Sunday 09– Today I really had food for my thought. I kept wondering  if I don’t expect too much from people. I try to be a cool guy, really. I respect and expect to be respected. I feel pleasure in being polite and receive in return grateful smiles. That’s me. I’m saying this because it relates to what I say in the video. I’m really glad you’re here reading it. Thank you     Domingo 09 -  Hoje tive o bastante para uma reflexão. Fiquei pensando se não espero demais das pessoas. Eu tento ser um cara legal, de verdade. Eu respeito e espero ser respeitado. Sinto prazer em ser educado e receber em trocar sorrisos de gratidão. Esse sou eu. Digo isso porque tem relação ao que eu digo no vídeo. Estou muito feliz que vocês estão aqui lendo isso. Muito obrigado.

They invited me to see the place. The interesting thing about the bar is that they have a game of questions and answers. Each table forms a team. We write the answers in a paper and turn them in to the hostess. I felt a dumb, I missed almost everything but c’mon, gimme a break. The majority of the questions were about American culture: What  quarterback  was more efficient in 2009 season? Which American actress died in a car accident in the 80’s?   Well…the only ones I got were: Who said “I think, therefore I am”?, Which villain says “Have you ever danced with the devil in the pale moonlight? And  the 5 sports that make the pentathlon. 3 out of 20….good enough.         Segunda 10 -  Hoje ao passear em Manhattan fui abordado por duas garotas que trabalhavam num bar chamado Haven. Me convidaram pra conhecer o bendito e lá fui eu. O interessante do bar é que eles têm um jogo de perguntas e respostas. Cada mesa é um time. Escrevemos as respostas num papel e entregamos para o hostess. Me senti um ignorante, acertei quase naaaada mas me dêem um desconto né. A maioria das perguntas eram sobre cultura americana: Qual  quarterback foi mais eficiente na temporada 2009? Que atriz americana morreu num acidente de carro nos anos 80?  Bom...as únicas que acertei foram: Quem disse “Penso, logo existo?”, Que vilão diz “você já dançou com o diabo sob a luz do luar? E os 5 esportes que compõem o pentatlon.  3 em 20...bão dimai sô!  *** *** *** *** *** *** *** *** *** *** *** *** ***<!--[if gte mso 9]>     Normal   0         false   false   false                             MicrosoftInternetExplorer4   <![endif]--><!--[if gte mso 9]>     <![endif]--> <!--  /* Style Definitions */  p.MsoNormal, li.MsoNormal, div.MsoNormal 	{mso-style-parent:""; 	margin:0in; 	margin-bottom:.0001pt; 	mso-pagination:widow-orphan; 	font-size:12.0pt; 	font-family:"Times New Roman"; 	mso-fareast-font-family:"Times New Roman";} @page Section1 	{size:8.5in 11.0in; 	margin:1.0in 1.25in 1.0in 1.25in; 	mso-header-margin:.5in; 	mso-footer-margin:.5in; 	mso-paper-source:0;} div.Section1 	{page:Section1;} --> <!--[if gte mso 10]>   /* Style Definitions */  table.MsoNormalTable 	{mso-style-name:"Table Normal"; 	mso-tstyle-rowband-size:0; 	mso-tstyle-colband-size:0; 	mso-style-noshow:yes; 	mso-style-parent:""; 	mso-padding-alt:0in 5.4pt 0in 5.4pt; 	mso-para-margin:0in; 	mso-para-margin-bottom:.0001pt; 	mso-pagination:widow-orphan; 	font-size:10.0pt; 	font-family:"Times New Roman"; 	mso-ansi-language:#0400; 	mso-fareast-language:#0400; 	mso-bidi-language:#0400;}  <![endif]-->  Tuesday 11 – Today some guys were dancing on the subway.
