Movies to idle Afternoons
July 2, 2008 – 11:29 am
There are times when recurrent subjects (in this case passion, love, despair, loss, compulsion, etc) seem to pop up in front of our eyes even when we believe to have buried them deep in the back of our minds. This happened recently when I picked two titles at random to watch. It was a good [...]
Out in the Web
June 27, 2008 – 3:21 am
Not all bloggers have the time and the patience to dig the web looking for interesting blogs to read. To individuals like me writing can be a pretty lonely activity – even though I am aware some good souls stop by from time to time to read my blabbing. However, it is a fact that [...]

System Update
February 13, 2008 – 11:58 pm
Yesterday I received a phone call from a friend asking for some help with some technical issues concerning his computer.
He is the owner of a T60 Lenovo (former IBM) laptop and he had found some awkward behavior concerning the use of the “Presentation Director” tool from Lenovo. The whole thing started on Monday when he [...]
Short Thoughts on Communication and Language
February 8, 2008 – 10:22 am
Living abroad can be an exciting experience. Learning about new cultures and embracing a diverse and broad cultural universe can help one ponder about its own stance on the world. Together with it, learning a new language is also a rewarding experience. However, from my own understanding as an “expatriate” living in Japan for almost [...]
