Saturday, September 27, 2008. My friend Adam the Astronomer is back in Chile again. Check out the link to his fifth online journal on the left side of this page. It contains tales of science and Chile. It's a good read. His sister Emily has just taken a job at the University of Rennes in France. Her blog is also an amusing read, although it is a very different sort of blog! Also see the link to the left.). Links to this post. Thursday, September 25, 2008. It's newsletter time again!

Die Stille im Lande: October 2007
http://diestille.blogspot.com/2007_10_01_archive.html
Monday, October 29, 2007. Smart vs. stupid customer service. I have always maintained that the difference between smart customer service people and stupid ones is as obvious as night and day. And you won't get what you need until you find a smart one, the stupid ones just will never do. I venture. Blank stares. Nobody gets up off their seats. I try again: "Hello! I go to Superstore to have a photo blown up to 11"x14". I inquire if they can do that. The lady says they can. I ask when it will b...I take my...

Die Stille im Lande: November 2007
http://diestille.blogspot.com/2007_11_01_archive.html
Tuesday, November 20, 2007. This morning was sunny and chilly. Snow has now fallen on the entire height of the mountains, not just the tops. With the sky being that light, chilly blue and the mountains now being light, dusty grey, you need to do a double-take to determine exactly where the horizon lies. It's very pretty. So today, I once again saw these berries and remembered the strange way that memory can work. And I popped some, of course. Links to this post. Tuesday, November 13, 2007. Adam - in chile.

Die Stille im Lande: May 2008
http://diestille.blogspot.com/2008_05_01_archive.html
Friday, May 23, 2008. I had to return something at Safeway yesterday, and the man behind the customer service desk had a nametag that said: "Trevor McSpadden - Person In Charge." I'm thinking the logic behind that kind of job title is that when some crazy lady decides she's going to throw a fit and demands to speak to someone in charge, they can bypass this kind of conversation:. Lady: "I demand to speak to someone in charge! Trevor: "That's me, ma'am. I'm the Assistant Shift Supervisor.". Adam - in chile.

Die Stille im Lande: rain
http://diestille.blogspot.com/2008/08/rain.html
Tuesday, August 26, 2008. Today it rained, and I am sad that summer is almost over, and that we are returning to the endless dark and gloom and wet that is winter in Vancouver. But don't you get autumn? Well, I will commiserate with you from the rain, gloom and darkness that is Norway's permaweather/permaseason. :). Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Die Stille im Lande.

Die Stille im Lande: September 2007
http://diestille.blogspot.com/2007_09_01_archive.html
Tuesday, September 18, 2007. The changing of seasons is a curious thing. I find that most people observe the change almost like a checklist or a scavenger hunt. Collect all the signs of fall/spring/summer/winter! Each marker of change that you observe seems significant at the time, but the following day you will observe a new one that seems even more final. NOW fall is beginning! Items on the autumn checklist may include:. Leaves changing colour and falling, each species of tree at its own time. If you'r...

Die Stille im Lande: February 2008
http://diestille.blogspot.com/2008_02_01_archive.html
Monday, February 18, 2008. We spent the weekend in Victoria with Aaron's family (2 parents, sister brother-in-law, and us = 6 total). It was their treat to us for our birthdays/Christmas/Valentine's day. It was an awesome B&B with a famous breakfast (they made a whole cookbook about it), and it was also very relaxing and fun. This was our suite. I like the fireplace. In Victoria we walked around and saw the Empress hotel an did some shopping. Which brings me to my next link. They were on sale! This is th...
