Freak out!

It is pretty cool to hear about the imminence of a big huge super duper earthquake in California (someday it will come for sure say the hoax masters).

Even cooler talk about the big explosion that Rainier will end up to.

The conclusion was: you know, we only have hurricanes here ...

I prefer Hand Grenades.

Home, home again, I like to be here when I can.

All is set, the song is over, thought I'd have something more to say.

Time? Flies, keeps flowing like a river.

Days? Dusk and dawn said she. Rise and set said he.

Best supporting actor? Dan Moroboshi for his supporting role as Ultra Seven.

My boys? One with amber eyes, the second withlight brown eyes, the twins with dark brown and light green eyes, all shining dazzled by the excitement.

The music? Electro-pulsing and waving and rocking and rolling.

Last thing: already sold the car.

Geez, Robert Fripp was at the Corporate Campus and I was not there. He recorded all the future sounds for Vista. What can I say? You would need to feel my heartbeat now.

A few days left to solve lots of things and to store a myriad of glimpses of the big city. Scary monsters, super creeps, keeping me running, running scared.

My top priority when arriving the US terrirtory to have a new synth (new in terms of ownership, since I would love a vintage analog late seventies, or even early 80's depending on what I find). If not possible/affordable, I will go to some configurable synthetics with embedded MID interface, the kids and I will rock'n'roll in the new home.

The outstanding joke of the year (and from last year): I still don't have a machine ...

As of today my family and I are official Florida residents. Sunshine State, here we go, minor details left, excitement all around.

During these last decade, traveling thru the cities and views of the World, I always wished to have my wife and family by my side, This new adventure begins exactly fullfilling that wish. We have always been Caribbean addicts, now we will be with the Caribbean doors opened and also a sort glimpse away from anywhere.

Dazzle! It's a glittering prize, shine on,

Putting the words together, making the sound tremble off the mouth, taking a sip, getting lost on a myriad of thoughts, shining lights flirting with consciousness.

The corners are empty after the storm, have I mentioned the stormt weather already? Thunderstorms, brainstorms, perfect match marching with the glass tears.

Tomorrow is the great day at the US Consulate. Today is the big rainy day of the season. Yesterday we downloaded all luggage and model toys from the attic.

The mess is growing. Let the adventure begin.

Top decision is regarding a new Tabla set, a Brazilian Viola or a Talking Drum. It would be the last musical acquisition in the country for a while. The Viola would be the perfect choice but it never ever turned me on as instrument. The Tabla set is not Brazilian off course but the offer is exciting.

The Tenor Acoustic Guitar restauration ends by January 23rd, it will be shine new again, possibly better than when it was hand made by the Del Vecchio father last century in the 40's, how will the move affect my vintage Acoustic Guitars?

Anyhow, let's check ignition and my heaven's love be with us ...

Day zero. Ground control issued a go command as the Visa and Work permit are issued by local US Consulate.

Moving date targets to February the 2nd, however pressures from the above will challenge me to go earlier, by mid-January for example.

A Master of Ceremony oaganizes a full staff of Moving assistant, Rellocation assistant, Tax Consultants here and there, Attorneys, English teachers, RH representative. Forms, forms, forms and forms. A huge ammount of paperwork, details and discussions.

Inventory is crazy.

Summer is great, rainy and hot. Winter is great, cloudy and warm. Family is happy with the opportunity to explore the shores of time.

I wish I could better position pictures here.
