My Dad Masterbates In Front Of Me

The We did it! The Seventh is respected ...

won this Battle! The works by the Seventh Race to build the Transmilenio light finally postponed. Although the mayor and other entities do not justify its decision for the reasons we gave in The Seventh is respected, which I think, personally, the most essential and obvious, the administration, is at or because they prefer to wait until the weather improves and the Traffic Management Plan is defined completely, have said publicly last night that construction definitely postponed. Fanfare, cheers and more applause also to the win. But we are not there.

We postponed a bit more improvised, traffic jams, the rompedera Street, dust and most of all the traffic jams and routes infarcted. But was postponed. So, we won the battle but not war. Again, as a very individual view from my position as author of this blog, the Transmilenio light and its design, were made under the assumption that it would to be a complementary system to the underground, promising system that blinded most of the capital's voters and began to dream for a couple of years until this year, when they awoke, they realized the nightmare that was his choice of Samuel Moreno and the high price they paid, not only them but all who live here everyday and we mobilized to study, work or whatever. And always keep a position that brings some sadness and disappointment towards Transmilenio, my preference system (tell him what you say), by failing to adopt previous and original plans for the construction of the trunk, which would have been wonderful for City and completeness, well-planned from the beginning, the only system that did something to save the capital of collapse, at least in this decade. Through it is not the solution Transmilenio final and thousands more have to make adjustments to the city, but while we can, defend the fullness of the system construction, parallel, of course, to the planning and execution of all other road works and adjustment as required.

And for the sample, for the umpteenth time in the history of politics in Colombia, they have proof that voters do not learn that we should not believe what politicians promise us. For people who do not know your history, is convicted of a. .. The video below

The audacity of a drunk driving Mobocol

A man in a state of total drunkenness, as can be evidenced in the video, decide to go in the opposite during the race 15 to the height of the Street 75. Nobody can out of the car or to wake him. I can hardly speak. and pedestrians out there were around, but obviously something tomaditos too (it's no secret to anyone, just to hear them) will propose methods to move the car to the police, and Adema's have two other people who came in the car flew away and left his friend pulled the driver, very wearing ties and fresh out of apparently some celebration.

Snowboarding Weekend Invitation Wording

joins the request to postpone the Transmilenio Light

Mobocol Now, in addition to supporting and promote the salvation of the possible death of Ciclovía Career Seventh, between calles 31 and 72 (whose website and can support request www.lacicloviaserespeta.com ), we have joined the cause of The Seventh Respect is (www.laseptimaserespeta.com), an initiative created by to Angélica Lozano (former mayor of Chapinero) and which was added immediately who wrote this post. Even

first hand, we found that the citizens are little or nothing optimistic about the end, some day soon, for this project. Thanks to the survey that was raised (and is still active in the right column), is by far how most Americans believe that the work will never end, second polling place many believe that unless reversed, and the pessimists believe to be ready for 2015. Are almost negligible numbers to back the idea that the work is finished before 2014. There is a serious study clearly but it shows at least above that the citizens are accustomed to year after year we run dates in which they promise to deliver something, whether it's plugged a hole.

The request is made to the mayor, by 5 points behind it and a signature collection that support, aims to at least postpone the construction works backbone "light" Transmilenio that for obviousness, without proper planning for traffic management and other washers are adhered to the work, completely cripple this sector of the city affecting both residents and traders.

The joke is that there is not even planning . So Angelica and found their own ways as El Espectador and El Tiempo. Within 20 days of the date of commencement of work began to uncover the truth about the desire to be printed in these important works for the city, perhaps by poring hand of the mayor and other officials, urged to sign contracts and grant procurement. I do not know exactly what the reason, but I know (and we all know that live here) the dire consequences and results of the improvisation that has already become capital almost a sport based in the Palace Liévano.

The flag and slogan of this request is simple and straightforward: do not want a mate for the work of the 26, do not want another tragedy for Bogotá. And she says the very same website where the information contained in the initiative. There are documents, articles and images that support it. Attorney and requested the IDU who do not start work on the road. Remains to be seen how much of that happening here from words to deeds.

is necessary, the city is vital to stop this other potential own goal that will put the city. If you think like me and is convinced that the city urges you not to continue improvising read here a summary of the Top 5 Reasons to sign . Or if you trust my word enough, not only the reasons I give here dear reader, but you must separate your own, immediately sign here and the only thing left to do to you, me and everyone is cross our fingers and hope everything goes well. Planned.

2010 Voted Best Junior Racket

immobilized Friday! No. 2

For today I present you with two situations. The first absurd, as is customary in Bogotá, and the second a bit tragic.

Today Friday, I thought I was going to run out of interesting material for a new edition of immobilized , but finishing the day I came across this gem, nothing more, nothing less than in front of the main entrance of Unicentro (on Race 15), where dozens of pedestrians crossing the road by now almost nonexistent zebras, looked stunned this typical abuse of power in Colombia. First image:


The picture shows with some clarity, how a bachelor police (reflective vest) approaches the red car, which erratically goes into the separator is in that section of Avenue 15, across from the mall. First, among the people there watching, we wonder if they would try to make the "U" to take the road in the opposite direction, which is impossible, since the terrain is anything but flat and a small platform that appears damaged by biting , preventing access to otherwise.

But ... Oh surprise, when we realize that high school graduates, who initially ran out to stop erratic maneuvers this car suddenly relax about the situation, and do not care if the light turns green, while other cars begin to beep and protest the reckless are parked on and not leave anyone behind his move. Within seconds we all understood why they did:
3 In the car were properly uniformed military and, as usual in the city, abusing their authority and making the public space as they please, without more reason than personal gain. Because they feel and believe they can. One of them got out of the car, said goodbye to the other, he said something to the bachelor and crossed the 15 to Unicentro as he owned the place, even when the light was green for vehicle traffic. I spent another couple of minutes there watching, and these characters followed by traffic jam and leaving the car crossed in the middle of Bogota Avenue, for a reason I never understood. For information, hopefully one day useful as a complaint, was a Chevrolet Aveo car, if not fail my knowledge and memory, red and RDV 321 plates.

again overstepping the authority before our eyes, in this case mine and those of several people who were there. The special was to see another high school next to me, looking just as stunned and helpless to his companion, who finally do not blame at all, because he appeared in front other authority (so to speak), and had no choice but basically submissive and say yes to everything.

is, as we illustrated, for several years and life, the wise Jaime Garzón on the functioning of this country where we have the logic backwards. Where we will end up serving public servants worth the sad redundancy, and not vice versa, it should be. So I left saying aloud quemadísimo Colombian comment, those who are already a cliché and not make you laugh, although at one time they did it: "Do you see? That's why this country is like it is ..." .

And for the second and final scene fixed, I came across this accident on the Avenida Boyacá up to approximately 160 Street. I took a few pictures, perhaps not very clear, you dear reader will excuse the quality regular, but I do not usually carry more than halfway decent camera on my phone:

Although people can not see at all, had a truck seriously affected by the accident on the crane, which appears in both photos, behind another car also has some damage and, if my memory betray me, another small car, behind, does not appear in the photos, with the back quite affected. There were several people in the separator, as well as some police and the other side another car to assist, if you know or care what type.

That's it for this Friday and hopefully worth of 2x1, by the absence of note last week.

Does images, videos or stories that would bring to our section on Friday detained!? Send your contributions to mobocol@gmail.com with all data and equipment necessary to publish the news. We'll write it and give the respective credit (unless otherwise requested) in this section, thanks to the occurrences of our city, we always offer rich and varied stories.
