Thank you George W. Bush!

Well, since everyone is giving the current president of the United States such a hard time, I think I personally have to step up and thank him for making one of my biggest dreams come true.

How you might ask?

There is also a little pre-story that I want to share, which dates back to the year 2001, to be precise, the 9th of September 2007. I was travelling around Australia at that time and visiting a friend of mine in Brisbane. We where sitting at the shores of a river watching the Goodwill Games and each one of us was smoking a big cigar. Both of us love to travel and we where mapping out trips that we would love to do in the years to come, up to about when both of us would turn 25. To my own surprise I managed to stick to all the plans I made back then. Which included Mexico, Cuba, New Zealand, South Africa and LatinAmerican. But silently, I added another goal, to visit all continents, including Antarctica before I would turn 30. Back then a ridiculous plan way beyond my financial resources. But the idea kept spinning in my head all the time.

Well, seven years later, and I just got the booking confirmation for my trip to Antarctica. The trip is still months ahead, but I would have never gotten this far without the weak US economy!

When George Bush was elected president of the United States (thanks to Florida…), the Dollar was at an All-time-high, and the trip I booked recently would have cost me a whopping 5.500 Euros.

Fast forward to 2008, the Trip is down to 2.350 Euro, less then half of what I could have paid if the Dollar would have sustained its strength. Since the day George Bush took office, the Dollar has gotten weaker, and by the time the citizens of the USA have elected their new leader, I will have returned from my trip to the frozen continent.

So in a wicked way, I do owe my trip to George Bush and the path the American economy has taken since he is in charge.

Back from London!

I just spent some really wonderfull days in London. No sightseeing, just friends. Wandering around the city and having a cup of tea every now and then, just perfect.

One of my favourit spots is the V & A Museum, it has a fantastic cafe with this amazing giant light bulbs. Very modern, but it fits perfect with the rest of the old fashined museum.

cyberexorcism.com SOLD!!!

Don’t worry, I am just kidding!

But who knows – this week I got five offers from people around the globe to buy my website. Apparently Google changed its policy towards link-selling and now buying “aged” websites is the new thing when it comes to SEO (Search engine optimization).

I can’t believe I bought the domain in 2002 and the website has already been around for more then five years.

But it has been way too much fun all this years to sell it for a few dollars (Maybe for a few dollars more…). Getting emails, seeing people search for the funniest things and ending up on my website is way better! Like “Gay Surfers in Puerto Escondido”, or “Chances of getting pregnant from cyber sex” and – the current user favourite: the education level of a certain blonde that I promised to never mention on this blog again.

So long – I am waiting for a better offer to buy my website– at least worth a cruise to the Antarctic (worth around 4000 US Dollar) – He He!

A new beginning

Hi folks!

If you have nothing to say, just change the style… I have been very quiet in the past few months and only added a couple of pictures here and there and some short stories. The truth is, I just don’t feel like writting at the moment!

So to keep things a little fresh around here, I decided to say “Good bye” to the old template and let a new one take over (the old one was full of bugs anyway).
