Plantronics 260 handset on bluetooth Broadcom 2045 2.0

May 6, 2008

Setting up those two devices has not been exactly a piece of cake. The problem was: old bluetooth stacks. Now that I installed the last version from Broadcom everything works perfectly. Nice to listen to my favorite music easily carried around on my eeePC being wireless too. Am I a freak?


Life: a short-term reiterative module looking for the B-point

felicidade.jpg

“A felicidade como a pluma Que o vento vai levando pelo ar Voa to leve Mas tem a vida breve Precisa que haja vento sem parar”

Today there have been no vento (wind) at all, and this led me, as usual, to think about my life … and yours. My life equals to my work, I tend to think more and more often. This is quite a dangerous decision, especially with a job that gives many frustrations and few, rare satisfactions - like yours, probably.

However, the rare happiness I get from my work is full, round and complete. That’s why I am still happy about it. Read the rest of this entry »


Toquinho, eu te amo

March 8, 2008

Today I was looking for a gift for Stasia and I felt the need to enter a music shop I never visited before. I directly went to the section music-DVD and I found this incredible, wonderful, touching DVD on Toquinho: “Toquinho e outros”. We watched it immediately together, and, well, the best music DVD I bought EVER. I really suggest you to buy it: unforgettable duos with Toquinho and Vinicius and much much more. A wonderful document.

Lichtenstein / Portugal / Switzerland / France / Russia / Italy / Kenya / Austria / Germany

No border party this night in Lorana’s flat. Nice friends and nice atmosphere: I am loving it. “You may say I’m a dreamer
But I’m not the only one I hope someday you’ll join us And the world will live as one”


A positive song for positive moments

March 6, 2008

Here is a little song I wrote /You might want to sing it note for note
Don’t worry be happy / In every life we have some trouble
When you worry you make it double /Don’t worry, be happy……

Ain’t got no place to lay your head /Somebody came and took your bed
Don’t worry, be happy / The land lord say your rent is late
He may have to litigate / Don’t worry, be happy
Look at me I am happy/ Don’t worry, be happy
Here I give you my phone number /When you worry call me
I make you happy / Don’t worry, be happy
Ain’t got no cash, ain’t got no style
Ain’t got not girl to make you smile
But don’t worry be happy /Cause when you worry
Your face will frown /And that will bring everybody down

So don’t worry, be happy (now)…..

There is this little song I wrote / I hope you learn it note for note
Like good little children / Don’t worry, be happy
Listen to what I say / In your life expect some trouble
But when you worry /You make it double
Don’t worry, be happy.…..
Don’t worry don’t do it, be happy

Put a smile on your face / Don’t bring everybody down like this
Don’t worry, it will soon past / Whatever it is

Don’t worry, be happy

Thanks to Bobby McFerrin and to my wonderful Terratec Noxon iRadio that permits me to easily listen to Radio Montecarlo nights story


Deutschland sucht den Superstar: a sick and disgusting freak show

February 4, 2008

dsds-freakshow.jpg

Saturday night we had by chance the possibility to watch what’s on television (we don’t have it at home). 50% sitcoms, 20% quiz shows and 30% reality shows. Among those, we were quite unlucky to stop on RTL’s “Deutschland sucht den Superstar” (the German version of Pop Idol).

Dear Tracy…

Thanks for all the evenings we pass together.
Thanks for all the roads we drive together.
Thanks for all the feelings we share together.

You are always the right mood at the right moment, dear. If the moment is not the right one, you create it. That’s divine …


Relaxing horn music …

Liveplasma: how to enlarge your music panorama

November 15, 2007

liveplasma.jpg

I’ve really focused tastes in music. That means: if i like Tracy Chapman I will listen only to her for years. Years passed and now I would like to listen to something else … but similar. Which direction should I take? Liveplasma gave me the answer! Try it: it’s a really useful and graphically superb system.

Thanks to sempreasinistra for showing me this service.


Bravo Luigi Perego!

Today: 5 years I am together with Stasia. This evening: a night at the Opera in Zürich! We had so much fun with a wonderful classical-modern version of Barbiere di Siviglia. Good singers, nice orchestra and absolutely wonderful set design by Luigi Perego. Tonight: nice sushi at Yoshi’s ..  what  a wonderful 8th of November (in exclusive, the first picture of us dated 8.11.2002!)
