by checking your fingernails regularly - before you pick the snotty nose ¿¡ññññññññ!?

¿ñ?

Yippee, it's the 12th of the tenth month again. This is the day that all over the world people get a day off work if they've got that sort of job so they may reflect what being Hispanic is about & how jolly good Colombus was for being credited with discovering India.
It offers a wide range of people from South Americans to Basques & Catalans to demonstrate that they are not in any way Hispanic & have no commonwealth with Spain or her democracy & then get arrested for it. Whilst on the other side of the wondrous spectrum of humanity it offers people a chance to look at the army in Madrid & the annual hissing of Zapatero in the minute of silence...........something for everyone........

in Mississippi did Kublah Khañ a stately Babel build

It is very curious that a man who is hotly claimed by several nations as their own, is credited with discovering a continent he did not & introducing to it a language which wasn't his & all on the basis of losing two out of three ships, faking a log & bringing nothing much back other than parrots & coldsores. Really very odd.........blame the church for that one you can't blame the masons coz they weren't invented yet and you can't blame the jews coz they'd just been expelled and were living peacefully in exile with the muslims of the barbary coast.

So a brief reminder of what happens across the world as they react to the glue which unites the second most widespread language on the planet. For indeed as of this year the tongue of "ñ" has usurped the tongue of "w" & so one can now put "ñ" in internet addresses if that makes one money. & despite the most spoken, written & widespread languages having no "W" (double u) they still have to put 3 of them in every address.

* Venezuela has the Día de la Resistencia Indígena (Spanish for "Day of Indigenous Resistance") in Venezuela. They renamed it from the previous "day of the race" for the 2002 celebrations - obviously Hugo worked up to that one & waited till he was ready.

* The people of Argentina are still waiting for decree 7112 passed on the 4th of October 1917 declaringOct12 as their "national hollier" to be revoked. Obviously they're not too prioritised about it because they've managed to get through several constitutions and a few dictatorships since. Or perhaps they just like having a hollier. You might not believe nor even trust the mighty sun God but you still like Xmas prezzies & chocky eggs. I'm adopting a simplified tone, baiting sceptic or suchlike. Of all the supposed "hispanic" peoples they have done the most to change the language.

* Today the Queen of Engurland took time off of fretting about the Diana inquest & wrote a letter to the King of Spain wishing prosperity to all the Spaniards on this their day of national disunity. She hasn't done that before on account of Gibraltar. Oh they nurse a grudge those types. & just in case you don't believe me Gibraltar has just celebrated an election & Mr Caruana has won again. http://www.elpais.com/articulo/espana/socialdemocrata/P...2/Tes
You can compare the development of democratic stuff at "el peñon" by reading an archived article on "how the Gibraltar lot voted & not voted" which somehow got mixed up with an Ulster election celebrated on the same day. Funny that. Those people nurse a grudge too.

* Basques endure their annual Falange march with an anti-fascist gig & march by the ANV bunch under the banner "independence for Euskal Herria". Here's a link to Basque telly with an english language report it notes a trade union commented "today is not a holiday" - that was the LAB union for the joseba experts amongst you. http://www.eitb24.com/new/en/B24_70348/politics/MARCHES...t-in/

* Catalans have mostly accepted the day of work & the schools are closed & they'd have you believe every katalander fit to hold a zippo has gone to the inland city of Lleida which is within spitting distance of the hated Spain to burn photos. You might like to go to http://barcelona.indymedia.org/?category=cultures today & see how seriously people take their non-day. Of course some argue Columbus was Catalan http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Origin_theories_of_Christo...umbus

& naturally we Irish got there first.............or did we come from there?
& the vikings. & the chinese. & well the people who were there must have got there somehow - no & is it very odd how much they seemed to have in common with others?

So at end this is not a day of resistance or even hispanic identity- it is a day of faked & forged history. Truly the stuff of Kings & Queens - it is the day of those who say they own history & they've the war trophies & clipped moustachio'd hanger-ons to prove it.

The Catalans burnt pictures of the Bourbon King who invaded them in 1707.

The Falange had their rally & mosh up ruck in the Basque.

The "españa2000" skins burnt pictures of the Lehandakari and leader of the Catalan Republicans in Valencia.

The LAB Basque union who told everyone it wasn't a holiday took time off work and marched to call for independence & no holiday.

The ANV assembled in both Donastai / San Sebastian in the Basque and Iruña / Pamplona in Navarra. Curiously the "ñ" is in the Basque name, for Euskera is the only other language in the world which uses it. They confirmed they're going to punt the General Elections in both the Basque & Navarra as the party of a secular, republican & socialist independent Euskal Herria. & as everyone might have noticed there is now absolutely nothing left to stop them doing that.

The PP issued a declaration which most sensible people described as para-fascist urging all people to fly the Spanish flag "which unites everyone & symbolises our union our institutions" union - union - union...

The PSOE in the form of Zapatero were as expected hissed & booed in Madrid.

There was a riot as expected in San Sebastian.

There were lots of articles on "ñ" & why hispanics aren't unified by anything. (call them spics & see how quickly they unifiy)

Gibraltar had a great day & with bunting on the streets & cheap ale a plenty the plucky brits of the rock toasted their guvner Peter Caruana on winning another term as their Queen's longest serving prime minister who still hasn't gone as curly round the edges as the Ozzie Howard.

cool little logo - the star of david & a trippy swastika. The Basques invented both of them you know.
