My friend calls me fish

Why my friend Cherry said this?

我是一隻魚
喜歡游來游去
下個月我要游去馬來西亞
去當沙嗲魚.


She is so naughty, she's always teasing me. But I like it :)

November is here!

Wow... Time passes so fast this year. It's november already. Outside it's really getting colder. We had some nice sunny days in october. Sometimes I woke up and my eyes were so hurt by the strong sunlight. I even wore sunglasses at home. The cats are eating more and more, they want to stay inside to be kept in a warm and cosy place. This especially applies to Milan. He's limping on 1 leg. Krempača and Miša Piša are just going in and out, they're still active. We even had Gačnik yesterday coming down the hill, visiting 'his' original family. It's now 8 months since he left our house and moved to some other place. But lately he comes back a lot. But just for few hours.
Well, my mood is somewhat similar to the behavior of the cats. Sometimes I feel tired, so I'm resting like Milan. Then again, I feel like wanna be active, so I hop around like Miša Piša. And eventually I'm like Gačnik, moving out, leaving for a while and I guess there will be a time when I will be going back to my house and this special place I live in. But it's time to discover the world, once again. I want to face new challenges, accept the changes and hopefully learn a lot on my path of personal evolution. Striving for a better self and for a more peacefull existence. I look forward to november, I will report on the changes that will occur soon.

I still can't be sure that Obama will win

I am not sure what to think lately... The McCain pack is trying it's hardest to label Obama with all kind of nonsense. Republican smear tactics as usual. It seems that the American people are strongly leaning towards Obama. On the other hand, I saw on TV a guy said he knows many people have lied to the pollsters. And he was expecting a big surprise. We're talking about the Bradley effect. I can say it loud and clear now: If Obama is not elected, it's because of racism! It's no other possible reason to lose at this time. You have the economy crushed, you have a dumb Sarah Palin and an old confused John McCain, virtually with same policies as Bush. So, what can make Obama lose? Racism. Simple as that. This would be devastating for America and it's standing in the world. People are not enthusiastic about McCain, to say the least. And Sarah Palin terrifies the world. Please, Americans, elect a smart president! After you saw what a dumb one can do to the USA and the rest of the world. Please! I beg you all! Go and vote, don't be lazy on tuesday! This is my small contribution to this process. I just hope I'm proven wrong and Obama wins! Hope is the only thing we can have now. Hope.

Who will be the next president of USA?

Soon we will know...

McCain is desperate and ugly!

The US presidential campaigns go toward it's end, yet McCain's new tactics are some sleazy personal attacks on Barack Obama. He was able to rally some angry mobs that are predominately racist and dumb (You can only see rural or small town white people, check this blogger from Ohio). When Obama had 250.000 people gather in Berlin, was as if America is reborn as the leader of the free world, allowing a person regardless of his race or background, to reach the highest office, with his intellect and great judgement. We were all drunk here in Europe. What we didn't see was small town Americans like in Ohio. People who call senator Obama terrorist, scumbag and other nasty things. It just made me sad. I really really hope that this kind of Americans are dying out. I hope it is a minority. Yet, I remain pessimistic. Barack is black and many people just can't vote for him. Which is extremely ignorant and dumb, but America is a divided country. Now we will see how many of these white Americans will be voting for McCain. We shall see.
And since Palin and McCain began these personal attacks, many rightwing blogs or online news jump on this train and stress how important it was with whom Barack was hanging out. I found a very good comment on that and I like to share it here.

What if things were switched around?.....think about it. Would the country's collective point of view be different? Ponder the following:

Obama/Biden vs. McCain/Palin

2) What if the Obamas had paraded five children across the
stage, including a five month old infant and an unwed,
pregnant teenage daughter?

3) What if John McCain was a former president of the
Harvard Law Review and Barack Obama finished fifth from
the bottom of his graduating class?

4) What if McCain had only married once, and Obama was
a divorcee?

5) What if Obama was the candidate who left his first wife
after a severe disfiguring car accident?

6) What if Obama had met his second wife in a bar and had
a long affair while he was still married?

7) What if Michelle Obama was the wife who not only became
addicted to painkillers but also acquired them illegally
through her charitable organization?

8) What if Cindy McCain had graduated from Princeton
and Harvard Law School?

9) What if Michelle Obama's family had made their money
from beer distribution?

10) What if Obama had been a member of the Keating Five?

11) What if McCain was a charismatic, eloquent speaker?

12) What if Obama couldn't read from a teleprompter?

13) What if Obama was the one who had military experience
that included discipline problems and a record of crashing
seven planes?

14) What if Obama was the one who was known to display
publicly, on many occasions, a serious anger management
problem?

15) What if the Obamas had adopted a white child?

You could easily add to this list. If these questions reflected reality, do you really believe the election numbers would be as they are? To not vote Obama because he's "too liberal" and his policies don't reflect your positions are fine. But if you're voting on someone's character, biography, and who you believe they essentially are, then what does this mean? This is what racism does. It covers up, rationalizes and minimizes positive qualities in one candidate and emphasizes negative qualities in another when there is a color difference.

Sad but true: McCalin will probably win.

After being energized by US politics this year, I'm very disappointed now. Barack and Hillary had a tough fight in the primaries. Now we know: It did not help the Democrats. It did not help Barack. It helped the Republicans. Barack was the star of this whole year's politics, the front runner, while McCain would be somewhere in the back, usually very unlikely a target for real scrutiny. He knows how to use his age and history in his advance, playing the POW card, which looks good in the eyes of Americans. Especially if you compare a young intelligent black person to an old grey (sometimes forgetful and grumpy) old white man. The stress is on white. Race matters in America.
But it's a real mystery for me that Americans prefer to elect a dumb leader. Why would they think Barack is an elitist? Just because he is intelligent? I guess half of the Americans can't understand what he's saying. You can't give the Americans complex answers, keep it simple like drill drill drill. It's pathetic! After McCain spread all these cheap lies about Barack, he hired a joke for his VP! Sarah Palin, an unknown governer from Alaska, who's a phoney religious extremist with no experience and no solutions, spreading even more lies per second than McCain. America will definitely change! If they elect McCain/Palin, I think everybody will pray for the safety of John McCain. If something happens to him, USA will have a dumber president than George Bush. Can you believe it? She has no clue about economy and foreign policy, no wonder she wouldn't give any interviews! She's afraid of being exposed as a bimbo she is. It's such a bullshit! I mean the american politics. How can people fall for this kind of gimmicks? I just hope something will shift in these 2 months in people's heads. Please, America. For once elect an intelligent president. Look beyond the skin color and age. Please!
But realistically speaking, it'll be very hard for Barack. I almost don't believe in his victory anymore. It's depressing... America, don't ever push up a man so high and then drop him down on the floor. I thought America was different... Now I seem to have lost the faith in America. I watched the Democratic convention and I got all excited, but then I saw the next week the Republicans smeared, lied and mocked the Democrats. And... it worked. I don't know what it is that people believe McCain is an agent of change now... He keeps stealing Baracks ideas and at the same time leaning into the far right. It works. Cuz he will sell his soul to the devil just to get elected. Whatever! Let him bring America and the whole world in danger just to get elected. I think the American Empire must lose it's power, it's grown too big and too influential on the whole world. An American election is like a world election. Just that only some 100 million people decide about the rest of us. And imagining a bimbo as the strongest person in this world it's beyond my wildest fears. I'm just speechless when I see all these things developing right before my eyes. And we thought Bush was bad. Duh....

Republicans smear smear smear!

Republicans have only one policy: SMEAR SMEAR SMEAR! That's how they wanna overtake Obama. Make the American people afraid of him. They can do whatever they want! Start wars, ruin the economy, create a greater division between rich and poor, oppose the right for free health care, give tax breaks for the rich and wealthy, go hand in hand with multinationals - they can do whatever they want! As long as there's a 'stupid white man' elected president, Americans will tolerate all this s**t! So my proposal is: Dissolve the Democratic party and let's have one-party-rule. What kind of democracy is America? On the federal level - none! At least some american states take the democracy seriously. But then again. One-party-rule like China and two-party-rule like USA - what is the difference?
This year, I had hope with Obama... Now I'm just hopeless. McDumb is slowly overtaking him in the polls, Republicans keep smearing. And to have a black man win the elections, he would need at least 30 points lead in the polls. A dead heat in the polls is like 20 points lead for McCain. Many whites will say to the pollsters that they will vote for Obama, but at election day, they will vote for McSame and then the pundits will say: Well, he didn't convince the white working class, he didn't give specific solutions, they didn't know him! WTF????? I'm from Slovenia, I got to know him last year, I pay attention to his road to nomination - I know him! You have internet, media (also unbiased) and he gave answers to all the problems Americans are facing. You have his website, Wikipedia, thousands of blogs - how can you not know what he stands for? i'm really starting to believe, what Bill Maher said: 'Americans are too dumb to be governed.' Meanwhile the Republicans smear smear and smear. It's pathetic!
