Item # 11: Understanding relativity

Our worldview has been changed forever since Albert's insights on space and time. Or at least for the worldview of those capable of understanding the theory of general relativity...so can anyone explain it to me with simple, understandable, meaningful words? If you have a PhD in Quantum Physics and have some time to spare, get in touch with me. I will listen very carefully to your lecture on e=mc2.

Item # 10: face-à-face avec un cousin

Le singe nasique a quelque chose d'extrêmement humain si l'on considère son appendice nasal qui lui vaut son nom. Cette caractéristique le rend si proche physiquement de nous, êtres humains, qu'un face-à-face avec cet animal doit nous en apprendre beaucoup sur la ligne qui nous sépare de lui (si elle existe). Si vous avez un singe nasique en guise d'animal de compagnie, invitez-moi chez vous pour une séance photo.

Item # 9: dining at Mr.Puliafito's en tete-a-tete

Miam miam miam. Already hungry ;-)

Item # 8: Carmen

"Toreador, prends ga-a-a-arde, toreador, toreadoooor". This opera from Bizet is one of the tunes I continually sing, out of the blue, for no reason but the pleasure of singing. The trouble is that I've known this Opera forever, I trace it back to a CD my dad bought once and that I have lost in the meantime (don't tell him, I've always denied it). I would love to see it on a special stage: Verona. I can also settle down for Avenches and its arena here in Switzerland, it would be a perfect start before seing it in more grandiose location.
