Alot of them look like they can't keep their composure. It's either heavily reacting physically or staying in a zombie trance.

Talking about zombie trances, I remember learning of research on brain activity during gameplay. Large areas of the brain were active during the learning curve time where people where adapting to the game or when players met new challenges or obstacles unlike those before. The problem lied in the time where repetition kicked in and where nothing new was to be learned. At that stage very small areas of the brain were active.

bring me back a mango

btw there is a magical book in the van library of photographs of Havana and absolutely make sure you see havana, rather than get stuck, swilling margaritas and mohitos, at one of those "tourist" compounds,

Havana is fascinating, with amazing/crazy busy food, music, dancing, bars, culture, get out,and about,

i keeeeel you gringo

hola tomàs !

i'm glad you are not mad, as i am a tad frightened of you. i will be in the big city as well as my tourist compound, and i will try to bring you a mango, i just hope mango immigration department doesn't stop me in the airport. i'm already on bad terms with them ever since that incident with the guava and the donkey...

hello. i hope you're having a pleasant holiday and i also hope that santa claus doesn't devour all of your babies. my advice to you is to always remember to make sure you are wearing pants before leaving your residence, as i had the misfortune of forgetting that before leaving my house today.

and for more helpful advice, please do check out this artist's work when you're given the chance: http://www.annahiggie.com/vandm.asp
