Apparently, an internet site called 123people.ch has made it its mission to gather pointless, confusingly garbled data about me for all to find and cherish as the first thing in sight when you google my name (uh-oh, so I just gave myself away...). Unfortunately, the lack of love with which the facts were assembled hints at computer involvement.... Apart from an assortment of photographs of random strangers who apparently, for some reason, come to the computer's mind when it thinks of my name (one thing they all have in common is that they all look French and kinda sleazy), there is quite a revealing "tag cloud", which I recommend to all of you who really want to start understanding me (it has this sort of "portal to my unconscious" flair, especially because I don't get it, either):

as you can see, you were right, all along... and all those years you kept on telling me that I should just listen to that part of me that wants to burst out... you were talking... of course... about Teilw!!!

Let's get this baby started again.

Yesterday, I was smoking a cigarillo in my bathtub with the lights out, treating* the room with Chopin from a stereo perched perilously close to the water...

In the bathtub, a little rhyme occurred to me:

In the darkness, there's a light:
a cigarette burning in the night...

and with that, welcome to the understated, hush-hush, yet nevertheless significant relaunch
of dead flies, orchestrated, heh heh, from my bathtub.


* The wonderful German word "beschallen", is, according to Leo, translated as "to treat with sound"
