From point A to B

Bored out of my skull I started browsing around wikipedia...

• An alcoholic beverage is a drink containing ethanol.
• Ethanol is a drug, and depressant.
• Alcoholic beverages are clasified as: Fermented beverages and Distilled beverages.
• Whisky is a distilled beverage.
• The irish spell whisky as whiskey, no one knows why, they just do.
• Baileys is an Irish -whiskey and cream- based liqueur
• Some people drink theyre coffee with Baileys.
• The word coffee comes from the name of the city of Cofa in Ethiopia.
• A counter clerk in a coffeehouse has come to be known in English as a barista, from the Italian word for bartender.
• Many coffee houses in the Muslim world, offer shisha, powdered tobacco smoked through a hookah.
• The Caterpillar in Alice in Wonderland used a hookah.
• Lewis Carroll was the author of Alice in Wonderland and he was a mathematician.

from alcohol to math... from a to b... wikipedia is an option when you are completely bored and want to learn something new ;)

evidencia de mi voto... (como batalle para tomar esa foto y aun asi sale borrosa...)

Public Service Announcement

Como todo mundo sabemos... el domingo son las elecciones (casi ni nos bonbardean con ello)...

Aclaro que no hare campaña a algun candidato (aunque yo ya tengo bien definido por quien votare)...

Este mensaje es para que se animen a votar (los que aun andan indecisos)... se que estas elecciones se ha dado la famosa guerra sucia... que realmente no ha ayudado a nadie... al contrario... solo ha generado apatia y manipulacion...

Solo recuerden que las elecciones van mas alla del Marketing y que esto decidira el rumbo que tendremos los proximos 6 años... asi que seleccionen quien consideren su mejor opcion...

Wizard's Top 100 Paperback: Round 2

Creen que se me habia olvidado? pues no... se que ando depre... y esto es una buena manera de distraerme...
recuerden que si el titulo del comic tiene '*' significa que en el link a amazon podran ver parte del comic...


96. The Complete Concrete* by Paul Chadwick

No lo he leido... wikipedia nos da una idea de que trata: The eponymous central character is a normal man whose brain was transplanted into a large, stone body by aliens, and who lives an extraordinary life on Earth following his escape...

Al parecer este comic ha sido muy aclamado... y ha ganado varios premios incluyendo los afamados Eisner Awards (dato curioso... estos premios se dan en el Comic-Con International... asi que si les interesa un poco mas... aqui estan los nomiados de este año)



95. X-Men: From The Ashes by Chris Claremont

Lamento informar que este tampoco lo he leido... peeeeero... Amazon nos cuenta que: A grieving Scott Summers lost his true love Jean Grey, when she killed herself to save the world from the overpowering Phoenix. Now he's met Madeline Pryor, who has an uncanny likeness to his former love...very uncanny!
Meanwhile, Wolverine prepares for his marriage to the Japanese beauty, Mariko; Storm gets a new look and becomes the leader of a unlikely group of mutants; Kitty starts exploring her love for Peter/Colossus; and an enemy seeks help from the X-Men.
Dato curioso... Chris Claremont participo en la creacion de los siguientes personajes: Rogue, Psylocke, Shadowcat, Phoenix, Sabretooth, Mystique, Emma Frost, Jubilee, Rachel Summers, Mister Sinister y Gambit


94. Batman: Haunted Knight by Jeph Loeb

jeje no lo he leido... y amazon (como siempre) nos ilustra: a collection of three Halloween stories involving Batman. In Fears, the Scarecrow returns to Gotham City, and he's turning the lights out for one scary Halloween. In Madness, that arch-villain the Mad Hatter is stealing children, and when he grabs Commissioner Gordon's daughter, it becomes personal. The final story is Ghosts, in which Bruce Wayne is visited by the ghost of his father, who warns him that three spirits will visit him for his own reformation; it's a Halloween version of the Christmas Carol, and Bruce hates seeing someone use his father's image - somebody needs to be taught a lesson, but who?


93. The Adventures of Tony Millionaire's Sock Monkey* by Tony Millionaire

Creo que ya no les sorprende saber que tampoco lo haya leido... asi que vayamonos por lo que dice Amazon: A mischievous sock monkey named Uncle Gabby and his bumbling pal Drinky Crow are the heroes of this funny, unsettling, and oddly endearing collection. Follow Uncle Gabby and Drinky Crow as they try to find a home for a shrunken head, play matchmakers between the bat in the doll's house and the mouse in the basement, hunt salamanders, and try to get to heaven. Delights! Happy endings and random destruction are guaranteed!


Ok... suficiente por hoy... ya me enfade de estarme peleando con el editor de Blogger... soy yo o anda falseando?

stay busy...
try not to think about it...
breathe...
there is nothing left to do...
its gone...
move on...

Sandman

Consegui los comics de The Sandman... comparto un fragmento:

I have always been solitary,
but here on the nightward shores of dream,
loneliness washes over me in waves,
lapping and pulling at my spirit...

Sandman # 004 - Preludes and Nocturnes # 3 - A Hope in Hell

Sometimes I feel like Ive seen such a place...



Se rumora que Robert Smith fue la inspiracion para el personaje de Dream... me agrada la idea...

Another day goes by

my head is a war zone...
and you are part of it...
yet you dont notice...
you dont even suspect it...
you ask...
i fake my smile...

another day goes by...

sitting in my car...

watching the lightning storm...

the sky glowing violently...

too many thoughts...

too many feelings...

its overwhelming...

and yet another day goes by...

Smile though your heart is aching
Smile, even though it's breaking
Smile by Judy Garland

tears and rain...

going around town... the sky cried along with my heart... screamed with it as well...

I love it when it rains... I just wish it wasnt like this...

Don't tell me I haven't been good to you
Don't tell me I have never been there for you
Don't tell me why
Nothing is good enough

(Good Enough by Sarah McLachlan)

disculpen si estos post se estan volviendo muy personales... pero es lo que siento...

I'm dying again...

Ahora desperte deseando que ayer fuera un sueño... no... mas bien una pesadilla... pero... por mas que quiero no deja de ser realidad... las imagenes se repiten... una y otra vez desgarrando... hiriendo...

Desperte con Going Under de Evanescence en mi cabeza... y tan quemada que esta la cancion... aun asi... ahi sigue... una y otra vez... dont want you hand this time ill save myself... maybe ill wake up for once...

Solo me queda alejarme... im going under... drowning you...

Cuan bajo cai...

I won't be broken again...

I've got to breathe I can't keep going under...

XXXIV Friends and Lamps

Wizard's Top 100 Paperback: Round 1

Ok... llevo dias con esta idea en la cabeza... asi que ahi va....

Wizard es una de las revistas de comics que leia durante la prepa (mi primo tenia suscripcion y le secuestraba ejemplares *jeje* thanks Heky!!)... y recuerdo que hablaban de los mejores 100 comics (paperback)... se que cada cierto tiempo liberan una lista nueva... asi que me puse a buscar en internet alguna de las listas y afortunadamente di con una de las tantas versiones (no se cual version sea)... la dinamica sera que dia con dia pondre la cantidad de comics que alcance... tratare de comentar de ellos si los he leido... agregare una breve descripcion de la trama del comic... y linkeare en el nombre a su respectiva pagina de venta en amazon (si el nombre del comic tiene un '*' al final significa que amazon te muestra parte del comic)...

sin mas que decir... que comience la cuenta regresiva!



100. Batman: Faces by Matt Wagner

(no lo he leido... y comenzamos maaaaal!... pero la pagina de DC nos dice: When District Attorney Harvey Dent's face was forever deformed by a vial of acid, his mind was also fractured and the maniacal Two-Face was born. In BATMAN: FACES, the demented schizophrenic, enraged by his own isolation and alienation, attempts to create a country of deformed men. Taking over a small Caribbean island and forcing plastic surgeons to perform unholy operations, Two-Face begins to create an army in his own image. But when a simple blackmail investigation leads Batman to discover his former ally's mad scheme, Two-Face's pursuit of power is quickly ended)




99. The Red Star Collected Edition* by Christian Gossett

(supe de este comic por Beto... despues mi hermano adquirio una copia... la historia es un poco compleja y por ahorita sigue inconclusa... visualmente es genial... trabajan mucho la mezcla de imagenes computarizadas con sketches a mano (o por lo menos asi lo tengo entendido...) no es uno de mis favoritos... pero es recomendable... amazon nos dice: Set in the latter days of the imaginary U.R.R.S. (United Republics of the Red Star), this critically acclaimed story follows the heroes of the Red Star as they discover their country's true intentions in a war against a smaller neighbor state; a revelation that leads the soldiers on a quest to liberate their nation from its dark legacy of oppression)




98. Batman & Dracula: Red Rain by Doug Moench

(no lo he leido... jeje... pero amazon nos dice: "Batman and the world's most famous vampire--seems like a perfect combination. Except for the fact that Dracula wants to turn Gotham City into his personal kingdom of the undead. Batman is left with no choice but to side with a renegade band of vampires and face Dracula face to face. Kelley Jones brings his creepy, exaggerated Wrightsonesque artwork to this clever story ")






97. Spider-Man Vs. Venom by David Michelinie

(no lo he leido y no localice un review de este comic en especifico... pero encontre varios datos curiosos... David Michelinie creo a Venom... y tambien ha sido la persona (despues de Stan Lee *el creador de Spiderman y muchos otros superheroes*) que ha hecho mas comics consecutivos de The Amazing Spiderman)






MINI PARENTESIS/ DATO CURIOSO: Si has visto Spiderman, Hulk, cualquiera de las de X-Men,
Daredevil, etc... has visto a Stan Lee... en todas las peliculas aparece en algun momento como extra... por ejemplo en X-Men 3 sale regando su jardin (si no mal recuerdo) cuando Xavier y Magneto van a buscar a Jean cuando era niña... en Hulk... Stan Lee aparece junto con Lou Ferrigno (que era Hulk en la serie de television) saliendo del laboratorio en una de las primeras escenas de la pelicula... ;)

gah... ya son las 12:55 y me tengo que levantar temprano... bueno... luego le sigo!... espero que disfruten lo que llevo y poder avanzar mas en el proximo round... enjoy!!
