Odd in a kind of freakish way
Pre-destination. I recall this worm in my belly. It used to be that I felt predestined to be a writer and it often permeated a great deal of my everyday life more oft than not in my love affairs. This is quite intrinsic to Americans, specially the WASP kind and by default those they embrace…

Lieutenant Ehren Watada
I haven’t seen much clamoring on the American blogsphere regards Lieutenant Ehren Watada. In fact technorati gives a graphic whereby we can see its reader cause and effect. Some of the big honchos on the net and which tend to attract large crowds to their jangle are also somewhat mysteriosly quiescent on the issue. The…

Agonista me?
Am rather amused at the fact that I can post stuff at the Agonist. It just tickles my belly to no end. Off course, the fear that I might not do as expected haunts me like the Llorona does to every kid with mexican blood world over. Do I expect to be censured? Of course,…

Ordinary people like you and me in Israel-Palestine
Is ra el Nothing but Is-ra-el. Poor israeli citizens. They must have some kind of post traumatic disorder in full swing by now. They never rest. I don’t care how tough they are am telling you, keep it. I’d rather live in México or Sweden any day of the world than in Israel. That God…

patriarchism strikes again
Reading this sent revulsions of all sorts down my spine. The most famous record of slave life, Frederick Douglass’s “Narrative,” rendered vividly the vile mix of lust and domination practiced by slave owners. This is a bunch of poo in the loo in my eyes. The most famous is by far Incidents in the Life…

Mexican elections 2006
Well, let’s git to the knilly willy of the ninny lilly. Elections in México, el suspenso is killing me. I wrote in my spanish blog that Calderón was already a winner, ooops, it’s a cultural thing would say this guy who contradicted the IFE’s version of the early poll results arguing that the northern states…

short tale of long trip
I was away. I went to Germany, enjoyed Bavaria; passed by Austria, saw Innsbruck by the roadway and spent quite a few days in northen Italy, specifically in the in and around the Brenner Pass. I came quite close to Milano but never got there. Though I did get to see some of Bergamo and…

mumble mumble grumble …
I said what I had to say on Israel long time ago. Israel is a bully, period. And the more I read about others thinking along the lines as I do, the more I think that am not too off in my own thinking regards Israel. […] the Israeli army, once the finest in the…

one for the money
Has the Pentagon changed its mind? Because it seems to me that more and more the MSM talks, walks and quacks like a liberal blog. What ever happened to respectable types the likes of 60 minutes …. Is it just me?

The Secret Politicians
Wish the Kos gang would have been around the turn of the 19th century, heck, what am I saying, just a few decades ago. History here. I have never liked the terms latino nor hispanic though I advocate latino more than I will ever do Hispanic. It seems that whenever the ‘majority’ in the US…
