Liebster blog awards

So apparently I've been nominated for something  called  a Liebster blog award.
At first glance it's sort of a chain letter thing and as I always do with these things, I break the chain.
It's kind of a principle of mine not keep such things going. often they are pretty harmless and sweet, but some are rather nasty, when you look at them. Basically encouraging to do some form of harm to other, most often but passing on the chain.

So let's have a look at this:

1. Everyone nominated must write 11 fact about one self.
2. Answer the 11 questions posed by the nominator.
3. Choose 11 new victims to pass on the chain and relink their blogs. (I won't do that, first off most of the blogs I read have a higher SOE then to bother, and if anyone wanted to do this they could and would simply pick it up)
4. They need to have less then 200 readers.... Well, do I really need to dig those numbers out.
5. Go to their page and tell them.
6. Nominees can't back out. Hmm, sure they can. if they want to, they shouldn't be nominated in the first place. Think before acting, and do think again. It never hurts :)

So those are the rules, and feel free to go nominate people, the basic idea is good for any blog that hasn't already invalidated the award.


So Jea's Blanke Tanker nominated me and I will pick it up. She writes in danish, so I'll translate of course.

1. What matters most to you in life?

I'll get back you answering when I've completed the other tasks...
Ohh that's easy write down 11 facts...

Let's see:

1. I rarely only do one thing at anytime.
2. I used to be a Lifeguard.
3. I consume 3-4 liters of coffee everyday, by default.
4. I've got children, 3 of them?
5. I rarely sleep more ten 4 hours a day.
6. I'm always 5-10 minutes late.
7. I finally just picked up nineteen eighty four by George Orwell.
8. I have my honor badge as, most Alternative Troubleshooter of my class, hanging at my office.
9. I'm a certified sports couch.
10. I'm an excellent marksman using rifles.
11. I had schematic to recreate a arm-keyboard qwerty style, the size and essentially rip-off from The movie predator, 1 year before the Nokia Communicator reached the market. Cardboard prototypes with interfaces etc.

Well that's 11 uncommon facts I don't mind sharing with the WWW.
So for the questions:

1. What matters most to you in life?

This is a rather hard question to ask a person with my mindset, the quick and simple answer is nothing. The political correct answer is my family, children, wife etc expand as you wish. Truth is that what matter the most to me is my mind. I'm curious by nature and without a mind cable to actually cope with the loads of information I tend to gather from my unsuspecting surrounding, I'd be boredom which is essentially what I'd consider a slow death.


2. What's the most awesome experience you've had with you blog?

That's an easy one. I've had no experiences with my blog I deem worthy to even remotely remember.
Maybe with more activity and so on, but until people ready to read it finds it, it's merely an outward channel, with no reactions.


3. How much of my blog have you been reading, and what is your favorite post?

I've actually been reading all of Jea's Blanke Tanker. I rarely go more then a few hours after a new post before I read it. Often I forget or don't want to comment. Maybe i should make more of an effort to do so. Considering what my favorite post would be.... hvordan så hun det.. That one I believe.


4. What is the most embarrassing you want to share with your readers?

Now that's a funny question. As what's embarrassing tome, migth not be so for you, and vice versa.
I don't share stuff that I find personally embarrassing, at least to a higher degree then if we actually saw eye to eye  over a barrel of coffee.


5. What is the last thing you ate?

White bread with butter and ham.


6. What animal would you compare yourself against?

If you need to ask, you don't really know me.

Does Tigger count???? To be more serious in the matter: Lynx



7. When was the last time you where treated to a really good time?

First off, I truly can't remember. Secondly, again: What you consider a royal time, I most likely will find dull and some task I need to be done with in order to have a great time.


8. When was the last time you were really scared?

I've been thinking about this fore a while now. Last summer I was scared and choked by a spider attacking, and I remember this because it once more showed me how I'd react in panicked situations. I was truly scared for 3 seconds, but that's all it takes rigth.
The more abstract form of being scared... Not really it's not in my blood, you'd have to tap into my primeval fears to trigger a response, which then would be instinctive and reactive.


9. What was the last movie you watched?

I need a while to remember: Dark Knigth Rises (Batman), can't remember if that was 4 or 11 days ago.


10. Who in your family do you admire the most?

That's an easy one. My grandfather, after that I'd say my father. They are and were a strange bunch, but they have/had character that demanded respect.


11. When was the last time you did a good deed?

What's a good deed really? If I give an alcholic a bottle of Liquor, he'd praise me for it, and call it a good deed, would you?
If I carry someone through life is that a good or sad deed?
If I kick someone that spite me and thus succeed, would me kicking them be a good deed?
I don't count or monitor when I do good or bad deeds. I merely act and hope you benefit the most from my actions, whether or not my actions involves any type of sacrifice on my part, And I'd certainly not bother you with my choices. I'm responsible for my own actions and not how you perceive them. You should remember and contemplate this as a universal truth, and then you can start asking yourself if that itself was a good deed.
