Unblocked Dune Buggy Games



One thing that is testing the flexibility of the current Limitation Act / Impunity is the cowardice of the military giant involved in human rights violations. With her circle of absolute impunity and protection cracked policy, the brave young torturers and murderers of unarmed women, tremble, become shit, get hair extensions, they break their word, they escape, protest, demand-appear fuck-their rights. Not exactly what they promised when they knew all the powers protected by friends, when they said that would never be arrested alive.

This is not a mystery: We have been in the history of peoples and armies characters cruel but brave fans on behalf of their ideas have been inhumane and abhorrent acts then have charge of them, convinced of the justice its monstrosity. This is not the case of repressive military dictatorships Southern Cone. Local monsters really did not face a real war with real and dangerous evil that despite the military pride of the guerrillas, and never had doubts about the criminal nature and not necessary the horror provoked. Thus those hands were soiled the most unworthy of these armies and in exchange for this work were rewarded, usually cheaply, sometimes for barter or sale of booty. No wonder that their names are synonymous with cowardice and military personnel, remember the blond angel Astiz, surrendered to the British without firing a shot, let's central jail in the smiling torturer Gavazzo , saying that if they would find they would be armed. But you know what material is made of these people, not worth it abound.

What got me out of lethargy and warmed me in the middle of the polar cold wave is the emergence in the arena of a new champion of this herd and the tactics proposed by it. Today I was surprised to learn that half the Military Circle commissioned someone to articulate in Castilian what their atrophied neurons can not: to outline a defense to media requests for extradition from Argentina to justice some of the Uruguayan military officers. And who is responsible for this unwelcome task? Bingo; favorite intellectual divine right: Rodolfo M. Fattorusso .

What do you want to express and what tactics to prevent people Fattorusso well as "Goyo" Alvarez or "Pajarito" Silveira be extradited to the nearby shore? Well, it's simple, it is known that Argentina is a bad, bad, bad, chaired by a squint that Caligula is able to do anything to harm a proud East and now, not content with trying to put the stick in wheel to the paper mills that are going to get well, wants to take the military with the Uruguayan people are reconciled to (exact words) "lynching." To illustrate this Fattorusso speaks on the news of the Country Code 8 and limiting their verba florida only two points: that justice Argentina dependent on the executive, ie the scourge of the Uruguay Kirchner, and that this perfidious Peronist also had a particularly malignant exception to the Act specifically exclude Pardon the Uruguayans involved in operations in Argentina. And there is Christ who move to these two points that threaten the sovereignty, no sir, never mind what those men did or what they should do, talk about what is at stake is the very existence of Uruguay This noble country now embodied in gallant figure of Gavazzo Nino.

Fattorusso arguments are stubborn and have one thing in common: they both lie. One thing that almost all the world to Argentina's opposition, has recognized clearing Kirchner is his reliance on the Supreme Court direct neighbor of the submission to the presidency, one of the gifts he had given Menem and their approximation of it to the real justice. Approximation, of course, is neither complete nor perfect, but should not be put as an example of corruption in the country Eguren judge and prosecutor Moller. In the country in which the Supreme Court upheld a law unconstitutional on all four sides as the amnesty law. The other lies, more brazen still is the suggestion that Kirchner just up the pardons of the Uruguayan army and are the only ones who threw the dogs when it happened was a simple confirmation that those did not governed more Menem's pardon. The absurd inclusion of Uruguayans in the Act of Pardon for Argentines Carlos Menem issued by was the result of an ignoble trade-off with the government of Sanguinetti, in a bargaining election deserves to be remembered the most repulsive the history of international politics, and it was logical to disappear with the other barriers protection of genocide there. But this rebate Fattorusso even when Aldo Silva shyly reminds him, the important thing is what it seems it happened, not what happened and the message to be left is a single note, today Gilberto Vazquez, tomorrow Fray Bentos, after the ass of the daughters of ROU When Silva dares to say that the crimes for which Argentina is requiring justice to the Uruguayan army were crimes (the murder of Michelini and Gutiérrez Ruiz , kidnapping the granddaughter of Gelman) committed in Argentina , Fattorusso returns to the principle and adds a fraternal spirit and little sepoy is not England and his admirable justice that calls to these pro-men but justice in Argentina, the lynch organization. So, Uruguay, close ranks.

I do not really matter what anyone says Fattorusso and in some ways it is admirable to me, this man of culture to which I have heard that Jose Diaz "made the mistake of birth" has always been a sort of fascist organic has always been vocal about expressing their ideas of hatred and disgust towards everything that smacks of leftists, trade unionists, or American people, and indeed it seems almost courageous, though I was not very clear whether it is in an honorary capacity - that decides to put his eloquence in the service of the cause they believe their friends and killers. In a way, by siding publicly with people they believe almost every stinking garbage River Plate, proves to be something like the consistency but may be something else.

What interests me is to remember is where does this thinker, that legitimizes it, and remember that the torturers and public champion liar is a columnist for the objective and democratic Search, whose director recently walked about the role strutting current copy of the press in times of intolerance frontage, and Radio Sarandi the journalistic voice of the brave morning defending the security, economic freedom and the Uruguayan media. And remember, Fattorusso, which is given as an example of intellectual and learned person despite that none of the columns of light philology shows signs of having read a fucking book of literary theory in his life, was part of the think tank the great statesman Sanguinetti government-one that gives free lessons at this time-a populist who says he wrote several speeches. If you have these things clear and memory is much easier to get a map of ideological extremism in Uruguay, that dreaded thing against all this riffraff notes without ever passed in front of a mirror.

How To Wax Downstairs

pig's breath on the previous post on the blog post

(Post long, tedious, "navel-gazing" and self-referral to full: if you annoy these features do not be an idiot or masochist, stop reading now and leave me in peace eggs in the comments)
A recent
called me on msn asking "what's wrong to Fuck You Tiger has changed so much and is so serious? ." I resented the observation bother me-as usual-because he was absolutely right; Fuck You Tiger is more serious, but not only that, is longer, verbose, pompous, pedantic and heavy to defend in a medium in which mobility and agility are the best weapons. The reasons for these changes are many and include increasing and unbearable my dissent with the political party of government, my gradual disillusionment and panic to the increasingly degraded and a general culture underground personal crisis changed me quite the way you see things. But mostly the changes were related to the blog's own growth and self-awareness of being read by many people and, above all, by many people that do not share the same codes of expression. That forced me, perhaps journalistic personal strain, to further clarify, exemplify more and more preachy, making posts in objects much larger and heavier than it wanted be and what they were in the days when the blog was read by three or four characters that played taquito.

Lately I is growing a lot of skepticism about the benefits of trade possibilities that Internet provides. I believe that, dazzled by the facilities and availability that provides what we have forgotten that, like everything in the universe, has to change. And we forget that in cultural terms can be a kind of Greek gift. The web-based communication and sharing peer to peer is a cultural revolution that has little apocalyptic and integrated unanimously (with the exception of Metallica fucking millionaires, of course). The concept Blog democratization seemed absolute terms and the dream of immediacy of it. Maybe it is, but is incomplete and easily sabotage.

When they began to popularize the channels of communication via the web, I remember thinking it was an interesting way to anywhere except Uruguay. In a society of almost pathological cowardice (if eastern become " as enlightened as brave " means that there is a minimum 80% illiteracy, whether they know) and a self-repression of expression that looks like a Freudian dream, access to a means of expression from which the feasibly anonymous slander, attack, or is generally escrachar as a divine blessing, as if a pedophile being given access to surveillance cameras in a school. Any blog of some popular terms being harassed by some resentment which ultimately anonymous blogger to lose any desire to move forward with anything, or disable comments, which eliminates the feedback that makes a blog a truly groundbreaking instrument. I can say that the sweet potato is not something unique to the Uruguayan blogs, but I think the record in the same self and the tremendous levels of bad temper are a real local specialty.

The previous post was a highly sensitive matter that I thought would be safe from this sort of thing. It was not and, in any way appeared a poor fool to attack the other commenters on behalf of aestheticism that apparently did not include the spelling in their values. I left the comment , a kind of smelly fart graph can only have been written by someone very little favored in life, because it served to remember that the type of people who read are not all equal, that there are people who take all a number of difficulties to get a little dirt in any space to feel excluded. But the point is that a traitor can with a thousand brave and really a comment just detracts from what could be a place of communion about something delicate and make exactly the opposite. One comment over 70, like a leper meddle in the pool.

What I mean is that a more or less popular blog is an inappropriate means of expression of anything other than a para-journalistic guerrilla, an anonymous denunciation space or a meeting very specific tastes. He concluded that there is a suitable space to talk about serious things, much less to show any vulnerability. Not that that's the goal of FYT, but it was the writing of what I sing the eggs, without worrying about results or reactions, and propose a swap with people who really had an affinity with it, because delivery of a simple hedonistic principle to the letter and that I am is what I do not read or pay attention to what I dislike. Unless otherwise required or that thing has some power over me, that is, not for a fucking blog.

But I can not write about what I sing with ease, then it makes sense to write in a blog, and I do not care to offer a forum for someone to vent their grievances to me or that I believe. No, I'll pass. The dynamics of the blog makes some readers think that it is a kind of substitute nerd life experiences more intense. Not for me, what can we do and the temporary facilities that previously had to write and I have not, nor the desire. Blogs have a peculiar, an intermediate space between the public and personal communication, usually does not matter much to me first and I have better means in which to exercise, and for the second I have two essential things: to embrace the listener , or failing cagarlo to blows. It's that simple.

I have a couple of half-written posts to publish in the coming days, when finished. Then I think that enough is enough, already tired and I'm tired. Time to move on .

What Is Cellulitis Of The Knee

About Looking songs impossible

Come touch me here / so I know / That I'm Not There ***



Yesterday morning I called a friend to get a consulting job, he lucidly answered everything I can, hang up and go for a swim. A few minutes later the phone gets me out of the shower, is again the same friend. When I growl about what carancho wants now, he says, "Rebella was killed." ***



few days ago I went to the mini to buy something that did not need. In trying to go to the bottom I found the aisles blocked by an old woman crouched trembling that trying to see the price of something. I immediately became angry and quietly pute mentally old shit, unnecessary hindrance poor stupid me back because I do not see. Finally let me pass, I went to the bottom, grabbed the X and returned to the box only to find that the old lady was there. Again I began to wish the worst things without moving his lips, waiting for the lightning from a time, remove and finish with my unjust delay, my unjust discomfort, the old woman turned and smiling said " happens, happens ... I take a long . " I thanked him somewhat puzzled and went to the box, and he paid the old woman asked me " how's the puppy? Long time since I've seen on the balcony ... ." I realized that the old woman was a neighbor, and acting as a neighbor has to do, before someone who did not recognize and I hate noise radiated. I got red secret shame, as if I had been caught with his fly open and a swastika hanging out. Because those are things that happen when you live with your eyes closed heart, when we let him climb bugs unclean, when someone says how ugly they are when we are not careful. ***



As I walked to work today in a neighborhood missed, made new soon. While watching that rare urban geography came into my head a song by Laurie Anderson where not long ago thought. It's called 'Ramon ' and at one point says:

Some people walk on water
Some people walk on broken glass
Some just walk round and round in their dreams
Some just keep falling down.

So when you see a man who's broken
Pick him up and carry him
And when you see a woman who's broken
Put her all into your arms
Cause we don't know where we come from
We don't know what we are.

And you? You're no one
And you? You're falling
And you? You're travelling
Travelling at the speed of light.


***

De noche dos amigos en común que teníamos con Juan Pablo, dos músicos argentinos cuyas venidas a Montevideo solían ser una fiesta de varios entornos at the same time, ask me on msn unbelievers, what happened, what happened, what happened. More or less I'll tell you what I can know which is more or less what we can know about what we know nothing. But while I answer these two types of giant heart, think of laziness I do not see the last time I was in Buenos Aires, not to make a few phone calls and take a couple of trains. And while they tipean words impotent and full of pain soundproof, think how easily relegated to future encounters ghosts. In a world that when you hold your breath, it becomes huge and makes it all away, a distance of ignorance. ***



Travelling at the speed of light . "We are nothing" is a phrase often heard at wakes. I do not mind the phrases that are whispered at wakes, it is better to say something empty that try to say something that means something, because you never know what to say, because everything is wrong, everything is so wrong. But it is logical that "we are nothing" has become popular because we are nothing, and we know less. ***



The literary police look around, move the crane and fishing a sentence of Thomas Burnett Swann where not long ago thought that says that " the penalty is not a dress but nudity . " Yes, a little that.

"But the sound of the record that finally falls and makes you see the emotional landscape that dribbled an unconscious and can not be done from memory, there are dozens of spas whole people are not going to mention without feeling they put a hand on his chest, the findings of songs that will not be defended passionately in bars no longer smokes. And as I turn

language as a fag, thinking about how to get something good to not have anything, and you think in the brackets, the semi-circles and bars with which we measure the distance sensitive, the differences between friends and acquaintances, including how we should feel and how really we are, and how all these measures do not mean anything because at the end of the day we just want to talk about love with the simple language of love, the monkeys despulgándose to find excuses to rub. The plain language of touch, which reminds you that we can touch and what we feel here is what we could not feel further. ***



At night I hear a stubborn cricket near the window. You must be confused, no crickets in the Palermo area where I live and effort is rather useless. But it bothers me, on the contrary, I appreciate your stubborn vitality. I close my eyes and remember the chorus of crickets at night in Maldonado, vibrant joyfully celebrating the unique gift magnificent gift.

How To Fight A Chest Infection

XIX: Irritating

I remember the first time I heard Jesus Lizard , not the first time I heard about them (he had read a note, I think a Spin , which put them in the sky and had concluded that I was going to like it), but the first time I actually heard one of his records. Print remember: never, ever heard anything so ugly . I disliked so much that, after giving a couple of days just in case, days when the dislike what he heard did not fall, I went to return the disc to the record store of fat Henry, who had trusted me not give an opinion about something he also had a fright like hearing, but he suspected it might be good. For me it was a mess, something so horrible that actually made me remember.

This is one of the mysteries of the consumer aesthetic culture surface delayed, or generally never arrive, to understand, the so-called "frustration of the horizon of expectations" that have been identified, rightly in my view, art . The real breakdown of the parameters of enjoyment that we welcome and impressive so strong that we can not only enjoy but we reject it, but moves us. Burroughs, David Lynch , Pere Ubu , Edgar Varese , Lamborghini , Cecil Taylor, David Cronenberg , Beckett ... I have spent many times, so many that I know the feeling so i check again and again what terrified me so much before discarding it forever, which I rarely do to a stimulus so powerful. That's something not many people do, it takes time, strength and curiosity to do so. And the reward is not resolution but concern.

few months later I bought the same disc, the same copy. The album was Liar Since then one of my five favorite albums of all time and a piece of aesthetic violence to which none of the supposedly ultra-radical groups of Williamsbourg noise is even close to approaching.

Today, eleven or twelve years later, I find it a bit strange so initial revulsion at the end of the Jesus Lizard were basically a rock band, including about a band of heavy blues, but contextualizing it seems logical in that then I was hanging from bands like Sonic Youth , Pixies, Sugar , Wedding Present, Pavement or , bands that may be put in the same shelf as the Jesus Lizard, but they were fundamentally different. Bands were ultimately introspective, educated, sensitive and somewhat poppy , Jesus Lizard was a rock volcano misanthrope totally out of control in appearance but with the more disciplined method of demolition in the history of rock. The band that your girlfriends hate and your fellow musicians listen with an open mouth, trying to count the times and failing miserably.

In a recent review in Pitchfork contemporary critic of mine explained that the alternative music world has been sweetened and softened both his brother, just in his twenties now, got scared and blamed to mental music critic groups called as "evil indie," a neo-genre that exemplified in the glorious names of Big Black, Brainiac , Melvins and of course, Jesus Lizard . If indeed there is this sub-genre I have to say is probably my favorite kind of music, musically heavier than punk, more aesthetically industrial rock, more Page zeppelinianamente that Plant, technically more virtuous than proactive ... Black lights are not devoted to ugliness or pure confrontation, but the search for a new standard of beauty and energy nietzscheano more beyond good and evil, beyond duty and desire to be empathic identification.

is likely that the name of David Yow not be the first to jump to talk about poetry in rock or modern music, but his lyric-sabotaged by the singer's diction impossible, usually vocalize in spurts, a drunk grunt becomes even more incomprehensible by the technique of singing covering her mouth or covering the microphone with his hand quality may not be so obvious to a fan of Jim Morrison or Ryan Adams , nor is the kind of thing you quoted in an email designed to seduce a girl, but it is a vitality imposible e inaceptable que va a contramano de todo lo que uno pude considerar como lírico. Veamos si no a la letra de ' Lady Shoes '

There's a girl, playing her piano, there's a little girl, playing her big piano
While her mother gives her an enema, while her mother
While her mother gives her an enema, while her mother
And then the daddy comes in and jacks off on the piano, and jacks off on the piano
And jacks off on the piano, and jacks off on the piano
Meanwhile, the local maternity ward, nurse comes in with a great big sledgehammer
She kills all the little babies, destroys the monitoring system
Says she got some time to stick around
She calls the doctor, said look what I've done
She calls the doctor, said look what I've done
She calls the doctor, said look what I've done
Doctor comes in, pops a boner and jacks off in her cap
And then the motel manager comes by
And takes a little shit in his hand, and then he takes a little shit in his hand
And then he takes a little shit in his hand
And the he puts it on like lipstick, lipstick, he puts it on like lipstick, lipstick

' Lady Shoes' is the most representative song of Jesus Lizard or better. Not even the best of the album that contains it ( Goat, 1991), in which parts are much more dynamic and emphatic as 'Here Comes Dudley ' or 'Mouth Breather ', but it is still an issue shell of the mother. It is possibly the most deliberately provocative text Yow and who best exemplifies the extremity of his lyrics for those who do not know it thoroughly.

A great follower of the school of lyrical depravity may have opened Genesis P-Orridge but has roots back to antediluvian bluesman as Skip James , Yow signaled the beginning of his career to be more an admirer of Birthday Party, too ugly and lacking in glamor Gothic for the American Nick Cave but crazy enough to back performances his band Scratch Acid violence ceremonies of truly scenic and Texan enough to give your psychotic rants an authenticity that the Australian leader of the Bad Seeds could never give their raids blues. In his work on Jesus Lizard, Yow moved away each time his (outdated) influence of Cave and moved closer to the work of two of the best writers who have passed through the culture of rock: Don Van Vliet and Mark E. Smith, who added a touch of avant-garde violence pure Southern blues and much of North American uneducated dirt horrible. His lyrics are often as small vignettes abusive preacher psychotic delirium tremens dam , uncontrolled hatred that can not be sedated by liters of cheap grain alcohol, hatred which from time to time gaps strange lucidity shine upon which shines almost martial discipline of music.

Compared to the texts of their most brilliant songs like ' Gladiator', 'Fly on the wall ' or ' Glamorous', 'Lady Shoes' is simple and obvious in its intentions to grand guignol , juxtaposition of opposites, of kindness and repulsion, but its effectiveness is less clear that it is worth select before others. Everything is present in a few lines: ejections, gore, refining, family, sex, madness ... There is no justification whatsoever for this little fable psychopath, this circus of horrors hardcore fetish encompassed under the label of "lady shoes."

Maybe you can argue that their game of provocation, nurses crushing babies' skulls with a hammer was seen a bit more in 1991 when the song was released. At the end of the infamous "Slug Bait 'had been made about fifteen years ago. But there is something totally own Yow and can consider condensed ars poetic verse, which is the pride final phrase: the hotel manager lipstick on a turd. A complete set of violations to John Waters or Viennese Aktion Theatre would have been happy to get coprophagy, or shit, and leave it as a stink against the universe, Yow, who is at heart a formalist , educated and aware of the tradition that is falling apart, it gives an aesthetic orientation and as such moral guidance. That is, does not eat the turd, uses it as lipstick. And in this small abject aesthetic originality is where you see the hand of a special talent of the mechanical eye that sees the beauty in everything, in the deepest revulsion and at midnight on madness. It is no coincidence that the song ends with this verse, that is what is in some ways Jesus Lizard: an intention to trim made with the most infamous of materials from waste. No, David Yow was not your poster-boy gothic, your Lord Byron junkie romantic sacrifice in public, you pretentious asshole who recites analogies between your, or your, anemia and skin mole. David Yow was and is an artist of the twentieth century. An artist Texan, the Lone Star state. The star will black hole. Today
