...and more
third post in three days?
It looks like I am on fire or very bored. But the truth is that I woke up at noon, it is almost raining outside and I feel like writing something instead of going through Sunday afternoon melancholy.
Sundays are not that bad when you feel like doing nothing and provided you are well equipped with a comfortable sofa, some nice films, books, newspapers and music everything works out almost perfect. You may be a bit frustrated reading that one guy got killed in riots in Talin, Estonia as a follow-up of bringing down a monument to Soviet soldiers from the local government. It looks like people in Estonia (and also Latvia, Lithuania and so on) are being juuuuuuuuust a little bit over-sensible against the Soviets forgetting that they were actually fighting the Nazis! It looks a bit stupid bringing down monuments to people that lost their lives against the Wermacht while openly allowing neonazis to march around the cities with the excuse of being anti-communists.
Stupidity, they say is infinite and they may be right!
Anyhoooo...I am overcoming my afternoon frustration with seeps of Greek coffee (OK it's turkish, or actually arab), listening to Brad Mehldau's Trio covering Nick Drake (Day is Done, look it up it's really cool) and "youtubing" the best of Johan Cruyff! coming up is me with my book of narratives by Marguerite Yurcenar on a strict 180 degrees position on the couch and later on come the games of the day from la Sexta! ("Football con fatatas!")
thus, I 'll just follow a great advice and won't get bitter on this Sunday evening. A new week starts tomorrow, which in addition is a week with one day off and Champions League semifinals!

The situation in Estonia is really awful. Crazy people... I think they don't understand what they do.
