At Christmas we are all more ...

At Christmas we are all better people. They say. It will be because maybe I'm not the prototype of the 'model crisitano' *, but I is not that I feel particularly good this year ... Indeed, they are also a little more angry than usual, with all the shit that happen.

I say, but we look around? Are just a few inches of snow and half of Europe went into a panic, people stop cold for hours on trains, people trapped under the Channel Tunnel (think, between few years, our equivalent Strait ... Brr ...). But where the hell are we? What the Middle Ages? With people on the street who is pissed off twice because not only has to go to work well with '** I'm cold, even with the snow and ice, but to lose hours to shovel the snow and must be careful not to pave the pedestrians forced to walk in the street because the snow was shoveled yes, but it was all thrown on the sidewalks! Brilliant. He says: "How are you?" "Well thank you. ... Well Well a couple of ..." (Ssst, it is Christmas)

So come on, we buy the gifts. And come on, we decorate the tree, the crib, the bembin Jesus with the ox and the donkey.

And we go, we buy the cake and get ready for the great feasts in the family that has always characterized the holidays in our country.

And we go and pretend that there are problems, we pretend to love us and we are all friends, so that when we turn around now there's someone ready to put it. Yes, you know where.

Let us go and celebrate, and we are all better and we're all happier that while the world goes to hell.

At Christmas we are all better people. Except Rabbit. . .

11/25/2009 MR. GREG AND SOCIAL RELATIONS AND KAMPALA

Mr. Greg grows visibly in Uganda, in the capital. And in the compound where we live happy, full of trees, little friends to have fun and above all safe and without risk (almost, as already has three scars on the face due to falling game). But is it right that he too see and experience the city as it stands, that goes far beyond the gate behind which we repaired. Sometimes we go in the dirt roads that lead from the main road and after that it opens up a world virtually unknown to us. Unfortunately it is not easy being white sometimes in Uganda and he has tried. When we arrive in the clearing of the neighborhood full of kids playing ball, jumping rope, chasing each other, mostly barefoot, dirty and pretty with a runny nose usually ... well, the activities of a sudden stop and all the children in a There are currently ahead of us with eyes wide open, motionless, watching us. Greg is not just a gesture or say something I explode with laughter loud and fingers pointing at us. With the best will try to say Greg going to play, but anyone would feel a bit 'uncomfortable in a situation like that ... then use the fun lasts becomes white rabbits with red eyes that run between the trash and calm after a while we go disconsolate. But I am convinced that if we continue to attend the open space of the games we become acccetti well, like the time we were invited to participate in the festival area (on the same square) with traditional songs and dances.

But between episodes, there are also quite moving, do you remember when I told Greg that was selling bananas on the road? Often we stopped along the way by women who sell corn and bananas, with a lady in particular, we did "friendship". The lady sitting by the roadside along with suio children, a, Patricia, seven months and another one (or more, but still I did not understand how many and what are its children) for six or seven years. Sometimes we stopped a few minutes and play with the children, to exchange some talk in Luganda and English mixed with gestures and I bought a roasted corn, at other times my in-laws bought packets of biscuits and gave them to children. Obviously there Waits for nothing but one night, it was already dark, I was coming home with Greg and a friend and the lady was as usual on his corner of the sidewalk with her children, she called Gregori mama! " and I hardly have found the darkness and I leaned toward her, brought me a bag saying "for Gregori" and I am amazed but not understanding what it was, I thanked her repeatedly with a bow as used Ugandan women. Arrived home, the light, I opened the clear plastic bag and found a plastic giraffina and terra cotta owl ... a lump in my throat was inevitable, especially when I see it as Gregory holds these two items and keeps them happy between her hands saying "galo" (meaning gift). How precious are these two simple toys!

In the office they told me that if you fat means that your husband takes care of you and you're lucky ... that ass!

I Think Im In Love With My Best Friend Quote

Ex Libris - December 2, 2009

About events (since December 5 is approaching ...). About rallies more or less spontaneous, about the right to freedom "of assembly and expression of their thoughts" (for details, see: Constitution, Articles 17 and 21).

We quote from the last book of Daniel Luttazzi a statement issued by former President Cossiga , one that, to quote the comedian, 'has never been particularly reluctant to shoot shit'.

*

Leave it to the university: to withdraw the police from the streets, infiltrate the movement with provoking agents ready for anything, and leave it for ten days or so demonstrators devastate shops, set fire to the machines and put iron and the city on fire. After that, the strong popular support (...) the police should not have pity and send them all to hospital (...), beat to a pulp, even those teachers who incite them. I'm not saying the elderly, of course, but the teachers so girls.

Charles Bronson, here, has just explained what happened at the G8 in Genoa.

The fragment is taken from an interview appeared Cossiga October 23, 2008 on "QN" and reported in Daniele Luttazzi , Cold Civil War (Feltrinelli, November 2009).

In your comments, some admitted that there is something to add.

Jewish Humor. These days, with a friend, we're in the mood 'stories about Jesus'. And then, looking through the book an interesting read which kept me company lately, are a couple of funny stories which the Jewish hilarity, as always, is not an end in itself but is able to lead us to think a little ...

* The Lord of Time and Space, seeing that Eve and Adam's puzzled that they had thought to acquire the knowledge learned enough to bite an apple tree right indignantly called the Archangel and told him: "See those two over there? Please toglimeli feet, forever cast out those two idiots from Eden, I do not see them anymore."

* The pastor in a suburb of Vienna meets three small children in a garden.

"Hello, children."

"Good morning, your reverence," the three meet.

"What are you doing here in this heat?"

"We are trying to catch butterflies, your reverence."

"It's really hot ... Look, today I give two crowns for a fabulous ice cream for those who respond better to my questions. ... Let's start with you, blond: Whom do you love more than anyone else in this world?"

"Mom, Mr. parish priest. "

" And you, with that brown hair? "

" Dad, your reverence. "

" And you, you have blacks, curly hair? "

" Our Lord Jesus Christ "respond promptly the third child.

"Bravissimo, here the two crowns, you really deserve them. And tell me, what's your name, child? "

" Israel Cohen, your reverence. "

Flash Forward - looking to the future

seems to come directly from a story by PK Dick the idea behind this series, from the novel by Robert J. Sawyer Next time (in fact, FlashForward ). The idea is simple and compelling: in the middle of any day the whole of humanity is in 'black out', all men and women on the planet simultaneously faint and remain unconscious for 2 minutes and 17 seconds. The effects of the 'black out' are, at the time, devastating. Planes falling, car crashes and explosions seem to catapult the viewer into the classic post-apocalyptic serial (Trend in Jericho is only the latest, unfortunate example).

In fact, during the 'black out', all human beings are literally a leap into the future, looking more or less clear what will happen six months later, April 29, 2010. It will be FBI Special Agent Mark Benford (the very good Finnies Joseph) and his colleagues find out what actually happened on the day of the blackout, and if the views that (almost) all have had are really the future or whether they are hallucinations, dreams or whatever.

*

The serial, which was hailed by many as the heir to Lost , Is based on (apparently) on the same game of 'Chinese boxes' invented by JJAbrams or answer a question ponendone another, unravel a mystery introducing another game that has brought so much success precisely Lost plagiarized and then later by many other TV series (one for all, but sorry to say, Battlestar Galactica ). To put it bluntly, this 'game' was to write screenplays, years ago, (male) employed by the Wachowski brothers in their trilogy The Matrix .

FlashForward has, however, a slight but interesting difference from its predecessors: if, for example, on world's most famous (which is not that of Ventura) was the fun in not knowing what will happen "after" the Chinese box and the 'cliffhanger' are all along the misty future and the fate of the castaways, here tomorrow will is flat-spotted before the eyes of all in the first episode. We know who dies, who will betray whom, who will be pregnant in short, we know (almost) exactly how it will end. It will, in our opinion, very interesting to find out 'how' the FlashForward become reality ...

* A small note on the cast: in addition to the previously mentioned Finnies , including actors FlashForward includes John Cho (Sulu in the Star Trek of, look, JJAbrams) and Dominic Monaghan , Hobbit in Lord of the Rings PeterJackson .

The authors, however, stands the name of Brannon Braga, a man who for years has linked its name to the brand Star Trek.

Waking Up In The Morning With Blocked Up Nose

12:09:09 MR.GREG 'A SELLER OF BANANAS

Episode: walking along the express way near his home in Kampala (main road, paved and busy), we stopped to buy bananas from a child along the sidewalk. The child (who will have 'had about 9 or 10 years and I think he lived very little of her own childhood) was sitting on a mat with a basket full of bananas in front of you'. I stop, with Gregory by the hand, I bent down to ask the price, and then Greg comini bananas and yelling "Nana, Nana"! to avoid making the figure of the mother who cares for her son to peel a banana and just bought him do a piece, not just pick up the nice comfortable sitting next to the little girl to enjoy his banana and caress the hands of the child. Women who were selling next mantis shrimp or roasted peanuts have made very comical to see this "little things" white sitting in the middle of the sidewalk to "sell" bananas smiling but the beauty is that when I told him it was time to go, we could not stay there all night he got me pretty good "bye bye" and was placed next to his new best friend, ready to send me home alone. Take it away was a company in the laughter of the ladies next door and passers-by who stopped in amazement to observe the scene, for once, in a European the shoes of an African ... the roadside.
It 's true that children have no boundaries .. how wonderful!

30/08/2009 MR. GREG AND THE CAPITAL OF UGANDA

We're back here, after months, but we are justified in fact there have been changes graaandi!
From the bucolic life of "campaign" in the village Greg moved with his mother in the chaotic capital Kampala. Kampala is, like most African capitals, a chaos. You can find everything, but just about anything, even for the sophisticated needs of our European expatriates. What you will find this city is like a major European city, including casinos, restaurants for all tastes, swimming pools, gyms, cinema and theater ... In short we wanted to kick it big but we actually ... but we take advantage Kampala little luxury is not just the Owino market, central market (huge) made up of shacks on top of each other, creating narrow passageways and smelly including "walk" to search for the desired item among hundreds of people shouting, running, eating ... there are areas of men's clothes, towels zone, zone of fabrics and seamstresses
... Kampala is also street children, begging at traffic lights, and street vendors at every street corner that sell the most unexpected as deck chairs, toys, games, or make a pedicure or manicure on the sidewalk just having a litter box for objects.
In Kampala there are the rich neighborhoods of villas behind high gates or hedges green but there are slums where people live who have fled from war ventanale the north and settled in areas divided according to tribe. The children of these slums speak Luganda (the language of the central region where Kampala is located) since they use at school, but also and above all speak the language of the regions where they come from and follow the traditions of their tribe even though we live in the capital in short .. many cities are in the city.
E 'difficult, I believe, get to know all its secrets and Kampala and its contradictions but it is also so fascinating creche always look "behind" to everything, from the bright lights behind the Supermarket, behind the road and lit behind the luxurious rooms there is always another world A world where thousands of people at night in the dark as they do not have electricity, but that move, chat, cook, wash, do shopping ... only, often unseen by the eyes of those who do not want to see.

It is not easy at all to be a white man in Africa, Uganda does not speak well for the time being of all Africa, I do not know. Really understand what it means discrimination, which does not necessarily mean strong violence, but simply the difficulty of diversity, of understanding each other.
bury you when you are watched by hundreds of people, when your every gesture or movement is "scanned" by hundreds of eyes staring at you when your word triggers laughter and giggles or is repeated over and over again in minutes from succesivi all those who were close ... there's nothing bad or violent in all this is only an expression of diversity to be different and if you ... it hurts.
We often take part in the lives of people like going to the market, attend public events, religious etc.spesso .. we are the only white people or we the company of a few others .. but almost always we are the only ones with a small child than a year and a half blond and cuddly with white skin and blue eyes ...
Many times I feel robbed by these eyes so inquisitive, it's like I'm naked in front of all those people watching me, watching how I behave as a mother, what makes Gregory attitude with me as my husband ...
most likely will not judge but I think so, most probably just watch and are curious to see if The whites are really so different from them as they told the grandparents or as seen in American movies ...
In these moments I think of all immigrants in Italy of skin color different from ours, how many pegiudizi against them and how they must feel to walk down the street or sit in the bus with all eyes on him or the woman who held a bag se'la stronger or the mothers who take children by the hand as if I had come a danger sudden.
Sometimes you really need to go into someone else's shoes to understand the feelings that can cause some of our attitudes and then as I feel uncomfortable when they are observed both in Uganda also spotlight 'attention to how I look or how I turn a black / mulatto / Arabic ... in Italy and then just think that racism is whites to blacks ... I can 'be the inverse and even "all attitudes of intolerance and discrimination based on social prejudices "(Basic Dictionary Italian, Giunti, 2004) and we too are victims of prejudice in this country, and many, and we must dispel (if not real, but sometimes they are!) So I'm learning to look at things from different points of view and when it comes to interpersonal relationships must be groped to put oneself in others!

MR.GREG EAT "Glocal"

Mr. Greg is growing and now his taste buds are experimenting with everything from land, which has begun to enjoy since she was a few months, stones, sticks, but I also edible food tastes like guava, pineapple , papaya, bananas are his favorite fruit, and of course are all local and fresh. But his diet ' is also a bit 'Italian and comprehensive as its first pasta I have been very classic macaroni Plasmon, send the grandmothers in industrial quantities, the morning drinking milk powder, which is perhaps the product that is more global, it feeds hectograms Grana Padano at will and liters of olive oil and sometimes eat pizza. Alternating with these tastes purely Italian, but also globally known he has the privilege of eating chapati, a kind of fried flatbread, I Mandaza: sweet dough fritters, and the Matoka: cooked in banana leaves to their own (the name derives from the type of banana named), is the main course of the Baganda who say that if a party is not the Matoka you may have eaten 2 pounds of rice but it's like not having lunch! And then smoked fish, is the only way in which it markets as the storage can not 'be done otherwise in the villages; cassava: tuber similar to potato and you can' find fried or boiled ...
But most Interestingly, he is learning the right way to eat local, that is, someone goes to make you wash your hands with dish soap, water and small tank, you need more stuff in the pot only possible including fruit and then eat with hands (usually with one, but we are not capable), and quickly. Finally, just finally, you can 'drink if you do you first inflated the stomach and not leave space for food and thus is considered a good idea to only drink after a meal.
Traditionally there is served with dishes but everything is cooked (as always with the stoves under the coal) in the leaves of banana: the Matoka, chicken, peanut sauce with fish. Each sauce inside a bundle of banana leaves and finished with the fine fibers of the same and then served to each his own and take the biggest bundle Matoka and another rice dish and intige everything together inside your bundle ... thanks to this particular area all takes a very special taste and remains hot for some time. To us, so we had dinner at the home of his friends last night ... looks very "exotic". The kitchen is quite long and we wondered how can I tell when it's ready when it's all locked up in the leaves but they explained that it is almost ready when the smoke comes from the leaves (it seemed to me to talk about the pressure cooker!) From that moment you let it cook a bit 'and then is ready to serve. I do not know if many prepare the food in this way, modern couples and women who work but I do not think that in the villages or on occasions be routine. (Certainly not routinely eat more meat and fish dishes that are valuable and expensive )
Mr.Greg course during the dinner did a great rice and Matoka paciugo spreading everywhere but the excuse which is a small child, the mother instead did not have the excuse but the paciugo did the same!

16:02:09 Between tradition and modernity '

In the culture of the Baganda, who live in the kingdom of Buganda today is roughly equivalent to the modern name of the Central Region, a woman who is betrothed or married can not 'meet-in-law. If he goes visiting in-laws 'house should wear the traditional dress (Gomez) and must be covered as much as possible but also can not' put the word to the father, nor look into his eyes, or stay in the same room. We happened to visit the parents of a colleague Matte with his girlfriend and their child, they are our age, Sometimes we spend evenings together and we have a lot in common. The girl, wearing a short skirt and a blouse, just got out of his bag he pulled out a blanket and a shawl, and she wore them on his clothes. Of course I asked for an explanation and he told me that he had with him the traditional dress, it's too uncomfortable and she did not make the trip with that, and so we had to cover it with something else to get in-laws' house. It 's always been far from the father, I carefully observed all the moves, and was careful to not come near. As I understand it is a form of respect. In any case women are in the kitchen while cooking and to share confidences with play children and men are talking on the couch waiting for the arrival of food. As always I am with men but I am not yet clear whether it is because they are white or just a guest .. Things seem anachronistic, distant and almost impossible to carry out yet in modern Uganda is still very respected rules. Young women graduates, who live and work in the capital, dressed in the Western way is often very elegant, maybe in his career and who know the technology, the latest fashions ... when they go to the village of origin in a liege respect the traditional rules and often leave proud. I wonder every day if I would be able to have a life so torn between modernity and tradition and love both ways of life. What I said is only a minimal example of thousands and thousands of costumes which should be respected, starting from traditional marriage must take place before the church (for Catholics) and that is a function in accordance with the rules of family, clan and follows a series of traditional rituals and is legally valid. In almost every aspect of daily life are the rules dictated by law and those that are more traditional and equally respected. If I think that now we do not even know most of our dialect origin ... Can 'seem anachronistic and a slow way to get closer to us to progress but it is really very charming and every day we learn something new: the need to understand more!

09.01.2009 THE FIRST TIME IN AFRICA


Here we are in the new year, the transition from old to new was pretty quiet and pleasant. Family in the past, eh already fully booked for the four grandparents decided to come and visit us in Uganda so far away for the holidays. And finally saw firsthand the places where their grandchild is growing. They arrived before Christmas and we've been together two weeks. Their arrival was a big party for us that we're accustomed to our quiet routine of silence (when there are all the children in the garden) ... in less than no time the house was filled with items, shoes, color, sweets, tortellini ... and gifts!
For our parents it was the first long journey of life and especially the first time in Africa. I have been for the first time in Uganda in 1997 and was my first contact with Africa, Matte in 2006 has enjoyed his first encounter with the warm earth Tanzania. For each of the first meeting is different, has a special taste, but to hear and see our parents for the first time in Africa has come to mind the first sensations, the first moments of wonder, which seemed to be hidden under the red dust that covered my next trip ..
And then it was nice to see through their eyes "the first time" you see a bicycle overloaded of people and fruit, sometimes furniture or animals; a truck full of cows and people climbing, children in a dusty courtyard in front of a mud house, playing with a wheel, laughing and waving, the bright green palm trees, the deep red unlikely and the earth, the smile and the handshake of the people who do not know you but want to say goodbye, a church packed with people singing in unison and children wrapped in colorful clothes, and then again the first time you see the free monkeys in their habitat and you feel almost guilty for being you in the wrong place, giraffes, lions, elephants, hippos surrounded by a breathtaking landscape warmed by a sun of a bright orange that drops leaving a trail of thousands of colors on the savannah. The first time you see kids a few years to bring tanks of water on the head, load the younger siblings on their backs, a woman who while tilling the earth looks up and smiles at you a nod of greeting but also the first time you see the capital's traffic, shopping malls and skyscrapers next to the slums and markets overflowing with dirty plates. The first time you taste the papaya and orange machine of his unmistakable, the first time you see an avocado, a mango, jackfruit or a passion fruit. The first time we will see a party that seems to have been organized especially for you where you are treated like a king and you do not know why you did nothing but someone thanks you, and deeper and deeper into the sofa on which you sit while the others are on the benches. The first time you need a local dish and watch the others to understand how to eat and sometimes we must swallow without knowing what you eat, the first time you smell the earth and the sun's equator. ... Thanks, your visit to us has appreciated the many things that we are now getting used to but that is so special that they can not tarnish in the everyday and thanks for your first time in Africa was also our first time in Africa with you. And it was special!

19:12:08 MR. GREG TURNS ONE YEAR


On 19 December, Mr. took a year and that year! Far from where he was born but so so happy. After have designed and written and "sent" invitations, with the help of a little girl, for the party that should have been held in our garden in the afternoon on December 19 from 16, I was surprised by the children that same day, ... but at 9 am. Were ready and loaded to start the party! I began to hang the balloons and have a little 'things then I told them to return for the four, I have listened to half and the three were back in front of goal but this time it washed, polished and fragrant, and all with Sunday clothes! A bit 'at the time I started to bring out chips, cookies and candies, and within three to four minutes it had all been brushed the bowls placed neatly beside the table and the children sat with plates full of food. If the dates are holy reason to grab the cookies or candy and someone has also filled the pockets to run home to put the "loot" and return to stock. They practically built towers of cookies in their saucers, mixed with potato chips and salty stuff and you are all free ride without drinking a drop to drink ...! But here it is inconceivable to us how it works: you fill the dishes to capacity, you eat quickly and then you drink a soda. Quite different from what we are used to us ...
After snack I pulled out masks, horns, hats and soap bubbles and the colors and the screams have filled the garden. Mr. Greg was a bit 'confused in the midst of a dozen kids screaming and jumping, all older than him (except for a three-month) but if it is passed by the feast of biscuits that day too! In the late afternoon arrived some mother to bring the greetings and some present, not to take the children which of course come and go alone! In the evening they arrived Matte some colleagues to bring the best wishes from all the staff ... well until nine o'clock in the evening the table under the porch was filled and emptied several times for drinks, chips, peanuts, candy ... and chairs successive people of all ages ... the three of us relieved smiles and talk and then we collapsed after this day full of smiles, cries, handshakes and congratulations to the many small after all that Greg has also been Bravin, perhaps confused because of the chaos ..
