    TESO #51 - "Come in Number 51, Your Time is Up"

    Comment
    "Come in Number 51, Your Time is Up" song by Pink Floyd.

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Come_in_Number_5...
    "Come in Number 51, Your Time Is Up" is the final track of the movie Zabriskie Point´s soundtrack album.
    Made by the British progressive rock band Pink Floyd, it is a remake of their single B-side "Careful with That Axe, Eugene".
    (Oh, I really didn't know that ... serendipitous finding!)
    Here's the video (Man braucht ein wenig Geduld):
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ResQFDDsDAI
    And a snapshot for mykl (should have been larger - sorry about that!):

    The code for international direct dial phone calls to Peru.

    The model number of the P-51 Mustang WWII fighter aircraft

    "Paul is Live" album (1993): Paul McCartney's cover shot in front of London's Abbey Road Studios. A parody of the original Abbey Road. Paul, then 51, is wearing shoes, and the Volkswagen bears a license plate that reads "51 IS" (instead of "28 IF" as on Abbey Road).
    http://www.amiright.com/album-covers/images/a...

    The name of a band - http://www.schoenecken-eifel.de/highway_51.htm

    The Parker 51, introduced in 1941, may well be the most famous fountain pen ever made.
    (Pelikan!!!)

    A brand of pastis (anise liqueur) manufactured by Pernod Ricard.
    (Mais, non!)

    In some circles, 51 signifies peace, respect, unity, and family.
    (Don't know anything about these circles.)

    The number of the French department Marne.

    Roman: LI

    http://www.zeit.de/1998/41/Einundfuenfzig_

    U.S. Route 51 is a north-south United States highway that runs for 1,286 miles (2,070 km) from northern Wisconsin to the western suburbs of New Orleans, Louisiana.
    In addition to singing about U.S. Highway 61 on his album Highway 61 Revisited, musician Bob Dylan also commemorated Highway 51, covering Curtis Jones' folk song "Highway 51 Blues" on his eponymous album Bob Dylan.

    Bundesautobahn 51 war der Projektname einer in den 1970er Jahren geplanten Autobahn.
    Sie sollte von Duisburg-Rheinhausen über Krefeld, Viersen, Hückelhoven nach Aachen führen.
    (Ein Autobahnanschluss für Hückelhoven - unverzichtbar!!!)

    Einundfünfzig ist ein einfaches Kartenspiel für zwei bis vier Spieler, zumeist Kinder.

    Thanks for the lovely new home, Emil!! And, thanks to Wari, too, for lugging all our stuff.

    Moin, All! Am running late today - slept till 9:45 because Kimmy-cat has finally seemed to have caught on to the fact, that you do NOT scratch Mommy's nose at 4 a.m :-)) Had wanted to get up much earlier, but heard the rain pouring down - and it's still at it :-((

    Was having trouble fighting off discouraged mood last night, when they played "Drift Away" on the radio - last heard in CA: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-GHCDnjQXdw
    Got tickled, because up to now, I'd sing along at the top of my lungs: Gimme the PEOPLE, and ease my soul - when he actually says: Gimme the BEAT BOYS :-))

    edit on: How on Earth do you teach a cat that she may NOT play with all the various wires dangling under Mommy's desk :-)

    Great news, Wari!! Made a dash for town, and lo and behold, the rain quit, sun came out - on the way back, it started raining again, and by the time I arrived, I could see the lightning hitting the nearby fields - scary as all heck - saw what was obviously a group of kids on a "Klassenfahrt" hiking up the "Höllental" looking anything but happy :-)) Poor honeys!

    *sigh* I used to have a barber like that. It took about 40 minutes to have a simple hair cut, but he was massaging your head all the time he was "cutting". Service like that is too expensive these days.

    Gut'n Tach allerseits!

    Ich habe eben mit 'de-grayed' nach Bildern gegoogelt, und finde nichts Passendes!
    Stattdessen etliche Bilder, die in früheren TESO-Fäden verlinkt worden sind.
    Mit 'dyed hair' findet man etwas - aber wo ist der Unterschied?
    Oder ist degrayed ein Euphemismus?
    Out for teatime ...

    mykl, Yeah, he used to cost 70-80 DM for "the works: trimming, washing, de-graying, rolling, and eyelashes dyed" - he still does, but in euros, which is why I only have it done once a year.

    Yes it is, rather, isn't it? Bit materialistic, perhaps. I might prefer dreaming of sun-flooded green beech woods with singing black-birds, but hey, I still like that expression :)
    Apple butter, that sounds delicious. So is it like Apfelmus? Or is it as sweet as jam?

    Definitely sleep now.

    I hear you loud and clear, easy - it's NOT FAIR!!! Heard a book review on the radio today "Schön Reich" was the title, I think - about how the rich pay much less (or NO) tax in Germany, than do the average working force. And the contributors to this book were the rich - one guy has an "Immobilien" company, and can deduct his personal trainer (fitness) from his taxes, because he calls him "coacher" - plus, the same guy can deduct a yacht purchased in Monaco, as a "show model".

    Bye, Wari.
    Das erinnert mich an einen bösen Satz, den ein angehender Zoo- und Wildtierarzt mal gesagt hat (in Bezug auf irgendein Kind, was genervt hat, und irgendwelchen Schutzmaßnahmen): Da Homo sapiens sapiens ja nicht annähernd vom Aussterben bedroht ist, ist Individuenschutz völlig überflüssig.
    *sfg*
    Ich mag den Tierarzt zwar nicht, mußte aber trotzdem lachen. Kann aber sein, dass das in die Sparte Insider-Witz fällt, über den man nur grinsen kann, wenn man an den Jargon und die "Ethik" des Berufes gewöhnt ist...

    Moining all !
    Mykl, going to a festival on the same weekend as Glastonbury is never a good idea! This is the first year that I’m not going for a long time (due to the ridiculous ticket policy M.E. has adopted), I have experienced some horrific things there and as a old festival fox I can only suggest that you take clothes for both extremes, but most importantly wellies and sun screen!
    I was at the Dorntadt Woodstock revival with the kids last weekend and had a fantastic weekend of sun and music! Hope you can say the same next week, have a great weekend and stay away from the brown acid!! (not that you would so silly) :-)

    mykl, You do have sense enough to bring along a change of clothes :-))

    As for playing in the mud, that's loads of fun when the sun's shining, and you've just added a bit of water to the sand in sandbox :-))

    Hi Carly, the amount of clothing isn't really the issue, I've just grown out of standing up to my knees in mud and water for the sake of musik. We'll just have to wait and see, but if the rain comes as "promised" you ain't gonna get me out of the tent.

    Same to you Wari! *bussi* Und DANKE - Sandra und ich sind "im Geschäft" :-))

    Well, mykl, I drove by there yesterday on the way to the stables - no sign of a tent. But naturally, in their "wisdom" they have a construction sight set up right where you (and many others, probably) need to turn in to the camp site - though, I'm 99% sure, there's another route. But, ESW is currently one construction site after the other. Would you like me to bring you an extra string of "love beads"?? :-)) SCNR

    edit on: The SUN just came out - wonder how I could trick/coerce it into sticking around till about 1:30 am Sunday???

    I know, mykl - but on one route to the campsite, you turn in heading towards the stables - and they have a construction site there - street blocked in one direction, and the "turning space" is greatly reduced.

    Carly, this is something I always feared would happen to me since I had got my private internet connection three months ago. I don't trust in all these firewalls and security centres.
    I am not sure, whether this will help:
    http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dialer
    In any case it seems to be important to challenge the provider's invoice.
    Maybe it would be a good idea to post the issue in Land und Leute to get some help from the lawyers in LEO?
    I think, it should be possible to sort out such things, if you have a long record of telephone bills without such connections.

    Moin! Just got back from the dentist - swung by the Meinhard See, but couldn't see whether they've started erecting a tent, or not - some guy was tail-gating me, and I couldn't get a good (slow) look :-) However, the one construction site is gone!! Am sooooo excited! Mykl, that should be about the time I'm expecting my sister to give me a ring/bell, too - and I would drive down to the B27, to show her the way. Not planning on cooking for her tomorrow, but "dining" out at McDonald's :-) My daughter laughed at me/looked sceptically down her nose at me, because rather than lug around my purse, I had told her that I would most likely be taking my age-old "Bauchtasche" http://www.einsatzmittelshop.de/shop_cfg/Eins... - she said: Mama, daß kann doch nicht Dein Ernst sein, oder?? But why not? It might not be the most fashionalble thing around, but it sure is practical - holds cigs, lighter, money, comb, MYKL'S ticket :-))

    Hi Igelin! Well, today's weather was much better than forecasted, soooo I have high hopes for tomorrow. Just got into a spat with my sister, who is coming from the Taunus region. She's always sorta "programmed" her mind, and cannot "de-program" herself. Since she's only be to my new place once, I had offered to meet her on the B27, and lead her back here. Have coffee/cake, deposit her things, and then drive back down the mountain and go wild....she just called: Well, Carly, I have ballet lessons tomorrow and I don't want to miss it (she has ballet about 3 time per week). It's from 11:30 - 12:30 - how long should it take me to get there?? Me: Jill, there's a 10-km long construction site, just one of many, and depending on traffic, about 3 hours, or longer - that's cutting things very short, it starts at 5:00 - Well, yeah, but that's my idea. ME: Well, MY idea is that I have been looking forward to this for months, need to meet mykl to give him his ticket, want to find a parking place and BE THERE when it starts. Well, Carly, I hear someone beeping in the background, got another phone call - so what will we do?? ME: I'm going to be there ON TIME!! SISTERs!!!!

    Igelin, ja, zumal sie ursprünglich bereits Freitag anreisen wollte! Na ja, sie hat es aber DOCH pünktlich geschafft, and we had a BLASTTTTTTT!! Got home at about 1:45 a.m. - it was just GREAT - the only "sour" note was the woman who did Joan Baez - more like she was trying out for a soprano two-bit part at the opera :-))) She did her songs in the highest "C" of C octaves - and turns out, she's one of the local MUSIC teachers LOL!!! Sure glad she never "taught" my children :-)) It was basically dry, but sprinkled every now and then - just enough so that I went Curly-Corkscrew-Carly-headed :-) Got "insider info" yesterday that next year they're going to have a Country-Western festival - and I love that, too - sooooo, know where I'll be this time next year.
    Just heard that mykl made it back safe and sound.

    The Fairy has the smallest blossoms, just about 3cm in diameter. Bonica is mostly the same, just bigger blossoms (up to 6cm). Dornröschenschloss Sababurg does grow much smaller and Bad Birnbach is much darker pink! *laughs* Well you'd know that after you'd seen about 1500 different ones in about 3 hours ;)
    That were just the ones I wrote down for further whatever.. Will have to look into prize and care and soil and alike before deciding for one of them. Should like shade..or I'll have to place it in the middle of the green..

    My favorites are teat hybrid (GOSH, thats a lovely one, what is it?!)
    My favorite roses are the mauve coloured ones, though
    blue moon
    Mainzer Fastnacht (which could be the same, comne to think of it)
    black baccara (OBVIOUSLY ^^)
    but this one is lovely as well
    gloria dei
    I love white tea hybrids, but I really don't like English roses or the plain dog rose, apart from this one Schottische Zaunrose - rosa rubiginosa THAT one is lovely, the leaves smell of apples!!!!
    And at the animal shelter here in Munich theay have a pink rose where the blossoms smell of apples. That's lovely, too :)))

    Moin!

    mykl, congrats for your first home i-net access!

    Emil: My Dad was at the Tag der Niedersachsen..probably, you've seen him there.. :)

    easy.. Saw Gloria Dei, too..it's wonderful.. but I think those superior looking roses won't fit into my chaos of a garden.. So I think the more fluffy-ruffy kinds will fit in more easily.. I like the dark red ones,too, but lavender/purple (also lila) doesn't suit a rose in my opinion. And I really don't know, why I love girly-pink roses..

    Well..I don't need to justify myself, do I.. There are this two pink things mentioned in thread '48..The bottle was a present by two friends over in AK, who exactly knew I don't like pink..and that's why they chose the color.. And the cell.. Everybody else in the family has more or less the same model in silver, black and blue.. I wanted the same model, but a different color..
    As for the roses.. Well that's nature for you. I don't like purple or orange either, but there are certain sunsets featuring them beautifully.

    So, that's that. No clothing, furniture or other item in pink, orange or purple..but in nature: yes, please, go for it!

    Could we now please close the color-discussion and change the subject?! What about..weather?

    Am currently listening to a TP audiobook: Men at Arms, read by Nigel Planer..

    Hi All! Can we get back to discussing the weather, as I haven't a clue as to what you two are talking about - well, a clue yes, because I just recognized "Discoworld" - but....the company that I worked at for a scant 4 months called this morning, accepted my rates, and mentioned that in a couple of months, if all goes according to plan, they'd like to hire me back at a "400-Euro-Job" for starters - that'd suit me FINE - would at least almost cover my rent :-))

    I've confused Carly with Emil (don't know why), so now I'm trying to get out of it by explaining that due to my leo withdrawal experience I've started hyperventilating, which caused too much CO2 to leave my bloodstream resulting in a respiratory alkalosis. Any questions? ^^

    No, not really - though I did a scant 15 minutes of work for the hydraulics company - the head called me, and to make a longer story short, said that even if it only takes a few minutes to translate, please charge at LEAST 5 euros :-))) Now that's a good way of looking at things.

    edit on: We've settled on an "hourly rate" because they currently couldn't pay a per-line usual rate, and should they make it through the financial storm, well they'd like to hire me back - soooo, it's in my own best interests.

    Carly..das ist kein Widerspruch in sich.. Zumal sich das Christentum doch ständig auf die Naturreligionen bezieht (Ostern, Weihnachten, Maria, Allerheiligen usw usf..) Eigentlich sind dem Menschen von "Natur aus" sogar die Naturreligionen näher.. es ist einfacher, an sowas wie Sturm und Donner oder die Sonne als Göttliche Macht zu glauben als an sowas wie die Heilige Dreifaltigkeit.. Die Christlichen Religionen leiden auch einfach sehr unter ihrem Bodenpersonal :(

    PS: Und wer sich (speziell als Frau) ein bißchen mit der Geschichte der Katholischen Kirche auskennt, kriegt eh das kalte Ko.. erm..Grausen.
    Nicht, daß Du mich mistverstehst, ich bin auch "gut katholisch" und glaube an eine Göttliche Macht..aber den alten Mann mit Bart..hach, nee..

    Wari, das stimmt - aber die Inquisition und Hexenverbrennung kamen NICHT von Gott, sondern von Menschen/Männer. I remember when we had the "Salem Witch Trials" at school, how horrified I was, because they either tortured people until they "confessed" OR one test of a witch was to throw them into a lake/river, and if she sunk - OK, innocent, but dead - if she swam - OK, guilty, let's burn her at the stake.

    True, there was certainly no Deity involved. But I guess the men behind (or rather in front) of it are the main hindrance to keep up the belief. I mean..You are confronted with things like the pope flying to Africa and telling people silly things about sex.. And still you are catholic..
    I truly do love a classic catholic Mass, especially Easter morning.. BUT I have to admit there are things between heaven and earth I'd rather trust a Goddess to be responsible for..

    I guess you've discussed that at length with easy.. I've been born and bred catholic, but also kind of free minded, so that's where I ended up.. Still catholic, but somewhat doubtful and open to a lot of other ideas..

    PS: And I didn't mean only the witch trials and alike.. I mean their attitude towards women in general.. Unworthy, minor, daft.. Nice, innit. And Ratzi isn't any better concerning that.

    Well, I was raised basically Presbyterian, but we attended any church APART from the Catholic one, that happened to be in the nearer vicinity - Baptist, Methodist, Presbyterian, which all teach "a close relationship with Jesus". But, I had many Catholic friends and just because religion has always interested me, I went with them to Cathechism. I wasn't baptised as a baby, so I had myself baptised Catholic at age 22 :-)) Also went through a 2-year period with the "Jesus Movement" in CA.
    I'm just Christian first, Catholic second - and NO I do NOT believe all that the Pope "teaches"

    Good morning people, a very happy thursday to one and all. My day off was arranged at very short notice, I suppose I could have "reported out" from home.... if I'd remembered that I've now got Internet. *chuckle* It still hasn't quite sunk in yrt and to be honest I don't think it's going to be THE feature of my private life. Well, not until I'm unemployed *ggg*

    A couple of weird things about Wimbledon...

    Dress regulations at Wimbledon have always been strict. Until 1954, it was compulsory for ladies on Centre Court to play in full evening dress, and for men to play in white tie and tails, with medals.

    The last player to wear a bowler hat on Centre Court was Ernest Pleydell-Monson in 1962. Even today, women players on all courts are obliged to wear two pairs of underpants, to guard against snappage.

    Up until 1877, The All England Lawn Tennis Club at Wimbledon employed hamsters to chase after the tennis balls. But hamsters proved incapable of picking up anything large, so to accommodate their small mouths and hands, the tennis balls were made progressively smaller. Eventually the balls became so tiny that they would go right through the little square gaps between the strings of the tennis racquets. This led to general outcry from the players

    Interesting, mykl :-)) So, back then they had to wear formal dress when playing tennis (which I do NOT watch), but since my mother does watch it, I've seen the occassional game - now they all sound like their peaking at orgasm - what do these UHHHH OOOHHH UHHHHs contribute to their game??

    I very much like the Club's colours: purple and green.

    Didn't know about those underwear rules, but I find it hard to believe what the article says about hamsters and decreasing ball size.

    Carly, you are not the only one feeling disturbed:

    Well, that's encouraging, at least - whoever convinced these "ladies" that those disgusting grunts are sexy, must be the same guy who convinced (some) women that baboon-type lips are, too :-))

    Hi everybody,

    Igeling, thanks, but though the lyrics are not a bad guess, it's not the song, I'm afraid. "Mine" is really quiet, and the singer's voice is deeper.
