Some Updates

I really don't know what the future hold for this blog. I certainly don't find myself posting to it very frequently, but I definitely won't be taking it down any time soon. (I get a lot of hits on some of the older entries.) Certainly, updates are owed to my readers, so here goes.

  • As listeners to the podcast already know, I'll be getting married in September and moving to Brazil. Probably, we'll be living in an apartment in this building (in case you want to check out the floor plan).
  • Before leaving the country, I'll be attending both Inconjunction and DragonCon. If you happen to be going as well, let me know, and we can meet in person.
  • I've been honored at the Podcast Pickle with the task of selecting the Featured Podcast of the day every day for four months. (That's 120 casts I have to find and write about!) You can see my selections on the main page.
  • I'm gradually putting up thousands of photos (mostly old ones) on Flickr.
  • You can also find me on twitter.
  • My podcasts can be found here and here.
  • Blog posts, podcast episodes, Flickr photos, and twitter entries all theoretically show up on my Jaiku page, your one-stop site for all things tvindy.

Time to Mow the Roof!

I pity the residents of this apartment building who still have to contend with mowing the lawn, which seems to exist without a purpose.

Hellmouth

This place is referred to as the "Boca do Inferno", which translates as Hellmouth. (I understand there's one in Sunnydale, too.)

Danger!

I came across this curious paper taped to a wall in the historic part of Lisbon. I've translated it below, leaving out the name and passport number:

Do You Know This Man?

If you don't, consider yourself lucky. If you do, then it's best to exercise caution. His name is *****, he's German, and his passport number is *****. He mostly hangs out in the areas of Príncipe Real, Bairro Alto, Castelo and Graça, and he's one of the biggest conmen to ever come to Portugal.

Never put money into his hand! You'll never see it again. . .

He came from Germany to escape from the debts he had there. He says he's a student, a teacher, a translator, a painter, but he's a salesman (The problem is that he sells contraband). . . Be very careful!

He never liked to work and has always depended on women to support him. He has betrayed friends and conned customers at a business that he created and then abandoned.

He specializes in biting the hand that feeds him. Furthermore he's homophobic and incapable of respecting anyone's privacy!

Be alert! Never trust him!

Wax Offerings

At Fátima religious pilgrims may purchase and burn wax representations of the things they want to pray for.
