DON'T PANIC!

Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy
by Douglas Adams(1952-2001)
(a trilogy in five parts)

It's great! My favourite book is now a movie! I haven't watched it yet, so I can't recommend it, but I tell you, you MUST read the book! It's hilarious!("A door opened and closed in the Universe, for no apparent reason. That is because Reason, was in fact out to lunch")!!Note that the "Babel Fish" is a feature in the book and not something Altavista invented!

PS. Douglas Admas also wrote "Dr Who"(remember the series?). The "Hitchhiker's Guide.." first appeared as a BBC radio series in 1978 BBC Hitchhiker's

"enchufe"

Habia hace unos meses en el canal frances TV5, un programa en que, personas biligues, contaban sus palabras favoritas en cada idioma, y decian las razones por las que habian elejido cada palabra.
Es verdad que hay frases que solo se pueden decir en un idioma. Hay veces que quiero decir algo y para expresarlo mejor, me sale una frase inglesa o francesa o espanola o griega que lo exprime mejor.

Para hoy voy a poner la palabra "enchufe", que me suena divertida y no se porque pero cuando la oigo recuerdo a los pitufos!!!

Introduction

Hola a todos!
A new blog is born! Through these pages I'll try to explain what's going on in my troubled mind. I invite you to do the same. I write in different languages and I don't translate my articles (mainly because it's boring).Please don't answer back in Chinese.(neither Japanese,Dimitri. Nor Russian,Guillaume.) Have fun!

CATS " Memory" (..kai sfiggei h agkalitsa ;-) Ksereis esy...)

Daylight
See the dew on the sunflower
And a rose that is fading
Roses whither away
Like the sunflower
I yearn to turn my face to the dawn
I am waiting for the day . . .

Midnight
Not a sound from the pavement
Has the moon lost her memory?
She is smiling alone
In the lamplight
The withered leaves collect at my feet
And the wind begins to moan

Memory
All alone in the moonlight
I can smile at the old days
I was beautiful then
I remember the time I knew what happiness was
Let the memory live again

Every streetlamp
Seems to beat a fatalistic warning
Someone mutters
And the streetlamp gutters
And soon it will be morning

Daylight
I must wait for the sunrise
I must think of a new life
And I musn't give in
When the dawn comes
Tonight will be a memory too
And a new day will begin

Burnt out ends of smoky days
The stale cold smell of morning
The streetlamp dies, another night is over
Another day is dawning

Touch me
It's so easy to leave me
All alone with the memory
Of my days in the sun
If you touch me
You'll understand what happiness is

Look
A new day has begun
