Desi state vecine si oarecum pretene, Canada si Statele se ciocnesc din cand in cand cap in cap. In ultima vreme a fost numai un razboi al vorbelor, dar ultima data cand s-au suparat Canadienii pe americani, i-au batut de le-a sunat apa-n cap, i-au fugarit pan-la Washington, unde au dat foc Casei Albe, transformand-o probabil in Casa Cenusie, sau, vorba poetului, de Scrum.

Extreme division in the public opinion is not new and is not common only to Romania. What is special about our situation is how ludicrous and paranoid their claims are. In this article commenced long ago, we look at how “tunnel vision” and “excessive focus” ruins politics, and implicitly, electorates who fail to censor the politicians who succumb to it.

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.

There are two issues I have not written about, though they’ve been on my mind and are quite troubling, from a consistency point of view: Sevil Shhaideh Saga and Kovesi’s plagiarism. The second can wait, but the first is quite important.

Continuam cu alte date despre Mugur Isarescu, dupa ce in prima parte am trecut sumar in revistablog atributiile bancii nationale si un interviu acordat de Mugur Isarescu publicatiei L'Express. Discutam aici ctitoriile isaresciene si cateva teorii conspirationale.

A recent “viral” video clip shows the Romanian president, Klaus Iohannis, moving the Union Jack (the UK flag), out of the way as he talks to reporters. This act of “elimination” is probably the least interesting of the ones discussed herein.

Azi e ziua patriei, dar cum ii spuneam lui Krossfire intr-un comentariu, prefer o zi rationala uneia nationale. Oricum, el explica tare bine cam tot ce-i de explicat, iar eu n-as putea decat sa repet urarea veche. Continui aici discutia emotie vs. logica, inceputa in prima parte cu Colbert si Adeveria.

I am beginning to see the limits of my enforced-positivity in terms of absorbing and interpreting the current political events. Yet the political situation in Romania is remarkably similar to what’s happening in USA.

Cum triez si cum votez… Voi incerca sa explic pe scurt cum gandesc si procesul de informare si triere a acestor informatii. Aici imi exprim parerile subiective – datele obiective se regasesc in prima parte.

In my previous election adventures, I have relied heavily on the 'testvote' application and even shared and commented my results with you, my readers. I was planning to do the same this time, then I noticed something peculiar: all the candidates have virtually the same position! Upon further investigating, it appeared that either the application has been updated in the meantime or there was an error due to poor Internet connectivity and bad coding.

Cand generalul de securitate Ion Pacepa a cerut azil politic in US, Ceausescu a avut un microinfarct iar Andries a scris celebrul sau blues. De-atunci, ghinaralul nostru a scris cateva carti care insa nu au prea fost luate in serios. Dupa introducerea si Stronach, il luam pe Pacepa in colimator (“unde e tipografia?”)

In week-end-ul ce taman a trecut, o fundatie i-a invitat pe cei doi fosti presedinti (G. W. Bush si Bill Clinton) la o sezatoare in Toronto. Frank McKenna, fost ambasador canadian in US i-a moderat si regulat.

Long time ago some band came up with a song that was supposed to dissipate fears and bring back the magic of the enchanted evening: don’t fear the reaper. It seems that my friends are now afraid that PSD will bring the amnesty law.

Dar dupa ce in prima parte m-am uitat la Andruska si plagiatul NR, aici ne uitam la DeCe si Stash de Cafeina cat si Internerd. Mi-a fost greu sa scriu acest articol, ca nu-mi place sa fiu lup moralist, dar am promis, si n-am incotro.

The stuff I haven't told you yet about Anaughtia (see previous and still unfinished, at this time, article) is on my mind, fighting its way into a sequel. But it will be a while. There are other stories for other blogs that also searching for a way out of my head. Until then, a somewhat easier subject, on Sweden.

Reportaj inimos din inima Transilvaniei despre efectul unei noi legi care interzice accesul carutelor cu cai pe arterele principale. Multi oameni vor muri de foame spun satenii din Arieseni. Sunt 750000 de carute inregistrate in Romania, si ele sunt responsabile pentru 10% din accidentele rutiere.

Desi doamna prezentata de New York Times se afla in Brasov si nu in diaspora, povestea ei ar trebui sa fie interesanta si pentru noi, daca-i interesanta pentru cei de peste ocean, din orasu' care nu doarmie niciodata.

I am EXTATIC!!!! N-am auzit de ea inainte sa fi castigat premiul Nobel, cum n-auzisem nici de francezul care a castigat in 2008, dar cu cat citesc mai mult, cu atat ma excit mai tare! E musai s-mpartasesc ce aflu cu cei 2-3 oameni care ma citesc, poate iau si eu un Hertzer sau un BlogIdol. Voi incepe sa scriu acest ghid prin a face mai mult spatiu sub birou.

Alta sarbatoare azi. Cu atatea sarbatori golite de continut primavara, este oare de mirare ca asta-i anotimpul cu cele mai multe sinucideri?!
