We finally got that puppy we've been talking about for a long time!
Well we is too many people. Katya looked for the breeder and took care of the whole thing. I just play with him!
His original name is Belguese. It's a funny story, we wanted a chocolate color puppy and wanted to name him the same as people form Belgium (famous for chocolate) are called. We thought they were called Belguese, a side effect of speaking English as a second language! So well, it was even better, even a new word!

BUT... her parents didn't like the name, and this and that, and they renamed him (sobs) Charly. I don't call him that though. He's still Belguese to me. "Belguese Patas Blancas." (Belguese the White Feet).

So anyway, here are the pictures!

If I ever want to afford that BMW I'm going to have to manage my money better, so no more cable TV.
I mean, why have it when I can download any show I want with a torrent?

I'm paying like $130/mo for cable when I could just pay the $45 for high speed internet and get my TV that way. After all most of the stuff I watch daily are repeats and I watch them on my TiVo. So here's a list of the new shows I actually care to have cable for:

• Lost
• Rome (HBO)
• The 4400
• Family Guy
• South Park
• The Colbert Report
• Heroes - ehh...
• Stargate Atlantis - the new season maybe and
• Клуб (Club) a Russian MTV show, but that one has to be over the internet anyway 'cause I don't have satellite... so
  

And that's about it, I think... Now one thing I should invest on is a DVD burner, that way I can still watch it on TV. So with that and uTorrent + mininova.org you save +/- $85/mo.

How do you handle phone calls from telemarketers?

Easy. I tell them the person they're calling... is... deceased.
They apologize, remove the number from the list and never call me again!

A Scientific Proof of Hell

What's the next country you want to visit? 
Submitted by Schomer.

I want to go to Europe ending the trip in Amsterdam. Then I'd like to go to Dubai and see what the whole buzz is about. 

So last Thursday I left work and everything was fine and normal. I was kind of happy next day would be Friday and finally the weekend. Not that it has been any good anyway.

Friday morning I get into my car and I complain to myself about the shitty weather. I hate gloomy days. So it was raining in Orlando and now I had to drive 60 miles to work in the turnpike with that weather.

As I leave my house, I'm listening to the radio and I'm listening about some pretty bad storms with tornadoes that happened last night. To my surprise they said that the city of Lady Lake got the worst of it. Two tornadoes or so. That's when I wake up. That's where I work!

Right after that my phone rings and it's my boss' partner asking me if I heard the news. Of course I did so I keep on going to Lady Lake.

When I get there all seems fine, no big deal until at some point in the road the traffic gets heavy and I can see about 400 meters away all the TV stations antennas. Soon I understand how a tornado works. Everything is OK except for the power lines which are all down. And then I can see a line - literally - about the width of 4 lanes... All the trees on the left side of the street are down and the field is completely clean. In the medium are the cops, red cross, national guard and some inmates as well as the TV reporters. To my right I see a pile of rubble a debris from a church that just yesterday stood there, beyond that I see some homes destroyed but I keep driving.

I got to my work and got it but there's nothing to do. There's  no power, no phone or computers. Nothing happened to the our building but I really doubt there'll be any customers. So we closed for the day.

I was really sad to hear on the news that 20 people - so far - died because of the tornadoes. I specially felt really sad to hear about this 17-year-old girl called Brittany May who died in her bedroom after a tree crushed it. It sucks because there was no warning, it happened in the middle of the night and they were probably all asleep. And it specially sucks because she was a mother.

I went to the girl MySpace wanting to leave a comment and I noticed that nobody had left a comment on her page for like a month - since January, but suddenly everyone posted something for her on February 3rd, when she was already dead and couldn't read it. So that made me  think, now they miss her and many couldn't say good-bye. No one could expect this to happen.

So I thought a lot how in one hour somebody's life can change so drastically and I think it's a really good idea to be positive and happy every second you can and make sure the people around you know what they mean to you so that if one day something like that happens you don't feel guilt over not demonstrating you cared while it still mattered.

I'm out for now.

A FRENCH CORPORATION
You have two cows. You go on strike because you want three cows.

Of the "pale blue dot," astronomer Carl Sagan said, "That's here. That's home. That's us. On it everyone you love, everyone you know, everyone you ever heard of, every human being who ever was, lived out their lives. The aggregate of our joy and suffering, thousands of confident religions, ideologies, and economic doctrines, every hunter and forager, every hero and coward, every creator and destroyer of civilization, every king and peasant, every young couple in love, every mother and father, hopeful child, inventor and explorer, every teacher of morals, every corrupt politician, every 'superstar,' every 'supreme leader,' every saint and sinner in the history of our species lived there — on a mote of dust suspended in a sunbeam."
