At the lower end of Zinckgasse, on the corner to Felberstrasse close to Westbahnhof, there used to be the restaurant Tartuf which I think served istrian food, not primarily austrian. That was noteworthy. Now a new restaurant seems to have taken over there - called "DOMI & CO's".
The ampersand in the logo reminded me of the street map of the Bastia on Corse - on the map this looks almost like an R (backwards) with rucksack. In this rucksack there is also a circular restaurant which could be reminiscent of Hitler's Flakturn in the atrium ('Stiftskaserne') behind the police station in Vienna where I went after I had lost the rucksack in the Barnabitenkirche. And there is a 'Prefecture de Haute-Corse' etc.
A 'nutcracker' shop has also recently opened on a corner up the street of Zinckgasse.
See also my recent article on Mystic numbers: I discovered today that the indian that developed from my picture of Joyce reading in sofa with rollerskates on - in fact resembles this Corse with the 'bayonet' going up from about Bastia. A highly interesting aspect of this article occurs towards the end of it, a sort of conclusion - the 25 first decimals of the Catalan constant which could contain the innermost secrets of the linguistic semiotics of the human psyche:

News today about a 'prefecture de police.
For a potential relevance of the streetmap of 'Bastia', see also the streetmap of 'Basta' in Beirut.
I should have been in Italy (Venice) over the winter or moved down there permanently but have not much money. If I travel down and stay on a hotel for even only one night, I risk getting ill with covid and then I cannot stay in a hotel or get on a train back (there are temperature controls on the platforms and often test requirements) and must be outdoors. (If they have 'covid hotels' these cost probably 300 per night - or 800 with medical personnel). It means that one cannot travel down there without having a short- or long-term rent of a flat (however small) where one can quarantine and I cannot manage to find that myself, not the least because I probably am under 'service' control and probably would not even get an answer - or my request could arrive only in an unfortunate form. So I would need help from somebody who can offer me a flat which I can afford - but I do not have much money even if probably every state in the world owe me money for illegal plagiarisms. (Could be the problems are rooted just there). In addition, there are restrictions on how long I can be away from my current tenancy agreement and it may be that this is not long time before the law allows ÖVP (or sth like that) to carry my things and manuscripts and poetry notebooks out under legal 'entrümpelung' protection. (Why did I agree to reduced houserent even if the paperbasis is a little weak? It is not permitted to protest if the houserent principle - in a 'wanckel motor' or what's it called - is what drives covid-19 up and forwards - could be this reason I have for (possibly temporarily) reduced houserent could be called 'house & neighbours' - however, I do not agree to use of terror - such as e.g. the bomb in Beirut). It is not possible for me to have more interesting work done in Austria because advertisement on the big outdoor posters are still apparently rooted in my recent work - 2-3 days ago two new ads (for TUI and Uniqa) came up that seemed to relate to my comments - written the day before I first observed these, could be that observation day also was the first day they were up - on my home computer on the chinese signs WO and KUA - based on a 'norwegian' reading of the text of the miraculous medal of 1830 (cp. also the 'por of præs/prær[i]' and the idea of a 'double-bottomed suitcase'). Could be the only possible solution for me is to get a small house for 1,- euro on a sales contract which returns the house to the seller when I exit - and then the seller should preferrably be of a lasting quality, however 'nepali'. Municipalities (not 'funny nepalities') and states are still somewhat lasting, and there exist other solid organizations as well.
At the time of the royal massacre in Nepal on 1 June 2001 I lived in Rinktines street in Vilnius, and if the purpose would have been to turn 'municipalities' into 'funny nepalities', it means that 'Rinktines' could have rewritten into 'tinkrines' or 'take-ringes' = 'ta krigen[s]' = 'take the war' (a la 'ta slagene' with ideas of 'ligg unna kameraten min'?): When I moved into Rinktines in the early spring 2000, I soon read the news that Norway had donated 2 warships to the state of Lithuania who then had a still not so blossoming ecomony. The following year the UK general election was originally planned to be on 7 May 2001, two years after the bombing of the Chinese embassy in Belgrade, but it was postponed with one month due to the outbreak of foot-and-mouth disease, untill election day 7 June 2001. The date for the royal massacre in Nepal (1 june), while the british queen had just ended an official visit to Norway, could be she was even still on the airplane back to England when it happened, would then be one week before the election result could be presented on 8 June 2001, which would be one day after the election: On 8 june in the evening at 21:05 local time a car was pressed off the road by another car just outside my home in Rinktines street one hour exactly before Blair announced Jack Straw as new foreign minister. I don't know what happened there on stage, with perhaps a one minute fumbling with microphones (it was reported in the news from England - I think it was in The Times - the exact time point and the fact that there had been some fumbling with the microphones) and the pronounation of the appr. one second duration name started. Two young people died in the car crash, allegedly while 'rallying' against the other car, as seems to have been the explanation afterwards. I went out and saw one of the cars upside down with a crowd around it, and the other car was parked and it was apparently the driver who stood outside it holding his palm against the top of his head.
The idea of a 'double-bottomed suitcase' could perhaps also be spotted in the story of what happened when I moved from Venice to Vienna in late 2009 and early 2010 (I was shuttling up and down by train a few times, as was the cheapest way of moving my things): In the morning there was the disastrous earthquake of Port-au-Prince on Haiti and when I travelled with night train in the evening, the carriage attendant knocked on the door to my couchette department and it seemed to be Gordon Brown (then PM) who stood there next to her with a suitcase - an oldfashioned doctor's suitcase type - which resembled the one I had in the late 1970's. The combination of these two events could perhaps be summed up in the idea of 'double-bottomed' for the earthquake plus the 'suitcase' of the british PM. (I was asleep when it knocked on the door and I moved to another compartment but I had the feeling that it was not a dream or a 'vision'). I do not know the reason for the earthquake of Haiti but I do not believe that it was because the 'beast of the revelation' was 'changing grounds'.
Why didnt Wittgenstein have his professorship renewed after 8 years? I was in England in 1997-1998 and 2003 and both times had to give up finding a foothold.
