The liberal factions of the Vatican dreamt of it, Japan did it !

With 500 million users worldwide and counting (one every twelve people currently living on the planet), I wonder how much longer I can last being one of those weird people who stubbornly refuse to go (back) to Facebook (and give away my personal information for free to the american secret services -- or to anybody for that matter, given their recent bugs).

Actually I have found a neat trick: I automatically redirect all the friendship invites directed to me to Aubrey's account. Genius!

Over the past few years, Aubrey has gone from being cute, to beautiful and she is now gorgeous...

I kept wondering "what was she thinking of ?...", but knowing her, maybe she was just doing that thing that people don't do any more: paying attention.

Happy 5th year anniversary to Aubrey and Pascal. Yes, today is the fifth year anniversary of Aubrey and I going out together. Five years, I can believe it! This is a little video of what she looked like at the beginning, back in our university accommodation (^.^)

(She was still young and innocent on that video, but nowadays, she has grown into a full half Tiger, half Femme Fatale. In all cases, you don't want to mess with her, otherwise she will kick your ass twice before you even realise that something did happen to you...)

When I came back from work today, I decided, for the sake of my own SF education, to Google for Battlestar Galactica, so I could learn more about it. I quickly noticed the following picture





... and kept thinking "that's funny, I have already seen this somewhere!". Quick search on the weblog and I found that entry (a weblog entry that I wrote 17 months ago!), with the following picture





That's really funny because while writing my previous entry on Grace Park, I actually kept thinking that there was something similar between Aubrey and that Korean girl, and I am not only talking about their body, but something else... Probably my mind had made a connection that my conscience was was aware of yet.





Now, I only need to find that polystyrene swimsuit, and take another picture of Aubrey.... (^.^)


Incidentally I have always thought that even though I don't know them precisely, there must be extremely precise rules governing the fact that I like a girl or not (I mean physically), probably the same rules, or same patterns which govern my taste in art, in music, and also which of the daily deviantArt [deviantart.com] pictures I like or not.

Maybe one day I should go through something like 10,000 dA pictures from random subjects, take the 100 ones I like the most and try and find a common pattern or characteristic.

I think I have almost found the rules for my taste in music. I think I could teach to someone to recognise with a very high degree of accuracy which music I like. I am not talking about something as inaccurate as "I like classical and dislike everything else". In my case, it is not about the genre, not about the country or origin, not about specific singers or any of those basic ways of classifying music (this is the main subject of arguments between me and iTunes for instance...). In every genre, in every artist, there are some I don't like and some I that like, and I know that all those I like share a common pattern. I have never tried to put it in writing because it would not fit to be described with words. It's really something one would have to hear.

Coming back to girls, even though I have not given much thoughts to it yet, I have heard a couple of my ex girl friends at uni (in Paris) claim that they had figured out the rules of my liking in girls. So I guess that it should not be so difficult for me to actually figure out....

In all cases, I already know that the rules governing my overall taste (in girls, pictures, music, etc.), are extremely self centred, they all say something specific about me. I guess that some of those rules might even hold the keys to some key aspects of my personality, and also some of the key things I want to say to the world.

Anyway, what was I doing already ? Ahh yes, Battlestar Galactica ...

Facebook is the ultimate marriage saviour. Yes, ladies and gents, I am not making this up ! The proof ? Got the following on my wall just right now :-)

I thought it was a male-only thing, you know, a "person who keep thinking about sex and sex"-only thing (which men at good at), but as a scientist I thought I would convey a correct experiment on Aubrey.

So I called her and asked her in order

1. Find something interesting about this picture.
She kept looking at it, but after 10 seconds didn't find anything special (maybe her brain so try to figure out which brand of make up the front girl was using), so then I asked...

2. Find something interesting about the girl in the back ground.
After two seconds, she started blushing, I knew she did find the thing, but then just when she was about to leave thinking that was all there was to it, I asked

3. Look at the right arm of the girl who is taking the picture.
It took her few second but then I saw that she was unblushing quickly while looking increasingly embarrassed.

So it wasn't me only (^.^)

No wonder why she calls me "cold blooded" ...

Yesterday I did hurt Aubrey. .. well, not directly, it was a result of that thing called Gravitation.

Turns out that we where both sitting at my desk, while she was also sitting on my feet (I'll do a picture later), and about the end of the first episode of season six of South Park, I started laughing so much that I fell down my own chair, propelling her in the air in a parabolic trajectory just the right shape to send her landing on the floor.

Collateral damages:
- Wife with some pain in the arse (literally).
- Green tea split all over my keyboard.
