Dead goldfish day

Down he drain went:

• the heating in our favourite art nouveau swimming pool -- seems that Munich is too broke to heat the water properly. That's our contribution to the world economic crisis. Dear Barack Obama -- please make it go away!
• my nose -- it is leaking! It has no business to do so. It's bona fide spring now.
• the card reader at the office building around the corner. Perhaps it works for the consulting roaches, but the poor charwoman who tried in vain to get in, couldn't. She looked very scruffy, and I felt sorry for her.

At least there is no conficker on my computer. I checked.
