Now That Is A Nice Dream

as the song says...!

Честит Трети март!

Be it the Day of Liberation or the Day of Independence (I understand that the debate is still on about that) - today is the celebration of FREEDOM, by any other name, for all Bulgarians! 
And to all freedom-lovers and freedom-seekers there an abroad, I wish thee a GREAT ONE!  
For the time of oppression has to come to an end: Boiko The Clown and his array of pumpkinheads have to disappear, once and for all, in order for TRUE LIBERATION TO COME, AT LAST!  May it be a total and complete liberation indeed: one from the tyrannical remnants of communism, from a system that is rotten to the core, from the corruption lying under its underbelly, from the organized crime and the unsightly Whore...!  Moreover, may it be a liberation from the hideous side of oneself: and may only the beautiful aspects of Bulgaria live on and thrive on after this wave of changes and gust of fresh air that is about to sweep the nation from Vitosha to the Black Sea!  And no commies, no gypsies, no mafiosos and no pumpkins can stop it now!  


VIVA BULGARIA - LIBRE!

Post-Bloggum - How ironic this is, that they staged so many protests against the awful austerity measures reminiscent of old communist regime tactics; protests with record numbers of participants, in 20 different cities to boot, all across a country that appears to have more and more ties with Bulgaria as time goes by... Portugalia!   And how ironic that all these protests were staged very nearly on the same day (okay, give or take less than 24 hours; still pretty much the same day) of ''liberation'' for Bulgaria, the dormant lion of Europa, days after and before Bulgaria's own wave of protests too!  Portugalia and Bulgaria are linked through many very distinct traits: and it is not just because the Bulgarian government was, most recently, before the Pumpkin's resignation, willing to buy old  fighter jets from Portugal for hundreds of millions...!  Thank you for contributing to the reboot of the Portuguese economy, though - merci!   It could really due to the many similarities found in the respective cultures, traditions, folklore and even language and idioms. What about the rakia and agua ardente: are they close cousins or what! But no, the real reason is this, of course: the king and queen of Europa, married in Sofia and exiled... in Canada? Yours truly - and she!  No need to involve the Canadiana tis time out, though - however, to further this line of *luminous connections* we strongly encourage all to drop y our sister site/brother blog... Portuguese Dreams!   Muito Obrigado!  :-)

Venceremes!
