Get Offline Gmail outside the US and UK
In an urge to get my hands on Gmail Labs' most recent experimental functionality and due to the fact that the Google decided to roll it out exclusively in the US and the UK (I don't even care why this time), I had to come up with a way to dupe the system.
It is really …
Spammers welcome!
Don't know about you but I never use my real email address. I circulate my three, four scam addresses.
See what I received from a "legitimate" online dating platform. They're certified and everything:
Apparently, I used the spam address in conjunction with pretending …
Do you or do you not know about the bird?
Watching the new Family Guy season, again (yes, we're counting no. 7 right now), it makes me wonder: how crazy, amateurish, bizarre and scrumptious can it get?
I will give you just two tokens that Mr. McFarlane has something up his sleeve:
//First.

Steinbock liefert sich wilde Verfolgungsjagd mit Polizei [German]
Ich war am Wochenende wieder gut unterwegs.
Ist ja bekannt, dass sich wilde Tiere nicht gern domestizieren lassen. Ich bin da keine Ausnahme.
Im folgenden ein Auszug aus der Presse:

The Christian Internet Will Get You!
Recently, I have been spammed by Christian fanatics. Spreading the word of God and all that crap. They tried and actually did bypass the spam filter by chumming up with me by sending my pictures of the Pope at some mass in Washington and even more of a Mount, a …

New Found (Experimental) Glory
Browsing through my new favorite social network Virb I stumbled upon a French band from the United States Of Paris (as their MySpace site declares), This Is Pop.
This (quite long) video We're Going Nowhere from This Is Fake DIY Records on Vimeo.
Check out their Virb …

Who Are You People And Where Is My Horse?
According to George Carlin's definition of old people (aka. himself), John McCain obviously is an Old Fuck. Or an Old Man? Maybe ask Georgie!
Carlin turned seventy last year. Unlike an old man which is a point of view, a way looking at things -- and some people are old …

WordPress 2.5.1 installed
Today, I updated my WordPress installation to version 2.5.1 and I gotta say: It was a breeze!
At first, not all plugins worked the way they were supposed to but with a little tweaking and twitching everything is back to normal. Especially my painfully customized …

Help Of Mari [Pics]
One of the last things I did in Mumbai was visiting an orphanage for HIV/AIDS-infected children in the outskirts. In India, those children are treated a family disgrace and completely excluded form social life. The sisters of the order The Helpers of Mary - with the …
Rajasthan Journey [Gallery]
Still waiting to get back the analog photos I took during my Rajasthan travel - it's been 85 days that I returned (yeah, I am a lazy bum) - I ftp'd the ones I took with my iPhone. They're surprisingly good.

In short, I flew in to Jaipur, the …
Goodbye & Farewell
This is the end. Suiting my character I will end the Helmet in India section by intertwining something funny with something devastating, some might say tragic. Train rides: one of my favorite topics.
The Bombay metro system is a known hazard to commuters. Since nothing …
Highlight Of The Day - The Boredom Chronicles
At the moment, I am waiting for my next job to start. Until then I just sit here and do nothing. No, I really mean it. There's nothing to do here. I am stuck in the middle of nowhere with a crappy infrastructure and barely anyone to meet.
I fixed a few things around the …

#4 - Long nights
As my days tend to start around noon it's just halftime now. So yes, I am one of those people whose days begin when they wake up; respectively end when they go to sleep. It's still today and not tomorrow even after midnight. I am yet undecided if I wanna give the …
#3 - Pakistani-Indian Relations
Big day, today! Not only did I discover (again) that Jim Carrey can really act - I watched The Number 23 which was quite entertaining - I also scheduled my late activities so that I could watch East Is East a dramaesk comedy about a Pakistani/English family whose …
#2 - Waste the day with tuna
Did I mention that my fallback spot is far away from the city? In fact, it is far away from all cities which sometimes feels like I left mankind behind. Not that I feel overly dramatic today. Most of the weekend's distress I left behind maltreating my punching bag and …
#5 - My private games convention
It has been rather quiet over the past week or so. The reason is quite simple: I was visiting two friends and dived into a broad palette of games: WoW, CS v1.3 (of course), Hellgate London, Call Of Duty 4 and PokerStars (well, that was just for me but anyway). …
