Old Monkey Stories Episode 3/50 - Blackmailing

I was watching the most interesting tv program about corruption in Colombia in National Geographic Channel with my friend "MC" and he said that even in his company "WISHCOM" there's somebody used to corruption, I think that now you know who I'm talking about, off course it's the Old Monkey "RPD", and here's how this happens: Every time, a technician or an engineer is about to travel to an African or Asiatic country, he may need a Laptop, GPS or other equipments, so he'll ask the "RPD" for these equipments cause "RPD" is the ressources manager but only materials ressources (chairs, dustbins...,) and at that special moment the "RPD" says: "look, if you need my help, you must bring with you a perfume for me from the freeshop (Duty Free shops in the airports), otherwise, I'll not help you the next time" and I felt "MC" furious against "RPD", cause these guys are working really hard outside of Tunisia to give the best image of our dear "WISHCOM" and to improve it more and more, and then come this ass hole "RPD" and take their money. By the way, "MC" heard that "RPD" will open a perfumery for his retreat and here' are some samples from the collection that will be available in his perfumery.

Old Monkey Stories Episode 2/50 - hypocrisy

I was talking the last day with my friend "MC" who was working with "WISHCOM", and he evoked to me how he wrote his resignation letter, and how the big boss really appreciated it, but "MC" was surprised as he heard that the Old Monkey "RPD" saw the letter, off course "RPD" is the ressources manager, but only materials (chairs, dustbins...) and never human ressources. Whatever, what really surprised "MC" is that "RPD" congratulated "MC" for his letter, and asked him "Can you please teach me how you can write such good letters? I've never seen a resignation letter like that!" and few minutes later "MC" heard that "RPD" said to the other managers that he had the same resignation letter saved on his computer and that "MC" is an untruthful who had downloaded the model of the letter from Internet. "MC" wanted just to say to "RPD" this: "what if you could be man, and be honest to say what you want to say, what if you could be man and courageous enough to talk to the others face to face rather than talking below the tables and in corners, what if you could stop your bullshit and be more concentrated on your job rather than putting your finger in your ass saying it smells horrible, do you think, at such special moment you'll be more respectable by your colleagues, and be more productive in our dear "WISHCOM"!"

Old Monkey Stories Episode 1/50 - Apfelsaft

A friend of mine named "MC", resigned his contract with his company "WISHCOM", so to improve to his collegues how much he likes them, he bought some local confectionery and apple juice (Apfelsaft), and they really appreciated it, but the Old Monkey named "RPD" couldn't refrain from giving one of his ass hole comments, so he said "The apple juice wasn't a good idea, it smells and taste like alcohol", in Tunis we said this proverb "Ignorance is Tragedy", so just to help the Old Monkey "RPD" to distinguish between basic life elements, here he can see what is Apfelsaft and what is Alcohol.

Yamaha XTE600 - Goodbye My Lover

Goodbye my lover.
Goodbye my friend.
You have been the one.
You have been the one for me.

I am a dreamer and when i wake,
You can't break my spirit - it's my dreams you take.
And as you move on, remember me,
Remember us and all we used to be
I've seen you cry, I've seen you smile.
I've watched you sleeping for a while.

African Art - Souvenir from Mali - Masks

Every time I see these masks, I couldn't keep myself of thinking, why do people like masks, is it just because it's funny and beautiful to carry a mask, or is it because some people feel shame while they're doing nasty facts and can feel more confortable building their lives behind masks.

African Art - Souvenir from Mali - The Sitting Man

Every time I see this statue, I'm asking my self; "what is that man doing, is he just relaxing after a hard working day, or is he just sitting there looking at the desert, waiting for destiney to make things change" Personally I suppose I can feel bored if I was at such situation, but I can understand that sometimes we don't have the choice of motion and making things feel better and better.
