En Dineometer el 2008.09.29

Does anyone remember that reverse Robin Hood skit from Monty Python many years ago? Steal from the poor and give to the rich? That's what this whole financial bail out sounds like to me. All I know is that some financial executive's Caribbean retreat is being protected while an increasing number of my non-wealthy friends seem to be losing their jobs. How are we, the shirtless masses, going to come up with the cash to fund this $700 billion plan? Well, we here at Dineometer have a solution. Lets...

En lo que no es el 2008.09.22

landlocked blues - bright eyes If you walk away, I'll walk away First tell me which road you will take I don't want to risk our paths crossing someday So you walk that way, I'll walk this way And the future hangs over heads And it moves with each current event Until it falls all around like a cold, steady rain Just stay in when it's looking this way And the moon's laying low in the sky Forcing everything metal to shine And the sidewalk holds diamonds like a jewelry store case They...

En gorilla vs. bear el 2008.09.05

It's been a slow week, so I feel fairly comfortable saying this recording of some little Ugandan kids covering Bjork's "All is Full of Love" is the best thing you'll hear all day. Listen at Bitone's myspace. The song is part of an album to benefit the Bitone Children's Home, and the whole record was recorded with a laptop and one microphone in the center's living room. Awesome. All of the tracks on their page are worth a listen, and you can help out by purchasing the...

En An American in Lima el 2008.09.03

Sr. Mostazo El Fotografo can’t kick this chest cold he’s been suffering with for three weeks. Not even the schlep to Santa Eulalia last weekend could knock it out of his system. So I decided to try a home remedy on him that I read about in Suite 101. Now EF’s lying in bed swathed in poultices and blankets, just four feet away from me, and the room reeks of Indian food. Let me explain. Earlier this morning I read about this great mustard plaster (also known as a "poultice")...

En Emotion's Little Box el 2008.09.02

If there's something that identify us as unique kind of human beings, is the fact that in a very emotional way we leave marks in other people. As frames in our emotional brain. Some people can leave bigger marks than others, but what's important to understand is that it's not an ability we all have or learn how to develop, it comes with they way we are and it can't be changed or managed. It's a very interesting investigation to find out what kind of mark we leave and for me, it has...

Artist Emily Steinberg tells us about her life in the online autobiographical graphic memoir Graphic Therapy - Notes from the Gap Years. The memoir is divided into "sessions" and thus, far only the first 3 sessions have been uploaded. Her mini-bio at the Smith site reads "Emily is 39, single, underemployed, and can?t decide if she?s a dilettante or a genius. We?re pretty sure it?s the latter. Her fearlessly blunt diary of her ?gap years? exposes a unique worldview on art,...

En Inn of the Last Home el 2008.07.25

I am obsessed. Actually, my whole family is. Most of the time the TV is on in our living room. Sometimes we're actually home to watch it. While occasionally we actually sit down to watch a show, most of the time it was just some necessary white noise to our daily routine. But to have a consistent, non-offensive, bland-as-vanilla-pudding TV white noise, we had to pick a channel. Something non-controversial and one nothing would likely come on our kids couldn't see. And that maybe had some...

Mafe posted another conversation between the sexes, which by the way are always hilarious (YAY! for Colombians being funny)… which I will translate here… XY: Listen, are you scared of insects? XX: … it depends on the insect, why? XY: I just wanted to know if you can help me kill that huge bug that is on the wall… XX: AAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH!!!! < - needed no translation ---- XY: Get down from on top of the table! XX: NO! XY: You could fall... XX: NO! XY: Just hand me the broom,...

En Gil The Jenius el 2008.06.30

When I first saw him, he was a slim, gray-stubbled man wearing a fading brown suit--vest and all--and a folded paper bag hat, atop a broad-backed horse. He rode with shy dignity as some kids called out to him: ¡Sombrillita! ¡Sombrillita! He sat atop his large horse, surveying the growing midday traffic jam and humphed softly as the policeman made a hash of the situation.When traffic had snarled to a standstill and with some drivers yelling at the policeman to let Sombrillita handle this, the...

En ronald flores el 2008.06.16

The theorists that I consider best suit the contradictory elaboration of the "contemporary" as opposed to the ancient, are Tacitus, Schiller and Cinthio. I am well aware that I do not cite them in their respective chronological order, but in doing so I pursue a different type of arrangement, a claim for the vivid incompleteness of the present. Following Plato’s Symposium setting, Tacitus’s Dialogue on Oratory, addresses the issue of the decline of public-speaking in early Imperial...

En Veenzuela News and Views el 2008.06.11

There are things that truly make one wonder about the future of the planet. There is for sure global warming, but there are things equally terrible in their social consequences such as the wave of Muslim women practicing hymenoplasty across Europe. This report from the New York Times should make any one of us concerned about separation of Religion and State, about individual will and about the elemental right to privacy shudder. I am not going to examine this article: it speaks for itself and should...

En Ballad of a Thin Man el 2008.05.18

Un video que le pone alegría al domingo... The old Rocker wore his hair too long, wore his trouser cuffs too tight. Unfashionable to the end --- drank his ale too light. Death's head belt buckle --- yesterday's dreams --- the transport caf' prophet of doom. Ringing no change in his double-sewn seams in his post-war-babe gloom. Now he's too old to Rock'n'Roll but he's too young to die. He once owned a Harley Davidson and a Triumph Bonneville. Counted his friends in burned-out spark plugs and prays that he...
