Orders are orders...

This one's by film critic Antoni Gasset:
"Yo detesto mandar, prefiero que me manden. Así me puedo dedicar a una de mis ocupaciones preferidas: desobedecer"

or, in rough translation:
"I hate to to be in command, I prefer to be ordered. Thus I can indulge in one of my favourite activities: to disobey"

Anything but Laughton

Oh, yes, there's a blog o' mine there devoted to Charles Laughton. "Devoted" comes from devotion, in that case...

Since the other place is intended to be a monothematic shrine (or sort of), I just thought that maybe I would feel the compulsion to drop irrelevant thoughts on other assorted issues. Just to let some steam off.

Tiger-nut milk, Hideko Takamine or downhill races on ball-bearing wheel carts have been mentioned, but then anything goes here, and that should include Setsuko Hara, fallen sparrows and swallows, Toshiro Mifune, unorthodox uses of hairclips, Hayao Miyazaki, Alan Booth, Bill Tytla, Fridtjof Nansen, Clausevitz for dummies, Ortega y Pacheco (los Madelman pueden con todo), Llorenç Villalonga, Paul Chadwick, James Mason, Robert Stewart Sherriffs, Arriki-town ventures, Polar regions, Manel Fontdevila, Mikio Naruse, Pompeii and the list could go on...

o-zure, o-tsure...
