i am history.

Monday, May 23rd, 2005

have you ever seen discovery history’s commercial? “ich bin geschichte” – i feel so insignificant sometimes because i swore to myself i would change the world and what did i make of it yet? sometimes it feels i can’t even change myself.
Wer wird in tausend Jahren
unsere Zweifel noch verstehen ?
Ihr von morgen
werdet neue Wege gehen! [...]

monday mornings…

How happy is the blameless vestal’s lot!
The world forgetting, by the world forgot.
Eternal sunshine of the spotless mind!
Each pray’r accepted, and each wish resign’d
I believe.

i transferred mindwork.net to a new hosting provider – the old one went down every once in a while, email was never spooled through and and and. everything should be working fine again – if you notice an error anywhere, please let me know at stefan (dot) jaeger (at) mindwork (dot) net. thanks!

mut.

Wednesday, May 11th, 2005

i was just watching about the fall and rise of austria in the last century. and yes – even if we as a nation failed in 1938, i think that at least the majority learned its lesson. after ten years of occupation we guaranteed our eternal neutrality – and in 1956 during the hungary crisis, [...]

tiny little babies…

Monday, May 9th, 2005

now that everyone around me seems to get babies one of the quotes I’ve just always loved:
A baby is a God’s opinion that life should go on. (Carl Sandburg)

sprechen sie deutsch?

Sunday, May 8th, 2005

just one simple thing i have been thinking about for eternities: mindwork has always been in english, at least since i started writing regularly in 2001. i was really starting to think about switching to german, at least for my own posts (of course the rest of you is welcome to keep posting in english) [...]

die einzige hoffnung.

Sunday, May 8th, 2005

it’s making me angry and sad at the same time. while most of us are celebrating the 60th anniversary of the end of world war II, nazi-germany and the liberation of its concentration camps some are unable to open their eyes – the result: 3000 neo-nazis meet in berlin to protest against the “lies about [...]

okay so i am a machead – i had to gettiger (a.k.a macosx 10.4) already last weekend. upgrade from panther (a.k.a macosx 10.3.9) went flawless, though i should have gone for a clean install. spotlight works nicely, though i liked quicksilver’s way of being able to choose the first found iteam with a simple hit [...]

any more beautiful?

Wednesday, May 4th, 2005

“Everything is determined,” Einstein once declared, “by forces over which we have no control. It is determined for the insect as well as the star. Human beings, vegetables, or cosmic dust – we all dance to a mysterious tune, intoned in the distance by an invisible piper.” Can you describe life in any more beautiful [...]

principle of joy.

Monday, May 2nd, 2005

so even car makers can be right every now and then – really though it’s going to take quite a while before i can afford any bmw i still like their “principle of joy” commercial. it’s not that bad. really. and what’s wrong about enjoying some things?
The world is one
and it’s starting to happen
you can [...]
