Heritage from Candy Froggie

Candy asked me on her blog to answer this questionary, so here we go ;-)
Actually, the hardest part is finding the questions, not the answers, my opinion.

You have to follow the rules below. Add a new rule at the end and copy them all to your blog, along with your questions and answers.

RULES:
1) Make a link to the person who sent you this questionary, to keep the thread alive, aliiiive :)
2) Ask yourself 5 to 10 questions, questions that you will chose yourself
3) It's forbidden to copy a question already used in the questionary of the person who sent it to you. Be creative (good luck :P)
4) Create a new rule that will have to be followed by all the new participants! Be very creative! (re-good luck!)
5) Ask at least 3 other blog writers to answer this questionary (trembling in your boots already, hm?)
6) Modification to rule #3: You can ask yourself any kind of questions you wanna, If they've already been asked and you wanna answer them, do as you want!!!:))
My new rule: Don't use the word "I" in your answers! uh-oh..

QUESTIONS:
a) Warm-up question: What is the kind of chocolate you prefer?
My answer as a chocoholic should be: Any form, nebber mind, gimme gimme gimme!!!!! But then, there is always the right chocolate for the right moment: Black chocolate with the coffee (76% is just fine with coffee, no more, no less!), white chocolate with whole nuts or almonds for these "emergency, sugar-level has fallen below critical index" moments, Mars and Snickers are just perfect for long rides by car (gulped down with energy drinks and X-tra caffein Coke, juste to keep you going). What I [BEEP! Did I say "I"!?] don't like too much is filled chocolate (except after-eight).

b) What could one say if he/she wanted you to hate him/her immediately?
...actually it is really rare for me to get mad with someone quickly. It is more something in some people's general attitude that make me dislike them, but it is hard to find a phrase. No need for him to talk to know an asshole when you see one, right?

c) Last book you read, film you saw, song you heard.
"Soulforge", by Margaret Weis (a Dragonlance book)
"Coupling", an english comedy (not actually a movie, but well)
Audioslave, but no idea what title

d) Tell us a joke.
Jokes are not my strong side, they simply cannot stay in my memory. Let's have a try.
A geek one, from a programmer's t-shirt:
$> rm -f /work
$> cd /pub
$> more beer

A scientific one:
BLACK HOLES SUCK
[giving it up]

e) Is Schrödinger's cat really dead?
You will have to open the box to find out :)

I pass this questionary on to:
Jack, Fennelin, Esox (har har, time to get a blog, zou!)

Outing

Lola and I are fans of Fort Boyard, an adventure game show in a former military fort off the south breton coast. I just enjoy it as a mindless thing to watch on the telly during dinner, but Lola is quite fascinated and comments everything. "Has he fallen?" "She has hurt herself? Will she cry?" and so on.
Her favourite thing is this: when failing some task, people are put into prison cells and have to be liberated by their teamsters. "They are freeing the girl?" she asks hopefully, and she really likes when the escaping prisoners have to crawl though tunnels full of big rats, spiders and snakes: "She is afraid of the mice?" I like those moments too, I have to admit, and when they have to put their heads in cages full of flies, worms, scorpions and the like.
Now, in the age of so many reality shows is the right moment to stand up and proudly say: "I am a fan of Fort Boyard". We mustn't fear the public opinion any longer ("how stupid, watching people struggling to gather keys and to free their team mates..."), for now we can almost always say, "ok, but then, YOU are watching " *** " (replace this by whatever stupid reality show is running in your country)!"
Vive le Père Foras !!!

Rapping Gorillaz et le 'tit frère qui fait boing-boing

Là j'écoute le nouvel album des Gorillaz (qui m'étonne quand même un peu, genre mélange de rap, de Air et de chais-pô-quoi, un peu rétro), arrivé en express via bittorent (mais bien sûûûr je l'ai acheté d'abord) chouette chouette chouette ! Quand un collègue m'en a parlé il l'a prononcé avec l'accent d'un français qui a appris l'anglais en Australie et j'ai compris "beat to rent", et j'ai cherché une éternité sur google 8-S

Dans le ventre de ma Candy amour de ma vie il y a le petit ******** qui bouge comme un petit diablotin. Et oui, on a enfin trouvé un nom, et non, on ne va pas le dire ! De toute manière, Lola l'appele toujour "petit freuhre" (frère) et les rares fois qu'elle l'appele par son nom on a l'impression elle a roté ou elle a fait un autre bruit bizarre et personne ne pense que c'était le nom du "bébé dans le ventre de maman". Le soir elle parle dans le nombril, histoire qu'il entends bien "bonne nuit, petit frère, dors bien !"

Et c'est exactement ce que je vais faire aussi maintenant, bonne nuit tout le monde.


oups, that was not exactly in english. Promise to do better next time...

the stakes are down

After several remarks of the kind "I have a look from time to time on your blog, but there hasn't been a single post since christmas" (they don't even refer to a precise year...) I have decided to put up a new blog.
One without a complicated design.
One without a theme. Warning: there might still be posts about working on out house! :-P

Well, here it is, tadaaaa! [opening a can of beer to celebrate the event]
