THe Curious case of the female "bag"
I think you have figured out by now that I am not exactly your girlie girl girl.
I am not. Not that I have anything against girlie girls; On the contrary I confess sometimes I think life would be easier if I could be one,
Anyways, this is one thing that I wonder about girlie girls: The female purse/bag.
I see them everywhere. All females carry some sort of bag. Most of them are huge and it...
My personal best example. We Fucked Up.
What do I think its the best example of the ultimate demise of western society?
Politics? Economics? Foreign Policies? Wars based on oil?
Well, yes. But No.
I have the ultimate example.
- PUBLIC STORAGE -
What? Yes, you read it right. Public Storage.
When I first found out about this types of enterprises I was floored. Think about it. Really, think about it.
We decided as humans that in...
Darkish Beauty.
I will admit it. I find grey and darkish moods to be terribly beautiful. There is something so deeply attractive to me about a certain nostalgia of things I have never seen or heard or experienced. Its like a collective or genetic memory. I really do not know.
I do recognize that there is beauty in light and in positive messages. But a black and white printing, or a dark tunnel only lighted by a...
Life and second chances.
I don’t know about you, but I always assume I am not right. I know I don’t know everything so this position allows me to learn something.
This is the thing. I started my law career in criminal law, and for a period I thought that was my north. For many not important reasons (including changing countries) I ended up not following that path, but for the short period I lived in it I...
Good morning oh ghost of wondering thoughts.
Yes, sometimes I even wake up wondering things. Even with my eyes still closed i pose myself questions, just like that.
I wondered why we feel we are limited by training. Sounds confusing I know.
Ok, I guess I am a natural multitasker. I have been all my life. I think my father in order to “protect” me from failure told me over and over that it was ok not to have any specific talent,...
Indian Summer
I wonder who came up with that name and why. Really. I should go and check in Wiki.
But before that, I would just like to say that today was probably the most beautiful day so far of this year, 2010. Wow, the colors, the light, the temperature, everything was custom made, beautiful.
I grew up in a place where there are no seasons really. Sure, the year varies slightly in temperature, but the...
This is not about a movie
We humans ( totally generalizing) seem to have expectations about everything except the life of our nations and the life of the world.
We make plans and stress about our decisions, the choices that’ll affect our existence, yet I feel that we forget that is engrained in our nature to have formed this societies and imaginary boundaries that we call countries.
Ever thought that bigger decisions...
“Spoiler Alert: We all die in the end.”
– me, over coffee.
Go ahead and categorize this
Oh for crying out loud. Really?
There we go with the same question: Are you liberal?, conservative?, socialist?, communist?, democratic?, orthodox?, leftist?, progressive?,anarchist?
Really?
Well, here I go, once and for all.
First, there are definitions there that I would literally have to study in order to come up with a proper answer.
Second. Why in the world will I “join” a...
The age of terror
I just stood in front an open wagon of the metro debating if I should go inside or not.
I didn’t.
I took another line of the metro to get to this connection and inside my wagon was this guy, wearing a nice suit and dark glasses who kept murmuring how he hated everything. He’s carrying two big backpacks and for sure looks troubled.
This is not the first frustrated or crazy person...
Rebuc Sic Stantibus my friend, Rebuc Sic...
The principle of law is to set the way we should behave in society. That is the general definition on why we have laws and what are they for.
This more and more is not the case. Or better yet, we have become very complex entities that require enormous amount of rules in order to do things. However, I tend to not agree.
Laws are obscure now, They are indecipherable sets of words that seems to be...
Start a Re-Volution. Go ahead and tweet why dont... →
Sometimes I wonder if the Universe is a slinky shaped thing where we find ourselves -just like in a rollercoaster- in the same place but not at the same time realizing we have been going in circles yet strangely moving forward (whatever forward means if this indeed is a slinky)
Of course we are going to debate social media as a media. It is a media. A new media. A new way of interacting. Flawed,...
Uncommon sense of Common sense.
So I have realized lately that it is not a rule that everybody has common sense.
Wait, no. Let me re-phrase that. Not everybody has “the same” sense of “common”
Reason I say this is because as much as I like to think that we are all good and our intentions are not bad at the core, I think I am wrong.
Damn.
Question. Why would anybody cares if two men want to get...
Democracy Now, mine is standing in front of yours,...
This is the thing about Democracy, if you believe in it.
First, you should know what it is, what it implies and how does it work. Why? Well„ it rules your world, period. We are constantly trying to understand how things work in our life, yet we fail at one of the most important and that is the delegation of the running of your country, decision making for all, including you.
Democracy is...
