What is and what should never be….

I definitely hate writing articles. Even this one, which is nevertheless very interesting.
Instead, I’m writing a SAS macro for bootstrapping a statistic. And I really enjoy it

Maybe I should write statistical articles. Even if it’s a bit too early. Especially when you know that I’ve probably failed my first semester and therefore might be fired from the Matser’s program…

Anyway!

I miss DC, especially these days, where snowstorm is magnifing the city, while here snow is present but in a very shy way…

Always at wrong place. Always.

Am I crazy?

Just to let you know that I’ve created a new blog… I won’t post very often on this new blog, because it’s a blog about … … … SAS and statistics. Yes, yes, I know!

Anyway, here it is: MyStatPage

Very interesting approach

From MySpace page of the artist, i.e. Wolff:

I know there are a lot of Wolf-bands out there but I decided that Wolff is my name and I’m keepin’ it. I’ve been planning this project and making albums for a while but it has just now come to fruition as a complete entity unto itself. I previously played in some bands out of Austin, Texas where I used to live, one of which was called Drums and Tuba and for a while there we were playing well over two hundred shows a year. Last fall I hid in my apartment and worked on being able to pull this solo act off live. The concept I was working with is that all the sounds are generated by, with, and through the tuba itself with the help of numerous guitar pedals and other sundry looping devices. Singing is through the tuba. Percussion is banging on the tuba. You get the picture. And by the way, there’s no need to be afraid. It’s not nearly as scary as it sounds. I just added the amazing Steve Garafano (drums) to the mix and we are currently finishing an album together with other musical guests such as the one and only Tony Pratt singing on a couple songs. The album is being produced and engineered by Paul Mahajan and Mark Ephraim and should be done shortly…

Military Rules Said to Hinder Therapy

Published: December 7, 2009
Confidentiality rules breed suspicion in troops, and, some say, often make psychotherapy less effective.

Damn!

What the hell I’m doing in Switzerland???

It’s goddam Black Friday!

Life’s tough, baby, life’s tough.

Whatever works

It’s amazing, when, during a movie, you have the impression that you’re watching at yourself!!!!

Therefore, I’ve found that it’s a really excellent movie, with at last a life’s philosophy I could acknowledge.

Niels Bohr

The opposite of a correct statement is a false statement. But the opposite of a profound truth may well be another profound truth.

My heart goes boum

This morning (GMT+2) my heart was jumping inside my chest, was dancing, was laughing: A new album from the Eels is announced for January 19, 2010: End Times.
