Zack & Miri Make a Porno, the latest movie from mastermind Kevin Smith, will be shown here in Sweden. Boo-yah! The date is set at January 9th, so you now where I'll be when that glorious day comes.
Of course, if I want to complain, the movie has already premiered in the states (October 31st), but at least I'll get to see it on the big screen; the first of Smith's movies where I get to do so. Yea!

Sorry
Hi,
Well, if anoyone (like my dear sister) was offended by the last post, I apologise. I understand that a lot of people are very afraid of dogs, and I did not mean to mock them in any way. I just meant that if possible, chill out.
And don't be offended so easily (just kidding).
Till next time!

Today was a Weird Day
Hi,
Well, I'll get right to it. Tonight I decided to take a walk, as I had a new SModcast to listen to. I walked towards Ica Maxi, but halfway there I turned up into the labyrinthine suburbs of Stenhagen. I walked through them and thought that I'd walk to Ica Maxi from there. Well, as it turns out, it's freakishly difficult to navigate through suburbs. I ended up somewhere, and tried walking back via a dark road I've ever seen before. It was paved, but no streetlights. As I walked on I saw that there were a cemetery there, and then another, and another, and another.. Turns out it was some form of gathering of (I think) non-christian graveyards. At least there were one for the believers of Islam.
Well anyway, as fun as walking through dark cemeteries in total darkness is, I decided that I should pick up my pace (I admit to a slight fear of darkness). I walked in what I thought was my desired direction, which was a "road" in a field. But then, to make me jump like a circus-seal, I heard a loud grunting. My first thoughts went directly to wild boars. As I had my earphones in, I didn't hear properly, so I hastily took them out and shone around with my ridiculously small lamp. Right next to me stood two humongous creatures staring at me. Then, the white of the two jumped at me. I sort of panicked for a split-second, and then I realised it was the biggest dog I'd ever seen. He placed his front paws on my shoulder and bounced of again, barking. Thankfully, I then hear their owner shouting at them, and shouting at me that "they only want to say hello!".
Turns out he was out walking his two Grand Donais, and he didn't have their leashes on, as the probability of meeting someone out there was very slim (I was way of the beaten path). The dogs weren't vicious in any way, just surprised and maybe scared to meet me I guess. The white on kept running forth and back to me, jumping now and then. The black one just stood and stared at me. When the man arrived he apologised and I said that it was okay, that they just startled me. The funny thing was that the two dogs were both much bigger than him, as they were easily more than a meter from paw to back, and then with the huge heads they were truly gigantic whereas he was maybe 160 tall. If they wanted to, they could, without breaking a sweat, drag the man wherever they wanted.
Well, I then asked him for directions, and he guided me back to civilisation. Thank the Gods.
He turned out to be really nice, and we talked all the way back to the suburbs.
Lucky for him that it was me he meet, by the way, as I know many people would freak out and start shouting at him and the dogs, and only riling them up even more. People are way too angry at everything. I mean, all in all it was a fun experience, so what's the big deal?
Well, enough of this, I don't want to start listing reasons why humans are often complete idiots; it would take up way too much of my time. Instead, I say to you all that, if you are ever in a similar situation, just chill man.
Peace out.

'Shroom Post
Hello,
This post will contain mostly pictures, and many of them depicts various mushrooms.
All of these are from the forest I sometimes walk in, trying to avoid other humans. It's located west of the centre of Uppsala, near Ica Maxi for those in the know. To ride my bicykle there takes about 12 minutes, so it's not far, and very much worth the trip. Especially when the sun is out.
The pictures below are from a couple of weeks ago, but I haven't had the energy to upload them till now, hence the nice autumn-y feel to them. Now, it's below zero in the nights and it has started snowing (the first fell friday the 31st of Octobre). Well, anyhow, enjoy the pictures.
(Oh, by the way, I'm trying another way to upload the pictures, so if the proportions of the pics seem odd, it's because of that).
This first one is the little path that divides the start of the forest and the suburbs of Uppsala.
Surprise, surprise. Another mushroom.

There are four or five sheep thriving once you exit the forest and enter the fields ahead.
The Amanita Muscaria.
This is a rather cool photo I think.
U.F.O. sightings in the forest has of yet only consisted of this odd 'shroom.
And yes, another odd fungi. The forest is (was) full of them.
This picture below is taken when you exit the forest I usually walk in. The forest visible is the one I'm talking about. Oh, the sheepsters live to the left of the picture. If you walk left from this picture, over the fields, you can enter another forest. And since the day that I took these photos was so nice, I did so. I was out walking for about 4 hours. Sweet.
Surprise, surprise. Another mushroom.
The picture below is the weirdest of all the mushrooms I found in the forest. Very spikey.
Well, that's it, once again. Please comment if you liked this post, and if you want to see even more photos from the forest, feel free to visit my Flickr page, linked at the top-left of this blog.
Until next time, have a good time.
