Scemo e piu’ scemo

November 14, 2009

SILVIO5_popB.) Ora passo la parola al presidente Clooney…io non considero la lngua serba bellissima. La nostra è molto più musicale. Aspetto ancora un’opera in serbo…

B.) Abbiamo fatto entrambi studi classici e sappiamo di essere legati alla Serbia dalla storia. Abbiamo ricordato i vari imperatori romani nati in quel Paese, non ricordiamo se siano 13 o 19 ma tra di loro c’è il grande Costantino

T.) Mi dispiace che nel Milan non ci sia nessun giocatore serbo anzi c’è Stankovic che gioca nella squadra avversaria. Se dovesse segnare un gol nel prossimo derby i nostri rapporti potrebbero peggiorare

T.) C’e’ amicizia tra serbi e italiani. Pochi giorni fa c’è stato un concerto di Eros Ramazzotti in Serbia e lo abbiamo vissuto come un nostro cantante

Il livello culturale di Berlusconi e Tadic farebbe impallidere chiunque: non so chi sia migliore a sparare stupidaggini. Davvero c’e’ amicizi tra serbi e italiani.


I leave you, productive society …

November 14, 2009

I leave you, productive society

Another dreamer gives up
I leave you to live
I leave you to love
I leave you because I love the night
and I do not care the morning having gold in its mouth

I leave you for the light of the candles in the night
I leave you for the satisfaction of the music played
when everybody sleeps planning its future tomorrow

I leave you, productive society
because I surely realized you deny life
you deny dreams
you deny

I leave you to those poor men
believing in success
and power
and command
as being witness of a God who doesn’t exist.

Being my God told to say: live like a bird
And so I will.


Feelings useless just over 30, or, looking for a job being over 30

November 13, 2009

Who knows me, knows how much time did I invest in my job in the last years. No evenings at home, no week ends, and this year no holidays, too. The projects I am involved in, or my low intelligence level, required so. Almost three months ago I sent my project for revision to my supreme leader. He possibly changed his priorities towards my project, or he never had any, as his necessary revision is not yet on the table. I start to doubt if I will ever get some revision. No revision, no result, time wasted. Nice prospective.

So, I find myself having a lot of boring time to fill up. Writing application letters for new jobs makes this time even worst, as I got no positive answer yet after many (and I mean MANY) CVs sent around the world.

It is terrible to be just above 30 and to feel completely useless for my own and society development. I really envy the previous generation of workers, sitting in the same company for all their life. I know blaming old choices or crying on myself will possibly not solve any problem – but for time to time I need it – before it is too late.


Attenzione: alcuni Italiani possono provocare forti attacchi di nausea

November 9, 2009

Oggi c’e’ una bella collezione di gens italica che induce a forte malessere sul Corriere della Sera. Tutti assieme: per caso, o perche’ il loro numero  e’ ormai cresciuto eccessivamente? Scorrendo la pagina web dall’alto al basso:

Corona “sfrecciava a 220 chilometri orari alla guida di una fiammante Lamborghini ‘Gallardo’. Era senza patente, ritiratagli in Italia. Il fotografo è incappato in una pattuglia all’altezza del ponte-diga di Melide dove il limite massimo è di 80 chilometri”

Minzolini “L’onda di Tangentopoli e la stagione di Mani Pulite hanno cancellato l’immunità dalla Costituzione”

Giovanardi “Cucchi drogato, è morto perché anoressico”

Santanchè “Maometto era poligamo e pedofilo. Una moglie aveva 9 anni”

Bleuuuuurgh … troppi in una volta, non ce l’ho fatta a trattenermi.


Quando noi si andava a vedere Vasco in concerto …

…a Imola nel 1998, al massimo gli cadeva il microfono. L’eta’ avanza per tutti :lol: povero Vasco …


How bitchy must a female popstar be to get famous?

November 6, 2009

MTVawards&more

Probably I am just getting old … Nevertheless, I wonder where the success of these women comes from. To me, being older than 30, they look like good looking women making money showing boobs and assess (and – some – talent of course) – striking examples of emancipated women of the new century :lol: Were the MTV awards sponsored by Victoria’s secrets?


Work equals frustration. Physicists mathematically demonstrated it!

November 5, 2009

This evening, while eating a pizza with tartufo at the pizzeria, I got this astonishing enlightenment. Let me quickly explain the following equations and the truth about the real essence of “work”!4

Phi(W)=frustration at work; t=time; a=duration of your job contract in years; W(t)=work; sigma(t)=satisfaction

1

alpha(n)=achievement; n=number of achievements

2

F=force; d=displacement

From these 3 easy equations, two expected conclusions and one amazing and revolutionary postulate are obtained:

3

If (n) of achievements equals to zero, or if time t tends to infinite, frustration Phi(w) goes infinite. More unexpected, if the force F applied to work W is zero, frustration is zero! The postulate is: do not work and live happily!


Weesen – Walenstadt: from dawn ’til dusk on the Walensee

October 31, 2009

walensee_autumn

What a nice daily hiking today on the north side of the Walensee. 12 brave men and women who managed to wake up before the sunrise, 12 hours of tough and beautiful paths through colorful autumn forests. No cold, no fatigue, no wine could stop them! :) I love it when a plan comes together.

Here the reportage on flickr.com
