Guitar Craft House Rules
\hiesiger 31. März 2005Honour necessity; honour sufficiency.
Act from conscience.
Nothing is compulsory, but some things are necessary.
No judgements are made: we accept you as you arrive.
There is no mistake save one, the failure to learn from a mistake.
Honour the role, respect the person.
Some people here will irritate you.
Don’t worry: you will also be irritating them.
Please act towards others with goodwill and with courtesy;
Otherwise, be polite.
You are not asked to accept any direction that violates conscience.
You are not asked to passively accept any idea that is presented to you.
Rather, you are invited to test ideas you find surprising, to establish the veracity of those ideas, or not, for yourself.
You are encouraged to adopt a position of healthy scepticism, while participating in a spirit of goodwill.
Please stay outside the kitchen.
Be on the course, to the degree that you are able to honourably bear.
For example, listen to the music generated within the course; telephone when necessary, or when useful.
Avoid listening to, and reading, any non-course material.
Recording during the course is discouraged.
Accept responsibility for your personal space; and that part of the communal space which you own.
If you smoke, please do so outside the buildings.
Please stay within the boundary of the facility for the duration of the course.
If you require something, please ask the House Manager.
Drug use is incompatible with participation in Guitar Craft.
Although nothing is compulsory, this is necessary.
If Robert considers that any person’s continuing participation is detrimental to either that person, or the course as a whole, Robert may ask that person to leave.
If any of this is unacceptable, you are free to leave with a full refund prior to the beginning of the course.
If you decide to stay, you are asked to stay for the duration of the course.

Than to fade away.

At war with myself

It’s no good for my health

So much for being helpful
\hiesiger 29. März 2005Rising at 05.00 & showering in the adjoining shared bathroom, I noticed a ladybird in the bath. To save it from being washed down the plughole, I encouraged it onto a piece of toilet paper from which it land safely on the floor. Then, while getting into the bath myself, I stepped on it. So much for being helpful.

Traurig.
Erste positive Auswirkungen von Hartz IV auf die Wirtschaft
\hiesiger 29. März 2005Der Berliner Kurier vermeldet, dass seit Inkrafttreten der Hartz-IV-Reformen die Öttinger Brauerei einen beinahe kometenhaften Aufstieg in der Rangliste der größten deutschen Brauereien gemacht hätte. Das Bier sei billig, so dass es sich auch viele ALGII-EmpfängerInnen leisten können.
Auch der Spiegel berichtet.
