I knew about George Carlin just after he died, as one of my favourite writers was also a fan of him.
I wanted to write something since then, but now I found the smartest and most shocking quote of Carlin, that shows my feeling very well.

I look at it this way... For centuries now, man has done everything he can to destroy, defile, and interfere with nature: clear-cutting forests, strip-mining mountains, poisoning the atmosphere, over-fishing the oceans, polluting the rivers and lakes, destroying wetlands and aquifers... so when nature strikes back, and smacks him on the head and kicks him in the nuts, I enjoy that. I have absolutely no sympathy for human beings whatsoever. None. And no matter what kind of problem humans are facing, whether it's natural or man-made, I always hope it gets worse.
The pirate speaks,"I be sorry for bein' late. I was busy robberin' some guys and drinkin' rum, so t' weekend I had t' spent it at work. But I had a few seconds t' update me site, that will be like this for undefined period o' time. Thanks a lot t' all for comin' in even with t' lack o' activity. Wait... what I just said? I be becomin' a sissy!"
It's been long since the time I posted a sad text... but there are times when things HAVE to end. I cheated myself, like I knew I would, says the song. Trying to fix a broken piece is pointless, as there is no way to recover anything to its initial state. Scars, even on the surface, change completely our point of view on the subject.
This is my post-it note to remember that I have to learn how, what and who I am. Always.
Note that I said this because my post in spanish was heavily critized, almost like if it had been a CoD of any important matter and I have not realized that... too bad
Although I do not read this paper a lot, I like to do it from time to time. It's very nice to be aware of all the stupid rubbish the NorthAmerican president is doing
The Independent Media Centre. One of the most radical sites of politics and news. But if it's read carefully, gives a lot of clarifying answers and raises more questions about whow bad our world is taking important decisions.
A nice flash animation, and of course a big web site telling why not to join the northamerican army. Of course, I'm not from that country, neither I would like to, but Iraq war it's not right and also affects the rest of the world, incluiding me, so

A very good DataBase for formula 1 drivers statistics. Updating was closed a looong time ago, but still very interesting as a source for historical stats
One very, very good, but normally biased news source for F1 (mainly). It's articles are quite interesting, also because they are somehow critical into F1 management (bernie et al)

Nuestra buena imagen en VillegasEditores.com: descubra el fascinante horizonte llamado Colombia. En este lugar, las selvas amazónicas se funden con dos océanos, las cordilleras son parques y las sabanas y ríos tienen la textura de selvas y nevados
I first saw this guy in a video of La fitta sassaiola dell'ingiuria (don not ask what does that mean because I have no answer to that). they seem to be very crazy, but I do not follow them much.
A collection of free internet radio stations. Very good indeed. Nice music, although my favourite station, Onomatopoeia, died some time ago. Still there are very good stuff in here. Check it out!! hahaha
Tutorials for learning ancient greek. Have been here some times... it looks pretty interesting, but or I am quite slow, or ancient greek is not easy to learn... I suppose a tutor would help me, but this is not one of my priorities.
Another reference point in the internet for general reading. Most of the books here are classical masterpieces, so it should be a MUST for everyone, including me ;)
