When Trading Platinum To Soul Silver

A Single 42-rpm


This weekend, one of my best friends came to Madriz with his girlfriend: Hotel Design area such Chueca, a musical in the Gran Via, dinner for two at Teatriz ( Le Marquis was full), Drinking in Ramses ... I joined the coffee in the restaurant and gin & tonic of Hendrick 's price of Iranian caviar later. All very fashion and well.

But what happened later was a funny story: At around two-something my friend, who had barely slept in the last few nights, I wanted to return to the hotel. She, who usually go to a thousand and a half when it comes out, wanted to take another drink. It generated some "bad vibes " between them at that time. At the end brought them to the hotel in miserable conditions. I say unfortunate because I have a Audi TT and clear, the rear seat is great to leave the jacket or jersey that I wear on the shoulders ... but not for passengers, although this was only a trip to Puerta de Alcalá to San Bernardo. By the way, I would taken another, but it was I who had to decide, after all they were romantic weekend.

This again leads me to the same conclusion as usual. One conclusion to my 42-odd years (also a long beak) every time I have more clear: I'm single with no girlfriend, and every time gives me more lazy to have it. That live to justify to someone, that you keep an eye, that can not leave the hotel when you get the real winner (which is not a monarchy wins, but yours), that's when you have two couples (who is logical, otherwise), every time I get more per bag.

My last relationship more or less stable ended nearly two years ago. Previously I had had enough. Since then, only "relationships" of one night, two or three, tops. With a mentality like mine, it is not surprising, moreover, that women are getting tired of my passes in a season and see that nothing happens. I mean that nothing happens that I commit too. At first, a lot of travel, lots of dinner, lots of sex and lots of everything. But a few months (at best), I just overwhelming, growing tired, tired ... and bored. I can not find this cool intimate, and not take a second cup of coffee. And I just finished the story, or letting her finish it.

At my age, I'm increasingly less the work of putting up with anyone. Or to pretend that someone hold me. I have spent many years living alone, and I like it. I have my house as I want, and if I open the shower gel, nobody tells me anything (by the way: do not ever leave it open, I'm a jewel). I have my house does not mean that looks like a cave, on the contrary, my house is perfectly clean and tidy, changing sheets and duvet every week, wash the dishes and ventilate the house every morning. Nothing special, otherwise. But the truth is that yes, I used to not ask placet anyone to do what I want. I'm traveling (or rather, I was unemployed before the travel curb two years ago ...), but I'm coming to ski, I go, I go, I go on without explanation or anyone ... and what is better, but nobody asks for it. And even my mother (who banned me exhaustively long to submit to one more girl) insists that I have a girlfriend and got married. Or not get married, but at least has a girlfriend.

My friend, who has been in Madrid this weekend , took a long time without a stable relationship, and lived much quieter. Eye, I say to live better, more peaceful living say. I know that is very crush on his girl, and she. But calmer lived until a year ago, much less stressed that Now, a sinvivir . If you are compensated (I think it does), then congratulations, maybe we will be a year of a wedding these Donosti . That same friend dropped a phrase anthology years ago his then girlfriend to her question about what they would do in the Easter holidays, he replied "You do not know . I'm going skiing with Medinasidonia . " Awesome.

note about me: My two brothers are happily married with two each churumbeles years. Most of my friends too. And in general, they are all happily ever after ... but I do not quite see clearly that it is for me.

acknowledge that I can sometimes miss having someone. But are the least of them. I recognize that when a few weeks ago that the box of condoms that are on the table does not move except when I clean the dust (no second), I think it would be nice to have a partner. And I'm not saying just dusting (now second), but because it is true that when one thinks of a couple, will come to mind fond memories with ex-girlfriends. When you take a while thinking about it, then displayed the fights, the neuroses, problems, all the bad, the " is that you do not commit " ... and I say to myself, I'm super lonely.

I believe that those who walk through these years and we never have committed a certain amount of gin & tonic permanent blood as the vaccine immunizes us from the flu. He said an announcement

cookie years ago when at 42 a still single is because it is ugly or gay . I do not remember a story that said this to announce cookies, in my case neither of the two conditions is met. my ex-girlfriends and ex-rolls is proof of that. Indeed, the ad in question is before the legalization of gay marriage , of \u200b\u200bcourse.

I have a theory: Marriage is an institution that is thousands of years in time, ie when the life expectancy of humans was about 45 years at most. When you get married, that roll of "till death do you part" meant in the best fifteen or twenty years. But now, in Spain with a life expectancy of nearly eighty, it's together for life sixty years can make: Who holds it? Almost no one, so he invented the divorce as life expectancy began to grow.

For finish, I come here today to claim the single figure of , or mine. Do not be a single because it just gives you win real? Do I have an obligation to follow the script? Do I have mortgaged 30 years to buy a closet and live with someone who will not stand at a time (and probably not bear me to me)?

Shaken, not stirred.


Today our champion of freedom and pathological optimist has not proposed any action against the crisis (according to the OECD recession in a couple of months) when he appeared in Congress. The tunnels of the M-30 have been flooded and I have been lucky not to catch this morning jam on the highway out of Toledo, while the input reached the Sector 3, Getafe. Fortunately today released particle accelerator (CERN) has created a black hole that devours the planet Earth, but from here I have not clear whether the southern hemisphere remains (the web Clarín, which came in with some frequency is online , so it seems that there is).

And before all this confluence of nonsense and purposes, I'm going to talk about a subject as important as choosing my favorite James Bond.

river I do not mourn. As many readers know, I have a paid job and not badly paid (not to kill, but not to mourn) since recently. Found in crisis (recession according to the OECD, EU and worldwide global repeat), which has its merits. Therefore I have reason to laugh while many mourn newly unemployed Cry, cry the owners of flats to them each month Euribor rises, cry real estate and construction companies ... I cry almost every least, that I've cried enough over the past two years.

And I do not cry (for now), I will be talking about inconsequential Sir agent created by Ian Fleming. If anyone would stress out because I'm glad. If the majority does not care, because I am also. I will return to be important in future deliveries.

history of James Bond film begins, as any follower of the series knows, the early sixties. Now every time I see one of those old movies, I realize how badly they have aged. The bad guy is always a man bald (Spectra leader ) petting a white Persian cat, and many of the scenes take place in underground caves with little trains that remind me of the Swiss Mountain Mount Donosti Igueldo. Maybe in 1962 in the Cold War space race and in full could impress the spectators, but today it is extremely outdated. Seem an Austin Powers movie with bald and all.

The bald and gives a hit man repeated to the letter, as in submarine movies. "Change container 2" ... " Change the container 2 "repeats a metallic voice." Initiate launch capsule XP56 "..." Initiate launch capsule XP56, repeated again boring assistant. " Collect cat pee " listless affects the bad, very bad bald Spectra honcho ... "Pick cat pee, repeat the faithful acolyte while his voice would suggest a fear that there were about a henchman with his silver helmet, his monkey red, white boots ... and a mop handy to catch the albino cat filth of the head.

Sean Connery is definitely the best actor who has portrayed Bond. But in my opinion this does not becomes the best agent 007 in the series. The Scot Connery had the opportunity to show the piece of actor that is ... but in other movies and at other times. From " The Man Who Would Be King " the third of Indiana Jones, Connery is a great actor at the time of playing Bond was at the beginning of his career, and it shows.

A Connery was replaced briefly the Australian George Lazenby. A single delivery " Secret Service of His Majesty " served to demonstrate that however much we hate the English, 007 must embody an actor born in Belgravia or Mayfair. Or at least it seems. The Australian film behaves like a kangaroo looking trash on the outskirts of Alice Springs, and only the huge pin fashion at the time allow us to distinguish it from a marsupial. Many people know this Bond film series, one of the few in which Spain appears as part of the stage. In particular a Spain Tardofranquismo with donkeys in the streets of a town called next to the village on the outskirts of Madrid where he lived a hired murderer. Because Madrid does not actually go: To see Spain is to wait for the season and see Pierce Brosnan as Bond kills Bilbao a Swiss banker in " The World Is Not Enough " with Sophie Marceau.

Lazenby After the shooting, was "The Holy " Roger Moore. Possibly the hieratic actor of all who have played Bond. However, we must recognize that it has been the most "British" of them all. Largely because so phlegmatic that voice actor responsible for the dubbing in Spain, no less than Constantino Romero. But his original voice was "very 007."

Throughout the seventies and eighties of Roger Moore was a good Bond that we left some of the best films of the series. Some factual mistakes, such as official car incorporating a Lotus Esprit submarine memorable scenes marred "Octopussy" , " Man with the Golden Gun " with a great Christopher Lee in the role murderer's Scaramanga, or " The Spy Who Loved Me ." But Moore rushed leaving the paper too evident in his latest film "View to a Kill " that it was too old to jump from continent to continent seducing KGB spies, and that he was too fat for the role despite putting gut hold your breath to turn blue. Behind him came the unfortunate Timothy Dalton.

Actror theater, Dalton made a promising debut in "The living daylights " ... but there he stood. The following supplies were the worst of the series, with a badass Bond women and tacky paste and mixed with Colombian traffickers coca. Regrettable.

After two sequels insufferable with Timothy Dalton, finally arrived in my humble opinion was the best Bond Series: Pierce Brosnan.

I do not mind admitting that I would have the style and the "touch of class " Brosnan. I do not know the times I've seen some of his films as " The Thomas Crown " just to see him there, with his impeccable suit cut to size in Milan by Gianni Campagna. There was also Rene Russo, but how a gentleman can help noticing the clock impeccable Reverso Jaeger Le-Coultre that Brosnan looked distracted aboard his Bentley? Surely is the only film (with the exception of Casablanca ) in which one looks more on the actor than actress. And you gentlemen did confess also. While Rene Russo.

Brosnan began his career 007 with a major handicap: BMW was the official car in the first three films of his time. If I remember correctly, a Z3 in the first, a Series 7 (?) In the second, and a Z8 in the third. What the Z8 was something else: For the car lovers hurt us to see a car worthy of Bond sectioned along through the hills that hung from helicopters on the outskirts of Istanbul, " The world is not enough and ". Fortunately, his last film recovered the classical and Aston Martin was again the official car of 007: In particular a Vanquish, a beautiful car in front but never conveció behind me, the end of the Zagato is Pininfarina.

But be honest: These costumes bespoke Brioni of cut into the Via Barberini, Rome, those shirts Turnbull & Asser on Jermyn Street stitched, these shoes John Lobb ... spies and seduced me too impressive. And that his partner was none other than Halle Berry ... and that is too big. Although I am left with Miranda Frost, the blonde bad-very bad fencing master.

In "Casino Royale" , Daniel Craigh debut in the role completely disappointed me. Apart from the grace to take the names of characters and situations that apocryphal Bond movie starring David Niven, which embodied a 007 retiree who spent half the movie wearing a silk robe cashmere drawings (if I remember correctly), the most notable is the city of Venice, omnipresent in the Bond saga ... and of course the presentation of the Aston Martin DBS . If the best of the film is the car (not recently), and ignore Brionis, Turnbulls, martini-shaken-not-stirred ( Shaken, Not Stirred ) and other paraphernalia aesthetic Craigh not realize that Bond is a man with a lot of muscle, but not 007. To see this guy I'd rather see one of the three installments of Bourne, although Aston Martin will not keep you tied to the screen until the movie ends.

arrives in a few months " Quantum of Solace," the latest Bond with Daniel Craigh again embody our favorite agent: I'm afraid once again be the best cars (returns DBS), the costumes and girls. Unfortunate, the only series of films that my friends and I (all perfectly straight) you look much more in it than in them, though of course we all comment how good movies are Bond girls and how impressive were the Aston Martin. And repeating this "Bond, James Bond."
