Sorry for being lazy & traffic jams

Having scanned through Celso's blog I do feel guilty for not blogging in the last couple of days (or is it weeks, already). True, things are piling up and there is so much stuff to take care of at the moment, but nevertheless I should get going here... Even Mark managed to blog while his third child was born, so COME ON MARIO!

I was actually hoping for you readers to write some comments because visitor numbers are actually not as bad as I figured they would be. Probably my posts are too boring anyways. Some people say that's because the idiot behind it is as well...now you can't go partying with a blog, right?!

But because some may have a point, I will start posting about things happening in my life as well to make this blog more "alive" in a way. I feel that things are moving, the wheels are turning and I see myself moving in some kind of a direction here. Oddly enough I even receive job offers now...some of which actually do float my boat. We'll see what happens, I'll keep you informed! Even some friends of mine do experience a lot of changes these days. One just split up, another is thinking of buying a vehicle... (You can easily spot the relevance I attach to these things, because I'm posting them here ;)

Yesterday I was driving home (I mean home home) on the Autobahn and I got so frustrated again with German driving habits! (Explanation for my non-German readers: We are supposed to drive on the RIGHT side of the highway, moving to the LEFT when overtaking and then moving BACK to the RIGHT. You are not allowed to overtake someone on the right, no matter what happens.) I had to realize that a single car can completely clock up the whole route when he/she is driving on the left lane when nobody is breaking the rules. And don't think people wouldn't do that... They drive on the left overtaking somebody, see another truck about 1 or 2km (about a 1 mile) away and STAY ON THE LEFT! I actually counted the number of cars staying on the left between to trucks when the right lane was EMPTY the other day and arrived at 23. That means that on the same stretch of road where you could have 46 cars if the highway is full (but moving), you just have 23 cars. Now guess what's causing endlessly long traffic jams...

I also realized that I won't manage to change the people behind the wheel and make them move over to the right.

Please tell people to do so when you meet one in person...help reducing traffic jams...thanks!
