We were told on Friday that we should attend something important, a workshop, on Monday.
Actors
I’have just attempted to pretend that I am an actress, although no one would ever believe I can be one, especially after seeing the video which has been the result of today’s work…, more than to be believed, it is something to be laughed at. We did certainly have a really good time doing it, even the poor director, who was really taking it seriously, could not help but laughing. Until he saw the video at the end of the day, that is. I could see he was worried big time, while we were watching it, wondering what on earth he could do with the rough cuts we were watching.
And when we run out of video to watch, we played the hacklab video, about Free Software, and did a bit of evangelisation, right there.
I have the impression that they listened to us only because they wanted to hear Angel speak.
We have reached the conclusion he has a unique success with girls. Good. “He” can become an actor.
Blogs
Apparently this quote, contrary to what I was told when it was included in the Financial Crimes, is genuine:
‘One night, probably in 1880, John Swinton, then the preeminent New York journalist, was the guest of honour at a banquet given him by the leaders of his craft. Someone who knew neither the press nor Swinton offered a toast to the independent press. Swinton outraged his colleagues by replying:
“There is no such thing, at this date of the world’s history, in America, as an independent press. You know it and I know it.
censorship
I have been verbally notified that the political content of Tube Radio, for which I was previously told to be the sole responsible person, is going to be censored / approved/ disapproved, before being aired, for legal reasons.
Christians
I have finally found a Christian group in this anarchist mare-magnum…
Irreverent thoughts
Bush and Blair have praised the Pope once he has died. But they were not ‘inspired’ by John Paul II when he was strongly opposing the invasion of Iraq.
More news
It’s getting to be a bit of a pain; all the media, tv, radio and newspapers, flooded with the death of a man who, according to one of the nuns at my catholic school, was so Christian and as catholic as I.
News
The Pope has died, Spanish national television announces, at 21,37 today. I look at the clock on the wall and it is 10 past 10. What have then been doing all this time then, I wonder?
Wet soil
When I was little, I only needed to go to the balcony once it had stopped raining to perceive an intense scent of wet soil. But there is no soil any longer. They have asphalted it all, or “developed”, as the construction of blocks of concrete, cement and brick -in that order of importance- is now called.
Friday
Like in smaller towns, men sit at the very end of the church. The women scatter about in the reminder of the church – women have always outnumbered men in churches.
