Let's Make Fools of Ourselves ;)

Self-Portrait ca 1987

It is true courage to make a fool of oneself ;) and here is the quest:
"For if this book is a joke it is a joke against me. I am the man who with the utmost daring discovered what had been discovered before. If there is an element of farce in what follows, the farce is at my own expense; for this book explains how I fancied I was the first to set foot in Brighton and then found I was the last. It recounts my elephantine adventures in pursuit of the obvious. No one can think my case more ludicrous than I think it myself; no reader can accuse me here of trying to make a fool of him: I am the fool of this story, and no rebel shall hurl me from my throne." - G K Chesterton, Orthodoxy

April Fool 2010

Me, translating at my brother-in-law's wedding for his beautiful Mexican bride, though wishing to be a thousand miles away, this very moment. It's quite cold, though sunny and I love to get pissed on the sparkling wine. On our way to a restaurant for lunch and to have a small celebration, hearing and vocally accompanying Mumford&Son's The Cave on the radio, feeling absolutely hilarious. Having some conversation and some more red wine at the restaurant, inbetween by chance meeting a former schoolmate who is now living several hundred kilometres away, when suddenly Shakespeare's Sonnets get mentioned by my newly wed sister-in-law, which blows my mind completely. After the return home, still slightly pissed, getting on my bike to the chemist's, there reciting "To be or not to be", getting back into our garden and still feeling absolutely hilarious and not caring a f**k, sending some quite daring email :-).
