Oh, mate, oh, websites…

Oh, headache… When I was making the website for the company it looked so cool to make a couple of pages in English and then make the same in Russian. Now I am looking at it with horror. After I complete the rewrite of the site in English, and I plan more than two pages this time, I will have to perform the translation into Russian of all that. Oh, why did I need to do this all in the first place? I do not have and I do not plan to have customers in Russia, why on Earth do I keep a site in Russian? But the funny thing is, once you have the site, you just cannot get rid of it, can you? Oh, no, you are going to keep it running, oh, yes… All right, back to typing the websites… Enjoy your evening in front of TV, please, do.… -->

Kindergarten: silence!!!

I just heard on the radio this wonderful bit of news. Some spokeswoman for one organisation or another, and I did not quite catch the name either, was going on about the music rights and suchlike. I usually do not listen to these things, so I missed the organisation name and the person name but then I got awoken with a start. You know what she is lobbying for? Apparently, kindergartens use music and radio! What a surprise! And the kids in the kindergarten groups listen to those broadcasts or CDs, even dance and sing with them. And that constitutes public broadcasting on the part of the kindergartens! The kindergartens must pay the extra protection money broadcast rights for the use of that music, can you imagine? Well, if this isn’t nuts, I don’t know what is. The fuck-brained morons executives of the music companies apparently think that this is a fair deal. Well, I don’t. And I hope neither do you.… -->
