huston we have a problem.
trebuie sa schimb titlul la blog. (am fost anuntat atat in scris cat si oral ca ...cehia is over-rated and done)
ma gandesc ca "hai sa dam culoare la cacat" suna destul de ok (mai ales acum cu integrarea .. pune niste stelutze in jurul lui, aproape ca suna a "ce cacaturi ai in cap, visatorule (am pus cuvantul visatorule doar pentru a sublinia faza cu stelutzele)".
astept si alte propuneri pe email. (no text)
faza geniala cu (no text) a fost ca in timpul unui proiect un manager tot intreba cum merge treaba (trimitzand 4 mailuri pe ora)
si trimite managerul un mail mai multor persoane in care scrie: .. give me a status (no text)
persoana cu care lucram la proiect era la fel de noua ca si mine asa ca dupa ce citeste mailul vrea o a doua parere asa ca ma cheama si imi zice "ce puii mei vrea asta cu no text?" asa ca am decis sa raspundem cu "ok". puteam sa spunem si "is ok" dar imi era frica ca o sa raspunda "sirma".

Hm, hmmm ...
La Stere-n crasma-n cartier,
Cu curve, suti si mici cu beri
Mirosul acru de pisat
Din drum te ia, la Stere...
Da, da, ie, ie, ie,
E minunat ce vad la Stere,
Da, da, ie, ie, ie,
E minunat la Stere,
Da, da, ie, ie, ie,
E minunat ce vad la Stere,
Da, da, ie, ie, ie,
E minunat la Stere.
E fumul proaspat, vechi, oricum
Prea mare importanta n-are
La Stere este vadul bun
Si spala buzunare...
Da, da, ie, ie, ie,
E minunat ce vad la Stere,
Da, da, ie, ie, ie,
E minunat la Stere,
Da, da, ie, ie, ie,
E minunat ce vad la Stere,
Da, da, ie, ie, ie,
E minunat la Stere.
Invarte Stere banul tot anul
Desi n-a facut decat patru clase
Relatii ca el n-are nimeni atat decat
Poate Titi Manase...
Veri buni de sange, acelasi RH,
De ce sa n-o spun, familia-i mare,
Bogati, ei prospera si-ntregul oras
De ei va fi pus pe picioare...
Da, da, ie, ie, ie,
E minunat ce vad la Stere,
Da, da, ie, ie, ie,
E minunat la Stere,
Da, da, ie, ie, ie,
E minunat ce vad la Stere,
Da, da, ie, ie, ie,
E minunat la Stere.
Ha, ha, e minunat,
E minunat ce se-ntampla la Stere,
Ha, ha, e minunat,
Si viata toata-i placere.
Ha, ha, e minunat,
E minunat ce se-ntampla la Stere,
Ha, ha, e minunat,
E minunat la Stere.
Hm, hmmmm ...
La Stere mai vin si oameni cititi
Sorbindu-si lichidul si ei pun problema:
"De unde, bai nene, atata banet?"
Si asa apare "Dilema"...
Da, da, ie, ie, ie,
E minunat ce vad la Stere,
Da, da, ie, ie, ie,
E minunat la Stere,
Da, da, ie, ie, ie,
E minunat ce vad la Stere,
Da, da, ie, ie, ie,
E minunat la Stere.
Copiii - mai practic - privesc peste gard
Cum parintii lor vajnic pe gat toarna bere
De ce sa se duca la scoala atat
Cand uite ce bine de Stere...
Da, da, ie, ie, ie,
E minunat ce vad la Stere,
Da, da, ie, ie, ie,
E minunat la Stere,

Ha, ha, e minunat,
E minunat la Stere.
INT. MANHATTAN APARTMENT - DAY
The GROUP sit in a circle, listen as a BUSINESSMAN, near tears, gives his testimony.
BUSINESSMAN
...I mean you'd think with two mortgages out, repo guys staking out my car, my job on the line and my wife threatening to leave, you'd think I'd have the goddamn brains to stop, instead of staying in the chase, doubling down, which of course is what I did... I know I'm sick because I keep thinking if I just pulled that game out then I got a lock on the parlay and I'm flush going into Monday night and--
(breaking down, unable to continue)
MEMBER #1
... It's a disease, Leon.
MEMBER #2
Admitting you have a problem is the first step.
BUSINESSMAN/LEON
Then I guess I'm doing pretty good because I got one big fucking problem.
Someone claps. Everyone joins in. LEON smiles. Warm beat.
WALTER suddenly stands. BRANDON watches, concerned.
WALTER
My name's Walter. I'm new to the group.
(various "hellos")
Hi. I've been going to meetings like this for 18 years. Once a week, every Friday night, for 18 years. This, my friends, is my 936th consecutive meeting.
(enthusiastic applause)
Thank you. Thanks. And my hand to God, I haven't been to a track, casino or bet a game that whole time. Not a cent.
(murmurs of approval)
I've listened to thousands of sob stories by people like Leon here, and I gotta say, Leon -- if I learned one thing it's that gambling is not your problem.
LEON
It's not?
WALTER
Not even close. You're a lemon. Like a bad car, there's something inherently defective in you. And you. And me! All of us here -- we're lemons! Big, juicy, acidic, ice-tea flavoring lemons!
We look like everyone else but we're defective because when most people make a bet they want to win, while we, the degenerate gamblers of the world, we're subconsciously playing to lose.
All humans like going to the edge of the abyss, but what makes us different is we go all the way and hurl ourselves off into the void! And we like doing it so much we do it time after time after time! Me? I always felt most alive when they were raking away the chips, and every one here knows what I'm talking about.
People like us, even when we win, it's just a matter of time before we give it all back. But when we lose, and I mean the kind of loss that makes your asshole pucker to the size of a decimal point, there's a moment when you're standing there and you've just recreated the worst possible nightmare this side of malignant cancer for the 20th goddamn time and you suddenly realize -- hey, I'm still here, I'm still breathing, I'm still alive! In order to really live you have to be aware of your own mortality -- and a losing bet of a certain size is one of the best ways
WALTER CON'D
I know of getting that feeling. When you win, you defy death, but when you lose, you survive it, and that's remarkable!
Us lemons, we fuck shit up on purpose! We need to constantly remind ourselves that we're alive! Gambling's not the problem, Leon, your fucked up need to feel something, to convince yourself you exist, to test what's really real, that's the problem!
Vecina mea este tamplar (Jeni, oh, Jeni...)
Asta-i un lucru foarte rar (si Jeni e tare...)
Chiar astazi si-a pierdut ceva (Jeni, oh, Jeni...)
Vecina mea ciocanul vrea. (Vecina mea ciocanul vrea!)
Vecinul meu, tamplar si el (Titi, nea Titi...)
Mai are doar un ciocanel (si Jeni e tare...)
Prea multe cuie a batut (Titi, nea Titi...)
Si-acuma coada i s-a rupt. (Si-acuma coada i s-a rupt!)
Vecinii toti din bloc se-agita -
E zarva mare
Caci Jeni e nefericita -
Jeni vecina
Scot la mezat pe rand simbria -
Seara de seara,
Sa-si faca Jeni meseria...
(Sa-si faca Jeni meseria!)
Vecina mea este tamplar (Jeni, oh, Jeni...)
Pare banal, sau poate rar (si Jeni e tare...)
Dar Jeni sa castige-un ban (Jeni, oh, Jeni...)
Are nevoie de ciocan. (Are nevoie de ciocan!)
Munca te-nvata, munca te-nalta ...
