and so it begins

The Filmfest in Munich officially started last night, but the first day of screenings for regular folk is here. The day is upon us. As much as I enjoy living here, I really miss independent film. This is the only week of the year one can catch work by obscure film makers. Not all of… Continue reading and so it begins

not a Berliner

Lately, there’s been plenty for me write about, and I just haven’t been doing it. The last several posts were photos that I certainly liked, but there wasn’t much text. The whole point of this blog is to show off my writing, so these filler posts without much content go against what I originally set… Continue reading not a Berliner

Sweet ass, eh?

This is Saint Winthir, but I’ve got no idea what he’s known for. The fact that he’s riding a donkey is why he’s got my attention. Sweet ass, eh?

toi toi

There’s a brand of portable toilets in Germany called toi toi, which I thought was odd. In French, ‘toi’ is the informal form of ‘you’, and I wondered if there was any connection. Not that ‘you you’ was a logical name for a portable toilet, but it was the only connection I had to ‘toi’.… Continue reading toi toi

There is an other distance in Germany

Can anyone explain this cartoon to me? There are several from the same illustrator pasted around my neighbourhood in Munich, and I simply don’t get this one. Any ideas?

out of a funk…onto a journey

There’s only one way to ease back into this ol’ Dachshund Blog, and it’s not to ease in at all. My intention is to slog in full speed. As quickly as one can slog, I suppose. Where have I been? What have I been doing? Well, the specifics are rather unexciting for the most part,… Continue reading out of a funk…onto a journey
