São os caracois, são os caracolitos, são os espanhóis, são os espanholitos!

Quase metade dos espanhóis, 45,7%, quer a união entre Portugal e Espanha, com a maioria a defender que o novo país deve chamar-se Espanha, ter Madrid como capital e manter o regime monárquico, de acordo com uma sondagem.
A sondagem, realizada pela Ipsos para a revista Tiempo refere que o apoio à união dos dois países é particularmente elevada entre os mais jovens, dos 18 aos 24 anos, com mais de metade (50,8%) a favorecerem essa opção.
Entre os que favorecem a fusão, 43,4% dizem que o novo Estado deve chamar-se Espanha, contra 39,4% que favorecem a opção de «Ibéria», e apenas 3,3% favorece ver Lisboa como a capital do novo Estado, contra 80% que querem Madrid.
Cerca de metade dos eleitores defende que o novo estado deve manter-se com o regime monárquico, que vigora em Espanha, contra 30,2% que defendem que o «novo país» seja uma República.

Barriga cheia... ou não!

Seja por defeito educacional ou simplesmente por defeito genético , a verdade é que sempre fui apologista de uma boa refeição num bom restaurante.
É certo que me faltam jeans Calvin Klein no meu armário mas o mesmo não se pode dizer relativamente à panóplia de restaurantes que já frequentei, uns melhores que outros, uns mais caros que outros e outros que nem se quer interessam.

Aqui fica um link muito interessante para aqueles que como eu apreciam um bom almoço ou jantar.

Concorde-se ou não com o que está escrito (pessoalmente não concordo com algumas coisas) mas a verdade é que cada vez mais é preciso dizer mal para comer bem!

Toca a Votar!

Ora ai está um boa ideia vinda de uma banda que aconchega os ouvidos de qualquer um:

A escolha não é fácil mas um greatest hits com 92 músicas até a mim me parece exagerado!

History will teach us nothing...

Após ler a "Noite" do prémio nobel da paz Elie Wiesel e tendo em conta a realidade que se vive no médio oriente, não posso deixar de achar o quão actual é esta música:

If we seek solace in the prisons of the distant past

Security in human systems we're told will always always

last

Emotions are the sail and blind faith is the mast

Without a breath of real freedom we're getting nowhere

fast

If God is dead and an actor plays his part

His words of fear will find their way to a place in your heart

Without the voice of reason every faith is its own curse

Without freedom from the past things can only get worse

Sooner or later just like the world first day

Sooner or later we learn to throw the past away

Sooner or later just like the world first day

Sooner or later we learn to throw the past away

Sooner or later we learn to throw the past away

History will teach us nothing

History will teach us nothing

Our written history is a catalogue of crime

The sordid and the powerful, the architects of time

The mother of invention, the oppression of the mild

The constant fear of scarcity, aggression as its child

Sooner or later

Sooner or later

Sooner or later

Sooner or later

Convince an enemy, convince him that he's wrong

Is to win a bloodless battle where victory is long

A simple act of faith

In reason over might

To blow up his children will only prove him right

History will teach us nothing

Sooner or later the world first day

Sooner or later we learn to throw the past away

Sooner or later the world first day

Sooner or later we learn to throw the past away

Sooner or later we learn to throw the past away

History will teach us nothing

History will teach us nothing

Know you human rights

Be what you come here for

Know your human rights

Be what you come here for

Know your human rights

Be what you come here for

Know your human rights

Be what you come here for

The Edge of Heaven

Para aqueles que tal como eu gostam de uma boa "popalhada" do Yorgos Panayiotou, aqui fica um souvenir de ' 86...

I would lock you up
But I could not bear to hear you
Screaming to be set free
I would chain you up
If I'd thought you'd swear
The only one that mattered was me, me, me
I would strap you up
But don't worry baby
You know I wouldn't hurt you 'less you wanted me to

It's too late to stop
Won't the heavens save me?
My daddy said the devil looks a lot like you

You take me to the edge of heaven
Tell me that my soul's forgiven
Hide you baby's eyes and we can...
You take me to the edge of heaven
One last time might be forever
When the passion dies -
It's just a matter of time before my heart is
Looking for a home

I'm like a maniac, at the end of the day
I'm like a doggie barking at your door
So come take me back to the place you stay
And maybe we can do it once more

You say I'm dangerous
But don't worry baby
I get excited at the things that you do
And there's a place for us in a dirty movie
Cos no-one does it better than me and you

You take me to the edge of heaven
Tell me that my soul's forgiven
Hide your baby's eyes and we can...
You take me to the edge of heaven
One last time might be forever
Please don't tell me lies
It's just a matter of time before my heart is
Looking for a home

I ain't got no more worries
I'm gonna spend some times with you
Loving you takes such courage
And don't you think that I know it

You take me to the edge of heaven
You tell me that my soul's forgiven
Hide your baby's eyes and we can...
You take me to the edge of heaven
One last time might be forever
Don't you tell me lies, because believe believe
