Finally, this blog have reach 50 posts. This is a remarkable and noteworthy moment for this blog. A milestone of how far this blog went since it was first started. (The date of origin or why it is created is unknown, even to the author. You can say that it is "part of history".) The only information which can rival this good news is probably concrete proof that Hilter have only one ball. And his first question was, "Doctor, will I be able to have children?" Quite interesting that some rumors from WWII finally have some evidence. A half a century+++ question solved.( Hey it's the no. 50 again!) Speaking about WWII, my holiday have been full of booms and bangs in France. Parachuting down with AA guns shooting at you is no joke, you really wish you brought your passport to show that you're not an illegal immigrant. Even if your Sergeant Matt Baker, you still need some half witted squad members to follow you on the hard task to Berlin. Brothers in arms is really no Call of Duty. Aiming at a Nazi five metres away is like swimming in a pool with no water. That's the most irritating part of the game. Games aside, I have been following the television more closely, which I need to in order to survive in the world.(Tell you the story later.) And my intuitive reaction was to watch the History channel. Contrary to the name, most of the programmes actually have numerous elements which are linked to the future. One part of a show about Paint was how microchips can be added to them in the future and when painted on walls and bridges, can help scientist to monitor the wind strength and others of that particular area for the long term. Not bad, even history have a few surprises that you wasn't aware of. So going on the story of December, which maybe can cheer you up and build the mood towards Christmas and forget about the lousy economy or pirates back with a vengeance.
To the story, I was with my CCA friend in school. (Rule no. 1 of the holidays: Don't use the word "school".) And we're discussing about random things and she exclaimed that she can't wait to go home and watch her TV programmes. Then it came to me that for a few weeks (in mid November), I couldn't find the national kids channel on my TV. It was once a shared channel with kids programmes in the morning and Indian channel in the night. So I was quite shocked that the Indian channel dominated the whole schedule of the channel. The first time I saw this new trend, I took it as maybe a special day for the Indian community and completely ignored it. After observing the same thing for about two weeks, I began to sense suspicious and in a way fear. I hate cartoons by the way, never watched the kids channel since..( I am at a lost of History terms to use. My history sucks.) Anyway, the reason I was fearful was that despite rapid falling birth rates in my country, there is no need to neglect kids of their favourite channel. They need time to relax, not just study to get a perfect score for their secondary schools.( Rule no.2 of the holidays: Don't do it again!) So she was so super shocked that I was oblivious to the new kids channel created. And she can't stop teasing me about that. It was a big ridicule in her preception to neglect such changes in TV. To me however, the TV is just well, a radio with moving pictures. So let the schandenfreude begin. Ok, but I have always value the radio highly, especially with BBC Friday night comedy and other podcasts, it have really taken a lot of appeal away from the TV.
So here's the final part. Posing an important question, " What do you do to preserve your country's history, heritage and architecture?" Well, the answer is to install a minister with no links to history, heritage whatsoever. In Italy, the new guy in charge of museums and archaeological sites will be the boss of Macdonalds. I guess you have to win the World Cup before to understand why. But the Gman said," The right man in the wrong place makes all the difference in the world."
So enjoy your holidays mates and for theCrew, I'm looking forward to the year end events.
