In a recent (semi-)transatlantic flight, while reading the airline magazine, I stumbled upon a bit on courage and machismo, which contrasted sharply with Andre Gide’s preface to an Antoine de Saint-Exupery (you know, the guy who wrote Le Petit Prince) book I was also (re)-reading. Let me present it for you.

Recent, zoso publica un videoclip al Antenelor cu ieseni calcandu-se in picioare pentru produse de bricolaj la oferta. Eu revad un clip despre care am scris acum cativa ani. Cel vechi e cu saraci la Walmart.

I just learned about two Romanian-Canadian people, mother and daughter Ana Constantin and Lisa Maria Paun being banned for life by Air Canada and left stranded without proper notice. This is not discrimination, just incredibly poor customer service and it’s an issue almost all of us have to deal with every time we fly.

A rather popular essay these days is Don't date a girl who travels (link in Sources). Some would use the word "viral" but I'm a mysophobe (aka germaphob) when it comes to travel.

You may have heard that in Europe, on May 25, people vote for euroskeptics to represent them in Brussels and simultaneously destroy whatever's left of the European dream. You can help destroy Europe here in Toronto as well.

I have been staying away from the news of the moment, but this recent tragedy hits extremely close to home, whichever way a member of the Toronto Romanian diaspora (including myself) chooses to define that notion.

Am primit recent o leapsa de la puttycat, cu ce sau cum mi-a fost furat si mi-a ramas in minte. Trec peste evidenta tenta materialista a lepsei - e mai important ce ramane-n minte, sau ce poti tine-n palma? Raspunsul nu conteaza, a fost o vreme cand am trait si eu in foame. Articolul initial, fiind prea mare, a fost spart in inca doua: Nokia si Sony.

Discussing the tragedy is inescapable. I had started doing this a few days ago, focusing mostly on Andrei Anghel, but didn’t have the time to say all that I wanted to say, which is why I’m continuing here.

Reciteam recent povestea vietii lui Ion Rimaru, teroarea anilor '70 si ramaneam uimit cum perceptiile populatiei generale si modul de a gandi cu "fa ceva!" au ramas practic neschimbate, gasindu-si mai nou expresie in teatrul de securitate. Criminalii se schimba, prostia vulgului, nu. Asta pe langa prima victima din serialul de familie, care se numea Elena Udrea.
