Punto y aparte

Paso por aquí y veo que la última "entrada" es de febrero, hace ya medio año.

Lo que nunca imaginé que pasaría ha sucedido. Durante años pensé que, una vez empezado el blog, seguiría escribiendo con más o menos frecuencia indefinidamente. Y este lugar en la web sería reflejo, parcial y distorsionado, de mi vida.

Pero no. Por alguna razón que aún no alcanzo a comprender, de pronto se me fueron las ganas de contar cosas. (No del todo, no nos pongamos solemnes: en este tiempo he publicado alguna que otra cosilla en mi web, y el puto Facebook me tiene atrapado...).

No descarto que, igual que se fueron, vuelvan en algún momento. Pero dudo de que siga escribiendo aquí, en este sitio que le tengo alquilado a Google. Si alguna vez retomo el vicio, lo haré en mi propia casa.

Statistician's Blues



They say 3 percent of the people use 5 to 6 percent of their brain
97 percent use 3 percent and the rest goes down the drain
I'll never know which one I am but I'll bet you my last dime
99 percent think we're 3 percent 100 percent of the time

The say 60 percent of all the world's statistics are made up right there on the spot
82.4 percent of people believe 'em whether they're accurate statistics or not
I don't know what you believe but I do know there's no doubt
I need another double shot of something 90 proof

I got too much to think about
Too much to think about
Too much to figure out
Stuck between hope and doubt
It's too much to think about

They say 92 percent of everything you learned in school was just bullshit you'll never need
84 percent of everything you got you bought to satisfy your greed
Because 90 percent of the world's population links possessions to success
Even though 80 percent of the wealthiest 1 percent of the population
Drinks to an alarming excess
More money, more stress, I guess

It's too much to think about
Too much to figure out
Stuck between hope and doubt
It's too much to think about

84 percent of all statisticians truly hate their jobs
They say the average bank robber lives within say about 20 miles of the bank that he robs
There's this little bank not far from here I've been watching now a while
Lately all I can think about's how bad I wanna go out in style

And it's too much to think about
Too much to figure out
Stuck between hope and doubt
It's too much to think about
That's right
It's too much to think about
Amen
It's too much to think about
