    after an appropriate period of mourning, siggimus has dug out this old thing & is experimenting with it – another exciting chapter in his lifelong search for the perfect brew

    brand new wc light, momentarily functioning

    siggimus donned his electrician’s cap & heroically installed two brand new lights today!

    & by today, siggimus means all day, including hours & hours spent wondering why changing a light in rooms 1 & 2 would result in no electricity whatsoever in rooms 2 & 3

    fortunately, brother in law & handyman víðir was at hand (well, phone), pointing out that when you fiddle with electricity, flimsily deciding that some of the wires will not be needed, thank you, may not be entirely prudent

    so, after re-attaching some of those previously abandoned wires, everything seems to magically work!

    so, if you need an electrician & want quick, professional service, you should probably not call siggimus

    (actually, it’s not all gloom & doom @ casa siggimusum these days)

    but this is sad indeed

    after years & years of diligent, faithful service, you will be sorely missed, sweet, sweet maker of delicious, chest-hair-growing, industrial strength life juice

    oh! the memories!!

    you will always have a special place in the heart of siggimus

  • the chickens

    went to theatre last night, saw the chicken (hænuungarnir) by bragi ólafsson, of former sugarcubes bass-plucking fame, of current poet, novelist & playwright fame

    sigurhans, a big jazz aficionado calls an extra meeting with the residents of his building, with the aim of outing his next-door neighbours as the perpetrators of the monstrous theft of his 8 frozen chicken — sorely missed, even though they were 40% off

    try as they might, the characters are incapable of communicating with each other in any meaningful way, especially the old widow from upstairs, who is losing her hearing & manages to turn everything to the russian chicken-eating jazzband playing in karhula for her & jorma

    in a word hilarious, with some exquisite comic acting, and a brilliant set

  • shame about the music

    real cool video

    shame about the music.

    you might remember these guys as ‘the guys from the treadmill video’

    so they’ll be known as the guys with the videos

    they should call these short films & sell the songs as ‘the song from that short film …’
