Technically I’ve done this, I even went without a wallet and nearly forgot my passport. Then again, I live in Denmark, so driving south for a couple of hours lands me in Germany. Technically an international journey, but not what you meant I think 😀

In danish at least it is “Kirke”, so missing the -e, but nearly yes. I think it very much can be understood to have the meaning of Church. In german there’s Kirche, so again close.

I’m going to be honest that your “infatuation”, as it were, with all women seems fairly extreme to me. I do look at all people as they go by, and might think to myself “damn, she was cute”, but for me that’s about it. I might steal an extra look, but only rarely.

As you say yourself, you think they notice and I think you’re right. You also mention that you don’t like it but just “let yourself get away with it”. Maybe it’s worth trying to not let yourself get away with it? Make a conscious effort to stop? Self improvement is possible and even quite rewarding at times! And self control doesn’t come naturally to the rest of us either. I wouldn’t think this kind of behaviour is particularly healthy for you, but that’s just my two cents. Best of luck!

Sweet!

On their website (energydome.com) they claim “75%+” round trip efficiency, so not a bad guess!

Back in the early 2000s the people responsible for maintaining the national forests of Denmark, wrote to the navy that the oaks planted after the British destroyed the danish navy during the napoleonic wars, were now ready for shipbuilding!

I always thought it was quite amazing that the knowledge that these trees were set aside to rebuild the navy survived in the institution for some 200 years.

For me, I think it has to be Pulp Fiction. I just recently rewatched it for the umpteenth time and it’s just as great as ever. I find myself quoting it quite often.

A bit of an outsider which is a big hit in my family is “A Good Year” by Ridley Scott, staring Russel Crowe. It’s a nice fun movie and for a family of francophiles like mine it’s a great way of getting a bit of the France we love in the middle of the dark Northern European winter.

I had an Nokia, my last “featurephone” before I got my first smartphone, which actually had an FM tuner built-in. It used the headphone wire as an antenna as far as I recall. Quite neat, not that I ever really used it, but it was perfectly serviceable. And a great way of having music on the go in the days before streaming music was widely available.

They actually aren’t in Russia but either Georgia or Azerbaijan I don’t quite remember which for that specific scene. But I believe Georgia.

Although that might change in future I suppose. At least Russia seems to want that… sigh

Når lige jeg er færdig med at rydde op efter morgenmaden tager jeg ud og stemmer.

Jeg brugte i går aftes efter landskampen på kandidattest og læse lidt om kandidaterne. Jeg synes især det er godt når kandidattestene tillader kandidaterne at skrive en lille forklaring til hvorfor de har svaret som de har. Jeg synes faktisk det giver rigtigt meget at læse forklaringerne igennem, nogle gange finder man en som man er mere “enig” med ift. svarene, men hvis forklaringer ikke giver mening og vice versa.

Jeg synes det er lidt øv at Chatkontrol 2.0 ikke rigtigt er blevet spurgt ind til. Jeg tror det bliver SF igen, de har svaret på hvad de mener om det her: https://chatkontrol.github.io Jeg er ikke 100% tryg ved svaret, de snakker også generelt meget om at “beskytte børnene” i deres kommunikation, men jeg tror jeg vælger at tage risikoen. Jeg regner med at skrive til den/de kandidater der bliver valgt ind for SF efter valget og gøre det klart hvad jeg mener om at masseovervåge os alle. Jeg er glad ved deres grønne ambitioner, og stor fan af at de vil kæmpe for at forbedre togtrafikken i Europa!

Not only is it generally harmless when eaten, it is in fact allowed to be added to food in up to 5% concentrations in Europe, 2% in the US. The FDA lists it as “Generally Recognised as Safe”. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Silica_gel#Uses

I suspect that the whole “Do Not Eat” is partly because the Silica Gel in the little bags is not made to food safe standards, but that’s just speculation on my part

I don’t know if you really don’t get the reference, but if you don’t (or other people who come by this comic don’t), for once I got the reference! (Insert captain America meme here… :D)

I believe this is referring to Attila the Hun, the famous warlord/conqueror.

Smelly cat, smelly cat, what are they feeding you!?

(I can’t be the only one who immediately thought of that classic song)

Dette kommentarspor tilhører nu Kongeriget Danmark! 😀

And in Denmark it’s Holger

For some reason, my brain insisted on reading the title as if there was a comma between “abandoned” and “as”. I was like, has this man been abandoned by the baby which had somehow lost and then found again it’s birth family. Very confusing for a while there 😀

Personally, I love visiting France, but won’t be visiting this summer due to the overcrowding that comes with the Olympics. I’m actually sort of yearning to revisit Paris but I guess I’ll have to wait until next year or perhaps winter. So I’m one of those visitors who’s (temporarily) dissuaded from going due to the event.

I will say that I think looking at it as an economic “thing” is fundamentally wrong. Hosting the olympics should be about offering the locals a chance to experience world class sports events and the civic pride that comes with putting your country on the map. If you only want to do it for economic benefits, then you really shouldn’t host it.

“Pointer”, ha!

Jeg “binge’ede” lige begge sæsoner af Reacher på Amazon sidste uge. Hvis man godt kan lide lidt action og lidt “retfærdighedsporno” så synes jeg helt klart den er hver at se!

Nu har jeg ikke læst bøgerne, så hvor tæt de fulgte kildemateriale kan jeg ikke sige så meget til. Jeg er dog enig i at anden sæson havde lidt flere huller i historien. Det eneste jeg tænkte med første sæson var hvordan en tilsyneladende kæmpe virksomhed flytter ind i en lille by og enten bliver ingen lokale ansat eller de skal finde nok i den lille by der er villige til at bidrage til svindel og holde det hemmeligt. Begge virker lidt underligt.

Men hvis man bare acceptere dem som lidt “hjernedød” action sjov hvor en stor gut går rundt og smadrer “onde kriminelle” synes jeg begge sæsoner er var fine.
