Rom rom rom rom....rom is definitely a woman, is definitely out of time, like the bunch of public clocks reminding you all the time when you walk around: you cannot found two of them telling you it is the same time...even if slightly different, the time they point is another....and in the end whether the time is slightly different or very different it is the same, so it is wrong to ask yourself too much....

Christmas reading
A first list which I chose thanks to google news and thanks to the fact i did not read any of those books.
A second list, which I read myself in the last Economist issue.
There is also a third one, which gives a kind of too long list.
Or just listen to this for a second

For Blair, against Balkenende
The numbering of articles of the EU Treaties changed three times in less than twenty years...as far as I recall it is easier to say those articles whose number did not change than the other way round...I asked myself on what exactly were the french and the dutch asked to vote for...and what about with the Irish, twice....what are we supposed nowadays to stand for...? For a process started with good intensions but become a huge pachydermic animal, able to decide what is a third of the national parliaments of the 27 members state of the union, but unable to give a highly profiled political post to someody able to create some hype...
European Union is often referred as an unstoppable process, though slow and full of drawbacks, but for the good....being not stoppable looks nowadays the only thing many fans of the EU could be proud of...

There is the way you walk through this life, with its duties and its chances, and the way you think about yourself in that process....the best ones are those for whom the difference is not too big...in my case the gap is so big that it screams aloud every time I am back home...
I should believe I could give myself another chance...a defeat is most of the time better than a tied up...
Yours

I do think less of people voting for Mr. Berlusconi
I do think less of guys stinking at 8.30 on Monday morning
I do think less of women wearing fur
I do think less of people thinking less of not vegetarian people
I do think less of punks begging for money with Nike shoes on
I do think less of people talking about what they posted on Facebook

Though no Ribbentropp-Molotov Pact, as the Polish Foreign Minister says, this new North Stream is not the best solution ever, to let the Central European feel they are as worth as the Werstern...

The Gentle Side of me and you
There is all that music and those comics we never talked about
There is all those moments we did not share
There is your idea of me and my idea of you
which run away from each other
every hour
a tiny step further
while I feel like there is no word,
nor gesture
no sentence
nor gaze
to heal this misunderstanding between us

Retarded wanna-be politicians
NPD should be banned. Period.
It is extremely unpleasant to see their campaign posters.
Just the next reason to ban them

So the most exciting weeks of this summer are passing by, I fell in love with Berlin and its pretty laid back attitude of welcoming you...I enjoyed the visit of some very special friends, those who will always be kept in a special part of my heart, I guess...
Cheesy but so true....
The party in Sux Bar turned out to be a kind of success...definitely a very good first party...
Leaving Berlin soon for the next weeks, heading est, as it should be more often than it happens to be...

I did not even know her surname until yesterday night...now I only know how it sounds, no idea how that should be written...
I realize now that the decision of letting Facebook go was one of the few smart ones I took lately....together with deciding to stop working in Goldener Hahn...
Though I decided very instinctively in both cases, they turned out to be so wise and right...
I have the mind full of kind of cheesy thoughts...plans that do not actually start...and a bunch of good friends coming over in the next days...

...old ashes for treesssss....
...Sehnsucht an P.Floyd...why, actually?
Maybe because it is the third grey ady in a row...maybe because I am here home, loooking at my sage plant on the window...maybe because I am still wondering whether I should eat something...whether the music I have collected so far still satisfies me, whether Soviet Union is interesting enough...whether I should watch the R.Garros final, whether I should not care about the small things for a while...
