This blog goes abandoned to the flies. Suddenly, it gave me feeling I having nothing to say to the world, not worthy subject to be discussed. Not that I've had no living in the meantime. Not so. I've been doing things: reading compulsively, buying books compulsively, thinking about unsolvable problems until you have vertigo, watching movies, like "Olga" ...
Oh, Olga deserves some comments.
She, the actress, is beautiful!
Talking Seriously, I think it is symptomatic the fact that a German woman has become a brazilian heroine. Why? Is missing native women with courage? Have we our own prejudices? I think sometimes that yes: another hero on the brazilian screens was Guevara, who just happens to be an argentinian. And let's be honest, Cazuza, a relatively famous brazilian singerman who died with AIDS, there was not no hero. An anti-hero, say, but not an example to follow, I think. Yes, we have Senna, that the Globo TV insists want to do he is like a national hero, and people urges to swallow this bullshit. I think, in fact, it's just a matter of time before he leaves the screen, like Renato Russo, another supossed loved brazilian leader band who died with AIDS. But what about the heroes? Lacerda, a comunist? Maybe, I liked him ...

Speaking seriously about Lacerda, imagine that an avenue or a main square of modern Germany in Berlin was called Avenue, or Square, Adolf Hitler. What about that? A scandal, is not it? For Brazil, the stature of a dictator like Getúlio Vargas, one president, still arouses longing, fifty years after his suicide. Why? Insufficient heroes in politics? Or, Vargas was not actually a real dictator? Oh, every little town in Brazil has a square or avenue named "Getulio Vargas". Why? Oh, he was a man of vision and modernized the country. Sure, but China is also modernizing under the communist boot. I could bring progress wrapped in blood.
It's Enough. For those who had nothing to say, I already said too much ...

One thing more holding my attention: the explosion of knowledge. The biblical apocalypse predicted: "... and knowledge shall increase ..."
Adding this multiplication to the fact that there is not in fact true knowledge, but only propositions that the authors want us to accept as true, and we must resign ourselves to the work of filtering from the information explosion what really matters.
I think the explosion of knowledge may be a problem very soon. Our knowledge will destroy us like a biblical plague if they do not restrict ourselves to its potential effects.
But this explosion is a topic for another day.
For now, let me away the flies from that blog with the little words I have on hand.
