Great movie: "Le concert"

Probably the best movie I've seen in the last three years.



You can watch it a "Gloria" cinema (Bucharest) for just 5 RON (full ticket price).
The cinema is located in Titan neighborhood. Click here for a satellite map.

Great talent

For those who want to understand the past... as the past explains the present.
I recommend "Even Back Then, the Fox Was the Hunter" (can be found at almost any bookshop with recent books)

Romania ...

Today while I was cleaning the snow from the parking place (it is a common parking place - not my own parking place) someone walks close to me and says with a puzzled face: "And then someone else comes and parks his car here" (In Romanian: "Şi vine altul şi o parchează aici").

Is volunteering dead? Should we do things ONLY if their result is directed strictly to us?

What about open-source and the way that revolutionized the way of writing software, but I guess that guy didn't think that far ...

Is this the general mentality in Romania?
