A week ago, „Fasnacht“ (carnival) 2026 in Luzern (Lucerne) Switzerland, entertaining, enjoyable, amusing, laid back.

Wehrenbach (stream of weirs) on the periphery of Zurich city reminds us of pre-electricity days when flowing water directly powered mills and small industries.

Walking on stage, Maestro Sir András Schiff, rated as one of the top-ten pianists ever, salutes musicians of Zurich’s Tonhalle Orchestra during a sublime performance with works of Bach, Beethoven, Lutoslawski and Bartók last night.

H.P. Bäni (L) during his book launch in Zürich tonight. In it, my school-time friend rolls up his career as documentary film-maker for SRF. We met again after 40+ years in 2010, when he covered “Bangkok Burning”, the unrests of that year.

😂 This Scott Adams livestream segment is one of my favorites of all time.

In it, he talks with ChatGPT about a hypothetical movie about election integrity, starring a special character named George Fosilopolopolous😂

You can’t not laugh with this one!

Scott Adams was my mentor for 10 years. During that time, he gave me insights into the American mindset that are not widely known worldwide. He was also a good teacher of analysis and forecasting. He will be greatly missed by many. Mike Cernovic called Adams' death a great loss for America. I wholeheartedly agree. RIP Scott Adams.
