Time	Event
12:28p	Для egmg@lj, kapahel@lj и некоторых других Christian Morgenstern Korf's clock Korf a kind of clock invents where two pairs of hands go round: one the current hour presents, one is always backward bound. When it's two - it's also ten; when it's three - it's also nine. you just look at it, and then time gets never out of line, for in Korf's astute invention with its Janus-kindred stride (wich, of course, was his intention) time itself is nullified. Palmstroem's clock Palstroem's clock - a different kind - is mimosa-like designed. All requests are kindly heeded: Many times the clock proceeded at the pace that folks were urging - slowing up or forward surging for one hour, or two, or three, as impelled by sympathy. Though a timepiece, it will never stick to petty rules, however. Just a clockwork, slick and smart, yet a clockwork with a heart.

9:44p	Пёс с балкона углового дома на ул. Шфарам, тот самый пёс, которому я как-то объяснила, что он абсолютно прав, теперь всегда приветствует нас стоя. Как только услышит: "Здравствуй, здравствуй, дорогой!" успокаивается и укладывается дрыхнуть дальше. Видели указатель - "К семейству Дятел", слышали, как кто-то неумело трогал пианино за замурованным окном подворья Ратисбон, купили арабский абрикосовый ледер (интересно, как это по-русски?), буду делать марципановых улиток.
