Here we know that ... will be green and bright
I swear this dissertation will be the death of me. While I write about how the ancient and not so wise Icelanders chopped down all our forests just for the heck of it this Bing Crosby Hawaii X-mas tune keeps ringing in my head Mele Kalikimaka and so forth. I'd better finish this dissertation before I go (coco) nuts. This is baaaaaad! Fortunately the folks in Japan share my Hawaiian Christmas Ukalele addiction as I discovered while surfing on www.amazon.jp. I'm not sure whether it's reassuring or not and don't ask me why I was surfing Japanese webs with Japanese letters and all either. The only answer is that yes I think this dissertation has caused some kind of brain overload and no I don't think there's another cure than finishing the friggin thang! I first have to overcome my fascination for dr. Phil, who's taking up an hour of my precious time every weekday between 17 and 18 hundred hours. I started watching him and thinking that these back-pocket Texas TV shrinks are utterly ridiculous and should just skeet-skat back to the ranch. Now I'm a born again dr. Philian and think the man's a genius. Need I say more? Mental health gone..Better plunge into the depths of a German beverage now...

Sesame Street has its own version of the guy now - Dr.Feel and he's just as brilliant. The bald and the brilliant.

Wow, I feel like I'm missing out on some quality US-style TV entertainment here!!
Ah, actually, that's a lie, as the TV stations here (yes, and even the one in Camiri, the wonderful Telecable del Sur) insist on showing all kinds of (North) American TV trash, and oftentimes not even dubbed - which is baaad as well, cause it's so much easier to listen to the sweet Yankee voices than to read the subtitles. Luckily, however, there are still 'Los Simpson', which you can enjoy in pure español...
Man, I think it would be best to throw the box out of the window, but not sure what my landlady would say to that...
I feel for you, B, but hang on in there, we all know you can do it!!
