The 1968 May

Today I've heard a new from the french parliament. It was about the linguistic point in france where a "diputat" have said some words in catalan, something like "the catalan in france is in danger and we have to promot it, because to learn this lenguage in the catalan part of France doesn't means french will be in danger". The problem was that the president of the parliament doesn't let him to speak in catalan because he wasn't able to uderstand him (well, that's qute normal, isn't it?)
Well, it's quite funny, I think, because I'm sure is not a new in France!
You know, since I'm in catalonia again I have started to think that this countri, despite of Zapatero, is quite crazy...there are one 28 years old boy in prision because he tried to burn a spanish flag (it's not a joke, he will be in prision for two years) and we have our personal terrorism. But, who cares?? In the street people only speak about the economical crisis but every spanish person goes shopping almost every month. We pay around 700 hundred euros for a 30 metres square flat. And of course we only eat potates...(I've heard a girl who could only spend 3 euros per day because she was paying her flat...)
So, thats the Zapatero's plurinational and rich country, even if i think that in Italy is worst (Berlusconi i la Lega, thats a team!!)

Well, I just want to say, and is just for what i'm going to say that this blog is specially for Mél, that we have to make another 68 May! So, arriba las hachas i Vive Simon, cause i hope french people can make a revolution for us and, of course, I'll join them!

Beh...you Europeans tend to forget that the 1968 was started in 1964 in L.A., but never mind!

I'm kidding, i'm kidding! :-)

What you say is true. it's true in spain, it's true in italy. well, of course not for catalan, we have few people speaking catalan in sardegna i think...not a big social problem!

And language is just a symptom: people stay in jail 2 years in spain if they burn a flag, people stay in prison less than 2 years if they kill people driving while drunk.

And we dont speak of economical crisis!! even if i'm still highly sceptical about it, until i see shops full, easyjet planes full, cities empty during short holidays and so on...

ciao!!!
Giò

P.S.: wow, we are turning political on this blog too!
