  • Yair Lapid: Don’t bother protesting, we can’t hear you

    I knew of course, that there were people protesting that we shouldn’t export our natural gas (I don’t want to hurt their democratic enthusiasm, but they should know that there isn’t any megaphone that can be heard in a cabinet meeting) This is a translated excerpt from a Facebook status post by Israel’s Secretary of […]

  • Same Ikea product, 30 years apart

    While going through my Mom’s old toolbox a few weeks ago, I found this: Probably from around 1980, it’s the Patrull drawer safety catch from Ikea. The funny thing is that just a couple days before that, I bought this: Same product, 30 years later! It’s so interesting to see the two products side by […]

  • And on that farm he had a hippopotamus!

    I’m not sure what to think of this. Jonathan’s tractor toy has a hippo instead of a pig: Here’s the original: When you press the hippo, it still sounds like a pig though. I guess we got the middle eastern version, pigs being considered impure and all. I wonder if it’s also the version sold […]

  • Eisbach Wave Surfers

    Got a chance to watch the surfers this morning at Munich’s English Gardens. Air temp was around -4°C, but it didn’t seem to bother these guys.

  • 2006 Ferrari F1 Car in Tel-Aviv

    Came across the Ferrari dealership in Tel-Aviv yesterday, and found out they have a 2006 248 F1 car on display. The car has Schumacher’s name on it, though I don’t know if it was actually ever driven in a grand prix. Still – I got excited like a little boy when I saw it!

  • Back in 2000

    Rather randomly today, I remembered that I designed some fonts and put them on the web (on a free host, of course). That was 12 years ago. This is how the site looked back then, via the Wayback machine.
