My Christmas Story

I went to the beach for a few days with some friends and we were returning to spend the hollidays with our family. Yesterday at 2 pm, we run out of gas in the middle of nowhere, we were 50 KM away from the gas station. We felt really lucky when the motorcicle that was right behind us pulled over and offer to take one of us to buy gas in the next gas station. He had only one helmet and he gave it to my friend. He left all his bags with us to leave room for my friend and when they were ready they left. We waited for them like an hour, and it was really really hot out there, about 36 ºC.
When they came back with the gas, he drank a couple of mates with us and we all talked for a bit. He told us he was a baker. After a little while he said he had to leave. He took his bags and placed them in the back of the motorcycle. He came back to the care with a package for us: it was a traditional Pannetone. I think that we were all trying to hold our tears, this guys was not only helping us but giving us a christmas gift. We couldn´t express him how grateful we were. Of course he refused to take money for the gas he spent (but I sneaked some cash in his bag anyway).
His name was Hector. We love you Hector!
Merry Christmas to all of you

Festival Buen Día

Hi there. I don feel like writing, so I just want to let you know about Buen Día festival:

http://www.festivalbuendia.net/

It's tomorrow (saturday 20th) so cancell your lame plans and just go there.

V Contemporary Dance Festival

You are sick of tango, I know, and I totally understand you. Who isn´t? Last weekend you went to the Chess and Tango show so this weekend you want to do something different, exciting, new, fresh. So here is what you are doing: You are going to watch a contemporary dance perfomance. How does that sound? Boring? I know, it can be boring, pretencious and/or stupid, but it´s for free.
If you are a straight guy looking for cute girls, I promise that you´ll find plenty of attractive dancers among the audience. And since you´ll be THE cool foreigner who enjoys modern dance blah blah, you know, you´ll probably get lucky.
If you are a gay guy trying to hook up, don´t miss this great opportunity, this is gay paradise. Don´t let the queens intimidate you. Underneath every gay dancer there is a fragile human being with an extreme lack of self steem (well this rule aplies to every dancer, not only the gay ones)
If you are a young girl trying to hook up, forget it. Don´t go unless you enjoy modern dance for real. Or you are too cheap to buy tickets for a nice Tango show.



I recommend this one, I promise it´s not boring: Patiecito, Patiecito
TEATRO SARMIENTOAv. Sarmiento 2715 (Plaza Italia) Sunday 7 at 8PM

Breast Cancer Is Sexy!!! (in BA at least)

The image you see above this lines could be the cover of a porn (or soft porn) movie called something like "Boobs galore" "Boobs part 9" or "Boobylicious". But it´s not. It´s the ad for a breast cancer awareness campaign. Sexy, uh?

In case you don´t know, boobs, buts, and "lesbians" images are used in any kind of advertisment campaing, from cars to aspirins, from lengerie to Breast cancer! Almost every magazine has at least one of these images in their cover. Aparently this is the only way to make porteños buy a magazine.

We live in a city covered in naked female images, I think that in a few years, guys from BA will beg you : "Put on your clothes, it´s soooo sexy". I recently read the results of a survey and they said that being exposed to sexy images all the time turns off 58% of the male population...

Anyway, that breast cancer ad makes me sick. Please, if you see one; vandalize it.

Thank you
