Lemme tell your fortune

Sibiu bus station. This european-like city lodged some gipsies in the main gara, to my surprise. Surprise I say because in my naivety I was expecting this former european cultural capital to have solved its problems of sorts.

The gypsies were feeling free to do whatever, and since no one seemed to be upset, they can brestfeed the babies right there.

Some others were just minding their own business, waiting for the bus to show up.

They were basically hanging around, hunting with their eyes the credulous prey. I did not seem to qualify for such an honor, even with my easily noticeable camera that was making me look more like a tourist. I guess that was because I passed the test, when asked something in Romanian I answered back politely in the same language. Some others, less lucky, got surrounded by all these women, and their skirts.

The guy they put their claws on did not look Romanian. And if he was Romanian, he must have been very soft. The gypsy ladies were trying to sell him a fake golden ring and they all seemed to have a problem in getting to an agreement. One of them girls was smarter. She just took the money-that he had the brilliant idea to somehow take out- right from his hand and right away replaced it with the glittering tin. And so he was left, eyes gaping in the sun.

As insightfully requested in the previous post by a reader, I decided to make this post the second part of the dog story started before. So, briefly, here you go.

I was visiting Dragasani one day, a city nearby Valcea. I was just trying to make the time pass. And there he was, the little black dog. After few more steps, I have seen all his family waiting for him in front of the bank. I did not took take a photo of the bank itself, because I am not advertising.

Guardian dogs in romania streets

I think that lately, in order to save some money, banks hire unsheltered dogs as guardians.

Industrial grey landscape

Incapacitatea de comunicare e strans legata de starile conflictuale. De aceea exista opozitii care nu pot fi aduse la un numitor comun. Daca intr-o zi omenirea se va autodistruge, se va intampla pentru ca fiecare e mai bun decat celalat. Pacatele biblice, golite de orice notiune religioasa, raman in pozitia centrala a moralei. Caci exista razboaie pe fond religios, dar nu si pe fond moral.

In cele din urma, in cautarea adevarului trebuie sa ucizi si capra vecinului. Si studiile demonstreaza ca asa este!

Unii scorpioni sunt mai norocosi decat altii.
