Sexta-Feira passada, reparo na timeline do twitter "We'll meet up at Cilantro's Zamalek near Um Kolthoum Hotel at 19:00 :P". Hotel esse onde estive hospedado alguns meses e embora preferisse beber o café no Beano's para conversar mais tranquilamente, são nomes muito intímos com a minha vida.
Sexta-Feira passada, reparo na televisão por causa do sorteio de grupos para o campeonato mundial de futebol e vejo o Mount Nelson Hotel na Cidade do Cabo. Vivia num apartamento da Breda St, nas traseiras do dito hotel e trabalhava junto do centro de congressos onde foi realizado o sorteio, todas as outras imagens da cidade e arredores foram uma tortura, boa, para a memória.
Sexta-feira recebi um email da interminável lista de creatures-from-Australia-that-can-kill-you. "This is an Irukandji jellyfish, a distant relative of the better-known box jellyfish that can kill an adult human in two minutes. A 29-year-old man encountered an Irukandji yesterday: When he dove off the yacht off north-east Queensland on Thursday, the man was wearing a full-length "stinger suit," a lightweight version of a wet suit that covers everything but the face, feet and hands, but he was immediately stung in the face and had to be rushed to an intensive care unit. The jellyfish's sting can lead to "Irukandji syndrome," a set of symptoms that includes shooting pains in the muscles and chest, vomiting, restlessness and anxiety. Some symptoms can last for more than a week, and the syndrome can occasionally lead to a rapid rise in blood pressure and heart failure... because the jellyfish leave almost no mark on their victims, scientists believe they are responsible for many deaths that were attributed as drownings or heart attacks..." Pensava eu que o dentuça de pontas brancas era perigoso.
