[...] Another curiosity which cropped up whilst reading Kafka’s Der Prozess can be found in the following quote: Außerdem schien es der Maler mißzuverstehen, warum K. nur am Bettrand blieb, er bat vielmehr, K. möchte es sich bequem machen und ging, da K. zögerte, selbst hin und drängte ihn tief in die Betten und Polster hinein.

Comment on Ten things I hate about me by Fips

Fips — Mon, 28 Feb 2011 15:10:34 +0000

Thanks for the comment Chris. I think that post was probably more pessimistic than it really ought to be. There certainly are some parts of the journey well worth enjoying. But sometimes it feels like that meandering river I'm sailing down is really a stream of sludge running through an industrial landscape; for every glimpse of a bush and shadow of a tree, there's a league of monotonous grey to have to paddle past. Incidentally, is Cyde Weys the link here?

Chris — Wed, 23 Feb 2011 14:33:32 +0000

I generally understand what you are saying. To be honest many of the points you've written here are some of my traits too. Though "I'm merely waiting for the end' doesn't account anymore, I am simply "enjoying the journey" as I feel, its not where we end up in life, but how we get there. Any sometimes, when we get to places, they are not what we expected. So in that case, I try not to expect anything, enjoy what I eat, finish what I started, be as creative as possible, and enjoy learning everything inbetween.

[...] Han lyckas på samma gång visa respekt för dem som tror på Gud och ge uttryck för sin avsky för den förtryckarinstitution kyrkan är och har varit. Fascinerande. Talet hölls 2009 under en debatt med den förhållandevis ambitiösa titeln ”The Catholic Church is a force for the good in the world” och arrangerades av Intelligence². Tyvärr kostar det £60 om året för att se hela debatterna, men en transkribering av just den här finns hos bloggen A mind @ play. [...]

The Catholic church ha reached poor and illiterate communities with the word of God.I am a Baptist myself,but I feel my church,Parklands Baptist Church,Nairobi,Kenya, has not reached common people in the way the Catholic Church has.Over this weekend I had a retreat at the Ressurection Garden,a few kilometers,from the City of Nairobi.As I walked through that garden, reading the scripture written on stone,right from the story of Adam in the Garden of Eden,Moses handing in the Ten Commandments,the conception of Jesus Christ, His teachings,especially the Sermon on the Mount,His crucifixion,His death and His ressurection,are portrayed so eloquently.Let us listen to what the common people say about their benefits from the Church.They will say better things about the Catholic Church than any other.

I have read what the panelists said and what questioners from the floor asked and commented on.I liked the reference to the ten commandments and the view that in the African society there are teachings which are made to us when we are being initiated into adulthood whose essence is moral.The debate focused on how the perpetraters/proponents of the Roman Catholic faith have failed,showing that extreme example of Sir Thomas More.The debate,especially from Christopher Hitchens,and Stephen Fry,did not touch on the inherent good of the Christian message as taught by the Roman Catholic Church.In criticising any religion we go off the point the moment we focus on the messengers.In Africa,for example,the miisionaries introduced Christianity without due regard to African culture and traditions,and in the process made so many blunders.And yet we cannot reject Christianity in Afriica because of the bad messengers.The Roman Catholic Church has sinned against children by having their best teachers turning on them and raping them.The church should accept its sin, cleanse itself, and using its "broken handle" move on with its work of preaching the Gospel to all nations.

Comment on The Google Docs Server Rejected Roundabout by Fips

Think you're right about the change with the server. Google did recently roll out some (optional) updates to Google Docs, maybe that has something to do with it, though hopefully this problem will be rectified soon.

I am getting the same message with Firefox 3.5.9 since Friday 5/8/10, for tiny (< 60KB) files, with and without conversion, which points to some changes at the server level, otherwise this would not happen to dissimilar users. I don't (won't) have gmail, so no workaround for me. In any case, for anyone having to email files defeats the point of google docs.
