Allergy From Waxing Eyebrows

False Start

Imagine the scene: after a night spent trying to fight sleep, finally managed to get on the plane that takes you on vacation. Were finally able to sit back and indulge in the arms of Morpheus sure that, at that point, the bulk is done.

At one point the awakening, almost annoyed by the interruption to your well-deserved sleep, look out the window and you realize that are flying.

almost surprised, you wonder if you actually reached its destination and, with your great disappointment you discover that you are not even taken off. And your already great disappointment can only increase when you discover that the estimated time for take-off has passed for a while '. Maybe it's the fault of the snow falls incessant, you'll think you ...

Here these are the premises of a shitty day. All because an "airport" Swedish (the quotation marks is a must when it comes to Skavsta, the Italians Scaccsta) was taken by surprise by the breakdown of the machine used for spreading de-icing of aircraft wings. The anti-freeze in December? In Sweden? But you see ...

Obviously there was proof that the world is a place and see if the Swedish professionalism has been sorely tested by the deadly combo "on Sunday, three days after Christmas," which inevitably will be added to the "fika of 11 "(and later Italian politicians speak of the Swedes as people dining at a work station ...).

fact is that, thanks to the "security policy" in the plane we were closed from 6.45 to 13.15, hours during which the flight was indeed canceled by order of Ryanair's HQ somewhere in Ireland.

Double Facepalm - for when one facepalm doesn't cut it

At this point you end up in the tragicomic. No, just tragic.

Tragic because, in spite of the more obvious safety rule, the airport exploded among those people who had gathered in the morning, oblivious to those who came to take their flight and that inevitably landed.

Now Fail did not contradict itself, and chose to handle it the hard way. Instead of maintaining the flight as a single, toh look, a flight, those crazy Irish thirst for money (but they were not the Scots?) Preferred to ensure that each of the poor refugees through the website to book a place in the flight the next few days, creating to increased Prices do not indifferent. As if there were vacancies to accommodate an entire aircraft, among others.

In my case, the flight to Ciampino Airport on Monday was already full and on Wednesday 23 was already almost full. In fact we should have nearly all shifted to Friday 25. Considering that I should go back the same Sunday, I had already mentally prepared to spend Christmas in Stockholm. Not that it would make me mad, though, if not start, I was invited to lunch on Christmas Day by a Swedish-Italian family involved in this epic-fail.

Fortunately, the Angel of the Home Teleservices has come to my help finding a flight for tomorrow. A day off disgraced, but amen.

I can only accompany this post with a picture circulating on the internet. (Click to enlarge)

My Fart Mmade Me Throw Up

The wise and the Moon

An old Chinese proverb states:

When the wise points at the moon, the fool looks at the finger

course, may seem more ironic approach to the figure Massimo Tartaglia to that of a wise, especially now that it was found that the boy had been undergoing psychiatric treatment for ten years. But as they say, is there that "I want to end up."

I state that I am convinced that a measure such as that which we have seen lament the other day because the use of violence is wrong regardless. But maybe the point is just that.

Berlusconi e Tartaglia

All of us we had to discuss on the act itself, which is just, but few, indeed no one has asked what prompted a person to do what he did, regardless of of premeditation.

Berlusconi, dopo l'aggressione subita a Milano

Still, everyone was angry Facebook groups sprung up from nothing in some way glorify the act of Tartaglia, but no one wonders why all these people have acted in that way.

Or maybe they do not see the damage.

However, I find that the act of externalization of the Tartaglia is just what many, many people would like to do but, thank God, no one does thanks to the millions of inhibitions that centuries of history have taught us .

Il mona leso

Some say that the difference between a madman and healthy is that it does what he thinks, the second stop when you can not believe that thing is wrong.

that Mr. Tartaglia is a fool, but nobody denies that, deep down, I believe that he is also an essay and I hope that someone will stop and start looking at the finger looking at the moon.

After all, all the enamel of the world can not imitate the spectacle of a beautiful full moon.

How To Adjust Cliff Headgear

Blogg ergo live 2 / 2

The next day, a little 'unmade by the evening before, I devote myself to cleaning the house with extraordinary slowness: I basically only the dishes and tidying the living room.

Finally, despite an attempted sabotage by the pizza I had chosen, I have occasion to celebrate the birthday with my Italian friends. In the end the choice is the excellent "La Ciociara " where there is the best pizza with mozzarella di bufala: great place to try to ease the longing of the taste buds.

Tavolata al "La Ciociara" di Stoccolma

After dinner, if I were a naughty child, I dragged some of them dancing at Patricia's where, despite a reputation is not good, I found the best DJs around Stockholm stuff that I could not break away the dance even for a time to drink. To Patricia were joined by Anne and Annika, the two girls with whom I had made that beautiful barbecue in August. Although the two girls were a little tipsy, the evening went quite quiet, and around 4:30 I was in bed sleeping.

pity that the alarm was sounded shortly thereafter, at 9.00 to be precise. In fact, the last stage This weekend was the dreaded endless julbord (a kind of Christmas Eve, but composed of an infinite number of tiny courses). Lunch was really good and I will never cease to compliment Mauro, and Giuseppe David for the organization.

course, despite being back home at 17.00, but with 4 hours of sleep behind the stomach and an epic binge drinking as epic in the liver, I threw myself into bed and I closed the chapter "week-end "a few hours in advance.

How To Tie A Bandana Snowboarding

Blogg ergo live 1 / 2

I do not want the good René Descartes, the Descartes century, but the distortion is a must since the long weekend just past.

Yeah, because even birthday because it fell on a Thursday, Thursday is that I sleep very little and drink. Indeed

Thursday after work, I went to take a couple of beers with a colleague / friend. The problem is, that being her Swedish pair means a number that falls in a neighborhood of 5 pints. All this was aided by a band that was performing live at the Dubliner's of Hötorget. Even if they were not as good as those of the previous Wednesday, they were able to bring some 'of people on the track. The fact is that in the end I came home with 2 passes, and the alarm sounded at 6.30 am the next day.

After the usual 8 hours of work, we went to the nearby Tudor Arms, where we had a couple of beers offered by the company. The next stop was the Slow Stureplan where, finally, we got the award for achievements during the month of November. In fact the whole evening had been organized as a reward and in fact all expenses were paid by the company. After dinner in the restaurant, where a colleague offered me a birthday-cocktail, we went around to various bars and could not miss the obvious in a taxi ride, despite the T-Bana work flawlessly.

Between one thing and the other at the end we were at my house where we killed a few bottles of Aglianico. And between wine and challenges in Street Fighter IV on the XBox, the evening ended around 3.40, to the delight of neighbors.

Here is a picture of the day!

Welcome Script For Marriage Party

No B-Day to Stockholm

December 5 was an important date in Italy, at least for part of the electorate. E 'useless for me to tell you what the Day No Berlusconi then I will just say one thing: it's great to see the photos from around the world who have come together to show their dissent against an Italian politician and what he represents.

I will not go into details of the political question, and I hope that the commentators fail to take this course of action, and if I do this post is just to point the finger on the international nature of this event, which I was really impressed.

Here you can find the album of photos collected by the newspaper La Repubblica .

Even here in Stockholm, thanks to the interest of some Italians, we were able to organize, in our small demonstration affiliated with the Roman parade. Certainly nothing comparable to the numbers in Sydney or London, but even if there were only 30, has been a wonderful tune Nybroplan in the dark of night stoccolmese the National Anthem and songs such as Hello Beautiful. In addition to reading the many processes of care and many more ad-personam made during these 15 years of berlusconesimo.

Here is the video posted on Youtube.
