I'm still working out the nuts and bolts, if you will, of this blog-thingy. For a member of the tech generation who's parents are engineers that can totally create their own computer programs and spy on others via trails carelessly left on their computer, I am not as skilled at this as I should be. ,
So this entry title is reminding me of Attempto, which in the Latin means "attempt" and which happens to be the motto of a certain German university I heart, Tübingen (oh yeah, check out that umlaut action!). I have a picture of it somewhere. Not to digress, but one thing that saddens me about the Interwebs is that you loose a lot of dramatic pausing - which I also heart. For example, I can't really type "Just a minute while I go find the picture"and then have you wait at the edge of your seat, drowning in agonizing anticipation of what majesty I could possibly unveil. I mean, I could do that, but let's face it, where's the drama that I love oh so very much? You can just scroll down at look at the picture.
*sigh* Just go head and look at the picture all ready! *grumblegrumble*No one appreciates presentation anymore *crochtycomplaining* Gaze upon it's Schönheit!
Attempt. I think that's a good motto. We made not succeed but we will at least attempt. But than I suppose it depends on what you're attempting. Attempting to invent the light bulb, pretty much a good thing and you may even get some other inventions out of your failures. Attempting to start World War Three*, not necessarily so much.
Aaaaanyway. This post ended up being way longer than I planned. It's the magical allure of Tübingen, don't ya know.
*Funny story. Maybe I'll post it one day.
