Today is a difficult day, but it is also a happy goodbye, and I want to share this with you. A couple of weeks ago, I helped a friend who runs a shelter take care of a puppy. The puppy needed special attention because it was the only survivor of six siblings that had been abandoned. My friend found all of them sick with parvo, and after the medical treatment, this little one still needed extra…

What’s a promise you made to yourself that you’ve actually kept? When I was little, I was a big enthusiastic of cars, F1, etc. I remember buying automotive magazines (yes, I am that old) and learn about engines, speed and models. I’ve always admire Mercedes-Benz as a brand, being one of the first to patent the motor, I know it was Daimler as well, but there were no Daimler vehicles when I was…

Hopefully I was clear enough in the subject, but I read an article that mentioned it only takes 37 seconds to decide whether you will keep reading an article or not. This made me think: is 37 seconds really enough? Here are some random things you can do in 37 seconds: Read a paragraph of 90 to 120 words. Make a beathing pause. Do a quick mental exercise, like crossing one hand and the…

What is the best purchase you have ever made? I am a musical person who is always or most of the time listening to music, podcasts or some random soundtrack. I don’t want to sound “pretentious” but the quality audio and the feature you have when you are using them, goes beyond my expectation. I use them all day, for meeting and also for some house chores.

What app eats up most of your screen time — and do you even feel bad about it? Since this app had a boom, I started entering at least 1 hour daily, not because of the trends, just because I see some ideas for food, music recommendations and most of dog videos. I blocked the screen time for 30 minutes, but when I have some free time, skip this lock. One of the reasons I came back to Jetpack, to…

If you had to be an animal for a week, which one would you be and why? But not any dog, one of my dogs, I am in charge of 4 dogs and I try to give them the best life possible. Said that, they have no concerns, no worries, nothing at all, just enjoy life and sleep.

What’s a chapter of your life you’d title “The Hard Years” — and what got you through it? I don’t like being pessimist or depressive, but sometimes I don’t the light in the end of the tunnel, I would like to give some background, but this starts before C.O.V.I.D. But I am sure I you don’t want bored to get So to answer the question, I am sure this is the chapterof “The Hard Years”

Who is your favorite blogger to follow? There is this Mexican writer named Pablo Duarte and have this blog “El otro newsletter”. He writes about some poems, books and gives this type of fortune. I really like his writing.

What’s a lesson you’ve learned recently that shifted your perspective? I am an old person and always thought “be a good person, and good persons will be in your life” After some bad years that appear to continue I think good people are not continuing their thinking.

What’s something you used to believe as a kid that seems ridiculous now? Nah! I am just kidding. I was a very and curious kid very introvert, so most of the tie I prefer to “find my own explanation than really ask” So there were a lot of things L used tobelieve that now seems ridiculous. Here is the list of things I used to believe: When my mom was driving and used the turn signal, I belice…

Well dince a lot of songs have some recording period, I decided to catch the in-between of those songs, lets do this for the first time. “Come Toghether” was recorded on 1969 in Abbey Road studios, between 21-30 July. I have to say this songs brings me a lot of young memories, since the first time I heard this song was Michael’s Jacksons cover, cool one by the way, but few years later i learned…

Yesterday was almost impossible for myself to write, but I will try to add yesterday and todays anniversaries. July 25, 2024 One of the most relevant anniversaries I have found for July 25, was “The electric controversy”, which basically was when Bob Dylan decided to move from acoustic to electric, but, why is a controversy? It was considered high treason by his fans, since Dylan was considered…

Do you remember having the feeling to go outside and run like all this runners that apparently enjoy running (to be honest i really doubt it), but now is your oportunity to jump in your favourite shorts, take your running sneakers and plan “Eye of the Tiger” for motivation, because today in 1982 this song from Survivor was No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart. “Cowboys from Hell” was an album…

As every day, let me begin with some general fun facts in Music. What happened 58 years ago Frank Sinatra’s “Strangers in the Night” was 1° on the UK Album Chart, this album became one of the most important for Frank Sinatra. In 1980 Keith Godchaux from Greatful Dead passed away, he was a key player in the band’s transition from the 60s to the 70s. In jazz music, Eric Dolphy, saxophonist…

Sooo, what we have for today in music anniversaries. You like funk music? Well George Clinton of Parliament-Funkadelic was born on 1941. If you like this type of music you should try this great musician, but you might think, what can I listen from him? Well he was one of the primary composers in “Trolls World Tour”, a movie I really enjoyed and still watch when I feel bad, is my comfort…

So for today’s anniversary I have made my research and found some interesting data: In rock music, we have 3 notable releases: Bruce Springsteen’s “Born in the U.S.A.”, which I will not give more detail due to the political situation rightnow; Guns N’ Roses “Appetite for Destruction” with greates songs such as ‘Welcome to the Jungle’, ‘Paradise City’ and ‘Sweet Child o’Mine’, and some interested…

As I am trying to write more and use this great app, I need some “guidance” for writing, since is kind of difficult for me to be that creative. Said that, I will try to bring you some rock anniversaries. For this time I will bring you a great album from one of my favorite musicians: Bob Dylan. His 5th album was “Another Side Of Bob Dylan” which was released 60 years ago, when Dylan was only 23…
