ENCUENTROS ANALOGICOS EN LA TERCERA FASE

De entrada quiero pedir disculpas a mis amigos ANALÓGICOS Drummergirl (no DepuntoGepunto),Napi y Embajador del Candombe,por no haber podido estar allí....hermanos me habéis puesto los dientes largos.

Y como no he podido disfrutar de este,nuestro encuentro analógico,como pequeño homenaje a la amistad,esta entrada va dedicada a vosotros.......


"Lo virtual Vs lo Real,¿lo real se vuelve virtual y viceversa?¿encuentros en la tercera fase virtual?o¿ citas mañaneras alrededor de unas cervezas en la mesa de un bar?………
Después de todo el revuelo que se arma en el mundo virtual con los hackers,los pederastas, los pervertidos,los locos que hay sueltos entre las redes sociales,siempre te deja espacio para la duda:

¿Sera Napiato un ser cadavérico con problemas oculares?

¿Sera Aldoux un viejo Oráculo dispuesto a satisfacer cualquier duda ancestral?

¿Tendra Lisa Murphy Simpson una descomunal ictericia y se dedicara a tocar el saxo por las tardes?

¿Sera Sivadselim un trompetista de color que anda con las manos?

¿Sera Drummergirl un ser de cuyos tentaculos sobresalgan timbales de bata y tenga un ride por corona?

¿De verdad deambulara vikingo en su Drakkar por los fiordos de Noruega en tiempo estival?

¿Sera el Embajador del Candombe un Real Batracio o sera un Principe Beige con un repique colgado?

¿Sera pepejazzy un enano jorobado y retorcido que saca del fondo de su zurrón una sierra mecánica con la cual esta dispuesto a descuartizar a cualquier persona que encuentre en su camino?

Pues no después de esas pocas veces que lo virtual encuentra lo real o viceversa te das cuenta que detrás da cada nick hay personas de carne y hueso con las mismas inquietudes que tu.

Y hoy ha sido el día del encuentro tan esperado,todo gracias a las mesitas de café que se liaban en Atresillado en torno a algún disco ,y he de decir que todos somos gente normal,buena gente,en cuanto a mi, la sierra mecánica la tengo en el taller y lo de la joroba se me esta quitando......" (extraído de Xacharlar).
