Sun-dried Danes

I can see that this years production of sun-dried Danes has started. And it looks like they will be marinaded in beer.

Same old, same old.

Is it just me or does he look like Viggo Mortensen in the Prophecy?

The very, very cool lamp that we were given as a birthday present. ^.^

As you can see, there are no wires connecting the body of the lamp to the light-bulb itself.

Today, I made T with coffee. (Say it out loud, thank you)
In other news: Four hours of sleep may not be enough.

Iron Sky

We watched Iron Sky last night.

Such a great movie. I especially enjoyed the zeppelin-shaped carriers and the extreme clunkiness of the Götterdämmerung. Dieselpunk for the win. ^.^
And so many great uniforms. 

And the invading nazi-UFOs are called Walkyr. *grins*

I’m impressed how they managed to take a concept like Nazis from the Moon, just run with it and then create a movie like this. And I’m equally impressed with the fact that they got away with some of the content. They had a go at Sarah Palin as president, Americans, North Korea (“Our great leader designed and built these UFOs himself” said by the North Korean UN representative), Apple and far, far more than just those.

So if you get a chance to do so, go watch it!

And now I shall go and admire my Iron Sky war bond, while I wait for the DVD to come out.

Iron Sky - Iron Shirt

As preparation for Iron Sky tonight, I shall iron my shirt.

And - well - wear a RAF uniform.

Sewing Fact

Sewing a 150cm zipper into something is actually 5 times as boring as sewing in a 30cm zipper.

Who knew……

Voice-to-text

I just tried out the voice-to-text feature on my phone. According to that, my nose is bisexual.

I was quite surprised, as it had never told me this.
