COFFEE BREAK: Io che amo solo te - Sergio Endrigo
IO CHE AMO SOLO TE - Sergio Endrigo
C'è gente che ha avuto mille cose,
tutto il bene, tutto il male del mondo.
Io ho avuto solo te
e non ti perderò,
non ti lascerò
per cercare nuove avventure.
C'è gente che ama mille cose
e si perde per le strade del mondo.
Io che amo solo te,
io mi fermerò
e ti regalerò
quel che resta
della mia gioventù.
Io ho avuto solo te
e non ti perderò,
non ti lascerò
per cercare nuove illusioni.
C'e' gente che ama mille cose
e si perde per le strade del mondo.
Io che amo solo te,
io mi fermerò
e ti regalerò
quel che resta
della mia gioventù.
Para você mãe... Te amo! Read more...

Got Tan?
If you have black or brown hair, and been to the beach lately working on your tan, you may consider staying away from Arizona!
Racial profiling?
Could it be? Nahhhh… Republicans? Conservatives? Racists? Nahhh…. Imagine that… We are talking about well educated people here, very aware of their own heritage, right? But just in case (better safe than sorry), you might want to forget that dragon tattoo you’ve been saving money for, and consider branding your caboose with your Alien number. (Don't you love that word? “Alien.” I just thought of a great Halloween costume. Anyway...)
How easily we forget...
President Obama mentioned the words, “Misguided Law.” Darn right it is. Sure we should stop illegal immigration. (By the way, forget about Bimbo Land and say goodbye to Consuelo raising your own children for $3.00 an hour while you spend all day putting up the façade and helping your psychiatrist hack up the bonus to fly to the Cayman Islands for vacation.) But every case is a DIFFERENT case, and this law will be a great fertilized shitty spread for racism, and some Narcissistic, & Anti-social Personality Disorders to thrive; or should I say bigotry, fear, and ignorance? So you assimilated, became acculturated, went through all the hoops and lovely welcoming smiles to become legal, yet, the truth is that some of your comrades just tolerate you. Pity!
I just hope the power trip doesn’t get over the top and they end up scarring some good folks for life.Geeezzz… Enough of this “papo sinistro.” Friday is half way here, and while this wave doesn’t reach my shore, my @$$ is going to the beach. Just in case, I got the tattoo join lined up to brand everybody’s birth certificates on their backs. Yeah, right... Fala sério!
XOXOXO,Cheers!

Where did the years go?
Hello world,
Yesterday I attended my daughter’s 8th grade graduation. What a feeling! It’s so amazing to see these young children grown and develop into vigorous and aspiring young adults. I remember when my daughter and her friends used to run around the house happy as a lark, watching “Dexter’s Laboratory”, or “CatDog,” eating their hot dogs, trading their Yugioh Cards, and playing Super-Mario without a care in the world.
Today they are skyping with their friends, texting 24/7, hooked on XBox 360, worried about what clothes to wear, thinking they are in love (I just remembered the horse track TV commercial, “run baby, run!”), aware of the importance of GPA & SAT scores to get into a good college, aspiring MIT, Duke, and Harvard, taking honors and AP classes, feeling the pressure, and planning on getting their driver’s license permit. Wow!
As I saw them all dressed up in their suits, elaborate dresses, & high heels, receiving their awards, and making deep speeches concerning the future, I was incredibly proud and could feel a whole sense of accomplishment fill up the auditorium. What a memorable night it was! I was also thinking I needed to pay a visit to a dermatologist, find myself some serious hair stylist, and double check if Pitanguy still around. Where did the years go?
XOXOXO,
Cheers!

May 25th - It’s been 150 days without you!
It’s been five months without you mom... No more phone calls, no more pouring out my frustrations or celebrating good moments, getting advice, cracking up jokes, laughing, telling stories, and no more anticipating the moment of arrival to give you that big hug... I wonder if things would’ve been different if I never left, or if they had allowed you to come and see me. It’s all too late now, isn't it?… Forgive me for not being there, mom. I've been lost without you. There's no one to really talk to anymore, and I miss you deeply!
Eu amo você, mãe!
Tá difícil...
The love story of Ralph and Edna...
Just because someone doesn't love you the way you want them to, doesn't mean they don't love you with all they have. Ralph and Edna were both patients in a mental hospital.
One day while they were walking past the hospital swimming pool. Ralph suddenly jumped into the deep end. He sank to the bottom of the pool and stayed there. Edna promptly jumped in to save him. She swam to the bottom and pulled him out. When the Head Nurse Director became aware of Edna's heroic act she immediately ordered her to be discharged from the hospital, as she now considered her to be mentally stable.
When she went to tell Edna the news she said, 'Edna, I have good news and bad news. The good news is you're being discharged, since you were able to rationally respond to a crisis by jumping in and saving the life of the person you love. I have concluded that your act displays sound mindedness.
The bad news is, Ralph hung himself in the bathroom with his bathrobe belt right after you saved him. I am so sorry, but he's dead.' Edna replied, 'He didn't hang himself, I put him there to dry. How soon can I go home?
XOXOXO,
Cheers!
