WBF

Because of mass deforestation it is thought that up to half of the 1200 species of bamboo is almost extinct. The average panda ha a diet consisting almost entirely of bamboo shoots and will eat from 9 to 20 kilos every day. The bamboo only flowers every 20 to 100 years (depending on species) then dies. Because of this the bamboo is vulnerable to deforestation. To save the bamboo we should therefore kill all the pandas.
The WBF(World Bamboo Fundation) is a NGO working to exterminate all pandas. For just $10 000 WBF can buy enough wepons and ammo to exterminate all of the pandas.

 Please see thei campaign "Save the Bamboo"

Calendar of the day

This calnedar is the calendar I made last year. I made an effort to do something new every day for all of advent. It was hard work but I'm quite proud of it.

PLPS*

Many animals suffer from the dangers of deforestation, we have all heard of the faiths of the tiger, the mountain gorilla, the giant panda and the golden lion tamarin. What have all of these animals in common, they are incessantly cute.
There are many animals that are left out of this group even though they are decreasing in big numbers. This is mainly because they are evidently not considererd cute enough to be saved. Among these are the pubic lice, derived of there habitat so cruelly cut down by more and more people, the pubic lice is in dier straits.
This year the people of the PLPS(Pubic Lice Preservation Society) would like you to remember these little critters. Why not adopt one of your very own? At least join our let it grow December.

 The Daily Calendar

This little gem is not only instructive it is also quite good fun. Every day they show how Christmas is celebrated in a different country. It never stops to amaze me how often the celebration of the birth of a jewish is celebrated by eating treyf (not kosher) food and breaking other tennants of the old testament.** I hope this Christmas calendar will bring you cheer however you choose to celebrate.

Christmas mystery

They were about tho hurry on through Europe and even further back into history, when a sheep came running toward them along the road and joined the other sheep. Now they numbered five.

*It Should be said that although there is a rumour going on that the Pubic Leïce are going extinct from "deforestation" this is pure conjecture. We do not have any statistics showing cases of pubic lice because it is usually discovered and treated witout the involvement of doctors. There might be a decline in pubic lice decline as result of grooming but we have no numbers to support this teory.
** My own country is as guilty of this as most.

PETRDJ 

Christmas songs (some under the guise of carols, others, not) are generally played on the radio all day long. At the moment I have a job where I listen to the radio for about 8 hours a day.

My goodness there is a lot of bad music out there, and the poor radio dj's who have to listen to it several times an hour for hours all week.

I can at least change the channel. No such luck for the radio dj. They go through a horrible existence without any chance of relief before mid January. That's why me and the people of PETRDj (People for the Ethical Treatment of Radio Djs) want to give you this little challenge: the next time you hear Whams Last Christmas; turn of the radio and enjoy the silence in sympathy of this magnificent beast.

Cc of the day

Today's Christmas Calendar I try to undo the damage of yesterday's calendar that outed me as an enormous  nerd. To that end I bring you the hobbit calendar. For what else screams coolness than an over interest in all things J.R.R. Tolkien. This is gonna give me all the cred with the bitches.

Christmas Mystery

December 6th

On this day in 343

Saint Nicholas died. This is 1670 years ago and I think that it might be said that this is the day when the story OF St Nicholas actuaaly started. The avtual saint Nicholas of Myra was a really popular saint most famous for his act of giving three daughters of a poor peasant presents of gold on their day of reaching adulthood.
The interesting thing about St Nicholas is that much like Christmas and the Christian religion, or possibly even more so, he has changed to fit the area and time he was told about. Now he is kind, but he has also been dangerous. Now he is purely Christmas symbol but he bears the symbols of his mixing with heathen symbology(The name 'Nisse', the reinder, the minegoblins cap, the mistletoe etc.). Now he is fat but he has also been thin. He has been accompanied with dwarfs, witches, goblins, elves and for some reason black servatns(I'm looking at you Netherlands). In Norwegian Santa isn't even human.
Christianity, much like all human philosophy has changed a lot through the last 2000 years and I'm wondering what it could look like in another 2000 years. Much like Santa I imagine that some parts will be added to, and some parts worn away (hopefully we will at least be rid of the racist depiction of africans, what do you think Netherland?)

Daily Calendar

This Calendar I found by generally searching around. It is possibly the most stylish and definetily the most hip of the calendars in this calendar. Every door in It's a shape Christmas is made by a different designer from somewhere in the UK. Thay are all quite low down and simple, some maybe over simplistic others marvelous in their minimalistic outlook.(after writing that last line I think I shall go wear a beret and smoke a pipe while reading sartre because even I'm a bit neusiated by the pretentiousness of that last sentence.)

Chapter 6 of the Christmas Mystery

"Greatings to you, my child, and welcome to Sjaelland. My name is King Caspar of Nubia"

Can't we...

...just be nice to each other. I know world peace is damn near impossible, but basic friendliness. Come on people, we can do it!
That is all I have for today. See you again tomorrow.

The Calendar of the day

A couple of days ago I talked about Christmas and alcohol and alcoholism. I talked about how drinking ruined lives in several different ways and about the importance of drinking responsibly, especially in front of children. Today I'm showing you a calendar with a sample of whiskey for each day. They are good whiskey's as weel but you might think about the cost of a new liver on the 26th.
In any case I think that a whiskey calendar is quite possibly the best and indeed the worst idea ever.

Christmas mystery Chapter 5

"The trap was probably set for a hare or a fox," he said.
He loosened a cord from the sheep's leg and added, "But now the sheep shall come with us to Betlehem."
