OBAMA WON

We knew this was bound to happen, but not even the ones that wanted it the most thouOBAMA WONght this would happen "so soon"
America has a black president, the son of an African Man, a guy that lived in Indonesia, a young man, not even 50.

Perhaps this is the greatest gift from the Bush administration, even the red states knew that change was needed, I feel sorry for senator McCain, he would have been a good president in the 90s or perhaps even in 2000, but he lost to W and then Bush stole the election and in 20004 Bush ran again and unbelievably won.

You know what?
I want to believe in the symbol the U.S. stood for again
Let us hope that President Obama won´t let us down

Hoping for the best

Today the world is waiting
Almost every single individual on the face of the earHoping for the bestth will be affected by the outcome of tomorrow’s election.

It is not a secret that I would Like for Obama to win, to change history, to redeem America of its original Sin, but I'm also aware that he might be more of a 2D character, I'm also aware of some closet racism that will make the polls look different to the final results, I know that the US wants to win the war on Iraq, and that McCain has a great deal of experience and that he might be a better commander in chief but the war on Iraq was wrong from the get to go, it is a war based on lies and that has been draining the wealth of America’s arcs for the last five years, and I have to agree with those who think that for the US to regain their moral stature they must clean the mess they've made in the middle east.

Being quite honest, Mexico and Latin America would do better in the short term with McCain in the office, but looking at the greater picture the world really needs The United States to regain balance, to tie the loose ends they've been leaving all over the planet, to clean their image and to become for once an agent of good.
I would like to dream of the US as a land where race, religion or political views no longer matter in achieving one's potential and perhaps if only to get past the "US would do good in having black president" Obama is the man, but the US and the world need more than a poster boy, Obama is too young (whereas McCain is too old and his VP choice is a complete retard) and really quite uncommon in the US.
He should not be running to make history as the first black president and I hope he isn't
People should not vote for him or avoid voting for him based on its race, on the rumors of him being a Muslim, a radical, a Jew basher, not an American, which is something I hope gets settled and we don't have to go to the long run like in 2000, when the Bush Clan stole the election.People with the right to vote on this election, please go out and do it, millions outside the US would like to be able to have their opinions listened, but we don't pay taxes over there so we should just cross our fingers and hope for the best.

Otro comercial de Softbank

La mascota de softbank se ha comprado un iPhone, y está feliz de la vida leyendo manga, cuando deja de estar solo y sus intentos de ocultar el gadget de Apple fracasan.



sábado 1 de Noviembre 2008

En algo que ya se está haciendo costumbre, el sábado no tenia nada que hacer, lo que se agradece entre las 07:00 y las 08:00, pero se vuelve muy incómodo después de las 09:00 y aunque tenía la cosquillita de ir por el rumbo de Reforma a ver las ofrendas, a sabiendas de que me encontraría mares de gente, desistí de ello y fui a comprar DVDs aprovechando que los tíos de Blockbuster tenían 50% de descuento en la compra de tres ó más, y ahí estaba Speed Racer, en su cajita y súper barata menos de $100 (que con el tipo de cambio que tenemos que agradecerle a la pendeja clase empresarial mexicana) es apenas más de 7 USD, y
¿no quería yo apoyar a los Wachowski que nos entregaron una de las cintas más infravaloradas de éste año?
, pues si, pero tampoco quería que los estúpidos de Warner en México recibiesen mi dinero por esa cinta, si alguna vez la compro será en Blu-ray y no será en México, así que después de sostener el bonito empaque en mis manos cerré los ojos y lo deje en su stand (hay que hacer notar que Warner le sigue metiendo dinero a la promoción de ésta cinta) y pase a pagar mis otras cintas, una pena que la actual presentación de "Gangster Americano" me haga pensar que me equivoque al esperarme para comprarla, y ¿que onda con Beowulf y ese precio? La cinta se queda bien corta en muchos aspectos.

De vuelta en casa me decidí a ir a donde fuera necesario para ver esa cinta que aquí recibió el título de "Inquilino Siniestro", que por algún motivo paso sin pena ni gloria por muy pocas pantallas, no se con cuantas copias abrió, pero llegó arrastrándose a su tercera semana.

Otra de mis constantes angustias tiene lugar al comprar ropa, por alguna razón me parece que aquí venden al revés los pantalones C:36 L:32, eso está simplemente mal, aparte ¿quien decidió que 32 es el largo "universal"? Eso de andar doblando los jeans podrá tener sus fans, pero yo no soy uno de ellos.
De lo que me doy cuenta es que esa sensación de saber lo que la gente quiere o necesita no es exclusiva de las distribuidoras de cine.
