13.01.11 – Luckily we’ve had some new snow which has covered the “ice rink-like” city sidewalks of Helsinki and makes walking a tad bit easier. If you would have asked me a week ago if I was looking forward to more snow I would have replied with a nasty look. After doubling my “slip and fall” stats for my first Finnish winter, I’m happy to have some fresh powder which is slightly easier to walk on.

Oh yeah, Nordic Walking! I’m not ready for that one!
nothing like a soft landing.
I’m trying to prevent landings all together!
to avoid landing altogether…but that could leave you in a perpetual state of falling…a strange idea. i heard a kinesiologist once describe the act of walking on two legs as form of controlled falling. it was on the Discovery Channel or the Hitler Channel or one of those. he was analyzing, of all things, the infamous Patterson film of 1967, in a study of the odd gait of the alleged Big Foot creature.
wow. my randomness sometimes even startles myself.
The randomness works for me. I’m not sure I’ll go searching for the Hitler channel
