Violent snowmen

Thursday, December 24th, 2009

Due to the global warming we’ve had snow all week in Holland. Massive traffic jams, busses not driving, trains not running… yeee for global warming. I can’t wait until it finally kicks in. Until that time I can enjoy the beautiful snowy landscapes and ice sculptures. I always liked the Calvin cartoons in which Calvin creates violent snowmen scenes. Here’s an example:

I’m not the only one who likes this, here are some reallife violent snowmen:

Even more bloody snowmen here

In der Weihnachtsbäckerei

Thursday, December 20th, 2007

Okay, I really can’t help this. I’m sorry. It’s just that, to me, it’s not Christmas when I didn’t get to hear the following German Christmas song. It’s really an evergreen in Germany. Every year Rolf Zuckowski performs this song on German television. I really think Rolf Zuckowski can make a living out of this song just as Alice Cooper can with his summer classic “school’s out”. Anyway. If you don’t like this song don’t worry, it’s not you, it’s me. I know it is cheesy, the children are irritating and all… still I need to hear this every year. Just to resynchronize my internal clock.

PacMan XMAS tree in Madrid

Thursday, December 20th, 2007

Now this gets me all excited. I’m a big PacMan fan. The best game ever. Well, I like Ms. PacMan better. Anyway, this has to be the ultimate Christmas decoration as far as I’m concerned. Wish I had this baby right here in my front yard. Oh no, if I could have one wish, make that an original PacMan cabinet right here in my livingroom…. ah anyway. Enjoy the video.
