Magic: The Irony – Vatopedi Monastery
May 10th
Starting today, I’ll be introducing a new hobby of mine to you. The bastardization of Magic: the Gathering cards, with themes taken from my every day life, news and all that Jazz. I don’t expect everyone to “get them” as sometimes their “fun factor” will be very localized, but nevertheless. Let’s begin with the first one from the Orthodoxy Set.
This is obviously inspired by the now old, yet never outdated scandal with the Monastery of Vatopedi and the real estate scandal it was implicated in. The whole Orthodoxy set idea derived from this group on facebook. Stay tuned, as there are more coming =)
Practical example of why Greece is at the brink of bunkruptcy using Starcraft II
May 5th
I’d really love to go into a very deep analysis on how this phenomenon applies greatly to almost every aspect of the Greek market, but I’ll just leave this as an example and a case study.
Plaisio, is one of the biggest computer and consumer electronics retailer. If you ask the average Joe (including me) where he’d go to satisfy his computer buying needs, Plaisio would be the top choice. Now, if you’ve been all living under a rock and don’t know that StarCraft II, Blizzard Entertainment’s hot sequel to the largest selling RTS game ever, has finally a release date on July 27, then go and read all about it, prior to continuing on with this post.
Piece o’ shit car
Feb 18th
3 years ago I decided that my then 10 year old trustworthy Opel Corsa had on the one hand served me well, on the other it was old and did no longer fulfill my needs. It was about time I made the next step into a bigger and faster car. As the Corsa proved to be what we greeks call “a dog”, I blindly went again for an Opel. This time it was a beautiful gray Astra GTC, 1600cc with 115PS, Easytronic transmission (both auto and manual depending on the mood), Sports chassis and a panoramic rooftop.
I went over at Dynamotors and ordered it, gave 3/4ths of the car’s value as advance payment and that’s when the adventure begins. Read on reader.. it’s an exciting story.. I promise!!!

For the past 3 or 4 years I’ve been dreaming of her, but so far I didn’t have the gut to go and make her mine. But now finally, I stepped up… and she’s mine!
I’m talking of course about Sonya, my new Kawai ES6 Digital piano.

Music on the Moon
Oct 22nd
Back in 2007 we composed this little baby with my good friend Amigo to enter Breakpoint’s streaming music competition. Unfortunately we got disqualified in the preselection stage =( Nevertheless, it’s a cool track, so here you go =)

I have a website therefore I exist
Oct 22nd
I’ve had the amusic.gr domain since 1998 (maybe even earlier). In the process I once lost it to domain vultures (who used it to upload porn on it), then got it back and realized that in it’s 11 year history… I never put a website for me on it. Quite a shame…
I always had this plan in my head to build an uber-site for yours trully, and I’ve started making one 4 times so far. The problem of course was that I never finished it. So I decided to go for the sensible solution… Use WordPress and be done with it =)
And so, I welcome you aboard my dome of insanity, where I’ll be sharing with the world, my views, my crap, my projects and of course my music. Brace yourself and I wish you a pleasant stay.
