Living under more danger than we have to

A nice complicated panel with about 22 lights which was linked to smoke detectors in about 20 areas of the school. Funny thing? Of the other two lights, the one with the label "défectuosité" was lit for about two weeks on an otherwise dark panel.


It's only after a microwave going kaput (either from it's old age or because it got some help), producing smoke and a foul smelling combination of burnt food and electronics without the smoke alarms tripping did we finally see somebody, a day or two afterwards, hunched over that panel.

But of course, those two weeks shouldn't have affected you all that much I expect. You all know how the building can't burn because of the asbestos in it, or that if it did burn, most of us would burn with it because of the outrageously small stair cases and strategically constricted hallways.

And damn, when is that new building coming around?

Time for a Hero

We need heroes in trying times. We need role models took look up to, for inspiration, motivation and I really don't know where I'm going with this cliché opening so I'll just stop.

This is NOT an advertisment for

Shit is going down in Greece because of the economic clusterfuck that's going on over there. People ain't happy, and when people ain't happy, they protest.
And since quite awhile now, protesters in Athens, Greece, have a dog as their frontliner. One kickass dog that isn't afraid of going against a wall of riot police.


Here's Riot Dog's facebook page.

We still don't know if it's a stray, or if it has a owner, or if it even is the same dog. But either way, it just goes to show that in trying times, it's good to have a hero.
Keep on protestin', you Greekstas!

(They say QC's on her way to the same fate. But who believes that, eh?)

PS: demotivational poster depicts Hitler had he been accepted into that art academy.
