Canada se vinde (si multi cumpara ideea) ca un rai multietnic unde toti traiesc fericiti si-n concubinaj, inclusiv Tom si Jerry. Realitatea nu-i foarte departe de reclama, dar exista si exceptii si-aici prezint cateva. 

There are two subjects that seem to dominate the Romanian public sphere (I would say blogo.ro-oaie, but that's defunct): the religion choice in schools and the New York Times Op-Ed on corruption in Romania. I’m very tempted to make a nice hot stew out of both, but I’ll try to keep each to its own article.

Mi-am amintit recent de niste cantece vechi. Si ca un facut, le regasesc in muzica noua. Si-am inceput sa torc la gura focului..

Never have I hesitated to make my views on Romanian immigration known. I think that most people leaving the country for good are better off living in Ro (though European tourism needs to expand, especially among college students, who also have Erasmus to take advantage of). That is why I’m conflicted about “Maria’s Manifesto”, a rather incongruent and emotional appeal to “patriotism”.

Am descoperit un nou PA si am numai cateva minute sa-i raspund (da, stiu ca urma sa-l continui pe cel precedent, dar ma gandesc ca nu-i o idee rea sa intru in hora oficiala).

Our favorite former SF author, CTP, is back with another seemingly antiziganist or racist controversy, again on former PM and current PSD candidate for president, Dancila. He made fun of her family name etymology (likely Romani or Gypsy) and an anti-discrimination group / person entered the fray.

By the time this article is published, I might not be in a situation to reply to comments right away. Still, not long ago I had a(nother) conversation with Blegoo and, visiting his blog, I’ve found some interesting news I had missed. This led me, for a brief moment, to question my love for Netherlands.

Aflam cu mobila si durere ca romii se poarta urat cu niste ziaristi maghiari care venisera sa-i intervieveze. In loc sa-i primeasca si ei cu paine si sare, in loc sa taie porcu', i-au...

O poveste des primita prin email se refera la munca patriotica de deszapezire pe care toti cei cu casa sau business stradal trebuie s-o depuna cand ninge. Ceea ce, in Canada, se-ntampla destul de des.

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.

In articolul despre pasarei am adus in discutie unul dintre argumentele “primare” homofobice: Biblia si mai precis Leviticus 18:22. Acest argument a fost discutat si ras-discutat in trecut, asa ca m-am grabit sa traduc o scrisoare veche catre o comentatoare conservatoare care s-a pronuntat public impotriva homosexualitatii.
Later Edit: I am getting a lot of hits from people searching for Dr. Laura Schlessinger nude pics. For all the people coming from the United States, this article is about Dr Laura's controversial views on homosexuality (which she may have changed in the meantime). She claims in her latest book, Surviving A Shark Attack (on Land), that the photos (previously published by Hustler) were photoshopped. I do not hate her, but I think she is often wrong or misguided and I tend to believe that the photos are legit.

Anul trecut publicam colindele cantate de corul lui Dan Petrescu la Concertul de Craciun al Clubului Studentilor Romani la Victoria Chappel. Anul asta, voi canta eu ceva .

N/O stands for Night Out, but you can read it as "NO jazz for the masses" since jazz will never have the same audience and mass appeal as manele, for instance. I suspect that with jazz, you never quite know what to expect (even with a band or soloist you have heard before), whereas manele and other more “popular” genres deliver a more consistent listener / dancer experience.

On the subject of long-distance communications (following my recent WhatsApp-ian conversion). And then I added something a little less annoying and quite satisfying: a debating project.

There's been a lot of hoopla about horses and Romania lately. Let's summarize it.

Diana, zeita gropii de nisip din parculetul de joaca, mi-a indrumat pasii catre un articol elegiac (7eleDzapada) despre multe, printre altele zapada. Si cugetul meu bolnav s-a-ndreptat imediat catre Frank Zappa si celebrul sau cantec, cu zappaDA.

Honest Ed is an iconic “Canadian Kwik-E-Mart” that will forever close its doors on December 31, 2016. If you are wondering what does this have to do with the recently arraigned Ion Iliescu, well, I couldn’t find another rhyme.

Robert Frost este gagistrul care o zas ca a scrie poezie in versuri albe este ca si cum ai juca tenis cu fileul la pamant. Taman d-aia, m-am gandit sa va prezint cateva poezii si sa le traduc in versuri albe.

Ma-ncearca o durere de cap. Dac-as fi muritor de rand, m-as gandi ca am o problema la falca. Dar fiind si eu un zeu protoroman, imi imaginez ca-s bortos la cap, ca Zeus.

M-am gandit sa inaugurez o noua rubrica, Dilemando, in care sa discut asa-zisele "dezbateri" din blogo.ro-aie - mai precis, concursurile de facut pipi cu bataie lunga care trec drept dezbateri. Voi discuta chiar si articole care se vor samanta de dezbateri.
