Playing chess is mu lust and my life! It gives me joy, it improves my
brains and intelligense, it improves the contact with other people and
it fullfills my sportsmentality!

How am I so smart and others so stupid? I just don't understand sometimes.
I do understand though that people are BAD DRIVERS in Barcelona. Two days ago I was riding my Bycicle up Via Laietana from my flat to work at 9:45 in the morning and was NAILED by a dickass trying to sneak into traffic. Most importantly my bike is okay. Nothing much happened, and I'm just a little shook up, I did though fly across his hood and skid across the pavement. I had only gotten out of bed 20 minutes beforehand, and I was not ready for the chaos that ensued: Being slung like a rag doll onto the sidewalk, being shouted at in Catalan, struggling to break out of the morning fog and the accident haze to bring spanish into the forefront to tell this asshat bad driver that I don't understand his catalan and we have to speak spanish. Which is a struggle as well, just speaking. The worst part though is being stood over and pointed at by an old woman shouting "Sangre! Sangre!" and pointing at the bleeding scrape on my hand.
And for now a forray into the world of webcomics:
Score for using the internet in place of my lack of a sense of humor and creativity.

pffff, who rides a bike? honestly :)
that's harsh man. glad you're alright, that could've been a lot worse.
as far as webcomics go, i recognized all but the last one. xkcd, PA, and QC are all fantastic. i actually got like halfway through all of QC a year ago, but i stopped. i always meant to keep reading but never did for whatever reason. great strip though, nerdy/hipster humor (and that robot cracks me up). xkcd is genius. PA is decent most of the time, but their blog really isn't that interesting imo, they come off as dicks. but w/e, they're the most famous i suppose.
some other ones i read are:
http://www.cad-comic.com
http://gucomics.com
http://www.chainsawsuit.com
http://garfieldminusgarfield.net
http://www.smbc-comics.com
http://seemikedraw.wordpress.com
I should catch up on QC one of these days.
btw, i own adamball.org now :) the web hosting company i work for gives us a free domain and some free web space. there's nothing up there now, but i plan on building a site within the foreseeable future. i have a wordpress installation in a subdirectory. i'm looking to create a personal site and have the wordpress link seamlessly into it as a blog section. it'll be a learning experience, but i'm looking forward to it.
