Oops!
Last entry on monday? That gave me a shock for a minute, because I thought it's already thursday. Phew.
Nothing much to tell you. My man Markus K. asked if I could put my pen to paper, but the company he works for decided that they won't spend any money for things that can be done by people they already pay. Pure logic, I wouldn't do it any other way. My PowerBook got a ton of new icons ever since we found out how to change them (big deal). OS X 10.3 is good. Yes, you do need to get it.
What's up in Hamburg? Why don't you try your luck here?

O Tempora, O Mores
As you can see here, you don't see anything at all. The iPod is gone. "Destroyed" the page states. What happened? Well, it got destroyed. At the same time, something else was destroyed: my last bit of sympathy for Bielefeld. Here's the story:
A couple of weeks ago I bought an iPod on eBay - I think I wrote about that. Money went out the day the auction was over, and then nothing happened for a week. I wrote an E-Mail to "Dr$Beam" and asked what was up with my new toy, and he replied he'd mail it the following day. Another four days later the package arrived, and since Franz B. had kept me waiting for so long without saying a word, he got a neutral feedback - I even put a "sorry" in there. A minute after I posted that, I had a negative feedback in my list, stating I would post negative statements without getting in contact first. (Question on the side: Why should I get in contact with someone I want to give a neutral feedback anyway, and who didn't care to get in contact with me in the first place?)
So, being that my payment was fast, there was no reason to put a negative feedback on my list. I couldn't care less about a negative feedback, nevertheless I told him what I thought of this. And BOOM! I had what I was searching for for years: A new E-Mail-Buddy. Now, I don't know what kind of dork is behind this, but he surely is a creative mind. I've never, ever in my life read so many insults. He wrote those for quite some time and stopped when it got boring. Good guy.
Then, I put my old iPod on eBay. A day later I had a mail from my "friend", asking if he could buy the iPod. I should end the auction. Homeboy didn't appear to be a strong reader the first time we got in contact, and he certainly has no remembrance whatsoever, so I told him that I had made a reminder for both of us not to make business with each other again. His response was something to the likes of "Wixkind", and that he must'd mistaken me for a "good customer".
To make a long story short: He's back. And in full effect. He hired a little chinese helper by the name of chingchang-chong (maybe it's just his second self, he seemed a little schizo all the way), who now bought all the stuff that was still available and threatens to post further negative feedbacks in my list if I don't send the stuff to Hong Kong (his address is some fantasy-style Blah, his English is worse than mine, and his E-Mail-Address is based in Germany. Hm.) As if I would care... I contacted eBay about him and took my items down, so he can't mess with those anymore. We'll see what happens. Freaks!
What does all this have to do with Bielefeld? Oh, that guy lives there. So does my mom, so it's not all bad and lost. But she's not from there, and Dr$Best is your stereotypical Bielefelder.
More on this to come...

Hmmm...
I need to write, right? Don't really know what to tell you though. Went to Muenster and Bielefeld on friday and saturday, met a ton of good folks there, and enjoyed my rental (BMW 530d - the new one) yesterday. I seriously hate the design of that car, but cruising Hamburg on a sunny day... There just is something to it. Too bad Jo had to sit in the office. Today the grey is back, and the police are very present and put up fences next to our Wal-Mart. There's a helicopter circling and a police car at every other corner. I think I'll take a walk later on to see what's up.
Don't forget about the iPod. More stuff to come.
