Being a nerd and reality
Two stories that talk about the life of the Nerd.
Mania sign (million) mailing lists (or currently feeds)
That eagerness to expand its domain knowledge to intellectual, nerdy looking sign all mailing lists (or feeds) to interest; list is about Google, it's famous list of developers (eg Joe on Software, Python or Guido), signs on ninja techniques and OO design patterns, lists of Web 2.0 with JavaScript, is list all what is possible, the goal with this is learning by symbiosis with good (if possible) the convenience of a simple dynamic reading. In the end that is lit nerd decides to kick up high all the lists and their resolve to do things yourself, not lose more time with reading or managed lists.
Mania to believe that life follows a rational and logical flow

The result is sheer and utter frustration, the line is installed TELECOM whenever you see fit or to ensure that , nerd and always have to expect it. The interesting thing is that these situations require the nerd love deadlines set by companies, but when it is pressed to get anything within ...

not have such a "Brazilian way".
Our nation is similar, except that we are immersed in fascism to show Brazil to Brazil as being uniformly or Rio Bahia. The

but at the same time close to what we saw with Lula, who ran and lost elections to be elected and re-democratically elected president of Brazil. That is a fact to give credit to the democratic system and our democracy, often fragile. And above all, give credit to the Americans after that fiasco that was the democratic election of Bush, they showed all the strength of its political system, now we can only applaud and respect them for that. Martin Luther King Jr. to Barack Obama, life can be full of pleasant surprises. The full text
