I was just surfing the Web and I saw it: this picture (click it to magnify)!! I like it and I decided to show it. There’s two good reasons for that: I still love Pink Floyd after all these years and I’ve got impressed with the originality of this image.

If it be your will
That I speak no more
And my voice be still
As it was before
I will speak no more
I shall abide until
I am spoken for

That a voice be true
From this broken hill
I will sing to you
From this broken hill
All your praises they shall ring
If it be your will
To let me sing
From this broken hill
All your praises [...]

Almost 35 years ago I drunk my first beer. It was a hot, really hot summer in Porto, Portugal. I and my buddies were so thirsty after a couple of hours studying that we decided to look for a drink. We just found beer!! That was a problem because kids aren’t supposed to drink beer or any other liquid containing alchool.
But human kind has a [...]

Last October 23rd, Brazil (or 64% of its voting population) said to the world, through a national referendum, that all Brazilian citizen can freely buy and use weapons.
