    RIP Leonard Nimoy

    A lot of the actors we all love are on their eighties, and it'll be very sad that in this year more deaths will happen

    Only the Master

    And I add that on the people that had Spanish as their mother language, are also King's fans, and find difficult to follow the extremely rich Master's vocabulary, (like I am), there have the chance to find all his works translated to Spanish. The firm sells on Spanish and English. (and no, I'm...

    Fifty?

    71 is my best age. Well, the only one I have at the moment. But, as Groucho said, if you don't like it, I can change it.

    What Are You Reading?

    I'll finish re-reading The Shining tomorrow, and Monday I'll start with The Lord of the Ring, in English (!?) I've read it translate to Spanish long ago, but I got the complete 3 on a single very thick and heavy pocket type book, 1031 pages, very small letters. With my deficient knowledge of...

    I knew somebody would said Rachmaninoff. That's way I made a bet. No, not him.

    I Want To Change My Screen Name

    I choose my name to honour a certain Russian classical composer I very much admire. But I bet you wouldn't guess (or care) who he is. He had the best and most extensive corpus of chamber music in Russia of the 19 Th.century. And I've all his chamber works recorded.

    Autobiographies, Whose Have You Read?

    I've read several autobiographies, but they are all of some famous violinists: Menuhin, Temianka, Flesch, Szygeti. If you aren't a classical music and violin fan, it wouldn't interested you at all.

    Hello To Everyone! I´m A Newcomer From Mexico City =)

    Hola Alejandro. Saludos desde Buenos Aires. Concuerdo contigo en que al Maestro hay que leerlo en su idioma. Las traducciones, por adecuadas que sean, si bien tienen la ventaja de entenderse todas las palabras, pierden en mi opinión los dos tercios al menos del encanto y fuerza el texto...

    King Manias And Phobias

    Really. You see, I'm a classical music fan and records collector, and I can't stand rock since the 50s on. Generally it bothers me. In best case, it bore me.

    King Manias And Phobias

    There's two King's manias I don't share: baseball (I don't care at all) and rock music (I can't stand it). And two phobias I share completely: woman abusers and sadistic guys, and rats.

    Good Movie, But

    ...bad cast selection. Fine actors, but there was a very big mistake: the guy who made the fugitive (don't remember his name,sorry) is very tall and a big fellow.
