Faluk goes to the mountains

Faluk found an old pair of mountaneering shoes in his closet. So he decided to give them a test drive. He dug out of the same closet a dusty knapsack, made himself a big sandwich, and took a deep breath.
When he came out of his house, he turned around to choose a suitable hill for his adventure. The nicest hill was a little lump, about 500 metres from where he was standing.
After a short meditation he decided that the final goal of his journey is UP THERE.

Being a young and healthy guy, he souldn't have problems with this walk. But unfortunately that was not so easy.

The sun was VERY strong and there was not much air. So Faluk was breathing like an old train trying to remain on his feet.

But when he finally reached the top all the suffering was forgotten.
The view was glorious. He could see how small his little house is and how irrelevant his problems are.
With a smile on his face, he sat down and ate the yummy sandwich.

Have a nice way back Faluk. Be careful...

the 11th

11 (eleven) is a very important number. And Faluk knows that. It is a prime number. And prime numbers are special.

Today (11th of March), Faluk has found a new problem to occupy him mind.
Is there another prime number (besides 11) that has all the digits equal (e.g. 55, 2222, 7777, 1111). As it can be noticed all the numbers with digits larger than one are obviously not prime. So all we have to do is to check all the numbers with just 1s. Faluk has already found the answer with the help of his little enemy - THE COMPUTER.

Good for you Faluk, it is not a solution that will solve the world, but I guess it must be fun.

The next day

This morning Faluk woke up into a rainy morning with a pinch of snow. He smiled, put on his green trousers and red t-shirt, and walked to the kitchen to have some breakfast.

In the kitchen there was his friend, a pink elephant named Wally, who was desperately waiting for Faluk to wake up.
Faluk: "What is wrong."
Wally: "Well, where should I start?"
F
aluk: "Usually it is good, if you start at the beginning. And please speak fast, because I am quite hungry."
Wally: "The thing is that ..." (looks sadly to the ceiling with tears in his eyes) "oh, nevermind..."
Faluk: "No, no! You are not going to get away with it! Now you got me interested."
Wally: "I came to ask you a BIG favour."
Faluk: "I have no money left, my friend, I spent it all on ... hedonism"
Wally: "
I see. Oh, it was worth to try. I am running now."
Faluk: "
Have a nice day. A big hug to your wife Dolly."
Wally: "
Thanks, pleasant day to you too."

This was the most exciting thing that happened to Faluk today. After the meeting with Wally he had a nice and healthy breakfast, and read the morning news. The news were mostly sad, so he stopped reading and watched the birds for a while. The birds are very happy today. So is Faluk.

The beggining

This is a story about a little boy called Faluk. This boy lives in somebody's brain. But sometimes pops out and lives in the actions of his creator.
Faluk is not a nice little boy and he is also not an evil little boy. He is a blond boy with green eyes, usually wearing a red T-shirt and green trousers. Nobody knows if the trousers have always been green or they became of that colour after years of torture.
Faluk has many things to do. Sleep, eat, relax, dream, dream some more, play, shout, sing, dance. That is why he is very often unreachable. But when he is around, people want to sing, dance, dream, sleep and have fun.
Yes, this is Faluk. And much much more. But maybe he will tell us something more about him a little bit later. Now he is very busy dreaming, and after that he has an appointement with some people. They will have a relax and shout meeting.

Bye Faluk, have a great meeting
