Punning and 'original' shop names are very common in the UK, I've observed. Especially for hairdressers. Less and less 'Phil's Barber Shop', more and more 'The Cut Above' (to use the shop names from 'Blow Dry').

This is a very funny site that collects them. Note the violent purpleness of this one especially!

As for the thing on my icon? Here is a comprehensive article in German (say sorry!!) about the exhibition I went to on my way to Wiesbaden earlier this month, summing up neatly all I learned there until I stepped into the presence of the thing itself and instantly forgot all the scientific blah blah blah hoo hoo hoo...

Pimp the classics!

Bored? Not enough laughs recently? Watch this movie!

The very first Woody Allen movie ever, and a great inspiration forAndras during AU week in Morningstar Manor...

Woody Allen is being geeky and insecure, Peter Sellers is subversively absurd, Peter O'Toole and Romy Schneider are pretty and Ursula Andress is just plain whacky...

Everybody has mother-and-computer stories, right?

I'm just training mine to talk to me by email.
