For those of you knowing me, nothing that I can say here will make you believe I have been out in Pelourinho, Salvador’s downtown, for a Friday night show of Brazilian music but I do declare that it really happened (January 19th).

Back to homeland after one whole year in Bahia brought me a bit of Christmas carol during the season which is supposed to celebrate the birth of a man about who nobody can say more than what the Bible says. And, as you know, the Bible is no better no worse than any of the Superman books except the fact that, I believe, there was [...] This space is reserved to my dismay: I don’t know what to say about AIDS (or SIDA in French, Spanish and Portuguese). Fortunately there’s many people knowing what to say but, above all, what to do about it (click the banner). May this day bring some more strength and hope to the ones caught by this disease. The Host Of Seraphim (from The Serpent’s Egg, 1988) was my first date with Dead Can Dance, an aussie band (if such can be told) formed in 1981 by Brendan Perry and Lisa Gerrard, both of them born in Commonwealth countries and, at least until last year, still together despite some separations here and there along the band’s life.

What a pain in the ass is to live here in Salvador, Bahia, during electoral campaign for election of president, senator, governor and regional delegates (know more about Brazilian elections). After all these days listening to endeless hours of free political propaganda on radio and TV (the access of political [...] Very often an industrial company sees their shopfloor workers responsible for maintaining their productive equipment as a “necessary malevolence”. Based on that assumption, top managers usually under-pay this type of professionals working in the area of “Repair & Maintenance” and usually they also underestimate the skills of engineers and technicians dedicated to industrial maintenance. It’s also true that very seldom maintenance workers are included in [...] Hell with the fake pudency or shame! This is the actual best “fofoca” (chitchat) here in Bahia: ex-Ronaldo’s (The Phenomenon) making sex with occasional boyfriend in Spain. I’ve got this video (click here) from Internet and people is talking a lot about it (on radio and TV). There’s already some jokes about it. There’s happiness flying around it because we, human beings, are like that: [...] |
