I'm officially narrowing down the travel possibilities for the next 5 months:


Mon, May 2nd - Spanish girls leave
Thurs, May 19th - Work meet, must be in Lisbon
Fri-Sun June 3,4,5 - Tattoo Convention Valencia
Fri June 10th - Dia de Portugal
Mon June 13th - Sto.Antonio
Thu June 23rd - Tori Amos concert Cologne.
Saturday June 25th - Back to Lisbon
Monday July 11th - Anne goes to Stuttgard (confirm?)/ Would I go to Tunisia?
Wen July 13th - Anne goes to Palma with mom and sis (or that's what she claims)
Wen July 20th - Anne comes back from Palma / Back from Tunisia?

Tue Aug 15th - Have to be in Lisbon for work
Fri-Sun, Sept 9,10,11 - Tattoo Cenvention Barcelona

Now, some things such as the Tattoo conventions are things that I'd like to go to but have no idea. Other such as the Tori Amos concert (don't ask) and the wedding from hell I am going for sure (although no invitations yet...).

Next step: estimate a budget...

Compatriotas, camaradas... Viva a Revolução

On saturday we went to see a movie about Hitler's last days in the bunker, I believe it has been translated into english as "The Fall". Amazing, go see it.

At the beggining of the movie it really impressed me how human Hitler is portraied, somehow, it never hit me that Hitler could be human... and how he was a straight edge vegetarian: did not drink, smoked or ate meat (at least I can fucking think???). Is pretty scary as I got the impression (from the movie only of course) that this real evil person was not, after all, a lunatic. He had a very well laid down plan, incredibly logical and really believed that he was doing the best for Germany and for the world. Totally wrong but completly rational. If he and Bush Jr. would stand side by side it would be pretty obvious that Bush is crazy one and Hitler was a very rational man.

And while on it just think about how similar the two of them are: both meaning the best for their countries and the world, both fighting a "hidden menace" and putting the blame on an ethnic group for internal problems down to creating concentration camps outside their nation where is easier to bend or totally shatter the conventional treatment of prisoners, fueling the internal economy through war expansion (if only Bush would be half the economist that Hitler was, we would be all dead by now), both with massive support from and uneducated population (and yes, I am saying that americans are uneducated), both using a homeland terrorist act as a way to start a war...Is scary! The main difference is that Bush's IQ can barely raise from the floor and Hitler's bodycount (for the time being) is much higher. Then again he started with a country that had nothing, let's see if Bush can do worse than him...


...and no, I won't make more political entries. What can I say, yesterday was 25 de Abril...

Avante camarada, avante

Monday is 25 de Abril so right now I'm about 3 hours away from a 3-day weekend. My plans involve establishing a new sleeping record of some sort.

Cento took off for Valencia so if powlow can make sometime from saling his ass to old and dirty businessmen on the busy streets of Barcelona, he could make the trip the trip down to Valencia and meet up with Cento and Lena (is she still in Valencia?).

And for all of you who wonder, Pedro Vidal is still alive now the other big question is if he finished his bloody thesis or will he wait so his kids finish it.

Goddamm...

I've been so fucking tired lately that is getting ridiculous... I'm supposed to hit the gymn twice a week and this month I've gone a total of 3 times so far... I feel tired 24/7 and can't be arsed to get up early enought to go to the gymn, don't have energy to walk the dog and can't think of new and exciting things to do. In two words "It sucks". Last week Sahra dropped by for a few days and didn't even manage to meet with her. Not good.

...but hey, at least today I hit 180 km/h on the way to work while listening to More Human Than a Human by White Zombie...

Wait, was that what James was talking a few posts below?

Speaking about posts below, you people suck big fat balls. Has anyone noticed that there's a video below? No comments from anyone? I bet that if I would upload a porn video there would be some feedback, you pervs...

On another issue, I still have to figure out what am I doing about holidays this year. Anne has everything sorted out but the month of August so I guess we'll try to go somewhere. My idea would be to figure out cheap flights to visit a bunch of cities (im soooo much into a city nomad mood lately) in 10 days / 2 weeks but that's a very long shot...

Also I might take 1 week to do some lone travel/inner search thing. Actually I feel like doing that next week, being that Monday is 25 de Abril (holiday) and I could just jump in the car and try to go as far as Lyon to visit Victoria, stopping in Madrid, Valencia , Barcelona and who knows what else... If it wasn't because over the last 2 months I had to pay a bunch of money in car related stuff and until next pay day I can't afford to spend much... All the bills are payed though, and I have enought money to eat and for gas which is all I need to the end of the day so all is good.

And Anne is trying to make her cold even worse by working too much. If she hits the jackpot she'll have a shitty weekend. Are we workholics???

And this week's money shot question : Where's Pedro Vidal? Haven't heard of him in ages....

A day at the races

The weeked went by like a bullet. It was the Estoril Motorbike Grand Prix...sorry the Betandwin.com Estoril Grand Prix, the portuguese stage of the world motorbike championship and since Betandwin is a client of ours we scored some passes which translated into a 45 minutes work meeting which later on translated into a Sunday (race day) work day ... So so much for the weekend... I'm having trouble getting up and hitting the bathroom, let alone the gymn and Anne has a slight cold, even though it is April and the weather is good... Next week a spanish terror squad will hit Lisbon and I actually miss them as I'm supposed to do some business travel. More on that later... I didn't get a pic of my car with 666 KM but at least I got it with 333...

Tool at 150???

For no apparent reason I got today the following message from James "I love fried chicken" Jones...

> Listening to Tool at 150% speed is good ... very punk.
>
> At 120% they sound like Jane's Addiction.

Right...So the bet's are on, each participant shells 5€ and who ever gets right what drug James was doing when he wrote that email gets the pot.

My 5€ go for Peyote.

Anti-rape Tampon

Ouch...AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGG, OUCH, OUCH , OUCH and OUCH!!!!

Friday , Bowling and videoclips

Yesterday we went bowling. Cento, Elena, Fuck, Paulinho, Anne and me at the BIL on the Expo. It was cool and we had some light week-day-night kind of fun. I'd like to do it again on Tuesday as is cheaper, 4€ per game plus 1€ for shoes is still quite a bit...Then again 2 beers for 1,5€ sounds sweet. Next time Anne is driving.

Speaking of Anne, I found out that behind that sweet face is one wicked natural born killer. After the game we went upstairs where they have some arcade machines and Anne and Fuck totally ruled this House of Dead shooting game. You know the kind, where you hold the gun and have massive amounts of zombies, bats, spiders and monsters coming at you. All with loads of gore...On the way back I swear I could see her eye twich every now and then :)... She told me people could get nightmares by playing that game, I made fun of her and she gave it back with a bang this morning when I told her that I had a pretty bad nightmare consiting of this version of Fuck, like evil and dark Fuck, killing Powlow and then hiding the body. And we couldn't find the body even though we torture Dark Fuck. All parties involved, be afraid...be very afraid....

I did a small clip and that one along with a longer one from February are looking for a kind and generous soul that will host them somewhere. I've have some offers out there but now is time to colect: If you have a server for me please mail me the url, login and password and I'll upload them. Unfurtantly Picasa 2 and Hello still don't upload pictures.

Oh yeah, tomorrow Three and a Quarter play with the Skatalites...

NO.THAT IS SIMPLY WRONG. I DON'T NEED A ROBOT TO HELP ME PEE. Go away....

Guiller's car and large lobes...

The big story over the last few days was Guiller's borrowed Fiat Uno (from Feijoo) getting robbed. Something along these lines:

On Sunday Guiller arrived home and parked the car in front of our building. About 20 minutes later the car was not there. Did I forget to mention that he spend most of Thu-Fri and Saturday chasing around parts and fixing the car so he could pass the inspection on Saturday which he did and was really happy about? Well there it is...

So the first idea is that the car had been towed away by the cops since it was on the sidewalk. We hit a tow truck park and no car there. They checked with the other parks (by radio taking fucking 20 minutes since the place was rather new and didn't have a telephone yet, portuguese style) and no car there. So down to the pigs barn in Benfica. It took about 2 hours for a guy to type a one and half page report with Guiller's data and stuff. And restarting the computer 3 times. It was surreal... And is not like we had to wait for one hour and then he started typping. Nope, this is from the moment that he said "Name?" to the moment "if we find it we'll let you know" came out of the pig's mouth. So we left the place around midnight... And you wonder why the police sucks big balls in this country?

Anyways, the car showed up yesterday near Continente Amadora minus one radio and two mp3 players... I guess Guiller is gonna get a big ass hungry pittbull now to stay in the car when he parks...


As a side note, on Saturday I took my lobes up to 2 Ga/6,5 mm. People keem on telling me they can see through me now...

P-I-M-P

I'm still out of words....
