Honey, i am home

Lost (TV series)

Nine months later, and the last season of Lost is here. I just watched the first episode of season 6 (although it was actually a double episode) and now it is a good time to say that I am more confused than ever before

The truth is, I missed Lost. I missed it a lot. But now, I feel a bit scared.

During the past 5 seasons, the producers introduced almost everything in the series: Time travel, ghosts, ancient civilizations, supreme beings, you name it. And most of times, it either made sense, or it was so amazing that you were about to accept everything

Countless hours have been spent on the Internet, on forums, on Lostpedia trying to define theories of what’s going on, how things will work, how is each story influencing the other story, all sorts of conspiracy theories, etc

According to Wikipedia, season 6 will be about multiple universes or multiple time lines. Although i am intrigued by the idea, I am kinda afraid that it will end up badly. And then I will have to cry and I cry really bad

This is how screwed we are

I attended a show by  Henry Rollins last week, and one of the jokes he made, got me thinking how screwed we are (we being Greeks). The joke that Rollins made was something like “you Swedes have such a weird language, that you can learn English while driving”. Although funny, I have to say that Swedish are pretty simply, especially when it comes to verbs. Let me illustrate with an example

Let’s take the favorite verb “to love” and try it’s present tense in English, Swedish and Greek

EnglishSwedishGreek
(i) love(jag) älskar(εγώ) αγαπάω / αγαπώ
(you) love(du) älskar(εσύ) αγαπάς
(he/she/it) loves(han/hon) älskar(αυτός/αυτή/αυτό) αγαπάει
(we) love(vi) älskar(εμείς) αγαπάμε
(you) love(ni) älskar(εσείς) αγαπάτε
(they) love(de) älskar(αυτοί) αγαπάνε / αγαπούν

If after this demo, someone wants to argue that Swedish and English are difficult, I m ready to present more examples!

Damn, i like this song…

As usual, I was killing time online listening to my favorite Greek radio station, Galaxy

Because of this, I was reminded of a song that I really really really like. It seems that everybody and their uncle have sung this song at some point in their career, but I doubt i could find a better performance than the one linked here

So, here goes, “Con te partiro“, from Andrea Bocelli and Sarah Brightman

PS: The part where Sarah starts singing in English is so amazingly amazing!

A hacker is born…

… every god damn fucking minute…

Seriously, some stuff are better than sex…

Where is my mind…

When new stuff fall under the category of “epic fail“, one has to return to more traditional values…

Therefore I predict that in the near future I will be watching again “Fight Club“, since, honestly, I can’t find any decent movie released in the past year

In the meantime… Where is my mind? (Amazing song by Pixies, and nice video-montage)

How not to love Sweden…

Since today I had the extreme pleasure to watch the Riverdance show live in Stockholm, I can only post something Riverdance related

And if that act does not bring tears in your eyes, there is definitely something wrong with you!

Good joke
