It’s absolutely dreadful, deep-freezing really, to try start re-writing a blog after an unannounced radio-silence-for-a-break of over a year. With some run-of-the-mill blog that would be just a matter of finding the hottest new thing that’s related to whatever electronic cat-scratchers you write about, and picking up on that like nothing ever happened. But with Finnish [...]

There are those days when you only have one thing in your mind from the beginning of it and yet you never get around to actually do it. Things that are inevitable just keep pouncing in front of you like a cougar in heat and you are totally screwed in regards to what you were [...]

It’s Thursday, not that long ago. Early morning for me, so it’s probably closer to noon out there. I think I am finally waking up. Slowly, but surely.  Left eyelid. Right eyelid. That’s it. Wide awake. Feels like it’s been a long night of research. I look around, searching for clues to my location. After [...]

Maturing is a theme that’s going on. I aged a year the other day. And the blog is reaching the first turning point. I have a sort of a creeping feeling of the fact that I should move on to phase two with it soon. Would like to keep things the way they are sometimes. But [...]

I had the perfect trifecta of nightmares the other night. First I had a horrible work-nightmare where I couldn’t understand one bit of the stuff I was supposed to do. Then there was a blog-nightmare in which they had hacked Finnish Beauty and turned it into an adult site about gay Moroccan soccer players. And [...]

This is actually a post that splintered from the Synchronicity one somewhere around halfway through writing it. I realized I was talking about two things and that I had a lot more to say about both of them than was practical for a single entry. So now there are two. It’s one of these days. [...]

It’s funny how these things go. This is post number 20 of this blog. I’m not sure if I ever planned it to go this far or if I was expecting it to die way before now. I have this urge to read Transmetropolitan again, to get back into the “angry columnist” mode and start [...]

This is a bit less a post with insight again. And bit more slice of life. And sort of touches on a “problem” I’ve had to deal with lately. It’s last Saturday. I’ve somehow survived the trip to listen to the gig of the friend of the friend of Kat‘s and I’m staring out the [...]

There are some drafts on my computer waiting to be finished and posted. Some more rough ideas in my notebook for posts. But frankly, they’re all trying to point out an Issue or tell about a Thing. They all feel like I’m trying to make a statement instead of just telling what’s up. So I’m [...]

I have a feeling these blog posts will have a tendency to turn into reports of what I did last night. Not that it’s a bad thing, but still it wasn’t exactly what I had in mind when I started this thing. But I guess I’ll be dropping some fundamental truths about Finland and the [...]
