Stihl Timbersports

I could not believe it. There is such a competition called STIHL TIMBERSPORTS
link here in which a team of 4 men chop wood for fun.
It reminds me of this old movie. And what is puzzling for me is that they are genuinely having fun! Competing and wining tend to to that to people, isn't it?! :-))
Now, I wonder what is more thought-provoking: watching it on telly or going on site to cheer them up in person?

So, another year has gone by. For me personally it has been a good year. In general though, there are many who might say that it was not exactly so. I will not get into that, there are far better and competent people who can do it from more points of view I can think of right now. But I will try to sum up a few things I have learned this year. Well, not exactly learned THIS year, I knew them before, but this year was full of reminders in these following respects:

- No matter how much you might want something good to happen to a good person, that does not always turn out the way you want.

- When unhappy things happen to good people who have been waiting for something good for a while now, this can throw them off balance rather swiftly.

- Harm suffered cannot be undone by a good thing. But it can be alleviated.

- New love makes one's heart feel brand new and forget all the sorrow it has ever gone through and act as it has never been broken. New break-up, on the other hand, does not happen to that brand new sparkling heart from the beginning of a new love. No, break up accumulates in time and along with the previous break-ups, what the latest one does is to worsen the damage the heart was subjected to and make the owner plunge into new depths of sorrow.

- People often fall for the wrong kind of persons and surprisingly most of the times are unaware of this. (This is a truism but I find it surprising to see how often this happens to people from whom you expect better, really.)

- Life is absolutely spectacular when you share it with the one you love. I cannot get enough of it. This is again a truism and a most annoying one when you do not lead a boring happy life. I am not pompous to tell anyone "If you don't believe, go try it for yourself". I am truly wishing everyone the boredom of living a happy life. You'll instantly see that THIS was your life's true calling.

- Times flies by.

- Flu is being in limbo: you're not "ill" enough to call it a proper "illness" and despite its popularity people still consider you pathetic for not being able to "shake it off", still you feel like a beaten dog for an entire week and curse the modern medicine that failed to come up with a decent cure for such simple symptoms: sore throat, running nose, broken-bones feeling, mushy brains lurking behind one's eyes.

- Snow is not how it used to be like in my childhood. Children nowadays must be devastated that they cannot have one tiny little real hope for school to be called off because of snow.

The mushy brains behind my eyes are racked.
I must go run my nose in bed.

This page needs tinkering. Looks a bit... simple. I have to do something about it. Later.
