Well my comment about Birmingham being below par as a 2nd city provoked some debate. Brummies are apparently the salt of the earth and what counts are leafy  glades not exciting cities. But I don’t think anyone tried to put it on a par with Barcelona, Milan, Lyon etc. Nobody anyway convinced me to reschedule my holidays and visit the Midlands next summer, that's for sure.

A quick glance at  history gives us the reason for the dullness of the UK’s cities. England has been throughout its history a minor remote nation of little importance. A late copier of trends created elsewhere . A poor copier at that . But for a brief period it suddenly became a major player. It found an easy way to exploit other nations. It  imported cheap food, extradited its peasants and created a mass industry. The cheap food lead the depraved and promisuous stock of peasants to breed rapidly and the population grew by leaps and bounds. The industrial shanty towns grew with their dismal terraces, now replaced by the equally dismal housing estates. This is why the UK has so many dire towns and cities.

But the rapid obtention of industrial power was just as  quickly lost. For it was built on sand. The Continental Europeans with their  trained and disciplined work forces were better suited to the production of quality value added products and services. Ever since the Brits have sought a solution to their problem. What to do with so many people who have so little talent? For you don’t create the craftmanship of Germany, nor the organisation and sense of nationhood of the French. Let alone the creativity and sense of beauty of the Italians. Either you have it or you don’t. Britain started off on the wrong foot and will never be able to change.For what can the Brits do ? What are their strengths ? Exploit foreigners ? Make cheap shoddy products ? Ah yes, be bankers but there is no need for 60 million bankers, besides they are not very good at it. And as time goes on things will get worse, a need for quality products and services will become paramount.

So what to do with the dismal towns of England ? Obviously the only solution is that they disappear from the map.  They are  a sad accident of history.  There needs to be strict population control and the country should be rolled back to some 20 million people. The size it should have been but for the anomaly of the industrial revolution.

I'm not sure whether to laugh out loud or to just feel sorry for this dog and his owners. I'll just let you decide which is the best response...

The Killers. You know these four guys from Las Vegas with their powerful indie rock songs having a partiality for British 80's Pop.

They convinced me with their debut "Hot Fuss" and "Sam's Town", so I had high expectations for their new project. Finally I could get hold of their new LP "Day & Age" for low 12 €, let's see if it can knock my socks off.

The cover is colorful and has a glance, it looks interesting. The back displays the tracklist:

01 Losing Touch

02 Human

03 Spaceman

04 Joy Ride

05 A Dustland Fairytale

06 This Is Your Life

07 I Can't Stay

08 Neon Tiger

09 The World We Live In

10 Goodnight, Travel Well

Ten songs. Not much, but that's not unusual these days.

When you listen to them, you'll notice immediately the difference to The Killers' past albums. Discobeats, synthesizers and harmonys were added to their sound. Even saxophones! It's Pop Music! Where's the Rock?

You'll find highlights pretty much as lowlights. Their hit single "Human" is one of the good things, I love this song. But there are better ones. I fell in love with "Spaceman" and "Losing Touch" which are some catchy tunes. 

"Neon Tiger" is a song which sounds a little boring. There's nothing special about this song like the songs used to be. "Day & Age" has some songs you don't expect to hear of them like "Joy Ride". It sounds like a typical song of the Black Kids, not of the Killers.

The rusults of their work are different tunes, different Killers. I guess we have some new Killers here, they stepped into musical new territory. If you like Pop Music you will love it. If you're more into Rock, you won't unless you are going to enlarge your musical horizon. It can't measure up to "Hot Fuss" or "Sam's Town", but it's nice to see that The Killers aren't stuck in only one genre.

To me The Killers' "Day & Age" is good, but not surprassing. Go and listen for yourself!

Let's get this straight Texas BEAT Oklahoma on a neutral field by 10 points. Texas lost on the last play of the game at Texas Tech 39-33. Texas won all of their other games. Oklahoma got beat by Texas by 10 on a neutral field and beat Texas Tech at home 65-21. So the BCS ratings have Oklahoma at #2 and Texas at #3 behind an undefeated(for now) Alabama team. Texas and Oklahoma each have one loss and Texas beat Oklahoma by 10 on a neutral field and Oklahoma is ranked higher than Texas, the team who beat them by 10 points. HMMMMMMMM!! Does this make any sense to anyone in the free world??? PLAYOFFS??? DON'T TALK ABOUT PLAYOFFS!!!! ARE YOU KIDDING ME???? PLAYOFFS?????

Today's Topic: My weekend Wrap Up

Well what a nice long weekend we had right!  I did a little bit of shopping but mainly a lot of eating... haha.  Thanksgiving was spent at my parent's house in Orange County... I love my family especially the little ones, my nephews and niece.  I spent most of the weekend at my sister's house in Carmel Valley though.   Omg we played Nintendo Wii the entire weekend my body is so sore from that thing.

I hope you had a good weekend too... yooooo did you watch the MTV Britney Special last night?  Sooo good huh? I felt so bad for her and how hard it is for her to have a normal life.  I'm sure MTV will re-air it over and over again in case you missed it.  I really think you should check it out.  Welp, that's pretty much it. . . check out my video from Thanksgiving at my house. Gotta love la familia:)

Xoxo,

1No te enojes por causa de los malvados,

Ni sientas envidia de los malhechores,

2Pues pronto se secan como el heno;

¡Se marchitan como la hierba!

3Confía en el Señor y haz lo bueno,

Vive en la tierra y mantente fiel. 

4Ama al Señor con ternura,

Y el cumplirá tus deseos mas profundos.

5Pon tu vida en las manos del Señor;

Confía en el, el vendrá en tu ayuda.

6Hará brillar tu rectitud y tu justicia

Como brilla el sol de mediodía.

7Guarda silencio ante el Señor;

Espera con paciencia a que el te ayude.

No te irrites por el que triunfa en la vida,

Por el que hace planes malvados.

8Deja el enojo, abandona el furor;

No te enojes, porque eso empeora las cosas.

9Pues los malvados serán arrojados del país,

Pero los que confían en el Señor tomaran posesión de el.

23 El Señor dirige los pasos del hombre

y lo pone en el camino que a el le agrada;

24aun cuando caiga, no quedara caído,

Porque el Señor lo tiene de la mano.

26 A todas horas siente compasión, y da prestado;

Sus hijos son una bendición.

31 Lleva en el corazón la enseñanza de su Dios;

¡Jamás resbalaran sus pies!

39La ayuda a los hombres buenos viene del Señor,

Que es su refugio en tiempos difíciles.

40El Señor los ayuda a escapar.

Lo hace escapar de los malvados, y los salva,

Porque en el buscaron protección.

Before I was a Mom:

I never tripped over toys or forgot words to a lullaby.
I didn't worry whether or not my plants were poisonous.
I never thought about immunizations.

Before I was a Mom:

I had never been puked on.
Pooped on.
Chewed on.
Peed on.
I had complete control of my mind and my thoughts.
I slept all night.

Before I was a Mom:
I never held down a screaming child so doctors could do tests. Or give shots.
I never looked into teary eyes and cried.
I never got gloriously happy over a simple grin.
I never sat up late hours at night watching a baby sleep.

Before I was a Mom:

I never held a sleeping baby just because I didn't want to put her down.
I never felt my heart break into a million pieces when I couldn't stop the hurt.
I never knew that something so small could affect my life so much.
I never knew that I could love someone so much.
I never knew I would love being a Mom.

Before I was a Mom:
I didn't know the feeling of having my heart outside my body.
I didn't know how special it could feel to feed a hungry baby.
I didn't know that bond between a mother and her child.
I didn't know that something so small could make me feel so important and happy.

Before I was a Mom:

I had never gotten up in the middle of the night every
10 minutes to make sure all was okay.
I had never known the warmth, the joy, the love , the heartache, the wonderment or the satisfaction of being a Mom.
I didn't know I was capable of feeling so much, before I was a Mom.

hola los saludos carinosamente, desenado esten bien. hoy empieza el mes de Diciembre, y con ella ya la Navidad, les deseo lo mejor de lo mejor en estas navidades y proximo ano 2009

She says she wants top be married again...and that's cool. I'm hoping for a Nick and Jessica Newlyweds show re-do!

I can't believe it. I finally got a prize. I got the Roomba vacuum. For those of you still trying to get a prize, starting about two minutes before the advertised time, start refreshing the page. As soon as you see the buy it button, click on it. Then type the two words as fast as you can (I've gotten the buy it button before, but after typing the words, it says it was sold out). My receipt says it was purchased at 2 o'clock and 38 seconds, so you need to be fast. Good luck!!

These two were wearing some crazy shoes! Are they hot?? or not??
