Did you ever wonder what your name would be if you’d play for the Brazilian Soccer Team? Well, here is the answer

My PSP arrived yesterday, just one word: ultranicegadgetotastic Already ripped some movies to watch them on my daily train-trip to Vienna and to kill some time. A very nice feature is the ability to play flash games on the PSP, which makes playing a zillion of those mostly nice programmed games possible

I’ve just read that J.K. Rowling is about letting 2 characters die in the final book of the Harry Potter sequel. For me it seems that she had to do that because of some special reason, although she said she wrote the ending 15 years ago, when nobody gave a fuck about the Wizard of Hogwarts and his friends. I think that ‘they’re all going to die’-finale is coming because of Harry, Hermione and Ron are going to hit puberty. Ron will suffer of huge spots all over his face and when Harry asks Hermione if she wants to see his ‘magic stick’, things wont be suitable for children anymore

This really is fun!

Very sad news arrived me today: Bruno the Brown Bear aka ‘JJ1′ has been shot today morning at 4:50. Although his reprieve should last until today, some hunter killed the bear which seemed ‘abnormal’ in Bavaria, Germany. So long Bruno, rest in peace We will miss you and how you tricked all those people that wanted your death instantly, and those special bear-searching dogs from Finland, which hadn’t any chance against your stealth-like hide and seek tactic! Hope you have it better now wherever you are!

Some ‘Mrs. Migret’ contacted me via eBay regarding my PlayStation2, asking me if it is possible that I send it to Nigeria, because her son lives there (inserted via copy & paste):

“Hello Seller how are you doing.

i am mrs migret from london. i in need bying this specia item as a present for my son in nigeria. send me the cost of shipping to nigeria. and the cost of item. i will been paying for this item via bank transfer. send me your bank data so that i can transfer the total money to youe account. thanks i wait to hear from you very soon.

Best Regard…Mrs Migret”

Regardless of what you might think about her command of English [and mine ], I wrote her the following statement as a reply:

“Hi Mrs. Migret!

Due to the fact that my Playstation2 has been sold in Europe I can’t guarantee you that it will work properly with the Nigerian TV and Electricity Standards. Nevertheless the shipping to Nigeria would cost about 30 Euros from Austria (without package insurance), and I’m not aware of the Nigerian way for packages from Europe through customs. This could also cost extra. I think it would be much easier to ship the package to London, of course I cannot assure you that my Playstation2 is compatible with the British TV & Electricity standards.

Regards, Christian Leo”.

That Mrs. Migret is - as I found out via eBay - from California, USA, and a short while after replying to her question, I received an email from eBay telling me that it is ‘unsafe’ to sell products outside the eBay marketspace and so on. Thanks eBay for that information - bad people everywhere

As far as I’m concerned that package will never reach Nigeria, because I already got some bids on the article, and I’m therefore not allowed to sell it to other people. And buying stuff via eBay and send it to Nigeria doesn’t pay off because of customs and shipping costs and package insurance and any other extra costs. So shipping would cost as much as the package’s content.

Sorry Mrs. Migret, how about buying stuff in Nigeria? I think that would be a lot more easier and cheaper
