Bogdan`s venting place

Boy, every time I get to order a thing or two via Internet I get stressed. Not because of the seller, but about the carrier that is to deliver the goods.  I cannot simply understand the reasoning for companies that rely their business on efficiency to be so  … inefficient.

Well, year 2008 is gone … as everybody couldn’t wait for the New 2009 to come. No offence 2008, but you sucked for most of us: market crush, corrupt judges in Poland decided to screw me and my children (will post the names with pictures in due time), many of people (my friends included) lost their jobs, Americans elected a know socialist who is probably going to ruin this country, and some of my friends got very sick and are fighting for their lives.

We all need to hope, that things are going to get better in 2009. Without hope, one could get really depressed.

Well,
Today is Christmas Eve. The world is full of hatred, duplicitous people, hunger and injustice. The same world however, is also full of good people, hope and kindness. It seems, that during Christmas time one can find mostly decent people, who become more gentle, more understanding, and most of all – much kinder.
Christmas spirit is evident in California, where so many cultures meet, and a lot of weird things tend to happen. Christmas however is special. I spend 2 hours walking around my neighbourhood taking pictures of beautiful Christmas lights and ornaments. For few moments I forgot how year 2008 was miserable for me and others. I met many parents walking with their children, taking pictures, smiling and wishing each other Merry Christmas. I only wish, that during this period people think less about shopping, and reflect more on their loved once.
So, Merry Christmas everybody!
