I guess I never mentioned that my hiccups (see posts below) actually went away after three days. It was indeed a side effect of the general anesthesia.
Way too busy at work. More than usual. More than I can manage. Hence the lack of posts.
I watched the Oscar acceptance speech video (in youtube) of Glen Hansard and Marketa Irglova for their song Falling Slowly. It made me want to watch the movie once again. The movie, Once, again. If you haven’t seen Once, you should. I want to own that one. But I want it to be my first movie purchased digitally on the web.
I’m sick of DVDs. Especially scratched DVDs. DVDs are like CD’s: a necessary but completely ineffective step between pre-digital technology and digital technology. I never liked CDs. Ever. LP albums actually allowed for another artistic expression in the cover. The large, 15" by 15" (or whatever the actual size was or is), area of the album covers was perfect to display some art. Not the case at all with the CDs. And CDs scratch easily. And then the stupid cellophane wrap of the CDs!!!!!!!!! I could never unwrap and open a CD in less than 15 minutes. And then the plastic case would ALWAYS break. There were many things wrong with CDs. So I’m happy I don’t have to buy another one. Same goes for DVDs. Looking forward to the full transition to downloading movies and bypassing the DVDisk.
Magalí thinks that I should start a cycling blog. With all my comments and thoughts on pro cycling. Maybe I will. The fact is that I follow that sport very closely and I read about it almost every day. And Maga is probably bored with my comments about Damiano Cunego and Alessandro Petacchi. We’ll see.
