Trees

Tuesday, September 25th, 2007 · suomeksi · italiano

Yes, I know, this is a weird entry. But, living in the middle of the nature (as anywhere you might live here in Finland), sometimets I happen to forget which tree is which, so I’ve decided to write down a table of the most common trees. Clicking on the Finnish name you can also see a picture of them! Isn’t that gorgeous?

Finnish Italian English
mänty pino pine tree
paju salice willow
koivu betulla birch
tammi quercia
rovere
oak
saarni frassino ash
leppä ontano alder
kuusi peccio spruce
lehtikuusi larice larch
pihta abete fir

Drunken list

Glass of wineDrunk à la Cinderella: You get back home without a shoe.

Drunk à la Sleeping Beauty: You pass out for a hundred years.

Drunk à la Little Mermaid: Your feet are stuck to each other and smell like herring.

Hangover à la Snow White: You wake up in the morning with seven men.

Hangover à la Little Red Riding Hood: You wake up in the same bed with your granma.

Broken discs

hard discSunday evening I was listening to a radio programme in Podcast with my laptop. At a certain point it froze. Nothing working. Hard shut down and straight to bed. The next day the horrible truth: starting the computer, black screen and just few lines:

Windows cannot be started: missing file
in C:\windows\system32

I got it straight away: the hard disc was gone.

Car key(s)

Tuesday, February 20th, 2007

keysIt just happened that the car door got locked and my only key remained stuck inside. Don't ask how it happened, I just feel angrily stupid :(

On a side note, my blog turned 3 yesterday. Fortunately crazy thoughts are still flowing.

Update (21.2.2007): Thanks to Janne's subborness, we managed to open the car, and without breaking anything!

Another dangerous language performance by the fanciful Florentine trio

Lessandra: [...] Heh, I'll hit yor tiny willy with a rod!
Daniele: Giuee, sieee!
Lessandra:
You're right
Maurizio:
Even because you have to find it first, before hitting it with a rod
Lessandra:
Exaclty, just for that you're right
Daniele:
tara, la tara gione, l'atara sconi, la tara gione
Maurizio: John Tarah?
