“O du Günstige”, “Thank God it’s Christmas” and “Festa delle luci”

December 13, 2009

Of course, it is very possible my black mood somehow keeps me away from Christmas. Nevertheless, never before this year I felt how Christmas is merely celebrated as shopping and/or pagan event. Shopping centers ARE Christmas, shops make cheap parodies of  “O du fröliche” with “Oh you, cheap” and they write in capital letters “Thank God it’s Christmas” on their windows (referring to Queen or money?). If this is not enough, some bright teachers in Italy rename Christmas “Festa delle luci” (“Party of the lights”) and replace Christmas songs with “Funga Alafia” from Ghana: “Funga Alafia, ache, ache,Funga Alafia, ache, ache. La la la Alafia Hey Hey Hey La. La la la Alafia. Hey Hey Hey Hey La”.


Mai come questa volta infatti possiamo dire che gli italiani sono soli

December 11, 2009

[...] La costruzione di otto centrali nucleari fra le quali, sempre di più, si fa strada l’ipotesi che la prima “centrale della morte” potrebbe sorgere nel Veneto [...] Per cui ragazzi del Veneto è a voi che ora mi rivolgo: sappiate che stanno facendo i preparativi per accendere il fuoco sotto il culo della vostra regione. [...] Mai come questa volta infatti possiamo dire che gli italiani sono soli, tranne qualche eccezionale protezione da parte della sinistra. Soli sì, ma con la straordinaria capacità di accomunarci in un sol uomo dalla scintilla del buon senso. [...] ” (Adriano Celentano, Repubblica, 11.12.2009)

I vecchietti non durano per sempre. Quando scompariranno anche loro, allora si’ che gli Italiani saranno veramente soli.

Another wonderful Polyball ended. Walzer, Chachacha, Wiener Walzer and Rumba and Rock and Blues and everything what makes a night an unforgettable one. Thanks to Checco and Erica for sharing with us the most appealing dance event of Zurich … at least ;)

Here are the first pictures ..out of the box!

And many thanks also to the Dolder Grand that gifted us with a 2 persons luxury brunch in the most beautiful Hotel Resort of Zurich: that was a very nice surprise out of the tombola event!

…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?

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?

Street Parade 2009 – Zürich: the slide puzzle

August 12, 2009

streetparade2009_small

Ok, let’s  tell the truth. After 4 hours under the rain, it was not easy to still have the right spirit to shoot nice pictures . Nevertheless, some pictures were still worth to be cut and mixed in this wonderful slide puzzle. Actually, it is not sliding. Let’s change the game: “Find the intruder”. There’s an intruder in this slide puzzle mosaic. Even if you don’t know him/her, you could manage to find who he/she is :lol:

Ballad against modern times (and Harrods stupid Christmas show)

August 5, 2009

HARRODS CHRISTMAS

If you can always get drunk
And if you always can get high
And if you always can have sex
always with whenever you like …

And if you always live in luxury
And if you can always eat very good
And if you always wear expensive clothes
if every time of the year is Christmas by Harrods

Tell me what we celebrate Christmas for
Tell me why you will still drink
Tell me why you will still get stoned
or even still think about sex

If something will not be prohibited
nor being only special for sometimes
tell me how special will life be
except for who makes money with drinks, drugs and sex …
… and Christmas decorations.


I cannot wait for you, Ioannis: that’s for you!
