Sagedane, ent mitte ülim kasu sõprade blogiuste kulutamisest: semitobedad testid, mis annavad pealkirjaks sobivaid vastuseid. Üle pika aja niigi ülemeeliku tuju parandamiseks tasus lugeda semiootika-alaste teoste soodusmüügi nimekirja, ilmne pärl: Creativity of God.

Plaanimisel jalgsimatk tundmatul trajektooril, PÖFFi Kärdla osakonna külastus ja vähemalt kaks asutuse jõulupidu. Osalus põhjendub erinevatel kaugustel inimsuhetega.

Töölt jooksevad kõik huvitavad vestluskaaslased ka minema... mingi vihje vä, sõbrad intellektuaalid? Hmmm!



In the years of the Han emperors in China, two centuries before the birth of Christ in the west, the Chinese perfected the crossbow with which to defeat the barbarians. The barbarians did not have the skills necessary to cast the bronze locks the crossbow requires. With the barbarians taken care of, a time of peace prevailed within the newly united states of China.


So from this crossbow developed one of the great aculturing factors by which civilisation itself is judged. I refer to the restaurant - and here I am guessing. But imagine the confidence, the civility required for people first to come to a strange table, possibly in a shady courtyard in Loyang, and to sit down with others whom they do not know, or only remotely know, without fear of being attacked or stabbed. An unknown chef then serves food, which they eat without fear that it may be poisoned. It's a revolution! The restaurant opens a new era in social relationships. In those remarkable circumstances, one not only eats, one converses. And from conversation new ideas are born.
