: www.dissident-media.org/infonucleaire/radieux.html...
THURSDAY 22: Yesterday Schmidt reminded me that "X-Files" wasn't the only strange stories ever made for the screen. Earlier we also had "Twilight Zone".
Not necessarily sci fi or fantasy stuff, but rather weird and unexplained things that just couldn't happen, and yet...
That reminded me of a strange dream, a few years ago: Here and There...
THURSDAY 10: If cats don't look colourful enough to you, then dispair not. Now you have the option to colour your cat.
Here are some samples: halohalo.ph/?p=5676
SATURDAY 22: Today I was passing the local multihall, Nørrebrohallen, when I noticed a strange scene:
Red chairs parked in open space, positioned so audience were looking at a screen tuned to a dead channel.
Nearby people dressed in black were erecting a house, without roof, walls, windows or door. Of course,
I could suspect some rational explanation. But, as usual, I'd really prefer the surrealistic angle instead...
MONDAY 17: Translations that fail, usually makes you laugh instead. The results can be absurd, even surreel.
Like in this case of rude and unreasonable chickens.
I simply can't guess what they intended to say.
Much simpler to suspect a mixup of "b" and "p" in this one "Fragrant and hot crap".
You can find many more weird translations here: www.engrish.com. (Thanks to Tinne for mentioning it...)
FRIDAY 7: Each month a full moon appears, and this time I tried to get as close as possible:
How far away is the moon? If you were a photon: just 1 second...
SATURDAY 28: One of my friends invited me along to a nearby party. And thus I spent an evening with electronic music and esoteric decorations.
I had of course my camera ready, and caught a lot of whirling views, dancing light, fire in motion, photons jumping around.
Here's one of the sights, but you can see more here, as Light Show 8...
Here are two wideo clips if you want to see and hear: 1 and 2
TUESDAY 17: I found this strange question on this strange site: www.catsandcoffee.org.
If you suspect that your cat may be from another planet, you might be right. But of course it's not really that simple: read how cats from outer space differ from cats who've been abducted by aliens.
All the (coffee)beans are spilled here: www.catsandcoffee.org/misc/catsfromouterspace.html
MONDAY 9: Firefox is rising, and Explorer sinking. Or perhaps you haven't noticed yet..?
Mozilla now has 22 % of the global browser market, compared with IE's 67 %.
I found this ironic graphic on WOTs forum...
