Sitting, watching, drinking….suppressing a yawn. Sitting. Surrounded by people you’ve got nothing to tell….perhaps one exception amongst. Sitting watching listening…to the bass that you can feel. Thinking of all the other things you could do now. People playing with their mobiles….What are u up to?. A possibility amongst opportunities….
I am so bored. Doing somebody a favour yet again. Neglecting your own interests… imagining how people would look naked…. uahhhhh .. I am so bored

The forbidden in waking life
Taboos, prohibitions, and etiquette
Constructs, boundaries, limitations, and distance
All melt away as the world fades
Come close, for distance is illusory
Draw near, let timelessness prevail
Hold me, no one knows but us
Touch me, a reality perceived but not shared
Still, a man can dream.

I recently published a post here, called “My life as a tiger”. Since then I have received few e-mails from different people and a phone call from my friend, surprisingly all of them referring to skull trepanation. As it started to look rather like a heated debate, I decided to explain myself a little bit more on this topic. So here I scrambled together whatever I feel like or want to say about it. It’s relevant to me anyway, so why not put it here?
So, I want to make a hole in my skull. I had this dream for a long time, maybe for 5 years or so. It started probably from my early interest in anthropology. There were many references across different cultures to skull trepanation: mainly in Mesoamerica, but also in Pre-Christian Europe, India, Egypt. It is the oldest surgical procedure known to man, as some of the trepanned skulls dated back to 2500 BC. Which is weird, indeed. Why would people just about everywhere, where civilizations flourished, would want to make a hole in their heads?

I know, it’s been a month since it’s over… It’s just I couldn’t put myself together and finish this post.
This is how our rubbish bin looked like after Christmas.
I know, people really should donate their gifts to charity, rather than to a rubbish bin. But nobody bothers. 9 out of 10 Christmas gifts we get are crap (if you lucky enough to have 10 gifts :)).
This is my memory about X-mas.
I don’t actually remember a gift in the last years I was happy with. So this is an idea I came up with. Christmas gifts recycle center.
You come to the place and swap one rubbish gift for another… Keep it for a year in the basement and give it to a person who presented you with rubbish gift in the first place.
So if you get the next Christmas a rubbish present from me, blame yourself for it.
