Potato Priest vs. the Egg

It was waiting for him, quivering, in the badlands at dawn.
He feared it - feared that unspeakable yolk, that glistening white - but he had learned to conquer the fear. He was a monk. He had recited the seven mantras and performed the eighteen meditations, and he was as ready as one could hope to be.
He searched his heart and found only the emptiness of enlightenment, and so he faced it boldly, this lightly fried horror, this sunny-side-up invader from beyond the stars.

Soon, one of them would have breakfast.

00Egg - licence to hatch

Bond must investigate the murder of a fellow agent who was clutching a priceless Faberge egg at the time of his death. The trail leads to the mysterious Octopussy , whose travelling circus features a company of luscious, athletic women. Bond and Octopussy share a passionate attraction, but soon 007 discovers that the elegant Kamal Khan is working with a mad Russian officer to hurl mankind into World War III! As Bond tries to stop the nightmarish scheme, his exploits will include a riveting chase through the streets of India, a deadly brawl on top of a speeding train, and a breathtaking mid-air knife fight on an airplane wing.

La Poule aux Œufs d'Or


L'avarice perd tout en voulant tout gagner.
Je ne veux, pour le témoigner,
Que celui dont la poule, à ce que dit la Fable,
Pondait tous les jours un œuf d'or.
Il crut que dans son corps elle avait un trésor.
Il la tua, l'ouvrit, et la trouva semblable
A celles dont les œufs ne lui rapportaient rien,
S'étant lui-même ôté le plus beau de son bien.
Belle leçon pour les gens chiches:
Pendant ces derniers temps combien en a-t-on vus
Qui du soir au matin sont pauvres devenus
Pour vouloir trop tôt être riches ?


I'd like to have such a hen ! I think I won't kill her, even to have a good chocolate meal !

Egg in London ?


"30 St Mary Axe, also known as the Gherkin and formerly the Swiss Re Building, is a skyscraper in London's main financial district, the City of London, completed in December 2003 and opened on 28 April 2004. It is 180 meters (591 ft) tall, with 40 floors. Its construction symbolised the start of a new high-rise construction boom in London. The building's name is its address, St Mary Axe being the street it is on. The building was designed by Lord Norman Foster."
Egg shaped.... or maybe not.....
"The gherkin [(French cornichon) is a small cucumber type vegetable] name dates back to at least 1999, referring to that plan's highly unorthodox layout. Due to the current building's somewhat phallic appearance, other inventive names have also been used for the building, including the Erotic Gherkin, the Towering Innuendo, and the Crystal Phallus."

Linz, European Capital of Culture 2009

In 2009, Linz is the European Capital of Culture and a host within Europe.

The capital of the Province of Upper Austria is situated astride the Danube. With a population of 190,000, Linz is Austria's third largest city and links the Mühlviertel region that stretches north to the Czech border with the rolling hills that extend to the Austrian Alps in the south. The Linz Metropolitan Area is the hub of a thriving regional economy; the number of jobs in Linz exceeds the city's population. Here, technology, industry and high ecological standards are no contradiction: Linz is one of Austria's most environmentally-friendly communities with green spaces making up 60% of the city. Linking up industry, culture and nature will play an essential role in the Linz09 programme.
