\ud83d\ude42 [28 september 2002]<\/span><\/h3>\n

having mulled it over for 20 days, da old geezer finally decides siggimus is worth it & can have his tiny little studio apartment<\/p>\n

siggimus is ecstatic<\/p>\n

quite thrilled<\/p>\n

this place fits siggimus like a glove because it’s so close to his work that he’ll be able to walk! & of course because it’s fair cheap<\/p>\n

news of new address soon<\/p>\n

finally!!! [24 september 2002]<\/span><\/h3>\n

the big day has come!!<\/p>\n

siggimus has been working on a cute little web for a 3rd party & the price was agreed upon as 25 big ones<\/p>\n

a few days later, after a quest lasting 10 years, siggimus finally hears of turtles for sale<\/p>\n

two little buggers<\/a>, 2 years old, fishtank, pump & ultraviolet light (another thing siggimus wouldn’t mind having)<\/span><\/p>\n

price: 25 big ones<\/p>\n

\ud83d\ude10<\/p>\n

coincidence?!!?<\/p>\n

siggimus doesn’t think so!!<\/p>\n

still, dem things lives to be ca. 40, so this calls for a lifetime commitment!! worse than finding a chick, actually :\/<\/p>\n

so now the big question is: a parakeet (puh!) & siggimus.is or two turtles that will swim around inside a fishtank for the next 38 years?<\/p>\n

what do you<\/a> think?<\/p>\n

siggimus [22 september 2002]<\/span><\/h3>\n

is a survivor
\nis not gon give up
\nis not gon stop
\nis gon work harder
\nis a survivor
\nis gonna make it
\nwill survive
\nkeep on survivin’<\/p>\n

bring it on!<\/p>\n

siggimus has passed the test & now has an official permit allowing him to have 10 kids<\/p>\n

wanna help siggimus?<\/a><\/p>\n

oh! the humanity!! [21 september 2002]<\/span><\/h3>\n

siggimus lets his little (b)rat of a nephew to talk him into allowing a friend to stay over<\/p>\n

apart, they are 2 handfuls each<\/p>\n

together, they are the equivalent of 17,3 handfuls<\/p>\n

siggimus puts all on the line: should he survive, he will give himself a certificate stating he is qualified to have up to 11 children of his own; should he perish, there will be no worries about future<\/p>\n

so, if there are no further updates to this wee annal, you will know that siggimus was at last bested<\/p>\n

callipyge [17 september 2002]<\/span><\/h3>\n

scientists have discovered an elusive mutated gene that causes certain sheep to have unusually large, muscular bottoms. the gene is called “callipyge,” meaning “beautiful buttocks” in greek. researchers from the u.s. dep. of agriculture and duke uni medical c. hope the genetic mutation will illuminate how muscle and fat are deposited in these animals and possibly in humans. the unusual gene, which has evaded detection for nearly a decade, could prove beneficial because it enables these sheep to convert food into muscle 30 percent more efficiently than normal sheep. “these sheep are, in effect, pumping iron without lifting weights,” researcher randy jirtle said. time to throw out the thigh master and get some big-bottomed sheep genes<\/p>\n

callipyge<\/a><\/p>\n

definitely a word to memorise<\/p>\n

well, siggimus always said sheep<\/a> were special<\/p>\n

booogey! [13 september 2002]<\/span><\/h3>\n

siggimus is required to drink a lot of beer at work<\/p>\n

puh!<\/p>\n

well, after a jolly good time with the colleagues, siggimus absconds for a jolly good time with the ole gang at norr\u00e6na h\u00fasi\u00f0<\/p>\n

suprising amounts of fun \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

party on! [12 september 2002]<\/span><\/h3>\n

after a great spot of football (siggimus scoring a record 3 goals!!), siggimus takes jonkurteiz to see xxx rottweiler<\/a> & quarashi<\/a> live in concert<\/p>\n

rottweilers were a wee bit of a dissappointment, didn’t live up to expectations (which were high, btw)<\/span><\/p>\n

but quarashi made up for that & then some (siggimus is even tempted to use the phrase with knobs on<\/em>, so there!)<\/span><\/p>\n

oooooo mama!<\/p>\n

these boys deserve all the success they are enjoying \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

mmm, siggimus remembers way back when, when s\u00f6lvi came into hitt h\u00fasi\u00f0 with a cd & excitedly put it on, proud as a pickle. it was switchstance<\/em>, a new sound in iceland<\/p>\n

what was with all the hot midget chicks?<\/p>\n

xXx [11 september 2002]<\/span><\/h3>\n

invites 400 people to a movie<\/a> \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

erm… according to a few of those, it wasn’t actually a very nice thing to do<\/p>\n

pissing [10 september 2002]<\/span><\/h3>\n

down<\/p>\n

foreign rain<\/p>\n

dej\u00e0 vu! [9 september 2002]<\/span><\/h3>\n

whilst scouting for a wee place to hibernate in for the winter, siggimus comes across a little corner of latvia right in the centre of ole reykjavik<\/p>\n

an old foreign chick speaking broken icelandic way too rapidly for anyone else to understand, shows siggimus into two seperate rooms that eerily resemble some of the palaces siggimus had the pleasure of inhabiting during his stay in otherwise pleasant latvija<\/p>\n

in one room (ca. 5m*1,5m) der was an ugly couch (siggimus uses the word freely) approx. 30 years of age, a tv set & a fairly filthy shower<\/p>\n

siggimus wasn’t quite over da shock of this room when old foreign chick drags him to da other 1: a dusty bed (again, siggimus stretches the english language to its furthest reaches), considerably older than that couch, a wobbly chair, a closet for clothing & a fridge, a kitchen sink & two hotplates all wrapped into one contraption<\/p>\n

siggimus has a moment of sweet nostalgia & considers living in this hole for an instant before overcoming the sensation & being filled with disgust<\/p>\n

small wonder old foreign chick was most eager to rent these two rubblous rooms to a gasping with wonder siggimus<\/p>\n

welcomst [7 september 2002]<\/span><\/h3>\n

jonkurteiz welcomed back<\/p>\n

most can’t be bothered to show up, but siggimus & iluks attend & make jonkurteiz feel welcomed<\/p>\n

iluks’, s\u00f3lon, kaffi list [extremely briefly!] & [insert surprise here] 22<\/p>\n

\ud83d\ude10<\/p>\n

dem’s painted the place in a scary, much brighter colour now!<\/p>\n

now you can actually see all de other people \ud83d\ude10<\/p>\n

hmmmm…<\/p>\n

sub [6 september 2002]<\/span><\/h3>\n

starring<\/a> that icelandic feller, with some foreign dudes supporting<\/p>\n

wrestling mail people [3 september 2002]<\/span><\/h3>\n

for some reason (siggimus suspects insanity, while cia involvement still hasn’t been ruled out), some mail people decided that siggimus doesn’t actually live where he thinks he lives so they start redirecting his mail hither & thither<\/p>\n

some bits went to his last place of residence, which is sorta to be expected, but siggimus has to give them pots of credit for digging out an address that siggimus left early morning may 5th 2000.<\/p>\n

siggimus hasn’t lived there for 1,5 years<\/p>\n

still, the mail people thought it would be exceedingly clever to deliver all his mail there<\/p>\n

mind u, this is only the stuff siggimus knows about<\/p>\n

who knows what sort of correspondance might be puttering about in, say, latvia, being redirected from paltmales iela to that russian plavnieki place to some place else, back to talsu iela?<\/p>\n

who knows, with such creative mail people<\/p>\n

anyhoo, while it did take some convincing, siggimus did at last receive mail today<\/p>\n

go creative iceland mail people!!<\/p>\n
