Back on track

Having being offline much longer than usual for more than two weeks, without my beloved and outdated Ipad1, made me realize I did not miss that much.
A rather personal understanding of stuff happened lately:

- Lakers´negative streak in the league so far
- Berlusconi´s embolic attack, III
- 3000 "best ofs" of every possible thing, item or person you can imagine
- Christmas´ boredom for some, war on Christmas for other.
- Snow
- Pollini in Berlin
- Augustiner nostalgia
