Since today I have my new mobile in work: The Nokia N73. It can work with word, excel and powerpoint files, with flash and pdf files, has a real-player, it can edit movies, pictures and sound, it has a 3,2 MPxel camera with good zeiss-lenses and a second camera for video-call on the other side, usb connection, stereo speakers, internet connectivity, mail, full organizer, you can watch TV, it has bluetooth and infrared, and the best of all: It even works as a mobile too! ;-)

Since yesterday my nose is closed and running very quickly and very wet. Head is down on 70 %. Waiting for healthy reboot.

Heavy thunderstorm. No net at all. Caliban cannot show his presence. Thanks for all birthhelpers.

Today I met my dentist and she built up one destructed tooth and eliminated a colony of caries. Now I can bite again.

I think after 3 years I have learned some cat-talk vocabularys in cat-language:
mow-waooo: Feed me!
meeeeeeoo: Give me goodies!
muooh: Clean my toilet!
mrrrhh: Fine, you're here!
muw: yes.
mh: no,
meehhh: let me out!

*cat staring at me* - "hungry?" - mh - "toilett?" - mh - "Wanna go out?" - muw - "let's go" - muw! *off we go*; funny.

On friday evening I was in Imst and saw the act: "Krach im Hause Gott" from Felix Mitterer. I liked it. It was in the old spinning mill theatre of Imst.

I was wondering if my cat ever sleeps, so I tried to take a foto when he did. But he didn't. Look at his ear:

On saturday was the last day of Rettis visit. First we slept long. Then I teached Klausi chess. And doing that I remembered that I was tought chess when I too was at the age of 5. We went shopping, took a swim and grilled a CUG meal. Ginger meat and oriental wedge and minced meat with spice. It was a very good finishing of this visit. Afterwards we played "Saboteur" and had much fun.

On friday we were at the knight days at Ehrenberg castle. That was a great visit and a journey past in time. I saw a lot of armed and armoured knights with swords an helmets and all the stuff. There was a tourney on horses, armed with the long sticks to throw out the other knight off the horse. There were show fights with swords and the highlight was the big battle of Ehrenberg with 200 armed soldiers. This is one of the biggest events of that kind. Including cannons! A big market, blacksmiths, grilled pigs and cattle, fire blower and funmakers. I got a sunburn and 700 MB of pictures.

On Tuesday Retti from Graz came with his family in the evening. We played Munchkin until 2 a.m. On Wednesday we made a journey to the bavarian castle Neuschwanstein. It looks very impressive from outside but there are only few rooms inside installed. The finishing was cancelled after Ludwigs death. But all in all it looks very good and those of you that have seen Tschitty Tschitty Bang Bang know the castle already.

Slept long again, edited some Sudokus for breakfast, played a Settlers of Catan card game with Franzi and won. Then we drove to Burghausen to Musik Meisinger where I bought a BOSS PSA 230 AC adaptor. After a final shower I started my home run. Found a route that is 18 km shorter then the usual. And I can drive 110 km/h anyway: Laufen - Teisendorf - Traunstein - Bergen - Grassau - Marquartstein - Kössen - Oberaudorf - Obsteig. Now I am back home again. Well.

Slept well and long while the heat raised outside. Played a Settlers of Catan card game with Franzi, went to the lake, swam a round. After dinner I was with my sister at her neighbours sound studio in his cellar. We had fun playing blues, pop songs, jazz and jamming together. I played the guitar, he played bass or piano and Mikey played the drums. He has the possibility and the fun to take a record and burn a CD if I want. The next time I will take my guitar equipment with me.

Woke up and recogniced 29 deg C. Slept on again. Woke up again and: 30 deg C. We decided to stay at home IN the house, playing Settlers of Catan or Sudoku. At 6 p.m. we went to the lake and enjoyed the temperature of 29 deg C at the lake near my sisters home. In the evening I drove a round with my nephews motorcyles and drank some beer with the neighbours. Well, fine and warm. For astronoms: Watched Venus and Jupiter and the milky way and the star signs Sagittarius and Scorpion. Also Eagle, Delphin and Ophiuchus (Schlangenträger).

After 3 hours driving at nearly 30 deg C I reached my sister on the shortest way ever: 285 km in 3 hours. Well that was a fine journey with some racing events in bavaria: Schleching - Traunstein and Traunstein - Laufen. Followed a Golf cabrio and didnŽt lose connection at a speed of 100 to 120 km/h on turny normal roads. For a Diesel Skoda Felicia Combi not so bad :-). Look at a road map and imagine. Besides: at that moments I didnŽt think about CO2; sorry.

For long years nothing happened, but this year I got hayfever in a heavy way. The farmers didn't bring in the gras yet, so it started to bloom. Bad for me and I was inactiv most of the day because of sneezing. Very bad!
