Angel Footprints With Wings



" THINGS YOU SHOULD KNOW ALL PASSENGER Before stepping AN AIRPORT! "


Second edition.


Passport, ticket, ticket, ticket or different names, and silver. Those are the main things that every passenger must have. Without them it's practically impossible to take a plane with some international itinerary.


But we split.



Passport.


According to the dictionary of the Royal English Academy. Passport is:

1 .- A license or written release is given in order to move freely and safely in a town or country to another.

2.-license given to the military, to route to that where they attend with accommodation and baggage.

3 .- free license or freedom to run something.


For what concerns us, we go with the first meaning. "A license or written release is given in order to move freely and safely in a town or country to another."


Every passenger must have a passport. It identifies all cardholder data that supposedly needs to pass freely through international ports. A passport must bear at least the following Information: Citizenship, legal permit or exit and entry to the country of origin, date of issuance and expiration. The passport can be issued by the embassy or consulate-country-of which the holder is a citizen or, in very special cases, by international bodies, such as UN.


The International Civil Aviation Organization ( ICAO ICAO or corresponding to International Civil Aviation Organization its acronym in English) is a UN body responsible for set standards for passports and other travel documents.


So far so nice and even ideal, but we'll practice.


The passport has become a currency in this world so "bobalizado" and no longer gives the power to move freely and safely in a town or country to another. Passing the buck and avoiding complicate my life, I focus.


Already, before the guy September 11, 2001, removed or have a passport has been complicated. Criminal organizations have evolved directly proportional to existing technologies, the counterfeits are becoming more perfect, with the corresponding problem for the airlines, and we all pay for the sins.


Therefore, to avoid counterfeit passports and have any number of gadgets and information, according to the possibilities of the BCV, which science fiction, little details that I can not, I should not mention . Say you are secrets and so I avoid the odd problem. In any, and because they are already known, I limit myself to two of them:


Biometrics: Since the fingerprint through the geometry of the face and the imprint of the iris. Everything is worth to verify that the carrier or the carrier of the document is the rightful owner of the passport. All this information is inserted into a Travel Document Machine Readable (MRTD). Everything is possible to increase the security and authenticity of the document. Many countries, together States have introduced additional safety measures crucial in response to the threat of global terrorism. This individual biometric information can also be stored in a database or an identification card authenticate a visa-free travelers will be revised prior to the entry form. visa now the little word name ... then again so wonderful word play.


API: Advance Passenger Information, this system allows airlines to electronically submit a passenger list with data from passports, to the respective customs , immigration offices and other authorities in the destination. This information enables supposedly to border officials to process the information about passengers prior to arrival flight. Which allows the arrival of our flight, meet friendly staff at the door of the plane, with a wonderful geographical formation, and that confused Geneva Geneva, Switzerland ... Sweden, for example.


now and avoiding the above, a passenger should know the following about PASSPORT:


"Your passport must be force before, during and after their stay at the place of destination. "Tomorrow I have a flight to" Oeufqcefqwoeu " ... my passport is expired, you can help me? What I can do? ". is not the first time this happens at an airport, especially on a Friday afternoon and in high season.


"Your passport must be, as far as possible, in good condition and / or care. Avoid washing, for example.


-Ensure that the name you have in your passport that you use and in all documents. Let me explain. In our Western world, Mr. Perez is Perez Perez is written and pronounced in most cases, Perez. The problem is compounded when you have a name like: Nkapnangnjapndoukematagnigni. Imagine, if by chance, that you go to the states combined and has, in your passport, all his letters. By the way, I swear by all the wigs of the late Celia Cruz that name exists, not an invention of my warped mind.


Friend Passenger Passenger Amiga ... take care of your passport. Do not flush and very important data stored in a safe place. The alien's friends are always there, avoid, insofar as possible, its importunate visits. Elevate the odd photocopy and before them by cities, by country of destination ... usually in hotels have safes. Leave on good support. It avoided some drawbacks.


If your passport is not legal ... do yourself a favor. Throw it away, destroy it and find one legal. Avoid travel problems or not, life is beautiful and not worth the complicated life ... you?


Last thing ... the whores visas.


VISAS


Visas are, and not complicate our lives, giving us permits a country different from ours, to be in their territory. Usually there is a kind of reciprocity between countries that are requested visa. Sure ... in the states together are nothing, they are the country and others simply are the others.


Returning to the subject. There are several types of visa with the resulting characteristics are:


Transit Visa : serves for a person who is to call in a country and then go to another, can stay on this scale. Usually a maximum of 3 days. In the United Together is better to have a tourist visa. Avoiding the wonderful treatment of educadísimos border police. The New York and Miami are heavenly.


Tourist Visa: For people who want to visit that country for the purpose of meeting him, as a tourist, not allowing the person supposed to do business inside the country to which they visit or work on this, just spending money. You usually have durations between 1 and 6 months.


Working Visa: only for work purposes if and when a company hires destination country for such purposes. Is more extensive in time and renewable.


Student Visa: For the purposes of a person who is enrolled in an educational center of the country. As the name implies, is a visa to study in that country. Some are lucky to have this visa for life. They are always studying. I mean ... forever.


Diplomatic Visa: To persons holding a diplomatic mission to visit that country for diplomatic purposes such as official visits by leaders, or effects of the embassy. They are what I call " Now these, now are not" . Holders of this visa, are sometimes unbearable. Most gods in this world of vulgar mortals. Sometimes I wonder, to see them, to treat them ..., is that they are of another material, do not go to the bathroom, do not sweat? Poor beings with a stool sad power. Fortunately not all, there are some, so humble, give you lessons in life and that, always, is appreciated. But, but, but, but ... there are others.


Journalist Visa: For those who exercise the profession of journalism, to exercise their profession for a long time sporadic, to cover certain events that are taking place in that country, relevant or research nature.


Marriage Visa : For those who enter into marriage with a person possessing the nationality of the country. Peter Weir time guided Gérard Depardieu and Andie MacDowell in this comedy, Green Card, back in 1990 ... I remember and smile is inevitable.


can also differentiate between entry visas and exit visas:

Entry visa: is an authorization to attend an immigration office of country of destination, and request formal entry there (it is important noted that the mere possession of a visa does not guarantee entry into the country, this can only be decided by the immigration officer and they usually say a subtle NO! ). It is a form of governments to control the movement of foreigners. These visas are of two types: the passport, allowing access to a country for a visit of a definite period, and immigration, involving an authorization to reside here permanently. The latter required many more requirements, it is often difficult to obtain.

Visa out: some countries is the require their citizens when they wish to travel abroad. Visa is required for the abandonment of a country in political, social or economic environment. Examples. Many, you understand me, right?

Whatever the type of visa, you must monitor their maturity dates, in any case should also be reported, previously, the requirements to be followed if for any reason we must extend our stay in the country to which travel . Our friend Murphy comes when least expected.


All the best for you.

Hollywood Wax Tearing



Maiquetía Oct 2008 010


In the fifties, sixties and seventies of air travel was all a ritual. Was to demonstrate, the "other" mortal status, social position, economic and, why not, a policy that is owned. Were those bizarre pilgrimages to the airport, long goodbyes, the feigned exhaustion, some annoyance, was to sow a little envy and all that it meant. It was an absurdity who's who with their own rules, which to be met, rules written anywhere, tacit ways of being that gave their patterns, their laws. It showed up in dress to wear.



for them: your best tailored suit, usually dark, shiny shoes, slicked quietly, taking a perfect knot "Windsor" -ties for light, for the point is being called "Four in Hand" -. Completing the effect, in a trench coat neglect. Likes of Cary Grant or Alfred Hitchcock chubby.


For them, things get complicated: By day, a two-piece suit, neutral color, with a respective bag and shoes for tone, Dior, Louis Vuitton, Hermès and Gucci? - and, for the most daring, their respective very wide brimmed hat, a pamela-name comes, of course, the protagonist of a novel of the same name by Samuel Richardson who wore a hat of that type. For evening, a stunning and sober dress dark three quarters, wearing a discreet brooch, usually on the heart, denoting an entire "azulístico" tree. If there is no snap, the usual string of pearls. As a climax wearing those hairstyles impossible to lac DNA-millimeter or those casual and even in the tropics, a heavy fur coat. Imitations of Jackie Kennedy and Doris Days according to the tastes and possibilities.


Say all that glamor is lost, and still do not know if it's for better or for worse.


Traveling by plane, it has been lately, the most popular, and here I am nothing original. Now he travels almost getting out of bed, I mean, almost in pajamas. Passengers arrive to barefoot, his hair anyway and, horror of horrors, without washing off an odor and would like to if a skunk.


Convivo, for a while, with people that the airport, and everything that has to do with it, means more than just a job, have a real passion and you end up infected.


Just an anecdote:


was the early nineties of last century, in Caracas. Attended a dinner where the only thing not working for the aviation environment was me. I became the guest of stone, oddly enough, hardly spoke all night. The table became, for me, in a tennis match. I nearly dislocated his neck from looking from side to side. Passed by the table reservations, connections, equipment, passengers and destinations, visas, airports, airlines, hotels. To make a long story short, the end of the meal, David, a crew member of the then world's best airline, Swissair, "divine times! - Took out some chocolates with coffee and the last straw. The chocolates were shaped like airplanes.


I clear?


One of the favorite subjects of all the unions, are the passengers. That kind of human being transmuted into something human figure but that does not belong to the race. Sweet old ladies who suddenly gives you the baton, executives glare. Terribly mothers mothers, young people who want to travel but do not know where. Very thin girls with tiny bags of more than eighty kilos ...


now approaching with giant strides, Christmas. This follows one of the terrifying moments in airports, the other is the summer holidays. Thousands of passengers flooded the hallways of all airports worldwide. For these latitudes, Christmas also means snow. In other words I hated skies. If in summer, dear passengers traveling with their bikes in the winter come with their respective skies. Touch me and fight with various monsters with heavy hats, coats and scarves.


take years to learn any number of stories, more than ten years corridors, gates, several airports and flights give me the support to about them, my beloved passengers.


A little history:


On my first trip to Europe, Cristina, a friend who worked at the Maiquetia International Airport, Caracas, I became aware of the 3P. All things necessary to make any air travel. Ie. Passport, ticket and money. Everything else is secondary.


But, my friends, things have changed since then.

All the best for you.

Does Masterbation Causes Dark Circles



Sometimes we are in hands, comes without asking permission and install within us saddens us, it becomes part of us, moves us, makes you wonder with our feelings, our pain, relaxes us, stimulates us.


acts upon our psyche, manage our anxiety and even our mood can change, because it becomes a balm. Has all the ability and leads to moments of euphoria and even has the gift of pain relief. Of producing pleasure and magnify the moments when she is present.


large extent that we wake up every emotion that we put the checkered life, we assume grandiose, which is more or less beautiful, that it is abstract, dark depends, for a change of mathematics.


She, my friends, of whom I write is the lady that perfumes my days since I have reason and caution if not beyond. She is the Lady Music.


These five dashes, and horizontal equidistant, we call staff, are like a big mathematical formula that a being called a musician, put the factors, which are the notes and distributed at will-allegedly-beats, rhythms, melodies, scales and silences.


One of our headaches in adolescence, The Lord Pythagoras was the first to establish the relationship between music and mathematics. He realized that the melodies could be measured by reason of integers. Found that there was a relationship between tones and harmonics sounding string instruments sounded good because the distance between a rope from the other.


Pythagoras found that by dividing a string in the middle produced a sound that was an octave higher than the original (C to C above), that when the ratio was 2:3 there was a fifth (the distance from C to G) and other nice sounds produced simple reasons. If we keep dividing proportions gives the harmonic series. The simultaneous presence of these same sound frequencies gives the color and perceive it as a ringtone depends on the amount of harmonics that has a sound and intensity of each of them. The Pythagorean followers and fans of that era, there are always geeky- The Pythagoreans did not know of sound waves or frequencies or how the anatomy of the ear affects the loudness of a sound. In fact, the rule that the frequency is related to the length of the rope was not made until the seventeenth century when the Franciscan, "and we ran, when not with the church, Brother Marin Mersenne, identified some rules on the frequency of a vibrating string. Rules for tuning, still used today.


These proportions are those that define most of the scales and tunings that exist in the various world music. Even among different cultures There is a wide variety of types of scale, the fact is that there are also a number of similarities. Which suggests that music far removed, geographically and historically, underlying universal principles based on mathematical concepts.


concepts such as symmetry, geometric shapes, mathematical proportions governing many artistic creations of man and give it its beauty. The dance, for example, involves a more dynamic view of world proportions. In mathematics it is manifested as processes, software development in action. Many compositions flirt with geometry, number patterns and frequencies.


Throughout history and across cultures, mathematics and art have to be deeply related. The beauty of a rose, a sculpture of a Bach fugue ser'ia no such without the mathematical principles they embody. Unconsciously we react to these mathematical relationships still do not understand, are a universal language that man has been served, be served and will serve to create.


Last September 15 marked one year since someone had the bad taste of leaving this life. That someone is none other than Aldemaro Zerpa Romero. A Aldemaro not it can be cataloged as a musician, a specific gender. You can not be referred to as folk, although his New Wave is based on the replacement of the harp, maracas four by the trio of piano, keyboards, bass and drums. Nor is it strictly a popular musician, yet his music is heard on radio by various singers and versions, as well as it can not be called an academic composer in the classical sense. He was all and none. Aldemaro in the three areas with its own light shine, expanded and developed an enviable career. Furthermore, analyzing the musical movement of late twentieth century Venezuela, their work can not be located in any stream, hence its great. You can not be called "Pre-Nationalist" as his academic work does not originate in the nineteenth century, is not part of the "National School, from which came Antonio Estévez, Evencio and Gonzalo Castellanos, Inocente Carreno, and lead Vicente Emilio Sojo teacher. Much less current in contemporary musical where Federico Ruiz, Luis Morales Bance, Juan Carlos Nunez, AlfonsoTenreiro, Alberto del Monaco, etc ..., it appears much Aldemaro before.


An unusual case in the Venezuela Symphony Orchestra for decades Aldemaro music was outlawed as it was disconcerting to the founders of it, that the Venezuelan musician most internationally exhibited no formal training. It is, well, ironic that one of the most beautiful Venezuelan waltzes and, critics say, the best compound in Venezuela is his "De Conde a Principal." Therefore, Aldemaro is unique, a self-taught musician that can not be placed in any stream and at the same time, is in all things. A musician composer, performer, arranger and performer who has influenced musicians, academics and / or popular, in recent years in Venezuela.



"The Bird seen and developed by Aldemaro Romero"



The joropo say joropo and causes me a problem. If I say that is a typical musical air Venezuela, I think an insurmountable problem with my Colombian friends since they also take it as theirs. Finally, and praying that the stars will guide me, the joropo is a typical genre Colombo-Venezuelan Llanos of complex structure, has a devilish pace 6 / 8 reaching a limp 3 / 4 and up to 3 / 2 , and is one of the most disconcerting rhythms to those who have studied the academic music.


allegedly derived from the fandango, but here I generated another problem. In authorities dictionary, published in six volumes by the Real Academia in 1735, defines fandango as "dance made by those who have been in the kingdoms of the Indies, which makes the sound of a ringing very happy and lively" . In this sense I leave the baton to the academics, the fact that the fandango was such in the eighteenth century academic composers such as Padre Antonio Soler, author of the famous "Fandango" and Domenico Scarlatti, who created the "Indian Fandango" , we demonstrate its importance in the social area at the time.


Back to our latitudes and not lose the thread. The joropo, besides being also a very attractive dance-The valsiao, the escobillao and shoe ... a long topic for another blog, who dares? -. Say the joropo, from the musical point of view, is as mestizo as ourselves. In the strings of the harp, the cuatro and the mandolin, in addition to his verse -tenths and the verses, we see the European presence. In the fierce and fun melody, could be the contribution of African and stamped with the maracas, the Indian baskets.


The joropo, Venezuela, is an incredibly broad genre. To further complicate the matter, is also derived in different ways depending on the region of the country. Joropo Plains, Central Joropo tuyero Hit-and-Joropo East Joropo Guiana.


joropo uncomplicated long as we have in Venezuela: Six law Zumba Zumba, Periquera, Carnival, Gabon, Chipola, Quirpa, Guacharaca, Corrido, San Rafael, Revuelta tuyero, Six to Yaguazo, Guabina, Los Cantiles Volvona Row, Double Veil, Cubanero, Jack Enmochilao, Llavajero, Six Guiana Josa, Marisela, Six numerao, Pasaje, Catira ... the most refined would l E-Bird.


The Bird ... Aldemaro I leave here, just him and his work may explain much better than my words.


First "Bird " . Aldemaro version made directly from the folklore, the first disc "New Wave" . Voices: Maria Elena Pena, Zenaida Riera, José Ramón Angarita and Ali Agüero.


Second. "Pajarillo" hermosísima with the voice of Maria Teresa Slaughter , the letter of Manuel Graterol Santander, arrangements and direction of Aldemaro Romero with the London Philharmonic.


Third. "Escape with Bird " Suite for Strings. Inglés Chamber Orchestra. Aldemaro Romero directs. Joropo gown.


Fourth. "Escape with Bird." Version Camerata Criolla and reviewed by the same Aldemaro. Live recording from the Teatro Teresa Carreño, June 2002. Fusion of academic music and most genuine of Venezuelan folklore. The work of the strings is a must, and according to Ali Aguero excellent.


Fifth, "Toccata and Bird Bachiana Aldemaro" , Orquesta Sinfónica Gran Mariscal de Ayacucho, director Rodolfo Saglimbeni. Live recording thanks Juanpa. It is all my favorite birds of Aldemaro. The strings are heavenly and metals are to be out of breath for a month. In some passages of the Toccata reminds me of the orchestration, which was to Leopold Stokowski Toccata and Fugue in D minor BWV 565 by Johann Sebastian Bach for the Walt Disney film Fantasia. Collaboration that brought more than a headache for the director of the Philadelphia Orchestra. The purists attacked again and not spared Stokowski orchestration of original sheet music for Organ Bach-tubular-a philharmonic orchestra. Time has proved right since every orchestra that plays such an arrangement is appreciated.


This post is not only to remember that there is a Venezuelan named Aldemaro brilliant musician, is an excuse to give all Venezuelans living abroad, a piece of ours.

intimate is also my gift to my "4 Cats" and, above all, my beloved Empress of China, who had a birthday and waiting for me, I hope not smoking opium, in Shanghai.


All the best for you.

Chest Painful And Constricted



The child's father.

Julio 2008 Paris, Cracovia, Varsovia y Berlín 199


"We are all equal but some are more equal than others" , said my grandmother, "The Philosopher" ... of course, back then, I did not understand.

happens and it happens very close to my home in one of the very modest hotels around Lake Leman, those who collect galaxy of stars in its pediment, presented an unusual scene. Completely out of tune screams meantime marble, draped Lange & Söhne little watch, diamond necklaces, necklaces that seem anatomical subtlest and miles of silk.

The address of the Hotel President Wilson, so unusual, she called the police because one of his exquisite suites came such nonsense.

And the police arrived. Upon entering the suite met a Tunisian woman, a Moroccan, completely beaten, attacked. After clarifying that "no kid gloves" for celebrities, the Swiss authorities proceeded to arrest, nothing more and nothing less than Hanibal Gaddafil.

Hanibal Gaddafi

Gaddafil Hanibal, youngest son of Libyan revolutionary leader, had assaulted two of his servants. Along with Hannibal was his wife, Aline, nine months pregnant. They were in Geneva waiting humbly, the birth of their child .*

After two nights in prison, and after paying 300,000 euros bail, Hanibal Gaddafil flying back to Libya on Thursday 17 July. Asish her sister, lawyer, was presented in Geneva to warn biblically: "We will apply the policy of eye for eye, tooth for tooth"

To close the gossip, domestic workers, since that day, found unaccounted for, protected, with all that that entails, from the Swiss authorities.

This whole story is worthy Hola or a vulgar chronicle of events, but has become an entire diplomatic problem, involving the Quai d'Orsay, the Foreign Ministry French government. Last week the Swiss government acknowledged the existence of "a crisis" . The reason for this crisis is to be found on the side of Tripoli, where during the week an escalation of reprisals arising from the arrest of the young Gaddafi has continued to increase against the Swiss embassy.

A pair of Swiss citizens are being held in Libya accused of "immigration illegal . Both have been denied access to consular protection. Have canceled two-thirds of the flights between Libya and Switzerland. Suddenly requiring a visa to Swiss citizens and it is likely to suspend shipments of oil and gas. Rumor of the withdrawal of Libyan accounts in Swiss banks, the ban on Swiss-flagged ships that can be illogical, there are docking at ports-of Libyans and a few relevant etcetera.

LIBYA SWITZERLAND

course, all this back to normal, if the Swiss government has "Formal apology."

For m erce Chevalier, spokesman for the French Foreign Ministry, announced that Paris "observed this situation very carefully" , and warned the Libyan authorities "consequences negative effects of this escalation could be for everyone ". The Swiss government, "Swiss" , trust out of this nonsense. The President of the Swiss Confederation, Pascal Couchepin, announced on July 28 his intention to meet his Libyan counterpart. "Please do not condemn, but to find a solution to this situation."

Around here, summer is almost pornographic. Geneva is preparing to celebrate, from 31 July to 10 August, its annual "Fêtes de Genève" , which I have called "The Feast of the cloth." me explain. Geneva has been flooded with any number of women, black sheets, with the majority, covering everything sinful, thousands of yards of fabric walk as stains, like shadows across the city. They, their owners, are to dress according to the heat and summer. Them with amazing big eyes and red lips, with that heavy mop and unlikely earrings, that's not counting any number of children and their strollers.

All my feminist friends died, like fish out of water, if they saw such a spectacle.

Big money runs, vulgar and shameless, in the world. The double standard is paid in euros, dollars, diamonds, oil - to 100 dollars a barrel offered Chavez to Spain. All forgotten, and franelita smile, which showed AlóPresidente yesterday. By the way was given to the King for nothing more and nothing less than Bush. What, no? - stained glass, gold, Swiss francs and favors skin.

Having seen, I think some of them enjoy their role ..., reality or even beyond me, at my age-I have the tools and accept some things. To complain about, living in the city of tolerance. Samuel P. Huntington already said. The clash of civilizations strikes again, and I live in the middle of it.


All the best for you.



* Staying in the imperial suite of the Hotel President Wilson in Geneva, Switzerland, costs a whopping $ 33,000. The world's most expensive rooms, according to the Guinness Book of Records, has an elevator, four bedrooms with views of Lake Geneva, a study room, a dressing room, a lounge with pool table, library and a room for a drink, among other princely luxury. Viva revolution.

Bridge Building Train Game



is not easy to write about him, indeed, I have more than three months of trying, thinking what to write. No remedy the muses, memories, anecdotes do not agree. So many moments, many moments and to discover another nuance of the word love.

is to see and enjoy, how he puts his face red apple. His shy and nervous smile mischievous look. His eyes, his look that I love, which never ceases to fascinate me, for more than 30 years.

And here I am, as I write, reminding smiling in different areas of their lives, their skin, shining and it looks fake. Of as her voice and her smile was changing wisdom acquired over the years.

Once I make up as clown costume that all dream ever wear or use. I remember sitting on a sideboard, while waiting, just deadly, they gave me those costumes libérrimos Galician pipers, what you do for a mother.

_Disculpe, but where he bought that doll?

and asked a local lady was silent. As if the weather decides to get a break.

_Cuál doll? replied the owner of the premises, with great curiosity and even shocked by the absurdity of the question.

_Ese ...

Suddenly he heard the cry of the inquisitive lady, when she realized, that this clown was just a kid, absolutely catatonic.

It has been there since childhood.

Like any human relationship, we had our best and our far less, it was not easy, for example, have it sitting on a table to finish watching the soup dripping all over her clothing. I have killed at least about four million times and worship a zillion million.

is to see him leave, for a fool and confident, that terrible place in Caracas and embraced without telling us and tell us everything.

is knowing it's there, varied with his philosophy and his eyes.

is knowing that one eye was playful and has a letter horrible, horrible. Reaching pathetic.

is knowing that your butt is swollen, his walk is as unique as his humor, that if you step on an ant lining the floor, his smile is ironic that I learned, ja, ja, ja- shearing the hair cut from him

is to know that his shyness is directly proportional to his huge heart, not eating after 6 years and was insufferable as a teenager.

is knowing so many things ...

is remembering that he was born 6 months, weighing over two kilos, which lasted a month in an incubator, is suffered sleepless nights, is to have my mother for 2 weeks in bed, with rubella, and he with just more than a month old, like a dried frog with long coat, which could be a complete study of blood vessels and joints without desiccating.

is washing diapers. It is hate, forever and ever, in 1976 ... disposable diapers came to Venezuela in early 77. And now I say, my friends beginners, to bathing and diapering a baby is ultra hard ... I come to me with tales of the road. I certainly do not repeat the experience in my life. I also know that is just blah-blah-blah from me.

Back to the story.

I vomited, I urinated, I prepared the NAN, the S26, the nenerina, I heard wonderful concerts with their ERUT, I showed him walking and aeiou, I took him to school, I took him to the movies, he slept I gave him to eat, fight-and how- I spoke to did not speak, I sent it to shit, shit sent me, we hugged, we cried, we laughed, we went to fight and all those wonderful things that make a big brother to his younger brother.

_Ustedes are brothers?

a lady asked us point-blank.

Stupid question, I thought. If we do not seem physically at all. He ruddy altote, awesome and I as close to Turkish-with apologies to the Turks.

_Yes ... why? responded more courtesy than anything else.

_Tiene, incredibly, the same eyes and the same look.

This has been one of the beautiful gifts of life, knowing that I have your eyes, your eyes.

Now I'm fucked for life. Every time you hear the Triumphal March from Aida, The Alleluia of the Messiah. By association libertine ideas, I will remember him as that song to show you as a child and that life will be forgotten.

proud I was his best man. I personally apologize for this post ... is that my child was a cap and gown. He is a lawyer.

Juan Carlos I love you.

You know how he gets one, silly, corny, with children, that gives you life, when we celebrate their successes.



All the best for you.

PS: I have three brothers . Galleguísimos them. Every time I look in the mirror, I see Juan Carlos, in my eyes. See also, my brother Roberto Luis Antonio-yes ... implies the three-, I smile and I, a brother, Manuel Arturo, my voice. My three sons, the three of them ... I changed diapers, cloth-are more than my brothers.

What Is Retroperitoneal Adenopathy



Sometimes there are situations like an oil slick on the water clear corrupts and damages.

beloved Empress China Sorry, I swore not to touch the subject ... but things are already happening and, although I was not asked, I give my version of things, without distortion, that is what let others more skilled in the art.

Let a little history.

Chapter 1.

At the end of last year I had the wonderful idea of \u200b\u200bdoing a few Christmas cards I made, the design-through-Yadi and sent to all those who are important to me. It was my way of thanking them for such a presence, so many beautiful things I've been given. This has not changed, on the contrary, every day I am proud to meet so many more very different people in the end I do enrich my life.

But to return.

In one of those people, whom I'll call my Princess of the Waves, I asked a favor. I asked him if he could give the card to a third party. She said yes and we even laugh about the possible reaction of the third party.

Fool me, if I had known what would come next.

fact that they sent their 2 cards and a present for both. I mean, this summer I shared with them, a trip Pisa and Florence. With Alitalia, and two interminable hours in the Rome airport, my luggage did not arrive in Pisa and with them, my presents to them. Then, taking advantage of sending cards, I decided to send a voucher in an on-silver. A dinner for four people in the city of canals. A dinner for them, my two friends and their partners. It was my Christmas present to them.

What was my surprise one day after, take the envelope to mail, I called My Princess of the Waves and says "I think, I decided that it is better not give your envelope to ... When your letter comes I take my card and I send the other back. "

not told about the voucher. Bother me, I can not deny, but said nothing. All four dinners were lost, I swallowed my anger, life goes on and holy Easter. But no. The story does not.

Yo, without shame, I kept visiting their blog letting my comments, noting that they responded to all but me. A month later I wrote a message by mobile phone, My Princess of the Waves, "time without knowing you" and I got a response a: "This is considered harassment and the truth is that I hope does not repeat ever, is only respect and ask away. You disrespected and insulted me and generally I consider my friends do not. "

I disrespect? I cursed? When?

not yet out of my astonishment and to show the message to My Migratory Bird said: "You ..., harassing?, People do not know definitively what is stalking

was

the first time I read, addressed to me, the word harassment. I confess that sometimes I am stupid and do not measure the consequences. Paragraph of his message was, like a glove, a story he had written two years earlier. So I used it and the story posted on my blog. More fuel to the fire.

For my part I thought that chapter was closed, but no. Then I discovered not one, not two, not three ..., four were written, the recipient of the card is not delivered, she gave me. I will not mention the wonderful text written. I respect and above all respect him. I can only add to your page I feel very good. I can not see or enjoy, he is responsible for closing the entrance, but before Windows find out what type of use and do not know what else. The bully in this story myself.

Chapter 2.

Early last year I traveled to Madrid with some friends from the office. In Madrid I have some friends and I stopped to see them to know Na Coquette. We met in front of the Café Gijón, the note was literature, and later smiled. My Son, one of my colleagues in the office, then asked me "How old are you know" , his face when he heard a poem we were seeing for the first time.

fact we finished, and I Na Coquette, singing and remembering our childhood, for half Sopotocientos Castellana. While her son and my son were silent, stunned, in the back seat of his car.

I returned to Geneva and was a delight to our telephone conversations. She told me their projects, and his writings, his next novel and I mine. Moreover, in those talks had three post, three post I promised, and spent them already published. "When you go back to Madrid. A bottle of red wine waiting for you " was the promise every time we talked. The months passed and my trip was not given.

I finally organized my trip to Madrid earlier this year. Fireworks over the phone. Two days before he writes me and tells me "Excuse me, but I'm very busy ... and I can not address."

Well, what good is worth waiting, I thought ... but no.

I returned to Madrid and called: "My son has a birthday ..."

I called, months later, once and I still chill freezes the soul.

I wrote, word did not understand, do not understand and his only response was: "There is nothing to understand. It's a personal decision. "

End of story:

Every time I commented to my comment disappears Coqueta Na-no, thousands-today I went and put the following:

"How much absence ...

much silence

much choked

much intolerance

much sentence

much martyrdom

There saddest thing that the silence of a friend, a bird without wings, a bell naked at night, an endless horizon, a no why ...

The silence between two souls, is a stream of letters to be written without ink or recipient

I?

still hope,

hope that the clouds let the sun

Play voice

so much silence stuns me

photos can be broken, silence sounds

can: cut arms, fire awareness, the curtain, close a workbook, chain looks ...

But never with my conscience and the truth of my words ...

much absence ...

much silence

much choked

much intolerance

Case much

much martyrdom

And forever, and never forget.

All the best for you.

PS: I hope the message out and not steal. "

And deleted it, and wrote, in response, I'm a stalker.

thing that hurts me and makes me sad to be accused, tried and convicted for free. I had for some time debating between silence and write. If you said nothing was right, if protested, too.

I feel no resentment, bitterness and sour older. But something can be sure, I wish them, now and forever, all the best of the best.

For my part I close the book, I learned and that is appreciated.

Draw your own conclusions.

I forgot. All the best for you.
