After a few incidents I’ve started to record my driving – I see a lot of fun and tragic stuff. This for instance is something I see every day:

Sometimes I wonder what on earth we’re doing when inventing new stuff. In so many cases it has been done before – either thousands of years ago or just a century or two.
Today I read about the Eko Stoplight by Damjan Stanković and the first thing that came to my mind was Charles Marshall’s invention from 1936(!). Check it out here:
Ofcourse the Eko Stoplight is cooler but… Why do we have to keep reinventing stuff instead of using the knowledge to evolve ourself?
Here is the Eko Light:
Last Saturday someone forgot their 24k Euro on a tram in Oslo. Now the police have them for analysis. It reminds me of the lady in Sweden who forgot a lot of money, I wrote about it here.
I’m not going to setup a poll this time, I just want to mention that VG (a large newspaper in Norway) asks these questions in a poll; deliver it to the tram-driver, keep the money or give them to charity. Isn’t that a weird set of options?
What do you think it misses?
I think it misses “deliver them to the police”.
In VG’s poll people are choosing “keep the money”, I would do the same if I had the same options.
Though to be honest I would have chosen to keep them for myself then I would visit the police and deliver them there. I wouldn’t give it to the driver.
The “Pocket man” in Norway is in trial for molesting hundreds of children. Its a guy from my area and I hope he get life in prison. (sadly this mean 9 to 15 years in prison here in Norway)
This is one of his pants that he was wearing when he asked kids to pick up stuff from his pockets. Lets just say that noone would expect what they touched down there. Sick man.

I’ve had it with polls between elections. We’ve just had an election and now media is starting with polls allready, 4 years until next election.
What is the point? We cannot throw out our government because of lousy numbers in a poll, people doesn’t care. Argh… I hate polls like that.
I wish they wrote about the hundreds of schools Norway is loosing these days – thousands of children have to move to other schools, meny of them have to walk dangerous unlit roads to their new school. Hooray for Norway. I wish Michael Moore would do another documentary; because his documentary about Norway is forgery – he should update his knowledge about Norway. Can someone tell him please?
