&lt;p class=main&gt;As pessoas aqui no escritório que viram as cenas pela TV, estão dizendo que a fumaça lembra muito as cenas do WTC. O saldo do acidente, de acordo com os updates do rádio:&lt;br&gt;
-- 247 passageiros, 9 funcionários da America Airlines.&lt;br&gt;
-- Vôo 587 decolou do JFK às 9:15 e explodiu às 9:17.&lt;br&gt;
-- Local do acidente: Queens, Rockaway, Queens.&lt;br&gt;
-- O prefeito de NY disse que houve cerca de 20 funerais relacionados com a tragédia do WTC nessa área.&lt;br&gt;
-- Testemunhas viram destroços caírem do céu antes do avião atingir o chão.&lt;br&gt;
-- Vôo 587 tinha por destino Santo Domingo, na República Dominicana.&lt;br&gt;
-- Destroços caiu em uma área residencial, três casas, uma escola e um posto de gasolina.&lt;br&gt;
-- Manhattan está fechada. Ninguém entra, mas quem quiser sair, pode sair sem problema.&lt;br&gt;
-- Giuliani declarou Emergência Nível 1, o que significa estão todos alertas, mas ninguém ainda sabe o que causou o acidente.&lt;br&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3124367-7060056?l=meuchapa.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3124367/posts/default/7060056'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3124367/posts/default/7060056'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://meuchapa.blogspot.com/2001_11_11_archive.html#7060056' title=''/><author><name>jeancharles</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/04787116319954840123</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3124367.post-7059575</id><published>2001-11-12T10:08:00.000-05:00</published><updated>2001-11-12T10:08:25.213-05:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;p class=main2&gt;&lt;b&gt;Helicóptero visto voando perto do avião?&lt;/b&gt;
&lt;p class=main&gt;Deu no rádio: Uma mulher estava passeando com o cachorro quando viu um helicóptero passar em direção ao avião. Verdade ou mentira? Será possível que um helicóptero consegue derrubar um avião? Se for verdade, pode ser terrorismo. Por via das dúvidas, o prefeito Rudy Giulianni mandou fechar a cidade de Nova Iorque, todas as pontes e túneis estão bloqueados. Ninguém entra, ninguém sai. E o terror volta a tomar conta da gente.

Parabéns! Você está acima da média e prova com isso que é uma pessoa amante da literatura e domina muito bem a língua portuguesa. Pessoas como você se expressam bem em qualquer meio e não tem praticamente dificuldade alguma em entender textos considerados eruditos. Continue praticando.

&lt;p class=main&gt;Então, como disse, hoje eu fui à Nova Iorque. O motivo: entrevista de emprego. Apesar de estar empregado, não estou muito feliz com meu empregador atual, e resolvi ir à luta. Não tenho nada a perder, né mesmo? Então espalhei currículo pra tudo quanto é lado, só pra ver o que caía na rede. Não é que caiu um &lt;b&gt;peixão&lt;/b&gt;!&lt;br&gt;
Não vou dizer quem é por enquanto, pra não azedar. Se fisgar esse peixe, vai ser carreira na certa, como eu sempre sonhei.
&lt;br&gt;Vou ter que abaixar a crista um pouco, mas acho que eu tô precisando mesmo, porquê esquento muito a cabeça onde estou agora, com muitas responsabilidades e pouca recompensa (para os patamares americanos).&lt;br&gt;
Outra coisa que me fascina: se for contratado, vou trabalhar na Quinta Avenida!! Eu adora a cidade, o cheiro, a gente, o barulho, a confusão (sem terrorismo, claro).&lt;br&gt;
O convinte para uma entrevista chegou na Sexta passada, mas depois de vários troca-troca de mensagens, eu e meu futuro chefinho finalmente nos falamos via telefone na Segunda de tardezinha. Marcamos a entrevista para hoje. Foi &lt;b&gt;tão bom&lt;/b&gt; saber que alguém leu o meu currículo e me chamou para uma visita informal...&lt;br&gt;
Portanto, hoje, fui nessa entrevista. Conheci dois poderosos do departamento de "Imaging" dessa empresa, e mostrei meu portfolio. A entrevista foi bem (do meu ponto de vista), e no final eles me convidaram para fazer um teste de Photoshop. Vi como um bom sinal, porquê eu não sabia que haveria teste, e eles só me falaram do teste no final da entrevista. Fiz o tal do teste, um escrito e outro prático. Uma moleza (acho eu), e profundamente técnico. Fiquei super nervoso, uma bobeira de teste, e aquele monitor imenso na minha cara... Será mesmo que me saí bem?? Gente, que ansiedade...&lt;br&gt;
Estou morrendo de tesão pra ir trabalhar lá. Portanto, torçam por mim.&lt;br&gt;
Ontem recebi um e-mail de outra empresa, no Empire States Building, para outra entrevista. Fica a dois blocos da empresa que fui hoje. Pelo jeito, se esse não gorar já tenho outra chance semana que vem.&lt;br&gt;
Ah, e esse posting não vai ser traduzido, não.&lt;br&gt;
Não quero ninguém no meu trabalho descobrindo meus planos cruéis de abandoná-los...&lt;br&gt;
Tudo tem uma hora certa.&lt;br&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3124367-6975331?l=meuchapa.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3124367/posts/default/6975331'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3124367/posts/default/6975331'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://meuchapa.blogspot.com/2001_11_04_archive.html#6975331' title=''/><author><name>jeancharles</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/04787116319954840123</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3124367.post-6974728</id><published>2001-11-08T17:10:00.000-05:00</published><updated>2001-11-08T17:10:58.523-05:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;p class=main2&gt;&lt;b&gt;Hoje eu fui à Nova Iorque&lt;/b&gt;
&lt;p class=main&gt;Pela primeira vez desde o ataque terrorista de 11 de Setembro, fui à Nova Iorque hoje. Tirei o dia de folga, por motivos que dão outro posting. Pela primeira vez, vi, ainda que de longe, o que restou do WTC: um esqueleto de ferro. Estive na Quinta Avenida, próximo do Empire States Building, e vi uma Nova Iorque de sempre: Muita gente, muito trânsito, todo mundo com aqueles ares de quem têm muito o quê fazer. Nem parece que há menos de dois meses estavam todos correndo, temendo pela própria vida.

Depois de uma certa polêmicazinha, que começou aqui e terminou no &lt;a href="http://www.rua.blogspot.com/" target="_blank"&gt;Blog de Rua&lt;/a&gt; do Alverson, resolvi procurar no Google receitas de Canja de Galinha. Eu pensava que canja de galinha era canjiquinha com frango (nham nham!). Pois é, eu sou um &lt;b&gt;terror&lt;/b&gt; na cozinha. Acontece que Canja de Galinha realmente &lt;b&gt;é&lt;/b&gt; Chicken Rice Soup. E aqui está a &lt;a href="http://www.culinaria.uai.com.br/aves/ave005.htm" target="_blank"&gt;receita&lt;/a&gt;, já que o comedor de salmão assado, Alverson, me pediu uma.

&lt;p class="main"&gt;Terminei de encontrar o seguinte &lt;a href="http://platypus.blogspot.com/?/2001_10_01_platypus_archive.html" target="_blank"&gt;posting&lt;/a&gt; sobre o meu blog, lá no &lt;a href="http://platypus.blogspot.com/" target="_blank"&gt;Bloggety Blog&lt;/a&gt;, da Jenny Sinclair:&lt;br&gt;
&lt;p class="quote"&gt;&lt;font face="times" color="8376521"&gt;"I couldn't believe my eyes - Quase no acreditei."&lt;br&gt;
As well as blogging in Portuguese and English, Jean-Charles DeOliveira maintains a healthy list of Portuguese-language sites; a nice change from the standard list of sites that many English-only blogs seem to cut and paste from the same template (as long as you can read Portuguese, that is).&lt;br&gt;
DeOliveira writes most of his posts twice, once in each language, and kindly translates the odd Brazilian joke for the rest of us. Living in the United States as he does, his topics are less exotic; the World Trade Centre attacks, the TV show Friends, the apple pies his partner cooked for dinner, oh, and the turkeys that appeared outside his house and chased him last Tuesday morning (yes, turkeys.)&lt;br&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;hr&gt;
&lt;p class="main"&gt;&lt;b&gt;It's always nice to see comments like the one above, which also reminds me that I have been ignoring my English speaking readers. Sorry folks, I'll keep on trying to dub everything I can.&lt;/b&gt;
&lt;hr&gt;
&lt;p class="main"&gt;It will look like I'm kissing ass: I loved your blog at first sight, Jenny, and caught myself entertained by your so many different topics. I'll be stopping by often.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3124367-6923563?l=meuchapa.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3124367/posts/default/6923563'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3124367/posts/default/6923563'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://meuchapa.blogspot.com/2001_11_04_archive.html#6923563' title=''/><author><name>jeancharles</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/04787116319954840123</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3124367.post-6914515</id><published>2001-11-06T12:32:00.000-05:00</published><updated>2001-11-06T13:36:46.000-05:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;p class="main2"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Minha lista dos 10 (+) e (-):&lt;/b&gt;

&lt;p class="main"&gt;Criando a série "Bichos aqui de Casa", começo pelo Chips (Flocos). Ele é um coelho tipo &lt;i&gt;lop-ear&lt;/i&gt; (orelhas pra baixo), e nasceu em Julho de 1999. Tem um irmão, Caramelo, que também é uma graça, e será apresentado em outro posting, mais tarde.&lt;br&gt;
O Chips adora pular no ottoman da sala, onde ele têm uma vista ampla de todo o território. Ele também adora entrar dentro da cesta de roupa, geralmente já lavadas e secas, para desespero do Hubby Joe.&lt;br&gt;
O carinho favorito do Chips é ser massageado no estômago, deitado nos meus braços, como um bebê de colo. Ele dorme nessa posição, e já vi um filme inteirinho fazendo cafuné no sem-vergonha. O safadinho não deixa ninguém mais fazer isso, acho que ele confia mais em mim do que no Joe.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;

&lt;p class="main"&gt;O trick-or-treat aqui da vizinhança foi muito xoxo este ano. Geralmente, por volta das sete da noite a gente tem que ficar no escuro total e fingir que não tem ninguém em casa, porque o candy não foi suficiente pra todas as criancinhas, tão bonitinhas, fantasiadas das coisas mais engraçadinhas que você puder imaginar. Esse ano, eu o Hubby compramos apenas uma sacola de candy (ao contrário das três que geralmente compramos todo ano), porque já era esperado uma queda no número de crianças fazendo o trick-or-treat. Mas, para surpresa geral, desde às 8 da noite ninguém bate na porta, e tem chocolate aqui pro ano inteiro. Agora, haja self-control para não comer essas guloseimas todas... Coisa do Bruxo Osama, mesmo.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3124367-6772907?l=meuchapa.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3124367/posts/default/6772907'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3124367/posts/default/6772907'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://meuchapa.blogspot.com/2001_10_28_archive.html#6772907' title=''/><author><name>jeancharles</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/04787116319954840123</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3124367.post-6772847</id><published>2001-10-31T20:45:00.000-05:00</published><updated>2001-10-31T20:45:09.283-05:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;p class="main2"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Coisa de Bruxa - 2&lt;/b&gt;

&lt;p class=main&gt;My friend Elias, who doesn't have a blog yet, took me out to dinner for my birthday last Friday night. We (Elias, my hubby Joe, and I) went to a magnificent italian restaurant (Macaronni Grill) at the Palisades Mall, and then we went to see a late movie (K-Pax), which was interesting and intriguing (and probably another posting). But the high topic of the evening was the crayon offered by the waitress at the Macaronni Grill, which I grabbed enthusiastically and sketched the following shapes in the paper linen:&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
&lt;img src="http://www.jeantoday.com/blogs/Art4Blog/MrsPotatoLINES1.jpg" alt="Mrs. Potatohead Blue Lines"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;

&lt;p class=main2&gt;&lt;b&gt;The blue crayon was put to work&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
&lt;p class=main&gt;Joe and Elias wanted to know what was it. "I have no idea", I said. As we talked, and laughed, and remembered good times, I kept playing with the crayon. When we left the restaurant, this is what we had to take home with us:&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
&lt;img src="http://www.jeantoday.com/blogs/Art4Blog/MrsPotatoLINES2.jpg" alt="Mrs. Potatohead Blue Lines"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
&lt;p class=main&gt;The red spots are drippings from a delicious Chiante that I had that night.&lt;br&gt;


&lt;p class=main2&gt;&lt;b&gt;The Final Product&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br&gt;
&lt;p class=main&gt;After Joe and Elias lied to me, and said it was a funny cartoon, I decided to rip the linen and take it home with me. Later on, I had to fuss with it in Photoshop and here's the final product:&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;

&lt;p class=main&gt;Aos meus queridos leitores, perdoem-me pela ausência. Tirei umas férias do computador, de propósito, para aproveitar a vida um pouquinho. Aqui no trabalho tenho andado muito ocupado, e em casa perdi minha conexão DSL por causa dos ataques terroristas. Não tenho paciência para uma conexão lenta, nem quero ocupar minha linha telefônica. Mas vou ver se dou o ar da graça com mais frqüência.

&lt;p class="main"&gt;Hoje, quando cheguei em casa do batente, uma surpresa boa: Dois pacotes se destacaram do usual (bills, junk mail, more junk mail, more bills). Mesmo com toda essa ameaça de Anthrax, não tive dúvida e abri com vontade – eram do &lt;a href="http://www.rua.blogspot.com/" target="_blank"&gt;Alverson&lt;/a&gt;, meu amigo de Boston, que me mandou dois CD's, uma para o meu &lt;a href="http://www.bgmc.org/publicpages/store/eos.html" target="_blank"&gt;aniversário&lt;/a&gt;, e outro já adiantado, de &lt;a href="http://www.bgmc.org/publicpages/store/gloria.html" target="_blank"&gt;Natal&lt;/a&gt;. Hoh hoh hoh!&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
Já ouvi um inteirinho, agora vou dormir ouvindo o segundo. Obrigado, Alverson! Correspondência assim faz um bem danado ao coração da gente.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
Para os curiosos, os links dos CDs (acima) contêm trechos das músicas, caso você queira um tira-gosto desses CDs maravilhosos. Bom proveito.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
Ah, e a voz do Alverson também está lá, junto com &lt;a href="http://www.bgmc.org/" target="_blank"&gt;todas as outras&lt;/a&gt;!&lt;br&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3124367-6598239?l=meuchapa.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3124367/posts/default/6598239'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3124367/posts/default/6598239'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://meuchapa.blogspot.com/2001_10_21_archive.html#6598239' title=''/><author><name>jeancharles</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/04787116319954840123</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3124367.post-6584627</id><published>2001-10-24T13:41:00.000-04:00</published><updated>2001-10-24T14:31:55.000-04:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;p class="main2"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Reblogger is bouncing to nowhere&lt;/b&gt;

&lt;p class="main"&gt;Já que meu amigo &lt;a href="http://www.rua.blogspot.com/" target="_blank"&gt;Alverson&lt;/a&gt; deu com a boca na botija, o jeito é confirmar. Hoje é meu &lt;i&gt;aniversauro&lt;/i&gt;. Pois é, tô ficando tão velho quanto um dinossário. Pra variar, como toda terça-feira, estarei no batente das 9 às 11 da noite. Portanto, as celebrações só começam amanhã.&lt;br&gt;
&lt;p class="main"&gt;Well well well, my friend &lt;a href="http://www.rua.blogspot.com/" target="_blank"&gt;Alverson&lt;/a&gt; spreaded the news, therefore all I need to do is to endorse it. Yes, it's true — I'm getting older today, probably too old to be around. But today will be a typical Tuesday for me (I work from 9am to 11 pm every Tuesday), so if you wanna party with me, you'll all havatowaita til tomorrow.&lt;br&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3124367-6550476?l=meuchapa.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3124367/posts/default/6550476'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3124367/posts/default/6550476'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://meuchapa.blogspot.com/2001_10_21_archive.html#6550476' title=''/><author><name>jeancharles</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/04787116319954840123</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3124367.post-6524676</id><published>2001-10-22T10:32:00.000-04:00</published><updated>2001-10-22T15:44:11.000-04:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;p class="main2"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Graphics are missing&lt;/b&gt;

&lt;p class="main"&gt;O Alverson (veja dois posting abaixo) me fez lembrar de um posting que sempre quis postar mas que havia me esquecido (haja redundância nessa frase!). Acontece que eu também, quando adolescente, não gostava do meu nome, até que descobri que tinha uma grande vantagem de ter pouquíssima ou talvez nenhuma chance de encontrar um xará 100% (alguém que tenha o mesmo nome, nome do meio e sobrenome igual ao meu). Mas até que um mês e meio atrás, eu fiz um &lt;i&gt;search&lt;/i&gt; na net e descobri que, em Santa Catarina, vive um xará 100% meu. Gente, que sensação esquisita. Agora, quando se referirem a mim, têm que dizer "Jean-Charles de Oliveira, o de Nova Iorque", porquê tem outro em Santa Catarina! Sinto na pele o que sente todo José da Silva. Sei muito bem o que a Maria Aparecida Gonçalves está sentindo todos os dias da sua existência.

&lt;p class="main"&gt;Nunca pensei que, aos quase 34 aninhos de existência, iria ter que arrancar meu &lt;i&gt;Wisdom Tooth&lt;/i&gt; direito. Que horror. Que dor. Que experiência terrível. Não estou falando da dor fîsica, não. A experiência custou aos meus bolsinhos a bolada de U$175.00. O dentista foi muito atencioso, muito profissional, e até que fiquei impressionado com a arrancada relativamente fácil do dente. Mas quando fui pagar a conta... ai ai ai. Precisei ser levado de ambulância para o hospital mais próximo, onde eles arrancaram o meu coração, que explodira alguns minutos antes. Gente, e eu que trabalhei duas horas no meu computador outro dia, traduzindo uns documentos para um Brasileiro que eu nem conheço, e fiquei com pena de cobrar pelo trabalho de tradução. Aprendi uma boa lição. Chega de ser bonzinho, ainda mais agora que eu não tenho coração. Ah! — tive que lançar mão do dicionário eletrônico para "lembrar" que &lt;i&gt;Wisdom Tooth&lt;/i&gt; se traduz como "dente siso".

&lt;p class=main&gt;Ontem à noite foi uma daquelas noites em frente à tv sem nada pra ver. O Hubby é compulsivo quando pega no controle remoto, e haja saco pra aguentar o troca-troca de canal. "Posso mudar?", pergunta ele, depois de já ter mudado -- é claro. Mas ontem ele pagou o preço mais caro. Foi quando, de repente, a gente deu de cara com a feirante Nair Belo e aqueles dois pelados do Uga Uga, falando em espanhol, no canal Telemondo aqui de Nova Iorque. Fiquei curioso, é claro, e dei boas gargalhadas em ver atores brasileiros com vozes estranhas. Mas era o finalzinho da novela, e logo logo eles mostraram os créditos com a abertura. Surpresa geral. Era uma abertura totalmente diferente da original, e que por sinal muito melhor. A animação estava divertida, e a computação gráfica não era tão pesada quanto à da equipe do Hans Donner. Depois, depois eles anunciaram Fuerza Del Deseo, e eu resolvi esperar pra ver a abertura. Para minha surpresa, foi outra abertura feita para o Telemondo, muito bonita, com uma música interessante. Nada de gráficos complicados, nada de centenas de nomes de atores (apenas os principais). Uma abertura nota dez. A Globo tá precisando contratar a Telemondo pra fazer abertura de novela. Ah, e o hubby? Ele não aguentou tanto espanhol e foi dormir.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3124367-6380317?l=meuchapa.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3124367/posts/default/6380317'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3124367/posts/default/6380317'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://meuchapa.blogspot.com/2001_10_14_archive.html#6380317' title=''/><author><name>jeancharles</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/04787116319954840123</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3124367.post-6330117</id><published>2001-10-14T13:00:00.000-04:00</published><updated>2001-10-14T13:00:48.793-04:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;p class="main2"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Você não soube blogar . . .&lt;/b&gt;

&lt;p class="main"&gt;Depois de alguns telefonemas preocupantes que recebi ontem, pedindo que eu volte ao Brasil, comecei a refletir sobre como deveria reagir a esse previsível bombardeio no Afeganistão. E não mudei em nada em pensamento em relação à minha residência - definitiva - nos EUA.&lt;br&gt;
Não estou preocupado, nem com medo, da guerra. Tenho mais medo de trombadinha no Rio do que mulçumano fanático vestindo um cinto de dinamites e caminhando como quem não quer nada no lobby do meu prédio.&lt;br&gt;
No final os EUA vão vencer, e tudo isso será mais uma mancha negra na história.&lt;br&gt;
Estou aqui em Nova Iorque, pertinho de Manhattan, mas em nenhum momento pensei em voltar.&lt;br&gt;
Estou enraízado aqui, e seria arrogante de minha parte sair correndo de volta pro Brasa, depois de tudo de bom que desfrutei dos EUA. Eu não sou aquele garoto do "The Giving Tree".&lt;br&gt;
Queria que não houvesse guerra, e sei que vai haver retaliação. Mas mesmo assim sinto-me seguro aqui. Achei o cúmulo quando vi na televisão alguns brasileiros voltando e beijando o chão no aeroporto brasileiro (depois do ataque do dia 11 de Setembro).&lt;br&gt;
Além de covardes, essas pessoas são a razão de certo preconceito contra o imigrante aqui nos EUA. Os EUA recebem de braços abertos os imigrantes que querem vir, vencer e FICAR.&lt;br&gt;
Os que só vêem para juntar uma grana são abutres na carniça, usam o sistema americano sem pagar um centavo de imposto. Usam as estradas boas, as pontes maravilhosas, o sistema de saúde. Não pagam nada ao governo, porquê trabalham ilegalmente. Merecem voltar pro Brasil.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3124367-6202607?l=meuchapa.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3124367/posts/default/6202607'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3124367/posts/default/6202607'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://meuchapa.blogspot.com/2001_10_07_archive.html#6202607' title=''/><author><name>jeancharles</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/04787116319954840123</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3124367.post-6169835</id><published>2001-10-07T11:54:00.000-04:00</published><updated>2001-10-07T12:05:41.000-04:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;p class=main2&gt;&lt;b&gt;A Brazilian cartoon&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br&gt;

&lt;p class=main&gt;Pelo que vejo nas chamadas da Globo International, o novo Sítio do Pica-Pau Amarelo têm muito a decepcionar os fans da série original. Nicete Bruno como Dona Benta, que tristeza. Será que dá pra clonar a Zilka, por favor?? A aparência dos novos Visconde, Rabicó, e até Tia Nastácia, estão de chorar. Penso que eles estão tentando imitar os desenhos originais, publicados nos livros de Monteiro Lobato. A Emília nova (no remake) é muito feia, mas está muito parecida com a Emília dos livros. Um remake nunca chegará aos pés do original. Mas mesmo assim espero que seja tão bom para as crianças dessa geração quanto foi para a nossa geração.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
Eu descobri o Sítio já no segundo ano da série, depois que todo mundo na escola só falava da Cuca. Acho que eu estava na terceira ou quarta série primário. Mas creio que assisti a todos os episódios, lembro-me bem que cheguei a pesquisar a ordem das histórias e marcar em um caderninho quais eu já tinha visto e quais eram reprise, até finalmente acompanhar a história. Mas o Sítio foi abaixo depois que começaram o troca-troca de Pedrinhos e Narizinhos. Eu acabei perdendo o interesse (mesmo assim assisti a todos os episódios).&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
E as Emílias? Na minha opinião, &lt;b&gt;Reny de Oliveira&lt;/b&gt; foi a melhor Emília. Alguém sabe por onde a Reny anda?? A Globo simplesmente não comenta o nome dela, ao que me parece. Será que ela está na lista negra deles desde quando saiu do Sítio?? Gente, se for, êta emissora vingativa. A última Emília foi um porre, e nem lembro o nome da atriz. (Suzana Abranches, achei no Estadão)&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
E quem da minha geração ainda se lembra das canções do Sítio? A melhor trilha que eu já vi na minha vida, as letras eram maravilhosas, as canções, inesquecíveis. A minha preferida era a do Malazartes e Zé Carneiro (&lt;i&gt;Violeiro, violeiro, etc.&lt;/i&gt;), provavelmente porque eu tinha 12 anos. Hoje, &lt;a href="http://www.igs.net/~icruz/chico/all/0198.html" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Passaredo&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/a&gt; é a minha preferida.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;

&lt;p class=main&gt;Uma das coisas mais complicadas de se compreender quando se visita os EUA é a tal da gorgeta. No Brasil, a gorgeta vêm estampada na conta, e geralmente, como o próprio nome já diz, é uma "gorgeta" -- um adicional pelo bom serviço, um extra -- e subtende-se que a pessoa que te presta o serviço têm um salário garantido, independentemente das gorgetas. É bem provável que o dono de um restaurante no Brasil calcula o salário dos garçons e repassa essa despesa nos preços do cardápio.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
Aqui nos EUA a coisa é diferente. O garçom recebe um salário simbólico de aproximadamente U$2.00 por hora, e todos, patrões e clientes, entendem que a gorgeta é realmente o &lt;b&gt;salário&lt;/b&gt; do prestador de serviço. Isso vale para muitas profissões aqui nos EUA (taxistas, entregadores de pizza,  lavadora de cabelo no salão de beleza, massagista, e muitos outros).&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
O valor da gorgeta varia de profissão, de mão de obra, e da qualidade do serviço. Como regra geral, um garçom espera receber um salário de pelo menos 15% da conta, antes das taxas. Se o serviço for de qualidade inferior, o cliente têm o direito de reduzir a percentagem, ou até mesmo não pagar gorgeta nenhuma. Se o serviço for excelente, é comum pagar 20% de gorgeta (note-se que eu estou usando o verbo "pagar" a gorgeta, e não "dar").  Alguns restaurantes avisam no menu que se a mesa for de mais de 6-8 pessoas, a gorgeta será incluída automaticamente na conta. Isso é aceitável porque facilita o cálculo da gorgeta em uma conta grande. Fora dessa excessão, um restaurante ou garçon que incluí o valor da gorgeta na conta é considerado rude, brega, e principalmente ofensivo. O único restaurante que eu já fui aqui nessas bandas que inclui a gorgeta na conta é justamente uma Churrascaria a Rodízio (Braseiro). Meus amigos americanos acabaram pagando a gorgeta em dobro, se ofenderam e não querem voltar lá. Foi um mau negócio pro Braseiro Churrascaria.
&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
Se você pedir pizza nos EUA, veja este &lt;a herf="http://www.tipthepizzaguy.com/" target="_blank"&gt;site&lt;/a&gt; (em Inglês) sobre como pagar uma gorgeta para o entregador de pizza. Todo &lt;i&gt;pizza boy&lt;/i&gt;, por exemplo, está tendo despesas do próprio bolso (tempo, desgaste do carro, e gasolina) para entregar uma pizza quentinha na sua casa -- e é considerado o terceiro emprego mais perigoso nos EUA, perdendo somente prá policial e taxista.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
Tudo isso me fez lembrar um &lt;i&gt;causo&lt;/i&gt; que aconteceu comigo, em 1994, quando havia chegado do Brasil e ainda não sabia direito esse lance de "tip" (tradução mais próxima: &lt;i&gt;gorgeta&lt;/i&gt;). Eu estava preso em casa, sozinho, devido à uma grande tempestade de neve. Eu não tinha carro e não tinha comida em casa. Estava faminto, e então liguei pra primeira pizzaria que achei nas páginas amarelas cujo anúncio incluía o nome da minha cidade -- então Westwood, NJ. Pedi uma pizza de chicken with mushrooms, e 40 minutos depois ouvi alguém batendo na porta. Uma moça de uns 16 anos, tremendo de frio, toda enrolada em múltiplos casacos, estava lá, sorridente, com a salvação para o meu tummy (estômago) em uma caixa de papelão. Perguntei quanto era, ela me deu o preço. Voltei ao meu quarto -- fui na carteira --, contei as moedas certinhas, fui até à porta e contei o dinheiro na frente dela, dólar por dólar, quarters, nickels e pennies, disse "thank you" e fechei a porta por que estava muito frio. Nem um centavo de gorgeta. Só fui descobrir o meu gafe meses depois, quando, como garçon em um restaurante italiano, fui compreender como funciona o sistema de gorgetas nos EUA. Até hoje me sinto culpado.
&lt;br&gt;Para minha defesa, eu jamais havia pedido pizza no Rio de Janeiro, eu sempre saía com os amigos pra comer pizza -- &lt;i&gt;nevasse&lt;/i&gt; ou não -- no Palheta da praça Saenz Peña. Um abraço, Tijuca!&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
Achei esse &lt;a href="http://www.tipping.org/tips/TipsPageTipsUS.html" target="_blank"&gt;site&lt;/a&gt; sobre etiquetas de gorgeta para várias proffisões diferentes aqui nos EUA. Se você tá vindo pra cá, ou mora aqui, vá lá conferir.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3124367-6140171?l=meuchapa.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3124367/posts/default/6140171'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3124367/posts/default/6140171'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://meuchapa.blogspot.com/2001_09_30_archive.html#6140171' title=''/><author><name>jeancharles</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/04787116319954840123</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3124367.post-6120750</id><published>2001-10-04T22:50:00.000-04:00</published><updated>2001-10-04T22:59:46.000-04:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;p class=main2&gt;&lt;b&gt;I'm flattered&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br&gt;

&lt;p class-main&gt;Vi lá na &lt;a href="http://gringolandia.cjb.net/" target="_blank"&gt;Gringolândia&lt;/a&gt; uma lista de piadinhas sobre a tragédia do WTC. Mau gostos à parte (como é que alguém pensa em fazer chacota de uma coisa dessas? -- mesmo sem ser culpa da Deb, ela até se desculpou por estar postando as piadinhas), eu me deparei com uma linha que chamava Michael Jackson de "&lt;i&gt;pedófilo homossexual&lt;/i&gt;". Rangi os dentes e apertei o mouse com tanta força que até miou. Lembrei-me que ainda existe muita gente que não entende o abismo semântico entre esses dois termos, o que resulta diretamente em muito preconceito contra os homosexuais. Portanto, e com base na piadinha no blog da Deb, segue aqui um humilde esclarecimento sobre os termos:
&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
Michael Jackson não é um pedófilo homossexual porque isso não existe. Existem pedófilos, existem pederastas e existem homosexuais. Um adulto (do sexo masculino ou feminino) que deseja seduzir, que seduz e/ou que comete atos sexuais com uma criança (qualquer uma, seja  do sexo masculino ou feminino -- a idade varia de acordo com a lei de cada país) é um pedófilo. Um homem adulto que faz sexo com um menino é um pederasta (explicarei esse termo no final do posting). Esses dois atos são repugnantes -- e contra a lei em qualquer país civilizado -- porquê apenas uma parte (o adulto) têm vontade própria, enquanto que a criança envolvida não passa de uma criança, of course.
&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
Dois adultos do mesmo sexo que mantém um relacionamento íntimo são homosexuais. Ambos têm o mesmo nível de intelecto, portanto não é -- nem deve ser -- considerado um ato ilegal. Cabe a cada religião aceitar ou não o homosexualismo, e cabe aos homosexuais aceitarem ou não o que lhes é imposto por suas religiões. Como governo, a sociedade não deve punir dois adultos do mesmo sexo que dividem suas vidas, eles fazem entre si o mesmo contrato de fidelidade, união e amor que um casal heterosexual fez no cartório. Mas isso vira outro posting pra outro dia.
&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
Infelizmente, existe a terceira opção, ou seja, um homosexual adulto que infelizmente também é um pedófilo. Igualzinho ao cenário heterossexual (ou seja, um heterossexual adulto que infelizmente também é um pedófilo). Aliás, as estatísticas provam que a maioria dos casos de pedofilia ocorrem entre pai e filha, ou seja, o pai é heterossexual e pedófilo (vou pesquisar isso mais tarde).
&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
Terminei de lembrar-me de um detalhe: A sinopse da história &lt;b&gt;Presença de Anita&lt;/b&gt; se resume em uma palavra: "Pedofilia". O papel do José de Abreu foi um exemplo clássico de pedofilia de um adulto heterosexual naquele seriado da &lt;a href="http://www.globo.com/" target="_blank"&gt;Rede Bôbo&lt;/a&gt;.
&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
Não é justo para os gays terem que ser taxados como pedófilos ou pederastas. Essa confusão de nomes aliás não acontece aqui nos EUA. Os americanos não confundem essas duas palavras (pedophile -vs- homosexual). E não sabem o significado da palavra pederast, que está no dicionário do Word mas que nenhum americano aqui no meu escritório soube definir de sopetão. Voltando ao termo "pederasta", sei que muitos discordarão de mim. Mas baseio-me na semântica da palavra para separá-la do homosexualismo. 
&lt;hr&gt;&lt;br&gt;
&lt;p class-main&gt;Aqui vai algumas definições (traduzidas) do "The Random House Dictionary of the English Language", Second Edition:&lt;br&gt;
-- &lt;b&gt;Pederasta:&lt;/b&gt; Pessoa que se envolve em pederastia. Agora falando sério: &lt;b&gt;Pederastia:&lt;/b&gt; Relações sexuais entre duas pessoas do sexo masculino, particularmente quando uma delas é menor de idade. [Grego: &lt;i&gt;paiderastía&lt;/i&gt;, amor por meninos, equivalente a &lt;i&gt;paid&lt;/i&gt;=menino, criança; + &lt;i&gt;erastés&lt;/i&gt;=amante] [1605-15]
&lt;br&gt;
-- &lt;b&gt;Pedofilia:&lt;/b&gt; &lt;i&gt;Psiquiatria&lt;/i&gt;.  Desejo sexual de um adulto por uma criança. [Grego: &lt;i&gt;paidóphilos&lt;/i&gt;, amante de crianças] [1905-10 -- Pedófilo: 1950-55]
&lt;br&gt;
-- &lt;b&gt;Homosexualidade:&lt;/b&gt; Desejo sexual ou comportamento direcionado à outra pessoa ou pessoas do mesmo sexo. [1890-95]
&lt;hr&gt;&lt;br&gt;
&lt;p class-main&gt;Se a piada quis chamar o Michael de ambos, homosexual &lt;b&gt;e&lt;/b&gt; pedófilo, eu respeito a liberdade de opinião do piadista, mas que faltou um "ezinho" entre os dois termos, faltou. Quanto à Deb, sei que a piadinha não foi dela, ela apenas "passou pra frente" mais um desses e-mails forward que chegam de caminhão todos os dias nos inboxes dessa vida virtual.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3124367-6067434?l=meuchapa.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3124367/posts/default/6067434'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3124367/posts/default/6067434'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://meuchapa.blogspot.com/2001_09_30_archive.html#6067434' title=''/><author><name>jeancharles</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/04787116319954840123</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3124367.post-6046411</id><published>2001-10-01T21:53:00.000-04:00</published><updated>2001-10-01T22:00:17.000-04:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;p class=main2&gt;&lt;b&gt;How to speak Portuglish - Falando Portuglês&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
&lt;p class=main&gt;• &lt;b&gt;Blog de Rua&lt;/b&gt;, a blog by my old friend &lt;a href="http://www.rua.blogspot.com/" target="_blank"&gt;Alverson&lt;/a&gt;, has a &lt;a href="http://rua.blogspot.com/?/2001_10_01_rua_archive.html" target="_blank"&gt;posting today&lt;/a&gt; about the amazing idiom called spoken by Brazilian who live in the US, which I call &lt;i&gt;Portuglish&lt;/i&gt;. I was just about to write a posting about the same subject, because I got a mental block when I tried to say in Portuguese the words "to set up an appointment", but I could think of was the made-up words that Brazilians created in the U.S. to communicate with other fellow Brazilians -- these words work in Portuguese here but will never have any meanings in Brazil (or perhaps even in Portugual). If you understand both languages, go check some other examples at Alverson's &lt;i&gt;Blog de Rua&lt;/i&gt;.
&lt;p class=main&gt;• O &lt;b&gt;Blog de Rua&lt;/b&gt;, do meu amigo de longas praias &lt;a href="http://www.rua.blogspot.com/" target="_blank"&gt;Alverson Brilho&lt;/a&gt;, têm um &lt;a href="http://rua.blogspot.com/?/2001_10_01_rua_archive.html" target="_blank"&gt;posting hoje&lt;/a&gt; sobre o &lt;i&gt;Portuglês&lt;/i&gt;. Eu estava pra escrever um posting sobre isso, justamente porquê fiquei atracado quando quis dizer "to set up an appointment" em Português, e tudo o que me vinha à cabeça era "fazer um apontamento", como dizem nossos amigos Brasileiros que moram aqui nos EUA. Pra quem não sabe traduzir Portuglês, quer dizer: "marcar uma consulta ou entrevista." Pra ver outros exemplos, vá lá no &lt;i&gt;Blog de Rua&lt;/i&gt;.

&lt;br&gt;
&lt;p class=main&gt;• I've been very busy at work, due to major changes around here. It seems everything will be calmer by Thursday, let's see. I worked day and night this weekend, and I still have a lot to go through in order to be up and running smoothly on my new position, which gives me a lot more responsibility -- including the whole office staff -- to take care of. Very scary, but it feels great!
&lt;p class=main&gt;• Tenho andando super ocupado ultimamente, devido à sérias mudanças aqui no emprego. Parece que tudo vai se acalmar na Quinta feira, vejamos. Trabalhei dia e noite nesse fim de semana, e ainda tenho muito o que fazer para transformar minha nova posição em algo eficiente (para a empresa) e saudável (para mim). Agora tenho mais responsabilidades, inclusive gerenciamento de todo o pessoal. Atterrorizante, mas ao mesmo tempo -- deixa eu tentar uma gíria que aprendi nesses blogs da vida -- "irado"!

&lt;br&gt;
&lt;p class=main&gt;• I've been trying to avoid the World Trade Center terrorist atack subject, but today at work I was moving offices when i found this &lt;a href="http://www.jeantoday.com/blogs/pages/ert.html" target="_self"&gt;USA manual on terrorism&lt;/a&gt; among the thousands of papers and books we use to produce our newspaper. I scanned the cover of the booklet, go check it out -- it's interesting and surprising.
&lt;p class=main&gt;• Tenho tentado evitar o assunto "Ataque aos EUA", mas hoje no trabalho quando eu me mudava de um escritório para outro, eu achei esse &lt;a href="http://www.jeantoday.com/blogs/pages/ert.html" target="_self"&gt;manual sobre terrorismo do governo Americano&lt;/a&gt; perdido entre os milhares de papéis e livros que a gente usa pra produzir um jornal. Dê uma olhada na capa do livro, é interessante e surpreendente.
&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
&lt;p class=main&gt;&lt;b&gt;Addendum #1:&lt;/b&gt; Eu já havia pensado nesta hipótese, Alverson (veja &lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Your Thoughts&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/i&gt;) . Mas mesmo assim a ilustração do alvo, em dois terços do prédio, ficou muito parecido com o que aconteceu no dia 11 último. Eles poderiam ter usado um desenho do mapa dos EUA com um alvo no meio etc. Ou o Empire States Building, sei lá. Enfim, a ilustração ficou meio que profética não porque eles atacaram as torres gêmeas (o que todos já esperavam mais cedo ou mais tarde), mas porquê ficou parecida com a visão do piloto suicida, vendo seu alvo se aproximar à altura do andar em que ele queria atingir.
&lt;p class=main&gt;&lt;b&gt;Addendum #1:&lt;/b&gt; Alverson dropped on note on the &lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;"Your Thoughts"&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/i&gt; section, saying that they probalby used this illustration because of the 1993 attack on the WTC. I had thought of that when I posted it, but I was on a hurry to post and forgot to mention that part. My point was: They could have used any other illustration (a map of the U.S. with a target in the middle for example, or any other building, such as the Empire State Building). But the drawing turned out to be prophetic not because they attacked the WTC again (everybody suspected that could happen again one day or the other), but because the target resembles the view that the terrorist pilot had from the inside of the airplane, as he approached his target before killing thousands of innocent people.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3124367-6000373?l=meuchapa.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3124367/posts/default/6000373'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3124367/posts/default/6000373'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://meuchapa.blogspot.com/2001_09_23_archive.html#6000373' title=''/><author><name>jeancharles</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/04787116319954840123</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3124367.post-5993794</id><published>2001-09-29T10:02:00.000-04:00</published><updated>2001-09-29T10:35:49.000-04:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;p class=main2&gt;&lt;b&gt;The Glass House - A Casa de Vidro&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
&lt;p class=main&gt;• Last night I went to the movies with hubby Joe and our friends Vinnie &amp; Del. We saw &lt;a href="http://www.spe.sony.com/movies/theglasshouse/" target="_blank"&gt;The Glass House&lt;/a&gt;. It was one of those thrillers with a predictable end (bad guys fail - good people prevail etc). &lt;a href="/starsnews/starprofile.adp?movieid=9827&amp;date=20010929&amp;starId=7720" target="_blank"&gt;Leelee Sobieski&lt;/a&gt; was really impresive as a tough 16 y.o. &lt;a href="http://mrshowbiz.go.com/celebrities/people/helenhunt/bio.html" target="_blank"&gt;Helen Hunt&lt;/a&gt;. If they ever do a movie when Helen Hunt has do drive back in time, Sobieski can play her younger version, and the audience will believe that it's still the same actress (Hunt) -- her young looks is nothing else than a well done make-up job. In another words, if La Toya and Michael are the same person, chances are Sobieski and Hunt were cloned from the same DNA code. I have to rate it a &lt;b&gt;2 1/5&lt;/b&gt; (out of 5), only because I knew it wasn't a great movie and I decided to pay to go see it anyway. If I were expecting a good movie, than I would rate it even lower.
&lt;p class=main&gt;• Ontem fui ao cinema com o hubby Joe e nossos amigos Vinnie &amp; Del. Vimos &lt;a href="http://www.spe.sony.com/movies/theglasshouse/" target="_blank"&gt;The Glass House&lt;/a&gt; (A Casa de Vidro). Foi um típico thriller cujo fim estava escrito nas estrelas irracionais de Hollywood, e que eles usam para terminar um thriller desde que eu me entendo por gente (bandido perde, mocinho vence etc). A atriz &lt;a href="/starsnews/starprofile.adp?movieid=9827&amp;date=20010929&amp;starId=7720" target="_blank"&gt;Leelee Sobieski&lt;/a&gt; impressionou como uma adolescente durona chamada &lt;a href="http://mrshowbiz.go.com/celebrities/people/helenhunt/bio.html" target="_blank"&gt;Helen Hunt&lt;/a&gt; [no filme, eles a apelidaram de Ruby Baker]. A semelhança entre as duas atrizes foi assustadora. Se algum dia Hollywood fizer um filme em que Helen Hunt tem que viajar de volta ao tempo, a jovem Sobieski pode atuar no papel mais jovem, e a platéia acreditará piamente que ainda é a mesma atriz (Hunt) carregando uma tonelada de maquiagem para parecer mais nova. Se o filme fosse brasileiro, Fernanda Torres jamais conseguirá se passar como uma Fernanda Montenegro jovem -- note-se que Fernandinha &lt;b&gt;é&lt;/b&gt; uma &lt;i&gt;Filha da Mãe&lt;/i&gt;. Se La Toya e Michael são a mesma pessoa, então pode-se afirmar que Sobieski e Hunt foram clonadas do mesmo traço de DNA. Eu dou a nota &lt;b&gt;2.5&lt;/b&gt; (de uma máxima 5), somente porquê eu sabia que o filme não prestava, mas decidi pagar pra ver mesmo assim. Se eu estivesse entrado baseado no trailer, então minha nota seria mais reduzida ainda.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3124367-5993794?l=meuchapa.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3124367/posts/default/5993794'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3124367/posts/default/5993794'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://meuchapa.blogspot.com/2001_09_23_archive.html#5993794' title=''/><author><name>jeancharles</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/04787116319954840123</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3124367.post-5969375</id><published>2001-09-28T02:09:00.000-04:00</published><updated>2001-09-28T02:12:39.000-04:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;p class=main2&gt;&lt;b&gt;American pie - A casa da Vovó Donalda&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br&gt;

&lt;p class=main&gt;• Tonight I got home from work and my hubby Joe was baking apple pies -- he made five of them. I love the smell of cooked apples with cinnemon, and with the wheather outside, I sure felt Fall is here.
&lt;p class=main&gt;• Hoje quando cheguei em casa meu hubby Joe estava assando tortas de maçã -- cinco delas. Depois do episódio de anteontem com os perus, quando vi tanta torta espalhada na cozinha, me senti parte de um fazenda de gibi, um Sítio do Pica-pau Amarelo americano, sei lá. Lembrei-me da Vovó Donalda, da Disney, que cozinhava tortas de maçã e botava na janela pro Tico e Teco roubar. Mas, gente, eu moro tão pertinho de Nova Iorque... aqui não tem fazenda não. Pensando bem, tem sim. A única fazenda da região (que eu conheço) é a do &lt;a href="http://www.accucom.net/anneodel/Rockefeller.html" target="_blank"&gt;Rockefeller&lt;/a&gt;, que na verdade é um pasto de gado e cavalos enorme, muito bonito. Fica mais ou menos há 15 minutos da minha casa. Pra se chegar a uma região mais tipicamente rural, demora pelo menos umas duas horas de carro, lá pras bandas da Pensylvannia.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3124367-5969375?l=meuchapa.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3124367/posts/default/5969375'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3124367/posts/default/5969375'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://meuchapa.blogspot.com/2001_09_23_archive.html#5969375' title=''/><author><name>jeancharles</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/04787116319954840123</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3124367.post-5968411</id><published>2001-09-28T01:04:00.000-04:00</published><updated>2001-09-28T01:23:30.000-04:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;p class=main2&gt;&lt;b&gt;The Turkey Movie - O clipe com os perus&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br&gt;

So, go enjoy the &lt;a href="http://www.jeantoday.com/blogs/pages/turkeymovie.html" target="_self"&gt;Turkey Movie&lt;/a&gt;, it's better than many Hollywood movies I've seen. &lt;font face=times&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;By the way, it's almost 3 MB, so beware of a lengthy download if you don't have broadband connection.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;br&gt;
&lt;p class=main&gt;• Eu sei que estou passando dos limites — e prometo a mim mesmo que &lt;b&gt;chega de perus&lt;/b&gt;. Portanto, divirta-se com o &lt;a href="http://www.jeantoday.com/blogs/pages/turkeymovie.html" target="_self"&gt;Turkey Movie&lt;/a&gt;, é melhor que muito "filme peru" (gíria em Inglês para filmes de péssima qualidade), que já paguei pra ver no cinema. Só espero que a versão em português não seja entitulada com algum nome exdrúxulo, tipo "As peruas e o imigrante", ou, pior, "A incrível história de uma novela das sete que é um saco, têm um rap fajuto e ninguém consegue lembrar o título original, mas que tem um monte de peruas nela, isso tem sim".  &lt;font face=times&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Antes que me esqueça, o arquivo é de quase 3 MB, portanto não diga que eu não avisei se demorar pra carregar no seu micro.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3124367-5968411?l=meuchapa.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3124367/posts/default/5968411'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3124367/posts/default/5968411'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://meuchapa.blogspot.com/2001_09_23_archive.html#5968411' title=''/><author><name>jeancharles</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/04787116319954840123</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3124367.post-5966766</id><published>2001-09-27T23:38:00.000-04:00</published><updated>2001-09-28T01:58:52.000-04:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;p class=main2&gt;&lt;b&gt;The Fall TV line-up - A nova temporada de TV aqui nos EUA&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
&lt;p class=main&gt;• I usually hear TV more than I watch it, because I can't stand wasting my time in front of a television. I also know I can be addicted very easily to a series, soup, show, any garbage or junk made with the sole purpose of selling ad space. But there are some TV shows that I can't help avoiding to avoid them. And I was really happy to see them back this week, mostly tonight: In order of preference: &lt;a href="http://nbc.com/Will_&amp;_Grace/" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Will &amp; Grace&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://nbc.com/Just_Shoot_Me/" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Just Shoot Me&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://nbc.com/Friends/" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Friends&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/a&gt;. On Monday &lt;a href="http://www.cbs.com/primetime/ellen_show/" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Ellen Degeneres&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/a&gt; was back on TV doing what she can do best: comedy without politics. It was awsome, almost as good as the old Ellen shows. I hope it's a keeper, and this will be the only new sitcom I want to watch this season, only because I believe Ellen deserves to recover what she lost because of her brave effort of doing something good with her last show (which cost her the show itself). The other show I like a lot is &lt;a href="http://nbc.com/Frasier/" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Frasier&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/a&gt;, but unfortunatelly it's on a night that I work until 11 p.m., and I never remember to leave a tape on my VCR before I leave my house in the morning. These five shows are together more than enough TV I can handle per week. 30 minutes x 5 = 2 hours and 1/2. Plus all the &lt;a href="http://www.netflix.com/" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;movies I see&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/a&gt;, the stupid &lt;a href="http://redeglobo5.globo.com/globointernacional/" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Globo International&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/a&gt; I watch just to keep in touch with Brazil, and of course &lt;a href="http://www.sho.com/queer/" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Queer as Folk&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/a&gt; (which will not be back until January), that all sums up to at least 8 hours a week of potato couching.&lt;br&gt;
&lt;p class=main&gt;• Geralmente eu ouço televisão mais do que assisto, porquê eu não tolero perder tempo em frente à uma telinha. Eu também me conheço muito bem, e sei que quando eu gosto, me apego facilmente a qualquer porcaria televisiva que só está no ar para vender espaço publicitário. Mas há alguns shows aqui nos EUA que eu não resisto. E fiquei feliz em saber que eles voltaram das férias de verão esta semana, a maioria hoje (quinta). Na ordem da minha preferência: Will &amp; Grace, Just Shoot Me, Friends. Na segunda, Ellen Degeneres voltou ao ar fazendo o que ela faz de melhor: comédia, e não política. O show foi muito bom, quase tão bom quanto o antigo show Ellen. Espero que vingue, e será o único show novo que eu quero ver nesta temporada, somente porquê acredito que Ellen merece recuperar o que perdeu devido à sua grande bravura em fazer algo de bom no show anterior (e que lhe custou o próprio show). Outro show que eu gosto é o Frasier, mas infelizmente é transmitido em uma noite em que trabalho até as 11 da noite. Eu nunca me lembro de preparar o video para gravar. Estes meus cinco shows preferidos são, juntos, mais tempo que eu gostaria de passar na frente da telinha. (30 minutos cada x 5 = 2 horas e meia). Além disso, vejo meus DVD's religiosamente, assisto à estupidez da Globo Internacional só pra manter contato com a terrinha natal (a Globo agora monopoliza o mercado internacional, gente!), e é claro assisto ao Queer as Folk (que só volta ao ar em Janeiro de 2002). Tudo isso soma-se em pelo menos 8 horas de TV por semana. Plim-plim. Ah, use os links do texto em inglês, tô com preguiça.&lt;br&gt;

&lt;br&gt;
&lt;p class=main&gt;• As I promised on my last posting, here's a few &lt;a href="http://www.jeantoday.com/blogs/pages/turkey.html" target="_self"&gt;shots of the turkeys&lt;/a&gt; chasing me this Tuesday morning. Sorry for the lacking of postings yesterday, I got home from work so exausted that I went straight to bed, and slept thoroughout the night like a rock.&lt;br&gt;
&lt;p class=main&gt;• Como prometido no posting anterior, veja aqui algumas fotos dos &lt;a href="http://www.jeantoday.com/blogs/pages/turkey.html" target="_self"&gt;perus silvestres&lt;/a&gt; que correram atrás de mim terça de manhã. Aos meus leitores assíduos, perdoe-me a ausência de ontem. Cheguei em casa do trabalho tão cansado que fui direto pra cama, dormi como uma pedra por 12 horas seguidinhas -- conseqüência direta do stress que foi aliviado ontem, quando coisas importantíssimas foram decidas no trabalho, e que têm influência direta na minha vida. Viva! Mais detalhes mais tarde.&lt;br&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3124367-5949853?l=meuchapa.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3124367/posts/default/5949853'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3124367/posts/default/5949853'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://meuchapa.blogspot.com/2001_09_23_archive.html#5949853' title=''/><author><name>jeancharles</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/04787116319954840123</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3124367.post-5903866</id><published>2001-09-25T10:10:00.000-04:00</published><updated>2001-09-25T12:54:30.000-04:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;p class=main2&gt;&lt;b&gt;Wild Wild Turkeys&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
&lt;p class=main&gt;• This morning when I open my front door to go to work, what is there waiting for me? A cute couple of &lt;b&gt;wild turkeys&lt;/b&gt;. Well, not so cute. They followed me to the car, making their gloo-gloo-gloo &lt;a href="http://members.tripod.com/~geff1/tcalls.htm" target="_blank"&gt;sound&lt;/a&gt;. The head of their household (male or female?) was all puffed up like a peacock, which alarmed me. When I finally made it to my car, they stalled me!! They just set there, looking at me through the car window. Every time I hit the honker, they went gobble gobble on me. It was the funniest way to start the day, I drove to work laughing my ass off. &lt;a href="http://members.tripod.com/~geff1/turkey.htm" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;img src="http://www.jeantoday.com/blogs/Art4Blog/turkey.jpg" width=115 height=144 alt="E nem é dia de Thanksgiving!" border="2" align="right"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;This kind of thing only happens to me! Oh, when I saw the turkeys at my door, I run back home and got my cam, I will try to capture some shots later and post them here.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;For now, the artwork illustrating this posting has a link to a web page I found that incentives turkey hunting. Although I don't like that idea, the site has interesting info on the birds.&lt;br&gt;
&lt;p class=main&gt;• Hoje de manhã quando abri a porta da casa para ir trabalhar, adivinha quem estava me esperando do lado de fora? Um casal de &lt;b&gt;perus selvagens&lt;/b&gt;. Eles bem que eram bonitinhos, até que começaram a me seguir, &lt;a href="http://www.saudeanimal.com.br/animais_aurelio.htm" target="_blank"&gt;cantarolando&lt;/a&gt; a canção do glu-glu que só eles sabem cantar. O chefe da casa (ou seria a chefe?) estava todo estufado como um pavão, e isso me deixou alarmado. Quando finalmente consegui chegar no meu carro, eles me paralizaram! Os perus se assentaram do lado de fora e ficaram me olhando pela janela do carro. Toda vez que eu buzinava, eles &lt;i&gt;glugluavam&lt;/i&gt;. Foi a coisa mais engraçada que podia me acontecer para começar o dia bem, e dirigi todo o caminho do trabalho morrendo de rir. Esse tipo de coisa só acontece comigo. Aliás, sempre estou preparado para situações assim, e quando vi os perus na porta da minha casa, eu corri e peguei minha filmadora. Mais tarde vou tentar capturar os melhores momentos e postar aqui.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Achei uma página na web com informações sobre o peru, com fotos e tudo! Não fique animadinho, ou animadinha, ainda tô falando da &lt;b&gt;ave&lt;/b&gt;. O link já tá aí em cima. Se sabes Inglês, clique na foto para ir na página sobre caça ao pobre do bicho. Não, não tô incentivando essa forma cruel de esportes, apenas descobri fatos interessantes sobre o &lt;i&gt;pablo&lt;/i&gt; que eu nunca havia lido antes.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;br&gt;

&lt;br&gt;
&lt;p class=main&gt;• I watched, live, &lt;a href="http://www.whitehouse.gov/news/releases/2001/09/20010920-8.html" target=blank&gt;President Bush's address to the nation&lt;/a&gt;. I finally can say that I like Bush -- no pun intended -- or at least I like the president I saw last Thursday night. He was assertive, yet emotional. He wasn't the Texan-hick boy he seems to be. Apparently they hired better professionals to take care of his public appearance. Good for you, Bush.
&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
• I forgot to watch the &lt;a href="http://www.tributetoheroes.org/" target=blank&gt;Telethon&lt;/a&gt; Friday, and went to the movies instead. Too bad, the movie was a horror, and doesn't deserve any mention in this Blog. I rushed home and saw the very end of the Telethon.
&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
• &lt;a href="http://www.mariahcarey.org/" target=blank&gt;Mariah Carey&lt;/a&gt; was the first one I saw -- didn't like it at all. Something is up with her voice (read: too much wind, air, breathe in it). The style is a no-no, but I hope this criticism doesn't put her back in emotional distress.
&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
• But later on, Diva &lt;a href="http://www.celineonline.com/" target=blank&gt;Celine&lt;/a&gt; took me away with her rendition of &lt;i&gt;&lt;a href="http://ingeb.org/songs/godbless.html" target=blank&gt;God Bless America&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/i&gt;. It was awsome, the choir and all. I will buy it if they sell it, as long as they don't play it to death like they do all the time.
&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
&lt;a href="http://www.jeantoday.com/blogs/pages/whoopiLV.html" target="_self"&gt;&lt;img src="http://www.jeantoday.com/blogs/Art4Blog/WhoopiJean132x91px.jpg" width=132 height=91 alt="Whoopi and Jean" border="2" align="left"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;
• I have to admit I'm a star struck (sort of), so I wanted badly to kill two birds with the same stone, and donate some to the &lt;i&gt;Heroes Fund&lt;/i&gt; and talk to some Hollywood primma donna as well. Anyone, but of course maybe &lt;a href="http://www.movieactors.com/winm/m75.htm" target="_blank"&gt;Jack&lt;/a&gt; or &lt;a href="http://www.movieactors.com/winsw/sw90.htm" target="_blank"&gt;Whoopi&lt;/a&gt; or &lt;a href="http://www.movieactors.com/90stars/julia.htm" target="_blank"&gt;Julia&lt;/a&gt; or &lt;a href="http://www.movieactors.com/winm/m93.htm" target="_blank"&gt;Tom&lt;/a&gt; or whomever. I just wanted to donate some bucks. But all I got was a busy line. And I was tired, so I went to bed. I will send my donation by mail, that's what is more important anyways.
&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
• Last night I finally saw &lt;a href="http://www.family-man.com/" target=blank&gt;The Family Man&lt;/a&gt;. It wasn't as bad as I thought it was going to be. It kept me entertained, and I guess that's what a movie is meant to be anyway.

&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
&lt;p class=main&gt;For those wondering why the links to my archives are not working, here's the answer: I can't get them to work. All my other blogs work fine, some using the same template as this one, yet I keep getting and FTP error message from Blogger, saying they can't archive this blog. That explains why this blog is showing all my postings, and why the links to the archive pages don't work. If you know how to fix this, please drop me a note on the "Your thoughts" link.
&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
&lt;p class=main&gt;Se você já notou que os links de arquivo do meu blog não funcionam, saiba que eu também já notei. Eles simplesmente não estão funcionando porque tem algum bug que não me permite fazê-los funcionar. Todos os meus outros blogs estão funcionando sem problemas, inclusive alguns usam o mesmo template deste blog. Mas toda vez que eu tento publicar meus arquivos, eu recebo uma mensagem de erro do Blogger, dizendo que os meus postings não podem ser arquivados. Isso explica o motivos do meu blog mostrar todas as mensagens na página principal, além do problema com os links de arquivo que vão te levar a lugar nenhum.

&lt;p class=main&gt;Oi gente. Recebi alguns recadinhos de amigos blogueiros perguntando pelo meu desaparecimento. Antes de tudo, estou bem, muito bem. obrigado mesmo pelo &lt;i&gt;concern&lt;/i&gt;. Mas estive meio estressado no trabalho recentemente, daí a falta de criatividade para blogar.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
Meu amigo Samuel mandou eu parar de mexer no template e botar a cuca pra blogar (&lt;i&gt;leia seu comentário no post anterior&lt;/i&gt;), até me lembrou que o visual de um blog não é o mais importante, e sim o conteúdo. Eu sei, eu sei, Samuel. Mas às vezes, com o stress do trabalho, se eu blogar esse espaço vai virar "Lamentações de Jeremias Part 2", e eu não tô a fim de deprê. Desvio meu stress em brincar com o HTML, que vira -- é claro! -- outra forma de stress, mas com lucro no final.&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;Mas, enfim, tudo indica que as coisas vão melhorar no trabalho. Depois que tudo se resolver, provavelmente nos próximos oito dias, eu explico. No momento prefiro presenciar os acontecimentos para depois relatá-los. Suspense, suspense, suspense...
&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
Além do mais, estou blogando no meu blog privado, pois é, tenho um desses também. Mas está trancado a sete chaves, sorry.&lt;br&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3124367-5844954?l=meuchapa.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3124367/posts/default/5844954'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3124367/posts/default/5844954'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://meuchapa.blogspot.com/2001_09_16_archive.html#5844954' title=''/><author><name>jeancharles</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/04787116319954840123</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3124367.post-5796401</id><published>2001-09-20T00:05:00.000-04:00</published><updated>2001-09-20T00:05:05.156-04:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>What da?&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3124367-5796401?l=meuchapa.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3124367/posts/default/5796401'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3124367/posts/default/5796401'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://meuchapa.blogspot.com/2001_09_16_archive.html#5796401' title=''/><author><name>jeancharles</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/04787116319954840123</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3124367.post-5773772</id><published>2001-09-18T23:14:00.000-04:00</published><updated>2001-09-18T23:49:36.000-04:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;p class="main2"&gt;&lt;b&gt;New look&lt;/b&gt;
&lt;p class="main"&gt;Hope you guys like the new look of my home. It was made for 800x600 resolution, which seems to be the trend among the visitors. There's other stuff I plan to change (such as changing the background of some graphics to better fit the new colors etc, but I figure that can wait for now.)
Please let me know if it is working on your machine!

&lt;font face="Times, Palatino" size="3" color="yellow"&gt;ANTIAMERICANISMO FORA DE HORA&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br&gt;
&lt;p class="main3"&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;b&gt;Fernando Rodrigues&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;&lt;font color="000098"&gt;
NOVA YORK - O antiamericanismo que ainda viceja entre alguns no Brasil, e se julgou vingado em certa medida pelos ataques aos EUA na semana passada, tem uma origem: complexo de inferioridade e saudades da senzala, como diria Paulo Francis.&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
Ontem de tarde, um dia de sol e de céu azul em Nova York, descendo pela 5ª Avenida era possível ver a fumaça subindo dos escombros do World Trade Center, no sul da cidade. Ao longo das ruas, milhares de pessoas usando roupas com as cores da bandeira norte-americana.&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
Ao me aproximar do local da tragédia, uma multidão de pessoas vindas de todas as partes do país, com suas bandeiras e doações. Trazem de tudo. Roupas, alimentos, água. O prefeito de Nova York pediu que parassem de aparecer. Já há ajuda demais.&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
Quantas vezes esse tipo de solidariedade ocorreu no Brasil? Exceto em épocas de Copa do Mundo de futebol, não conheço similar. Para citar Roberto Campos, há algo errado em um povo cuja maior manifestação de organização espontânea é em torno do Carnaval.
Como bem apontou ontem Clóvis Rossi, os EUA são um país com um projeto bem definido, goste-se ou não dele. Por essa razão, os cidadãos sabem o que têm para defender. Bem diferente do Brasil.&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
Não ignoro a quase imbecilidade de alguns atos patrióticos ingênuos. Há, em Nova York, entre os centros de ajuda, um para cachorros perdidos. E, é claro, dezenas de toneladas de doações de comida para cachorro.&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
Também é incrível que os EUA tenham um presidente com ares de parvo como George W. Bush.&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
Ainda assim, é inegável a dianteira dos EUA sobre o Brasil em termos de organização e cidadania.&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
É evidente que nada justifique o alinhamento brasileiro automático a alguma retaliação impensada do governo norte-americano. Mas já passou a hora do antiamericanismo primário, como se a Guerra do Vietnã ainda não houvesse acabado.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;br&gt;
&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;/table&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;/table&gt;
&lt;p class="main"&gt;Valeu, Fernando, pelo texto sensato. Mas coitadinho dos cachorros, principalmente os cachorros que estão trabalhando em "ground zero", à procura de corpos e sobreviventes. Eles precisam ser alimentados. Aqui nos EUA, cachorro também é ser humano.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3124367-5741832?l=meuchapa.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3124367/posts/default/5741832'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3124367/posts/default/5741832'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://meuchapa.blogspot.com/2001_09_16_archive.html#5741832' title=''/><author><name>jeancharles</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/04787116319954840123</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3124367.post-5715603</id><published>2001-09-16T03:26:00.000-04:00</published><updated>2001-09-17T16:19:50.000-04:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;p class="main"&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.jeantoday.com/blogs/images/DoveNYC.jpg" target="_blank" title="Peace in the World"&gt;&lt;img src="http://www.jeantoday.com/blogs/images/DoveNYC.jpg" width="150" height="225" border="2" align="left"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;p class="main2"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Três da manhã, fazer o quê?&lt;/b&gt;
&lt;p class="main"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Português:&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/i&gt; São três da manhã e eu tava rolando na cama. Lembrei de uma foto legal que tirei na Disney, quando uma gaivota voou ao meu encontro. Depois lembrei de outra foto que tirei quando voltava da Estátua da Liberdade, e admirava a vista linda de Nova Iorque. As duas coisas se juntaram na minha cabeça, eu tive que sair da cama e juntar as duas imagens, na esperança de uma mensagem de paz.
&lt;p class="main"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;English:&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/i&gt; It's 3 in the morning, and I was rolling in bed. I thought of a picture I took at Disneyworld, when a seagull flew towards me. Then I remembered another photo I took when I was at the ferry coming back from the Statue of Liberty, and admired the beautiful New York skyline. The two ideas became one in my head, and I had to get out of bed to digitally connect the two images, hoping to share a message of peace.&lt;/font&gt;

&lt;p class="main"&gt;I haven't had a DSL connection since Tuesday night, and I have to use my old dial-up 56K modem in order to get online. To make things worse, the fastest connection I got was 26400, and most of the times it's even slower than that. Not to mention I have to dial 5, 6 times to get a connection. I think I will take a break from my computer this weekend. Who am I kidding?
&lt;p class="main"&gt;&lt;font color="#8b4513"&gt;A minha conexão foi pro espaço, minha tão querida DSL não funciona mais. Tive que voltar a usar meu velho modem de 56k, mas o mais rápido que consigo entrar na net até agora foi 26400 bps. Na maioria das vezes até mais devagar, quase parando. Tenho que tentar 5, 6 vezes pra conseguir linha. Acho que vou tirar férias do computador neste fim de semana. Até parece.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3124367-5706839?l=meuchapa.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3124367/posts/default/5706839'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3124367/posts/default/5706839'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://meuchapa.blogspot.com/2001_09_09_archive.html#5706839' title=''/><author><name>jeancharles</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/04787116319954840123</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3124367.post-5686957</id><published>2001-09-14T13:04:00.000-04:00</published><updated>2001-09-15T21:39:13.000-04:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;p class="main2"&gt;&lt;b&gt;On Freedom, Patriotism and Democracy&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br&gt;

I reflected on his opinion all night long, and I have decided that today I &lt;b&gt;am &lt;/b&gt;wearing blue jeans, a white shirt and American colors ribbons. Even though I agree with most of Alverson's thoughts, and I'm angry to think that this tragedy probably wouldn't have happened if the Republican Party (a.k.a. "Bush") had stayed away from the White House (the presidential election was a joke, but that's another story), I can't think that the American &lt;b&gt;people &lt;/b&gt;can be blamed for this tragedy. I have seen way too many Brazilian comments (on the web, blogs and newspapers), and all of them seem to hold the U.S. indirectly responsible for this tragedy due to their international politics.
&lt;p class="main"&gt;However, when a tragedy of this atrociousness strikes, there's a natural call for the &lt;b&gt;people &lt;/b&gt;to get together, as &lt;b&gt;a nation&lt;/b&gt;, with a rigid political statement. I say an e-mail asking everybody to wear the American Colors is a healthy idea that will help many people cope with their grief at this moment. It's also a peaceful way to show we're proud of being a people, no matter the race or religion -- and much better than attacking your neighbor just because he looks like a terrorist, like some news sources are reporting. Mayor Giuliani has asked people not to take this out on the immigrants who live in New York, but unfortunately some people are so angry that they react the wrong way, attacking innocent people just because they wear a turban. Those are isolated incidents and do not represent the majority of the population. Idiots exist everywhere in the world.
&lt;p class="main"&gt;I am an immigrant living in the United States since 1994. I am not &lt;b&gt;yet &lt;/b&gt;a citizen of the United States, but I can’t wait to become one. I was born Brazilian, but I chose the U.S. as the country I want to live in. I love Brazil as a culture and geographic paradise and I love all my friends and relatives that still live in Brazil, but I don't plan to go back there for good. Here in New York I know many people from many different countries of the world who have chosen to move here, not because of a better economy, but because here you can be who you are and believe in what you believe without the fear of persecution by people of your own nationality. And that is guaranteed by the American &lt;b&gt;government&lt;/b&gt;, not by your American neighbor. I’m assuming that if the person who attacked the Arabic immigrants gets arrested, he or she &lt;b&gt;will &lt;/b&gt;be going to jail for doing so. That’s the kind of safety that we have here in America.
&lt;p class="main"&gt;I heard Ana Maria Braga saying on Brazilian TV, in her &lt;i&gt;I-Want-To-Be-Martha-Stewart&lt;/i&gt; show, "Thank God we're Brazilians and we're here, not there". The show's agenda had been put aside due to the tragedy in the U.S., but instead of a real journalist they allowed Braga to cover it from her kitchen. I would like to ask Braga, “Did you forget about the horror story on the kidnapping of Silvio Santos’ daughter just a few days ago in São Paulo? Do you have a clue of how many people get killed everyday in Rio de Janeiro because of violence and poverty, which is a consequence of a corrupt Brazilian government?”
&lt;p class="main"&gt;Braga is better off when she teaches people how to cook parrot with oranges, but her statement brought back lots of bad memories for me. So I started ruminating on the current situation in Brazil. When will the Brazilian politicians realize that they must stop embezzling the people's money and start giving it back to their own people, in the form of &lt;b&gt;good schools &lt;/b&gt;and &lt;b&gt;good salaries &lt;/b&gt;to the adults, so their children can attend those schools and eventually grow out of poverty and therefore, help reduce violence?
&lt;p class="main"&gt;I was scared every day of my life when I lived in Rio. Every day I had to watch who was around me, I had to think twice before talking to a stranger, I was robbed and assaulted so many times, not to mention all the discrimination I suffered for being gay. I had three different bus routes, so I could alternate them in order to try to reduce my chances of being robbed. Day and night, I was living like a rabbit, constantly looking around to see if a bird of prey was up to attack me. I shared an apartment with 3 roommates and we were constantly stressed because of the bullets ricocheting outside the building, almost every night. Our living room window had a big perforation in it. This was more than seven years ago and still hasn’t changed. Many will call me a coward for moving out of the country for the above reasons. I don’t care, I feel safe here. I don’t make the political type, the martyr willing to die for a cause. Not me, sorry. All I can do is pray: “God Bless Brazil”.
&lt;p class="main"&gt;In the other hand, I feel very safe in the U.S. -- actually, I feel safer now than ever before. The day of the tragedy in the World Trade Center was the first time I was frightened in almost eight years. But at least I wasn’t afraid of my own kind. The terror was brought from the outside.
&lt;p class="main"&gt;Hatred was what led those lunatics into killing themselves for a motive we don't even know yet, perhaps the whole thing was based entirely in religious beliefs. That is fanaticism. Those people are no different than Tim McVeigh, an American citizen, who killed so many innocent people in Oklahoma. There's no way the World will ever be able to prevent a lunatic from doing lunatic things, because the ideas a lunatic will come up with are, to a certain degree, genius-like. Regrettably they are so passionate about it that they are willing to kill themselves to get their ideas into practice.
&lt;p class="main"&gt;When it's about survival, the feeling of patriotism escalates. I’m a Brazilian guy who would love to become an American citizen. I am wearing the colors of America today, and I’m proud of it. If Brazil, as a &lt;b&gt;government&lt;/b&gt;, wants me to be proud of them, they can also. But first they have to, yet not literally, “blow” the political corruption from the towers of Brazil.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3124367-5686957?l=meuchapa.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3124367/posts/default/5686957'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3124367/posts/default/5686957'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://meuchapa.blogspot.com/2001_09_09_archive.html#5686957' title=''/><author><name>jeancharles</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/04787116319954840123</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3124367.post-5665000</id><published>2001-09-13T13:03:00.000-04:00</published><updated>2001-09-13T15:20:11.000-04:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;p class="main2"&gt;&lt;b&gt;September 14, Friday, is Flag Colors Day&lt;/b&gt;

Then, at a flash of a second, I realized that I can't be a spectator any longer. It's time to be a participator. People need help, money, food, clothes.

&lt;p class="main"&gt;&lt;b&gt;10:00 a.m.:&lt;/b&gt;I lost my internet connection last night right after my last posting. I finally got a connection at work through a different provider, and the first thing I read is that the Nostradamus prophecy could be a hoax. It is a shame that people don't know when it's time to stop joking around. I came to my Blogger to remove the comments below about the prophecy, but I have decided to keep it here for my own memory. This will serve as a personal lesson to me, and I learned not to trust the internet when it's time for serious issues. That's a shame, and I resent the person who started the hoax. He or she deserves to be banned from to net. By the way, I'm glad that i used the terms "BS" on my interpretation of such phony predictments.

&lt;p class="main"&gt;&lt;b&gt;8:43 p.m.:&lt;/b&gt;I have two words on Bush's speech on national television, at this time: "That's it?" O discurso do president Bush em cadeia nacional foi fraco, fraquíssimo. Falou pouco e nem falou muito.

&lt;p class="main"&gt;&lt;b&gt;8:21 p.m.:&lt;/b&gt; I've seen the second airplane hit the World Trade Center from just about every angle there is. Globonews even showed a clip/montage with different angles of the same horror scene. I don't need to see it anymore, and I'll bet many think that. Enough is enough, it's time to concentrate on the survivors and on the World Peace. -- Chega de mostrar a imagem do avião atingindo a segunda torre. O Jornal Nacional até mostrou um clipe com vários ângulos da mesma cena de horror. Tá na hora de começar a falar de Paz Mundial e de ajuda aos sobreviventes.

&lt;p class="main"&gt;&lt;b&gt;7:15 p.m.:&lt;/b&gt; This Nostradamus' prophecy was written in 1654, and it is now spread all over the internet, in so many places it's pointless to link them:
&lt;div class="quote"&gt;&lt;p class="quote"&gt;&lt;span class="quote"&gt;"In the City of God there will be a great thunder, Two brothers torn apart by Chaos, while the fortress endures, the great leader will succumb. The third big war will begin when the big city is burning". (-- Nostradamus, 1654). &lt;/div&gt;&lt;/class&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
&lt;p class="main"&gt;I usually don't interpret prophecy, but I feel the need  to BS on this one: 1) The &lt;b&gt;God&lt;/b&gt; of the Yuppies is Money, therefore Manhattan is the City of Money/God. 2) After the great thunder (the airplanes), the two brothers (the twin towers) were torn apart. The fortress (the USA) endures, but the great leader (Bush?) will succumb. Let's all pray that Nostradamus is wrong on the last line, and that WW3 will &lt;b&gt;not&lt;/b&gt; happen.

&lt;p class="main"&gt;&lt;b&gt;6:15 p.m.:&lt;/b&gt; O Prefeito de New York, mayor Giuliani, terminou de pedir à população de Nova Iorque que fique em casa amanhã, "como se fosse uma tempestade de neve", disse Giuliani. Ele também implorou à população americana que não desconte suas frustrações nos imigrantes que vivem em Nova Iorque.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3124367-5623958?l=meuchapa.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3124367/posts/default/5623958'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3124367/posts/default/5623958'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://meuchapa.blogspot.com/2001_09_09_archive.html#5623958' title=''/><author><name>jeancharles</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/04787116319954840123</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3124367.post-5622973</id><published>2001-09-11T17:34:00.000-04:00</published><updated>2001-09-11T17:45:47.000-04:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;p class="main2"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Kendra didn't make it&lt;/b&gt;
&lt;p class="main"&gt;My friend Ivy was worried about her friend Kendra all day. I met Kendra once, at Ivy's birthday surprise party. She made quite an impression on me, because she was funny, loud, and witty. We had a great time at Ivy's party, thanks in part to Kendra.
Kendra's got a job at the World Trade Center, and started working there yesterday. Today it was supposed to be Kendra's second day at work. Before Kendra left yesterday, her boss told her that she didn't have to arrive at 9 am today. But Kendra wanted to impress, so she insisted in be at work at 9. But her boss told her to be there at 9:30. As she left the subway this morning, Kendra saw the second plane hit the building and a multitute of people running, desperately to save their lives. Kendra didn't make it to work. Thank God.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3124367-5622973?l=meuchapa.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3124367/posts/default/5622973'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3124367/posts/default/5622973'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://meuchapa.blogspot.com/2001_09_09_archive.html#5622973' title=''/><author><name>jeancharles</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/04787116319954840123</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author></entry></feed>
