Me siento aventurero. El 9 de febrero iré a Arkansas a visitar a …. En realidad no sé qué hacer de todo esto (qué significa) aunque es demasiado yo, i.e., muy típico de mí. ¿Y qué? A caso esta vez me dejaré arrastrar hasta tierras aún más lejanas? No, todo con calma esta vez, aunque…

I’ve been meaning to write on this (Danish Muslims Take Anti-Prophet Cartoons to EU) for some time, and now seems like the right moment to do so. I think this issue illustrates the problem with Islam, i.e., religion. We in the West live in societies that are governed by the rule of law. When man…

Before I begin this, I must apologize. What is to follow may seem like a passage out of Proust. But I can assure you, it is a passage out of my life. My life has never been exciting, at least, I would never apply this word to it. No, perhaps a bit under the ordinary.…

¡Feliz día de los reyes magos! In the Spanish-speaking world, this is our Christmas, at least it once was, but now, this this whimsical phenomenon called globalization, the differences are disappearing.

The temptation was much too strong and I was reduced to slapping seriously considered and calculated amounts to hamburger buns, af if any amount…

Life is so damn fucking funny … sometimes. Nota bene: fuck is my new pejorative; decadent please place yourself on stand-by. Amen. But seriously, fuck is such a fantastic word; it can be anything. It’s sort of God-like but never corporeal mind you! But seriously now, for the intent of this … whatever this is;…

As I wend down life’s path, as she places before me her patina of goodies, raw and bear, I am deeply disturbed. But I am only disturbed when I remove myself from the instant, when I detach myself as if in a pathetic attempt to be objective, and analyze what is taking place or has…
