General

To everyone who is able to receive BBC Prime and is fond of british comedy, I can recommend "Coupling" (which is currently also aired on ORF2 around 0:20 in the night, but in German) with original sound, which makes it even funnier than in German: every saturday evening/night, from 23:00 to 0:30, 3 episodes of it are aired.

In my decadence, I was shopping today. I finally bought an iPod. Other than planned, I decided on buying the 20 GB version. Originall, my plan was to buy the 15 GB version, which was announced that it would come with docking station and remote control. But today, at McShark, they told me that the 15 GB version doesn't come with all that extra stuff. Since I was very much interested in the docking, the remote control and the little protection bag, I decided to buy the 20 GB version instead, because buying all that stuff additionally would make the 15 GB iPod more expensive than the 20 GB version. What silly price politics.



And because I was happy, I decided to buy the new iLife'04, too. No, actually I'm a bit angry about Apple, because the latest iPhoto version is the first one that is not given out for free, and also the first one that is actually able to handle more than 1000 pictures (25000, according to the ads). But anyway, I'm also very much interested in GarageBand, which is installing right now. As soon as I have some time to play with it, I will bring a report about it.



And shoes... I urgently needed new "winter" shoes (my last ones were falling apart already, and I can't wear my Converse in winter), so I went to Sport Eybl and quickly decided on the Vans Fuji, a simple, robust, comfortable, casual shoe that gives me the safeness that I need in my daily life.
