Well, he’s back. A month too soon, winter has unveiled itself for the first time… Winter has returned! And from the looks of it my car did not like it one bit!

When I started my engine it started fine, but after 5 seconds I heard and felt two knocks coming from the engine. This is the first time I have experienced something like this but I suspect it has something to do with the freezing temperature. I hope this will be a rare event. Afterwards my diesel powered car ran just fine. I think I’ll make a small road trip next weekend to get the battery fully charged.

I myself didn’t like the cold weather much more. I hate scratching the ice from my windscreens, thank god for antifreeze. (Yes, I am that lazy ) When I arrived later at work the company small van was also covered in a nice ice coating. Thank God I didn’t need to drive that one around today. (Even though it is a fun little engine in there, much more powerful than mine, but because it is a van I always get the feeling that I will tip over in sharp turns so I go easy on the gas pedal.)

There’s a high pressure system above our country right now which causes things to be windstill. Not having any wind isn’t a bad thing you’dd think, but because there is no wind there’s fog and smog keeps floating around which doesn’t make air very healthy right now. It might seem stupid but I can sense that the air is not as fresh as it should be, in my opinion every one who’s doing sports outside right now isn’t that smart. There is a lot of filth floating around, I wouldn’t be surprised if it were healthier to smoke a sigaret inside.

But another time of the year is approaching, a happy time. Or so we think… The holidays and new year are a time of despiration over here for many. Lonelly depressed people start a campagne of suicides, thieves are having joyful times stealing the christmas gift money from unaware customers. And then there are people like me, who are just wondering, what’s the point of all of this? Getting gifts sure is nice, but that seems just so commercial Being together with the family might be another reason, but I do that everyday! Now from a religious point I can understand christmas for 100 percent, the birth of Jesus, that cool guy that could walk on water and heal the sick.

I bet Jesus was the Fonzy of his time. Always causing trouble amongst those silly imperialistic Romans, travelling with his merry bunch of friends and one other guy which they probably added for fun, Judas (like Steve Urkel in Family matters).

Judas must have looked similar.

I bet they had a lot of unwritten and overly funny adventures, kind of like the Goonies. Man I wouldn’t mind having a drink with those guys and hear some of those stories. Jesus is tha man

This is how I imagine Jesus and the gang, of course they were with a lot more, all together there were thirteen. Girls weren’t allowed in their club.
