I bought my ticket for Jamiroquai's show! Yay!
So, some of you may be wondering about one of my latest moods (no, not "In the shower". That one's pretty clear. Of course that, by now, I've been in the shower for 3 days in a row. I want the world's record. And [ally] has reasons to complain about me spending all the water :P ): "Let's sue".
Here's the thing: There's a newspaper that a few months ago started to edit a humor magazine with the sunday edition. Or something like that. I never bought it. In any case, in their radio, TV and newspaper ads they've been using a slogan that says "Se viene el absurdaje" (impossible to translate, I think, so I won't even try). That slogan is based in something that a TV star said like 2/3 years ago.
Curiously, that slogan has been used before. Long time before. In the middle of 2004. By UPMA! We are the creators of that. Not only that, but we know that at least one person in the staff of that magazine has read UPMA. Needless to say, we are less than happy about it.
The interesting part is that we, unlike most fanzines, actually registered most of our production. We are "serious" that way. Therefore, we have proofs that they copied us. So, we've already talked with our lawyer (it's the subdirector of the place where one of the UPMAs work and will represent us for free) and we are seeing what we can do.
The idea isn't to go to court but send a letter and have some kind of meeting to see what they offer. If they don't offer anything, then we'll start the legal work. So, we are suing! (We should be getting together with the lawyer one of these days to see how much or what he wants to ask for. I'll update later).
Posted by [Viking] in one of the forums today. You all (well, not all, only some of you) know how I feel about suicide and how I like to make humor with death and other nasty things. So, this was perfect for me :P

Five years, one t-shirt
I'm currently wearing an Oasis t-shirt. It's new, even though it features the old members of the band. Still, the two important ones are there, even though Liam kinda looks like a woman. Anyway, there's a story with this shirt.
Before I started working in the comicbook shop where I work I was a customer there. And they used to sell rock t-shirts. So, a few years ago, in 2000, I ordered an Oasis t-shirt. It never arrived... or, at least, I never got it. A real pity. Years passed, I start to work in Meridiana.
Last weekend we had to totally clean the place of furniture and matherial, because they are remodelling the place. That's why I am on vacation right now. Anyway, we were cleaning everything and putting everything in boxes when we got to a very old group of t-shirts that weren't being sold because they were rock ones. And between them, my Oasis t-shirt. Of course, I grabbed it and put it in my backpack. Since we were about to use the shirts to clean things and protect glasses, I didn't pay for it.
So, it took me only five years but I have my Oasis t-shirt and for free :P
I was kinda bored, so I ruined my throat doing this (I recorded it like 10 times in different styles and tones before deciding that I wasn't going to be able to get it right).
My particular vision of how metal should be:

A few weeks ago I bought an MP3 player, so now is probably a good time to send me songs in mp3, since I'm actually gonna listen to them (I usually don't listen to them when on the computer).
Also, I'm trying to get some mp3 by Kaiser Chief and Panic at the Disco (the whole albums, if possible).
PUNK WANTS MUSIC!
So, after answering several of these things, I had to create one.

Well, I had to do it. It was just a matter of time. If it wasn't me, it would have been somebody else. It was bound to happen. So, I created a Fans Club. You may want to join it, so check it.
PS: Do you remember the old, good times when I didn't make a new diary entry every day? Yes? Cool. I don't.

I'm spending a few days on my own, since my familiy is on vacation. I really should go to the supermarket, I think.
*checks the fridge*
Some lettuce, a few potatoes, coffee and some meat of the one used to make burguers. And that's all.
I'm also running low on milk.
So I should go buy things. Problem is that I don't have money :P Seemss that I'll have to use the credit card. Damn. I'll be paying my lunch in a month. By that moment, it won't be part of my organism anymore. I hate to pay for things that I'm not using.
So, I'm quoting myself because, as [ally] said, I'm a self-admiring narcist... not that there's any other kind of narcist.

Hmms no that wuold be too Tarantino-ish.

*imagines the whole secuence*
Escene 1
Outdoors, Backyard, Night
[Viking] and [ally] walk towards the parked car. It's a black car, an old model. There's a bump on the right side and the trunk is slightly open.
[Viking] - The size of the burguer isn't so important as the taste, y'know? And those burguers...
[ally] - Yes, but you end up paying more for less.
[Viking] - Ok, but the toys... they had Starsky and Hutch toys. And I mean the original show ones, not that new flick. D'you know what I mean? Starky And fucking Hutch.
Both hitmen reach the trunk at the same time.
[Viking] - You probably don't know what I'm talking about. You are too young. But back in those days, those were the cops. Now it's all about hitting the suspect and not showing that you are gay.
Viking sighs and opens the trunk.
[ally] - Well... I'm not sure about the cops back then, but I'd say that the one inside the trunk is pretty much dead.
The trunk closes with a loud thud.
Escene 2
Indoors, Street 1, Morning
A man walks slowly in the street. From a car, a big man dressed all in yellow shoots him 567 times. The man falls.
Err... is it normal for sausages to make some kind of whistling noise when you are roasting them?
In the last week I've been almost beheaded twice by doves flying low (well, low for a dove, really low for a plane and incredibly high for a dog). I've seen in "SEinfeld" that there's a pact with them, where we let them use our monuments as bathrooms and they stay out of the way of our cars. Apparently, that pact doesn't apply to my head :P Of course, they are doves. What can be expected of them?

Inventamos las heridas // We invented wounds
Para ser más importantes // To be more important
Ya pasó de moda ser feliz // It's now unfashionable to be happy

The last verse is so true. Being happy is bad. It doesn't sell, at least. Depression and perpetual sadness is a better, cooler image. Weird, uh?

It's interesting when a toad turns into a prince, but it's a lot funnier when the prince turns into a toad.
Ok, it's time for a couple excerpts from books I'm reading.
First, think think about this:
"I always thought that about that Garden of Eden story," said Ford.
"Eh?"
"Garden of Eden. Tree. Apple. That bit, remember?"
"Yes, of course I do."
"Your God person puts an apple tree in the middle of a garden and says, do what you like guys, oh, but don't eat the apple. Surprise surprise, they eat it and he leaps out from hiding behind a bush shouting 'Gotcha'. It wouldn't have made any difference if they hadn't eaten it"
"Why not?"
"Because if you are dealing with somebody who has the sort of mentality which likes leaving hats on the pavement with bricks under them you know perfectly they won't give up. They'll get you in the end".
From "The Restaurant At The End Of The Universe", by Douglas Adams
And the dangers of misspelling!
"Bad spelling can be lethal. For example, the greedy seraph of Al-Ybi was once cursed by a badly-educated deity and for some days everything he touched turned to Glod, which happened to be the name of a small dwarf from a mountain community hundreds of miles away who found himself magically dragged to the kingdom and relentlessly duplicated. Some two thousand Glods later the spell wore off. These days, the people of Al-Ybi are renowned for being unusually short and bad-tempered"
From "Witches Abroad", by Terry Pratchett
On an unrelated topic, something I ate last night didn't agree with my stomach... or maybe they agreed on having some kind of box fight :P
