In the last post, I don't know how long ago, I had some problems with paranoia. Since then I have had few very fast incidents. Half a minute tops.
I had a fight with Brasil Telecom over ip packeds they were denying me, even tryied up proxy tunneling to avoid the traffic shaping. Nothing worked. I'm going to GVT if they allow me.
School started, again those 2th level ambiguities of natural language and the formalizations of a particular logic game. Again those medieval freaks with unsolvabilities of the 7th century. Again that kantian blabber of anal-retention 101. But, seriously, that's all simple and good. You just learn how to play every particular language game they propose.
New TV, little addiction. Images larger and pretty. I had given away my tv in the late nineties, after Seinfeld and other very good written comedy shows had got into me, and it was hard to leave from the view. Then I found out it is the same. The screen is with me.
I watched a couple of relevant movies. I'm lazy to go and seek for the Bergman swedish names, but "Scenes from a Marriage" and "En passion". I have watched "A Scanner Darkly" and pieces of "Ultimo Tango a Parisi". Went to see the Win Wenders I had commented here before, "Estrela Solitária".
Fabinca remains my only concern. I'm fat and becoming a big old loser, and she's such a princess doll. I don't deserve it, that's for sure. That's all the dharma I need.
And I'm going to see Dzongsar Khyentse Rinpoche again. It will be so damn profound. Vajrayana directly from him. Pretty good second half of the year, I'll say.

Funniest mindless movie of the last few years. McLovin is the best, and the other guys grew on me.
In his job he needs to undervalue the suffering of others in order to make more money. Then there’s the smell, the ass and the eye. The degree of objectification of desire is in direct proportion to the self-debasement of the indulger. By degrading the other, he nullifies himself. The very indifference to the overjealous ones, the suppressed recalcitrant losers of the world, is what causes their victims to exist. Great disturbing movie.
A lost science fiction PBS movie with Taoist undertones is a real find, right? A guy discovers his dreams change reality—when he wakes up he finds himself in a world where the content of his dreams have actually happened. He of course gets scared after a couple of nightmares, seeks relief in drugs, and then, because of them, is lead to a psychiatrist. 
Here's for all the sissy Apple lovers out there... This is the ultimate design for my old Duron, which faithfully downloaded well over one terabyte (mostly movies, 1300+) always on 24/7/365 over the last four years. It also runs Apache and is a file and printer server, as well as a router for my home network (with four, also damn old and beautiful computers). Sometimes I dust it off with a vacuum cleaner.
I really enjoyed 
I have read the article on
In imdb a user commented: "Annoying little transition into some sort of regurgitated independent film values finds this shallow project from Brad Silberling offering little and providing less in this embarrassingly exploitive work." I agree, yet it is still watchable — even more so if you understand how clichê is the fabricated spontaneity in it. It is as if independent movie has aquired its own hollywood-like formulaicism. So it kind of becomes an interestingly consumated aesthetic portrail of so many cult-status fabricated stylishness examples we see around. Many people liked
