Looks like Google is gathering Street View data in Marburg right now. I’m not sure though why they think our district (which is located a few km outside the actual city and has less than 3.000 citizens) is worth filming.
Yes, they very likely filmed me which means I’m going to end up in Street View. I’ll probably ask them to remove my face though!

Just a short post about the new Star Trek. Our local cinema showed the English version today, just came back home from there. I was a little worried J.J. Abrams might ruin the Star Trek franchise with it (not that I’m a fan or anything) but was still hoping for a good sci-fi action flick in the worst case. Well let me say he did a better job than I expected and it turns out to be a pretty decent homage to the original series and a modern action movie at the same time. It has its flaws like using a very cheap trick to allow the story but overall it’s a respectable effort. Abrams managed to make fun (in a good sense) of some of the cheasier aspects of the series while still maintaining a high level of appreciation for its qualities. So, if you like sci-fi movies and/or Star Trek, go watch it.

Yesterday, on the spur of the moment we decided to go to the Spiegelslustturm to eat some ice cream. The weather was so beautiful and it’s the closest thing we could think of that could possibly cary ice cream. As we’d never been there before and there were no signs leading towards the tower it was quite an adventure to even find it by foot! After a rather long walk we finally found it and it was worth the hassle. There’s actually a small café and a beer garden at the Kaiser-Wilhelm-Turm. Because it was so hot outside and I was a little jaded from the search I actually didn’t order an ice but a wheat beer instead. Very refreshing indeed! Here are some pics (nice view, isn’t it?)

I can’t even find the words to describe this site, just look at it… and as if the design wasn’t funny enough, try actually reading some of the content!

Even if you’re not interested in video games these two articles will be fun reading through. It’s incredible what kind of crappy games publishers are putting out these days, but some of the box art is even worse…

is like this?
Right, they build snowmen And so did the kids across the street. Unfortunately the snow began melting yesterday and the snowmen are dead by now. Glad I took the photo when they were still in good shape
