THE FABLE:"THE DOG & THE DOGGY" by GRIGORE ALEXANDRESCU

As for me, how hateful are some beasts, as wolves, bears, lions and some others, who think of themselves as being a treasure! If they descended from a noble family, that's only a happenstance! I may be noble otherwise, but I don't like to show it. People often say that, in civilized countries, there is equality. Everything changes and is carving in the world, only ourselves do not lose the pride. As for me, I gladly say that everybody, beast or lowly dog, knows and calls me real dog and not your lordship.

 So spoke, the other day with an ox, Samson, a big yard dog, that barks very loud. 

Samurache, a doggy, that sat aside as a simple spectator, hearing their case, and neither pride nor vain whims, was coming closer, to show the love he has for them: "Thinking of you, he said, your thinking seems to me wonderful, and I honor your feeling, my brothers." - 

"we, your brothers? Samson replied furious: We, your brothers, pooch?! I'll give you a beat you will remember! Do you know, cheeky toady, who we are and it shall fall to you, to address to us? "-

" But you said ... "-

" And what do you care? I ask you what I meant? I was truly speaking, that I don't love the pride and I hate the lions; I want equality, but not for doggies. "
Between us (the humans) we see it often, and only we want equality with the mightiest.

PS I tried to do an accurate translation from Romanian of the fable "the dog and the doggy" by Grigore Alexandrescu

DE PE DEAL, DREPT LA SPITAL! (Partea II)

  2. SPITALUL      La spital mi s-au facut mai multe investigatii, intr-un mod civilizat…. probabil! Eram drogata cu Morfina asa ca nu mi-am dat seama. Oricum, Calin mi-a spus ca pentru analizele de sange am fost intepata de mai multe ori de o tanara pe a carei ecuson scria: Practicant, iar eu nu am reactionat in vreun fel. Mi s-a luat tensiunea si apoi sange intr-unul din   separeurile   unei incaperi mari, despartite unele de altele de niste perdele din plastic albastre si dotate cu paturi de spital albe, pe roti.   Apoi am fost dusa, in carucior, de un infirmier zambaret, pe un culuar care mi se parea ca nu se mai termina, din cauza curentului ingrozitor, la sala de radiologie, unde mi-a fost scanat toracele. Acolo erau niste tinere destul de binevoitoare…. probabil! Inapoi in separeu, unde mi s-a dat un recipient, destul de mare, dintr-un material ca al cofrajelor de oua, pentru examenul de urina.   M-am descurcat bine, probabil, f...

YOUTUBERII ROMANI, sau CREATORII (mai mult sau mai putin) DE CONTINUT (mai mult sau mai putin de calitate)

VLOGGERI, INFLUENCERI, PODCASTERI in viziunea mea, de aici de pe deal din UK”! pe care ii urmaresc, mai mult sau mai putin regulat, chiar daca apreciez munca lor. Din postarile unora dintre ei, razbat, pana la urechile mele, urmele unei trasaturi unice a caracterului romanesc, in care un alt roman nu poate fi mai destept si mai frumos decat el/ea (cel ce posteaza).   Cele mai prezente clipuri pe YouTube, (cu cele mai multe vizualizari), sunt cele muzicale: manelele (urmarite de categoria cea mai mare de romani cu o educatie mai mult sau mai putin indoielnica), muzica creata pentru auditoriul foarte tanar si….restul genurilor. NOAPTEA TARZIU – o trupa compusa din 3 tineri, pe care am descoperit-o de curand si care m-a surprins placut nu numai cu muzica lor dar si cu prezentarea. Destepti baieti! Urmeaza continutul facil, care nu oboseste creierul, pentru adolescenti, continutul pentru copii si…..restul.   Oricum, privesc la toate genurile de clipuri, in functie de chefu...

IN THE MEMORY OF JUDIE REGLER - A TRUE STORY WITH A TRAGIC END

FROM THE SERIES: FROM THE HILL,  STRAIGHT TO HOSPITAL    I personally met Judie in May 2007 when I first came to the UK. From then until the end of 2017 I kept in touch by emails and in person, she being one of the very few humans that contributed, beneficial, to the change of our destiny, Calin's and mine.   In 2007 Judie was an active woman; she did not have a family near her, but she had many friends and many more acquaintance. She was honest, maybe too honest, and tried, as much as she could, to help, without discriminating, humiliating or demanding advantages of any kind. Sometimes she behaved strange, she said it was due to a mental illness she'd suffered since childhood. We, myself and Calin, have put these actions of her on the fact that she had too much confidence in what people say, especially psychiatrists and occult groups with whom she was in constant contact, and especially because she drank too much whiskey.   Because this article is pa...
