Upfront and Impersonal

woke up for Nobel

noreply@blogger.com (burnt tortilla) — Fri, 09 Oct 2009 09:23:00 +0000

President Obama won the 2009 Nobel Peace Prize! OMG.
From Oslo:

The Nobel Peace Prize for 2009

The Norwegian Nobel Committee has decided that the Nobel Peace Prize for 2009 is to be awarded to President Barack Obama for his extraordinary efforts to strengthen international diplomacy and cooperation between peoples. The Committee has attached special importance to Obama's vision of and work for a world without nuclear weapons.

Obama has as President created a new climate in international politics. Multilateral diplomacy has regained a central position, with emphasis on the role that the United Nations and other international institutions can play. Dialogue and negotiations are preferred as instruments for resolving even the most difficult international conflicts. The vision of a world free from nuclear arms has powerfully stimulated disarmament and arms control negotiations. Thanks to Obama's initiative, the USA is now playing a more constructive role in meeting the great climatic challenges the world is confronting. Democracy and human rights are to be strengthened.

Only very rarely has a person to the same extent as Obama captured the world's attention and given its people hope for a better future. His diplomacy is founded in the concept that those who are to lead the world must do so on the basis of values and attitudes that are shared by the majority of the world's population.

For 108 years, the Norwegian Nobel Committee has sought to stimulate precisely that international policy and those attitudes for which Obama is now the world's leading spokesman. The Committee endorses Obama's appeal that "Now is the time for all of us to take our share of responsibility for a global response to global challenges."
Oslo, October 9, 2009

ps:
okay internutters: yes, feb. 1 was nomination deadline and Obama was only in office a few weeks but Oslo has exceptions to the process where the committee can add nominations after the deadline:

For your consideration, a song for Fall:
[[-- Empire State of Mind -- Blueprint 3 -- Jay-Z featuring Alicia Keys]]
In New York,
Concrete jungle where dreams are made of,
Theres nothing you can’t do,
Now you’re in New York,
These streets will make you feel brand new,
The lights will inspire you,
Lets here it for New York, New York, New York

One hand in the air for the big city,
Street lights, big dreams all looking pretty,
No place in the World that can compare,
Put your lighters in the air, everybody say yeaaahh
Come on, come,
Yeah.
[[ i love this song. have hit replay like, 5 times. ]]

Camping?

Road trip?
How about a road trip to Japan?
Google Maps can help you get there.
It will only take you 7,875 mi – about 35 days 3 hours -- from California to Japan.
Plus a kayak.

Under the rainbow

noreply@blogger.com (burnt tortilla) — Tue, 17 Mar 2009 04:35:00 +0000

I have been experiencing close encounters of the midget kind.
Midgets.
Dwarfs.
Little people.

Close encounter 1:
The republican carpool.
One of the middle schoolers I carpool around is a little person. My kidlette befriended Jane Doe Little Person (JDLP) over the summer, she had just moved to town and was about to enter the lion’s den aka junior high -- and my rock star daughter totally embraced this young lady’s sweet spirit and they became fast friends. JDLP dispelled any preconceptions I had about… republicans.

Close encounter 2:
Kidlette and I were at a yummy burger joint in Los Osos last week and there was a family of midgets at a table near us. Mom, Dad, little boy and toddler boy in a high chair. They were all little people. The boys had the most amazing blond curls, super cute!

An obnoxious pair of college students (both wearing Poly sweatshirts) sat at the table across from the family and the poly dolly leans across the table to her frat bf and says in a loud voice but shielding her face with the menu:
Dolly: “Like, I totally can’t eat if I have to stare at those people while I am eating! They make me sick to my stomach.”

Midget dad: looks over at her and starts laughing and shaking his head.

Polly dolly starts getting more obnoxious and saying how “gross” it is that people like them are allowed to have children, in the most high pitched squeaky voice. At this point the little toddler keeps turning around to see who is making all the racket, and the polly dolly finally gets up and moves.

The family got up and left, with the dad vibing the students as they walked out the door.

I wish I had said something before the family had left, but instead I went up to the polly dolly afterwords and said:
Me: “It’s ignorant sluts like you who make me sick to MY stomach. That sort of bigoted attitude makes you the ugliest person I have ever met.

Close encounter 3:
This morning I was at our uptown coffee shop reading the newspaper, when behind me I hear this man start to yell. Scream. Howl. Generally freaking the Shiite out of me. So this is one of those situations where the entire incident probably lasted like 3 seconds but it seemed like hours as it was unfolding.

My back is still turned to him, because I could tell that he was bat shit crazy, and if I drew any attention to him it could get worse. But then he starts talking. Scary Crazy talking:
“I’ve got my gun ready and I am going to blow your eyes out newspaper woman!” and so on and so forth.

So I look at the barristas because at this point they have stopped making drinks and are glancing towards the crazy man, with looks of not terror, but looks of complete befuddlement.

I look at the business guys sitting across from me and they too are looking over my shoulder towards bat shit crazy man…but NOT in an OMG we need to protect this woman from the man of terror, but rather looks of strained perplexity.

It is at this point I risk it all --- being shot in the head, tackled from behind, what have you, and just get up and turn and face my aggressor.

Um, well. He was a little person. A little mentally disturbed homeless little person. The moment I turned to face him, he walked out the door not saying a word.

My heart sank to my shoes, and I felt so bad for him. I thought about him most the day. Wondering what his story was, hoping he makes it through the crazy.

Dear Blog, it's me regret.

noreply@blogger.com (burnt tortilla) — Sat, 27 Dec 2008 05:24:00 +0000

Did you know that regret rhymes with Arquette.
And when i say Arquette, i mean Rosanna Arquette.
Yes that one.
The one who starred in Desperately Seeking Susan. The movie that changed my entire teenaged life. The movie that catapulted me into my 80s new wave persona that i have never managed to let go of - like EVER.

I met Rosanna today. (read: i stalked her)

Kidlette and i were seated at the counter of our local gaudy coffee shop and there she was.
Eating.
Eating and being surly to the waitress while at the same time doting on her daughter and trying to be casual with the simple real-world town folk.

I FREAKED THE FUCK OUT.
Oh.
My.
God.
Rosanna Arquette!!! Sitting, eating at the ... wait for it... Madonna Inn. (as in the kitschy Hotel...not the 80s icon Madonna who co-starred with her in the epic film...but holy sister choney, how fabulously ironic!!!)

So i am trying to hold it together and like a National Geographic special, I just gazed at her … so unreal!! There she was.
Meet you all the way, meet you all the way, rosannnnnuh
So I have regrets.
I regret not trying to get a picture of her
I regret not trying to talk to her
I regret losing the fake pyramid jacket from the movie my granny recreated for me
I regret that the 80s are totally over

Oh the regret!!!!

noreply@blogger.com (burnt tortilla) — Sun, 23 Nov 2008 16:10:00 +0000

been in E.LosAngeles for 6 days trying to help my elderly grandparents find a nursing home to move to. here are the highlights:
:: breakfast at the VFW, as well as lunch, and oh boy, dinner!
:: vietnam cholo vet at the VFW asking me to marry him while grabbing at my rack
:: my grandpa smacking vietnam cholo vet with his cane
:: 5 sleepless nights trying to convince my gramps that the house is not shaking, it is he who is shaking
:: finding out my greedy aunt established a trust for my grandparents where she is the beneficiary and their assets can't go to their care now. MOTHER FUCKER.
:: taking my grandma to church where she started washing herself in the holy water. (she has alzheimer's)
:: escaping to olvera street for taquitos and bringing back philippe's for my gramps.

reinforcements are on their way (my sister, bro-in-law, and my kidlette)

hoping all works out for my grandparents. thanks for your kind thoughts!

They're grrreat!
