Self-Trapped -part 2

… or “Don’t cry for me. This is not a goodbye”.(1)

Today I went through a terrific experience in my professional life: my former bosses were so spectacular providing me such a VIP treatment(2) that the result was a couple of people dropping some tears for me. Guys, when someone cries for me, sincerely and altruistically, there can be only two things I can think about:

Friendship? Cheers!

The Wanderer — Sun, 27 Jun 2010 03:00:08 +0000

I have found out (lately) that it is still possible to go through truly friendship between two human beings up to the borders where people usually barily get into the conclusion if what they are feeling is friendship or love. I myself, an incurable “free speech” performer, very often get very much lost when I try to define concepts like love, friendship, passion, etc…

When I [...]

Shakespeare

The Wanderer — Thu, 25 Mar 2010 20:24:26 +0000

All of a sudden I have felt a tremendous desire of coming here, to my laptop Toshiba, Satellite Pro P300-1F1, and say something about Shakespeare. Not the silly English writer, William Shakespeare, but only the little cafe where sometimes I go to face, one on one, my own capacity to deal with my limited capacities.

Shakespeare Bar is a bar (what a fucking redundancy, isn’t it?) [...]

Fish ‘n’ Chips? No Thanks! -part 2

The Wanderer — Fri, 26 Feb 2010 15:48:35 +0000

This time the idea is to proclaim to the world the immeasurable joy I felt yesterday with the clear and unequivocal victory of Sporting Clube de Portugal, from Lisboa, over Everton F.C., from Liverpool, UK. Not because I am a Sporting supporter (you know, I love F.C. Porto) but mainly because the team they beat is an English (from England) one

Sporting C.P. 3 – 0 [...]

Ms. Mercy Came For a Cup of Tea…

The Wanderer — Mon, 30 Nov 2009 14:17:19 +0000

Tea is a fine drink, pretty tasty as much as scotch. Both of them very much socializing oriented. Chic ladies usually meet at evening for a cup of tea and some fat free buttered toasts. Drinking tea is not only a British attitude. However, they are the most worldwide known bigger tea consumers, even if in fact they are not(1).

Lately, I have been realizing that [...]

50

The Wanderer — Sat, 01 Aug 2009 09:20:46 +0000

Fifty! What can be said about this? As far I know, whatever we may say will be nothing that can be taken as an absolute truth or even be taken as something interesting. It will depend, of course, on who you are, where are you coming from and where are you going to. Definitely, when a man is fifty is already someone over the mid [...]

Solitude Standing

The Wanderer — Fri, 19 Jun 2009 21:00:51 +0000

… or “I’m a poor lonesome cowboy, and a long way from home…”. The idea here is not to talk about Lucky Luke, the cowboy faster than his shadow, but rather talk only about the demystification of loneliness and the exaltation of the good part of it(1). Anyhow, this post has been somewhat inspired by Suzanne Vega’s(2) song with the same title (in “Solitude Standing”, [...]

Get Me Out Of Here!

The Wanderer — Mon, 25 May 2009 19:18:49 +0000

Most of the people I know refuse to recognize how mistaken is their life or how boring their life is or how puzzled is their day to day existence. Why? Because if they do it, I mean if they realize it, they also have to realize they are not happy. The best way to resolve a problem is to not have it. The best way [...]

Let It Be, Let It be…

The Wanderer — Mon, 23 Mar 2009 20:17:40 +0000

Not that I am a fan of Beatles (never was, still am not) nor because I think their song “Let It Be” is that much great but only because I have decided today to talk about a social stereotype which I call the “let-it-be person”.

Each one of us, humans populating this blued ball, is always a little bit “let-it-be” person. Not all of us, but [...]

Marriage Sucks -part 2

The Wanderer — Tue, 03 Mar 2009 19:31:47 +0000

Easy things do not challenge, they say, but I rather take them easy, if I can. But marriage it is not an easy thing, never was, never will… Like I said before, people should not have to marry. In (almost) all existing social groups, whether we call them countries or cultures, marriage is not a free option. Very often it is not even an [...]
