Ron Granieri: Root, Root for the Laundry — Confessions of an Ex-pat Bills Fan « The Recovering Politician: "Cynics call this “rooting for the laundry” since the focus is on the uniform rather than the individual wearing it at any one time. For me, though, it means that when cheering for the Bills I am cheering not only for the players who happen to occupy the uniforms, but for Buffalo, for Western New York, for the friends and family back there and scattered around the world.

Fernando Olivera: El rapto.- TEXT FROM THE NOVEL The goldfinch by Donna Tartt (...) One night we were in San Antonio, and I was having a bit of a melt-down, wanting my own room, you know, my dog, my own bed, and Daddy lifted me up on the fairgrounds and told me to look at the moon. When "you feel homesick", he said, just look up. Because the moon is the same wherever you go". So after he died, and I had to go to Aunt Bess -I mean, even now, in the city, when I see a full moon, it's like he's telling me not to look back or feel sad about things, that home is wherever I am. She kissed me on the nose. Or where you are, puppy. The center of my earth is you". The goldfinch Donna Tartt 4441 English edition
