I fixed the music yesterday. It seems to work for a day and then just fall silent. Very extrano. It's extranio, when you pronounce it. I don't have the spanish thingy they put on the n. The tilde, I mean. I will fix it again today and it will not work tomorrow. I could go on like this forever. Also I forgot to say, thank you all for your opinions on the last post. I am sorry if you were not in the mood for it. Numbers X and XI here are somewhat good news I am reporting. Again I am sorry if you are not in the mood. This is the last last time I promise.

What's your desktop? mine right now is a French stamp for Evariste Galois. Before, it was Yuri Gagarin. Before, it was a music score. Before, it was Buzz Alldrin. Before, it was a Kandinski painting...before that I was born.

What is your screen saver? I don't have one. I prefer the blank screen. Like my mind.

As much as I dislike going to bed, I have to say the moment right after waking up is one of my favourite. I feel so fresh and usually I am not thinking of anything.

I was thinking the other day, Very theoretically, how hard it must be to impersonate someone. Like in the film Catch me if you can. Di Caprio pretends to be a whole bunch of other people. That is allready very hard. Even harder, is impersonating a specific person, like in Gathaka. It's hard.

You have to learn all their gestures, how they walk, their accent. You must remember everything about them. You need to be very smart. There is also so much psychological pressure. The real you remains blocked all the time.

Do you know the design of the numeral we use, like 1 2 3..., I can't remember if these are called arabic or indian nuemrals, comes from each symbol having as much angles as the number it represents. The numbers 1 and 2 originally look like this : 1 , Z so 1 has one angle and 2 has two.

Isn't that so interesting. I am so interested +P

Relatively good news: The Guardian and Israeli newspaper Ydeote Ahronote have reported that the US gave israel the green light for only one more week. They will be allowed to bomb until Monday, according to these two newspapers. Then the US will ask for ceasefire.

Meanwhile (Time magazine) all foreigners have been evacuated from Lebanon. Lebanese people are very scared. They are saying that now that the foreigners are gone, anything could be allowed against them. Time magazine mentioned.

Also relatively good news: All the refugees from this war are in Syria and they are (according to Agence France Press) receiving very good treatment. A country-wide blood donation campaign is open to help the wounded. Hospitals are receiving them for free. Also they are all housed in school and university dorms -since it is the summer, schools and unis are empty!- so they all have "real" houses not tents. A phone number was created for families who wish to receive a refugee family in their home. So some refugees will be "guests" (if the word can be used in these conditions) of volunteer families. (All this in the AFP report.) ...Some excellent work by the local red cross and red crescent organizations.

Today I was walking where all the homeless people sleep behind my neighborhood. In fact I live in a somewhat rich neighborhood. Howver, behind it there is a poorer one. The homeless people sleep between the two. One of them, who sells African clothes and gadgets sometimes, was listening to Rachmaninov's concerto number 2. I was like, wow.

It was incredible but today I had some paperwork to do and a French government employee was helpful. This is like a palnetary alignment. You will read, if you read the book about France -we keep talking about to the extent that I do not want to mention it's name anymore - how grumpy a French government employee can be.

Loius XIV is now beig honoured by me as I read number 14. I would have loved to be this guy. He was so idle. Idleness is an ideal by itself to me. Doing nothing..
