You are the Hanged Man

Self-sacrifice, Sacrifice, Devotion, Bound.

With the Hanged man there is often a sense of fatalism, waiting for something to happen. Or a fear of
loss from a situation, rather than gain.

The Hanged Man is perhaps the most fascinating card in the deck. It reflects the story of Odin who offered himself as a sacrifice in order to gain knowledge. Hanging from the world tree, wounded by a spear, given no bread or mead, he hung for nine days. On the last day, he saw on the ground runes that had fallen from the tree, understood their meaning, and, coming down, scooped them up for his own. All knowledge is to be found in these runes.

The Hanged Man, in similar fashion, is a card about suspension, not life or death. It signifies selflessness, sacrifice and prophecy. You make yourself vulnerable and in doing so, gain illumination. You see the world differently, with almost mystical insights.

fryathon 2007 redux

Oh well, fryathon 2007 kinda went bust. We did 2 nights of frying and that was about it. Oh well, there's alway fryathon 2008!

For an better on going holiday (season) it is also Winter-een-mass. The gamer holiday!

Fryathon 2007

So we have decided to start a new tradition, my roommates and I, the fryathon. On the first week of a new year, we fry at all meals (dinners). If not everything, at least something. Tonight we did a full fry, tempuraed chicken, green beans, mushrooms, asparagus and broccoli. To finish it off we deep fried (also in tempura) a snickers bar and a three musketeers bar. It was all awesome. My first time to have the fried candy bars, I am pleased... ;)
