Hearing the first notes of the show with the blue Corsairs was prelude to our scramble and we gathered in front of the TV set for adventures in archipelagoes. 'Matchbox' kits, we bought,
and we loved to play with the little models in our hands, our lips roaring or spitting some wet munitions. Black sheeps squadron. And we never missed a show were we could go and smell
the vaporized oil of the birds of fire on the tarmac. September and school had just beginned, behind the Skyraider, Cyrille and I, had a lot of smoke, a lot of wind and Mum would say, a lot of
dark oil spots turning my kaki jacket to some undetermined color jacket. Never mind, the star engine or the R-engine I love to hear. Bent wings gave the corsairs such a capacity and made them
stable platform for their fireworks engineery. Supermarine spitfire turned like noone until the Mustang arrived. Emil was quite a good buddy, but Gustav, he, loved to hide in the sun.
Corsairs, Boyington's guys might have been called, seen from clouds, but never they were Pirats.

What made America a great nation to the eyes of the world, though it was perfectible, was its history and its ability to assimilate, to agregate the different sensibilities and experiences of the
folks stepping in Ellis Island, after dark days on the ocean. And this image, is one of the main point, that the world likes to see. And for it has elected a man having this breath, a man
changing their expression, America, once again gives the Dream to the whole world and opens the door to possible and not for long impossible projects. President Kennedy bet on a man to walk on
the moon, and in all the nations of the free world, we could join hands and sing 'We've gone to the moon' no more than ten years later. Vision and projection. Isolationism is not an answer.
When a nation, when a civilization ignores the world, the world, he, still learns about her, and one day or another, Greeks are in Egypt, for they're bicultural, and centuries later, Romans
are in Athen for they're bicultural. Colonialism always have the same result. Seeds always give the same plants. Boomerang effect. Some people don't like it, Spartans, wanting the world never to
change, never to let man progress. Sorry, for their archaïc feelings, one day or another, things for them won't be to change. But for the livings, it's more than ever, time for change.

Child, I used to walk to the river, small one, called, the Orge, and with the licence I've bought in center town, my friends and I, with our gauls made of bamboo, spent sunny afternoons
eating sandwiches and drinking sodas or the water we brought in our flasks. A few years later, there were no fish anymore, only soap and
polysteren going down the river. Why then , a friend of mine suggested we would still go there with our radio-tape and have some beers nearby the place, where we had some
many great hours.
The boy was brillant but , for there were girls, always in our mind, the teenagers, womanizing we were, get angry with one another. University, we went separetly. And years passed.
Browsing the net, with my favorite seal, we finally get in touch, once again. And, naturally, the man had kept intact the whole I loved in him when we were
boys. It was written 'troutbreeder' as profession. And I remembered those sunny afternoons. Trouts. I knew he didn't like tango or foxtrot, but still was a heavy metal listener. He
was not in love with Juliet, for he was not a Romeo. He dealed with movies and documentaries and might get an Oscar so as to let me call him Victor. I was happy and suggested he might come on the
blue grey waters, see the seagulls flying around, in the sunrays of an after midday like many on Caladan...

Thinking is a question of culture in terms of method. Let me explain. Progression.
Learning is a process that implies that you create some new connections within your brain, modifying your DNA, in the same time. Those connectors and the relationship that is build between two
points of your grey cells is analogy. "Sun is good": Connection between the sun synapse and one connected to feeling of happyness for exemple. For most western people. In the South, there
are also some connectors with danger, water shortage, related to the sun connector. So when I go to analogy, I consider some new knowledge, something new for me, is similar to some previous
knowledge I had.
Strange. My first impression should be the right one, otherwise, I'll have a root connector generating some electromagnetic field preventing me from seeing reality as it is, out of the
cave.
And that is a big problem, that the process of knowledge, related to connectors, is using some organic substance we're addicted to. The things we know makes us feel comfortable. Unknown,
alien (I' ve heard this today, Hi Lisa Ripley!) ideas or things are inducing some disturbance within one's brain and the more specialized is a human being, the more intolerant he is, (see Annah
Arendt and her cover of trial).
Sex is natural, sex is good, yes Ma'am, and furthermore, it enables human being to go further than appearances and fast-food plates. I dislike frozen food, I eat fresh vegetables , and the
precooked, when not predigested food, I won't be dirty enough to ask my pet to eat it.
Back to progression, western mind is using linear, tree progression when other cultures might use circular connections. What difference does it make? A Big one, Ma'am! On your left , tree,
root and branches with priority, on your right circles with deduction and the lack of preview.
Two minds, two schools, and Historians belong to the second, whether they be New Orlans D.A. or Berkeley Teacher (Uncle Frankie !). First question is the objective description. Never a
subjection, as the word states it itself: behind under the influence of.

Mr President recently told, there would be a dog for his two daughters and it might be half-blood . Good news. In France, François was the last President to be known for
his walks by the river Seine and the bookstores with his black Labrador. But not a tradition yet. Sailors and fishermen know well those dogs for their name is the
same as the cold stream in which they could dive to rescue man-at-sea. They're brave dogs, often helping blind people to make their ways in town, loving children and being good keepers. Sure,
there might be some in Washington. But due to allergies, sometimes, you just can't have the one you'd like. But it's a great lesson, because dogs , like human being are not just shapes. And there
are many dogs, having the same qualities though they're not labradors. And certainly, the new ruler of oval office has got wise eyes to choose the best one, member of his family and a
mascot. Sopwith Camel and Triplanes pilots , in their chivalry jouts, we call dog-fights, also used to have mascots and fly with them.

Froggies just can't write another language properly. From the well's inn, so small the blue sky. Anyway, servers in Boulder would get it. Not the half of it. The litchi in the tree was
showing his red face. In the sealed flask, marshes and rebels. What if you call my name once opened? Mine flask is the sister of your. So, it's beautiful. Forgot to tell, who's on first? Noone!
Pranked by Abbott. You know , the white one from the North. Look his lips, the stormy Duke. No, it's not a video game. He's indian. Won't you stop it, Custer? Colonel, over there, there are many
Indians... Oh, you know men, I forgot. Please, ride... Don't forget you pale silk scarf! Garlic is his name. Adorable.

I love this commercial for soda with the old man having a bottle of the magical drink for the first time, before he calls the love of his life on the phone, goes for tattoes, motorcycle
riding or twin kitties observation, when not running like an Hemingway's wannabee in the streets of a spanish town. What is to be known? What will you say about yourself? Best, should be your
acts, meaning, what you always wanted. Some people are like the old man until he drunk the soda, others had so many lives during the time they spent on earth that they could split them in many
books. Writers. Of course, they are some weird specie and hard to understand out of their works. David Lynch might be the kind of a man, but partially. Of course, there are wonderful women and
men, but sometimes, though they wish it, they just don't know how to make you feel they love you. Question of faith, question of trust. Especially if I admit , one second, the one I want to
seduce can read my feelings. Honesty . Wealth is Humanity. Golden tokens are nothing to a cup of water. My experience is in my meetings. People consider if you're not straight ,
you're bent. Kentucky smokes talking. The world is wide and there are so many dimensions unexplored. Diplomas are papers. Like books, but I believe books can't be false, can be read
thousand times and always bring new faces to your mind. 'Syncretism and alternation' were the last words of a President, recorded by a TV team. This was the motto of a great writer. Men of the
trees.

Tataglia was still having his pasta with the chief of the walkers at his table. Then , stood up the host of so many honorable men in their Tuxedo: " And now, if you please, Mr Darcy will take you
for a ride on the back of his bais! Horsemen, follow me!" "Stricly bussiness", murmured the Italian who didn't leave his table. Mr Kent was writing his notes and feeling his flying underwear
itchy-scratchy. Mongolians had their own poneys and own saddles. Mr Lawrence, of course, had his brown vessel of Akaba. And friends were excited for such a night. Mrs Garland
was all at her Mr Gable. Mr Jeffries didn't want to tell about her. Jack Renaud was bookmaking. And Saki? Saki was enjoying this fellowship. They crossed the river and for the first time during
the last fifty years, there were five white swans cruising on the waters. It reminded of the black one, seen on the first page of a novel. But far more beautiful, the five of them. Cassandra
whispered something and Mr Julia, from the noble house of the antique family, for he had some members of the roman college dedicated to the reading of bird flights in his ancesters' tree, told it
was a good omen, obviously. If you were there, 'that night, you could hear the horseguards charge' and the little spoons and forks tumble. Right hand! York was at his witch burning after a
duck was brought. William and Adso were not fond of those fires, too much similars to the South: the girl didn't follow the fraticelli. Aristotle, lost one of his book, and simply added, "why
then, we shall smile..." . Naturally, it ended at the Tourelles and one for one, each of them with his beloved, fall asleep in the twister of night with its white stars, equations and
words. The man in black suit froze the picture, the show has began and another dimension has opened.

Ben Kingsley was so convincing for a little child watching movies that he made a boy share the incredible life of a lawyer became the Great Soul of a nation, under an ordinary sheet of white
cotton. Ben was so beautiful a Gandhi. Then there was the burial on the TV set, the same name, but the daughter of another Prime Minister. Follows, a Bangalese night, the parfume, the fragrance
of flowers, Jasmine, the warmth of summer, a fordidden love, then, another man's life, a doctor, fighting for his honor because a woman lost temper in caves. And the Brotherhood, of
course, Siddharta, whose feet taught so much by his humility; the adventure of the Red Jackets in Himalaya, Alexanders' Realms waiting for Kings, and of course, Zamzamah. What else? I'll tell you
about Bangalore, not its snakes but the phone calls with teams working on projects, I'll tell you the Gurka, the Man of India came at night in the Birmingham terminal with Rudyard smiling
behind his glasses. Ask Roald what it meant for him, Agatha would have many words through her Belgian detective's lips. But in the end, you can go through China, Thailand, Nepal, the monkey
king will take you to Hanuman to see a rocket fly to the moon. 'Makes the hard man humble', would sing Murray.
