nevertheless, I was able to work my 12h shift today :-( That's not all folks, my girlfriend is visiting her parents for a few days, so I am alone for christmas :-[

To summerise, today at Christmas, I am :

• ill
  
• alone
  
• tired from working
  
  

Yesterday when I was allready alone, I spend my time on some big questions which are allready for a long time on my mind:

Question One:
"There's an old folk warning that if you throw a frog in boiling water he will quickly jump out. But if you put a frog in a pan of cold water and raise the temperature ever so slowly, the gradual warming will make the frog doze happily . . . in fact, the frog will eventually cook to death, without ever waking up." The answer, in english or german

Question Two:
"The jolly old Santa Claus that we know from countless images did not come from folklore, nor did he originate in the imaginations of Moore and Nast. He comes from the yearly advertisements of the Coca-Cola Company. He wears the corporate colors — the famous red and white — for a reason: he is working out of Atlanta, not out of the North Pole." The answer
