De momento, una curiosidad
Estoy harto, un poco lo mismo os pasa a todos, me imagino, de esos correos "spam" que ofrecen de todo menos lo que uno necesita. Debería haber un ente en la red encargado de meterles por salva sea la parte toda esa mensajería a sus generadores. En estos días que he estado aislado ya os imaginais la cantidad de estos mensajitos que he recibido. Suelo borrarlos sin más, pero esta vez se me ocurrió curiosear por algunos de ellos. Y encontré uno bastante curioso. Es algo largo y está en inglés pero creo que merece la pena le echeis un vistazo, hay gente para todo. Antes de nada, aclarar que yo a esta señora no la conozco de nada.
Asunto: CAN YOU ASSIST PLEASE?

Dear Friend,
After due deliberation with my children, I decided to contact you for
your assistance in standing as a beneficiary to the sum of US$13 Millon
(Thirteen Million United States Dollars Only) First, let me start by
introducing myself, I am Mrs. Susan Shabangu, a mother of three
children
and the Deputy Minister of Safety and Security of the Republic of South
Africa, Vice-Chairperson of the National Labour and
Development Institute. Member of the African National Congress (ANC)
Steering Committee, under the President of South Africa MR THABO
MBEKI.Visit this site for my profile
http://www.info.gov.za/gol/gcis_profile.jsp?id=1066 After the swearing
in ceremony making me the Deputy Minister of Minerals and Energy, my
husband Mr Ndelebe Shabangu died while he was on a trip to Trinidad and
Tobago in 2002. After his death, I discovered that
he had some funds in a dollar account which mounted to the sum of US$13
Million with SECURITY COMPANY.
This fund emanated as a result of an over-invoiced contract which he
executed with the Government of South Africa. Though I assisted him in
getting this contract but I never knew it was over-invoiced by him. I
am
afraid that the government of South Africa might start investigations
on contracts awarded from 1998 to date and If they discover this money
with this security company, they will confiscate it and seize his
assets here in South Africa and this will definetely affect my
political
career in government. I want your assistance in clearing this money
from
the security firm . As soon as the fund is cleared, you are expected to
move it immediately into another personal bank account in your country.
I will see to it that the account is not traced from South Africa. As
soon as you have confirmed the fund in your account, I will send my
eldest son with my Attorney to come to your country to
discuss on business investments.
For your assistance, I am offering you 3 Million (Three million United
States Dollars Only) However, you have to assure me and also be ready
to go into agreement with me that you will not elope with the money. If
you agree to my terms, kindly as a matter of urgency send me an email.
Due to my sensitive position in the South African Government, I would
not WANT you to call me on phone or send a fax to me. All
correspondence
must be by email to my private email.
If you want to speak with my Attorney, that is fine and okay by me. His
chambers will be representing my interest with you. All correspondence
must be made through my Attorney. I will also like you to give me
your contact address of telephone, fax and email to enable my Attorney
call or reach you from time to time. Please I do not need to remind you
of
the need for absolute Confidentiality if this transaction must succeed.
YOU MUST NOT CALL ME! If you do not feel comfortable with this
transaction, do not hesitate to discontinue. Thanks for your
anticipated
co-operation and my regards to your family.
Yours faithfully,
Mrs. Susan Shabangu.

El rebuzno
Hoy sólo aspiro a no encerrarme de nuevo mañana.
Intentaré pasar a saludaros poco a poco, todavía me desborda casi todo.
Gracias por seguir pasando por aquí e intentar animarme, es algo que no creo merecer.

Un humano es un burro que tropieza en la misma piedra
En el instinto de los animales, incluso de los más diminutos que conocemos, se incluye una faceta que ayuda en muchos casos a la supervivencia, que permite a cada individuo advertir el peligro y huir en enloquecida o incluso controlada carrera, o esconderse en el primer agujero disponible.
Los humanos, aunque animales, tenemos esos instintos, como decirlo..., “atolondrados” por siglos de cultivo de otras habilidades no menos provechosas pero que dejan en nosotros una lacra, un defecto, que supone para muchos, entre los que he de incluirme, un problema real de supervivencia.
En general se valora más a quien enfrenta un peligro que a quien huye de él y eso nos hace a veces perder la perspectiva y plantar cara a asuntos que obviamente nos desbordan. Por otro lado también podemos encontrar casos de gentes que huimos de cualquier azar, por insignificante que sea, escondiéndonos en el primer agujero que encontramos.
Para mí es una constante este último supuesto... ni siquiera es necesario que asome ningún demonio por el horizonte... simplemente me escondo, huyo, no sé muy bien ni de qué ni de quién, quizás de mí mismo. Y paso días enteros en la más absoluta soledad y metido en la rutina diaria sin apenas darme cuenta.
Tener una burbuja donde esconderse es comparable a vivir aislado en medio de los picos de la cordillera del Himalaya. Así, en medio de una blancura extensísima, como en un último viaje, he pasado esta anterior quincena.
Otra vez, sin saber porqué, he perdido una parte de mi tiempo...
