After having written myself exhausted the past few days I will now rest for a while while I try to find some life in my fingertips. I hope to be back on the very last day of the year with a post about something. Meanwhile you can all explore the archive. I personally recommend the [...]

MoonieZ World Tour
Posted in Information, New Orleans, Personal stuff, The outside world on December 30, 2008 | Leave a Comment »
Actually it is not much to talk about. My modest travels around the world. Or rather the places I have been outside my native country aren’t many. So here’s a short list of travels made by me, MoonieZ, over the past 41 years.
Started out with holiday travels along with my parents while I was still [...]
Burn after reading
Posted in DVD, Movies on December 29, 2008 | Leave a Comment »
The movie I’ll be watching tonight is Burn after Reading, the new movie by the Coen brothers. I hope it will be good. It was not cheap to import it with the current exchange rate. However waiting for the Swedish dvd release is not an option.
Update: Yes, the movie was worth importing. But it was not [...]
Concerts I have attended

I have tried to remember the first musical concert I ever attended but I can’t seem to recall which one was the very first. What I do recall is that I went to see my brother perform while he was the drummer in a band and toured around Sweden and also appeared in some TV shows, some broadcast live and some taped [...]
What’s another year ?

The end is near. The end of another year, I would mostly forget. No, not mostly but some of it I would rather forget. The best things about this year were my job, my old friend, my new friends and my lost friend. Not as if lost was good, but that I found a friend I thought [...]
How it was

How was it to grow up so close to a Swedish Air Force airbase that you could almost step onto the runway from the front steps of our home at the time. Well not so close, but not so far either. How was it to hear the jets take off and land at all hours and [...]

Christmas !

Yeah, I know, it is getting old. This Christmas thing. It starts in early August and then it runs into next year and while it runs the speed picks up until all the world is spinning out of control.
How is your Christmas ? My Christmas is good. Not great, not bad, nothing special but good, [...]
The night before Christmas

and not a creature – or critter more likely – was awake. Oh no, that is not the way it was. Every creature great and small was wide awake. Playing guitar hero, storming the castle or trying to catch the last bus home from the mall after hunting down the last known Christmas present on [...]
Words

I could use a lot of fancy words to describe my experience tonight, or rather early Sunday morning, but I don’t see any words able to express exactly what I want to say. So I will be brief. Seeing some nice people tonight made me feel all warm and fuzzy and brought a smile to [...]
