On a weekly basis during days where work is scarce and I’ve time in abundance, I usually surf around on topics that I normally don’t read much of. I’m very fascinated by things unknown to us, having read all UFO material I could dig up when I was 12-14 years old (including J. Allen Hynek’s […]

Carl Grimberg and the History of Mankind
.. is the 22 volume historical work I’m digging into at the moment. How far have I come? Uhm. 2 of 22. I’ve "finished" with the Egyptians, the Babylonians and the Assyrians, but I’m still in Little Asia and man have I learned new stuff! Of course we must not let ourselves be drawn completely […]
Linkses of ze days
Updated the b2 Cafelog Resource Center with a few archived posts to enable the hacked ones for viewing. My brother has got a new design up and running, veeeery nice. My haphazard, American, poker-player-author friend, Pauly is up to his usual thing. Maddox apparently hates Jennifer Lopez. The author of Blogjam just made a Scotch […]
Scariest picture of the day: old people in the woods
Old people you meet in the woods, can be very scary, and often dangerous. You shouldn’t feed them. And if they start talking about world wars, just nod and say ‘yes’ at the end of every sentence. This guy’s name is Sigge, by the way.
With a cup of steaming blackcurrant tea (Twinings)
..I’d like to apologise to my readers about my late absence of proper updates. It has been a long time since my last proper update, really, since I’ve had so much to do. Not too much, but by the end of a fast-paced week, it’s hard to figure out what kind of shit people think […]
Back from Sudan, but thanks for all the fish anyway
I just wanted ya’ll to know that I’m back in one piece, and ready to get on with whatever I was doing. Uhm, setting up my new furniture, fighting my cold and listening to Lou Reed.. and more work. What was it like? Darfur is in crisis and absolute need for help, and let’s just […]
A quick greeting from Nyala (Darfur)
Hello world! Have you ever used the expression "in the middle of nowhere"? If you have, please stop using it until you really know what’s it about. I saw it today. It’s called a ‘desert’. And I actually saw people living there too! Incredible. And you might ask: So where the hell is Sigg3 right […]
Hiatus
… apparently I’m going to Sudan. Tomorrow. Don’t ask. You can send me e-mail, but I probably won’t reply. If I never return, please accept my sincere greeting; So long and thanks for all the fish!
Link of the day: Food Force
As some of you may be aware of, I’m a consultant at the Fafo Institute of Applied International Studies. I’m going to stay until July the 1st at least. So I get tangled up in world-business, conflicts and social research all over the place. Hence the link of the day. Link of the day: www.Food-Force.com […]
Hitch-hiker's Guide to the Galaxy
In memory of Douglas Adams (1952-2001) I’ve been reading the Ultimate Hitch-hiker’s Guide to the Galaxy this last week, which contains all the (final versions of the) books in this generally genius series. I have not slept. I have eaten, true, and even allowed myself to go to the bathroom, but that’s about it. Here […]
