Happy 2009? Lets Hope So

Well I have to start with apologies for those of you who kept on checking the blog year round to find the same old stuff. I gave in to laziness (which shouldn't come to a surprise to many of you) and school and work allowed little time to write long pieces. I didn't even manage to write two words about the Minitek festival, but my friend Helene Sandi managed to say everything I wanted (not without controversy from her detractors). Well 2009 didn't started well with the courtesy of the Israeli Self Defense Forces (How cute) fireworks. You can always count on Israel to bring us two steps closer to Armageddon. And lets not forget the "brave" and "caring" heroes of Hamas that have done nothing to prevent the slaughter and will be the victors at the expense of the civilian population. Well, here in America things are different. We are moving to an age of change... four years too late. It will be like trying to fix the Titanic with Play-doh. Let's not forget the collapse of the credit system. That should make for a very interesting year. Start collecting food, ammo, a Rosseta Stone guide to Mandarin, and enjoy western civilization while it lasts. On my neck of the woods, more like my neck of the jungle, my peep's had their up and downs. Our tiny cold war between all mighty Alvaro Uribe and the pseudo-socialist Chavez & Correa LLC brought us closer to war, victory to Uribe, false combat results defeat for Uribe, free hostages victory, the natives march defeat, and so on all year round. On the more hedonistic and decadent part 2009 has potential with Minitek II (we hope), Detroit, Mutek... well lets see how far we go.
