Depression, despair...ah my old friends, welcome... I too always heard rumours about Slavs (esp the Russians) being predisposed to melancholia. Bruna I was thinking about your post/question last night, and remembered growing up in a very isolated Slavic family in a very non-Slavic country. I remembe...

I really like Bjork lyrics and songs (like you Sandra?). I don't find LCs songs sad, even when they are about sadness, I find them articulate and evocative, and sometimes a salve for brokenness. When I was younger (so much younger than today) I used to love The Cure, but I almost never listen to the...

So many good points! Yeah Paula, whatever happened to Nana?? As for listening to the singing, it's best done with a group (analogy: drinking alone). I must admit to feeling something like pain and embarrassment during some acts. Linda, Eurovision leaves Idol for dead! Although, I did hear that Terry...

I love the Eurovision contest
I think You guys must have voted for Greece - the theme of their song was "Secret Passion". Every year we have a party - it is a scream, and not to be taken very seriously at all. And why was everyone doing the drum routine. We were almost hysterical with laughter many times. I thought tha...

IF you want to eat the kind of food where nothing screams (apart from the consumer) just go to the supermarket and pick up a nice packet of food colourings, additives, flavours and a million other synthetic items which are supposed to be edible. It's a nice thought to be able to live on air only, an...

didier, I wrote and edited this post so many times, but in the end I just can't respond to yours. This will have to do... This world is not made up of closed-bordered islands, it is made up of human beings who live where they do mostly by sheer fluke of when and where they were born. They survive, t...

I've never really understood meat substitutes. I once went out with friends, and next door to our restaurant was a Vegetarian Meat restuarant. You can get fake meat that looks like real animal. Why?? If you don't want to eat meat, why would you want the 'replacement' to look like it. I have heard of...
