fun
Some things that I did just for the fun of it.
Schnitzelmonster Song
At the General Assembly of the FSFE in Vienna, we went to a restaurant called "Schnitzelwirt" which is famous for its big portions. While several people in our group were not able to finish up their plates, I did not only eat my whole portion - I also continued with eating up what others had left over. After that, Georg Greve created the name "Schnitzelmonster" for me - named after the cookie monster from Sesame Street. This word somewhat became a running joke within the FSFE, and on GNU/Linuxtag in Karlsruhe I finally presented the Schnitzelmonster Song (in German)...

Hacking For Freedom
The "hacking for freedom" slogan on the fellowship T-shirts is so cool that some people (I can't remember exactly, but I think it was Matze and me) had the idea that there should be a fellowship song with that slogan being the refrain. However, all we could come up at that time was singing David Hasselhoff's "Looking For Freedom" with a changed text, and as we all didn't actually like that song, we more or less forgot about it. As I know I would meet all those people again on GNU/Linuxtag in Karlsruhe, I drafted a different "Hacking For Freedom" song. However, the lyrics still contain a lot of TODO's (you can tell I'm software developer, can't you?) and patches are very welcome. (The file is a source file for GNU Lilypond. You might notice that it only contains words and guitar chords, but no melody. That's on purpose. The melody doesn't matter anyway...)
