Gay Pride

Two things happened last week: I bought the incredible Dwarf Mine and went to see the Cristopher Street Day parade in Hamburg. Both was/is a lot of fun and this vignette was just inevitable.

The basics of survival

After years of nuclear winter, a simple plant is worth a fortune.
This vignette is my entry for the Picking up the Pieces Contest on flickr, where I just opened an account. See the gallery and read more about post-apocalyptic gardening. You can also spot my blockbird and his new profession there.

Wednesday night in Germany

Although they played worse, in the very last minute of the semi-final the german soccer team kicked Turkey out of the european championship tournament. Nevertheless both german and turkish fans partied together through the night without any mockery, agression or even a nasty look. A truly amazing sight.
