Timona Sache şi 40 comentatori

Poate că într-o zi va veni şi timpul când românii nu vor mai crede în Feţi Frumoşi, Ilene Cosânzene, zmei, balauri şi alte tele-basme fermecate. Până atunci, citiţi blogul Timonei cu postul despre Gigel cu haremul (sau haramul) de 40 femei, blog care pare el însuşi scris de 40 draci, în frunte cu Timona Sache însăşi.

Real Communists

Those mentioned below had a very important role in the history of communism in Romania. However, they have something else in common. Besides everybody getting goosebumps from fear every time their name was mentioned during their whole existence.

First, Lenin. "Lenin's father, Ilya Nikolayevich Ulyanov (1831–1886), was the fourth child of impoverished tailor Nikolai Vassilievich Ulyanov – born a serf of either Kalmyk or Tatar descent – and a far younger Kalmyk named Anna Alexeevna Smirnova, who lived in Astrakhan." Barely any Russian, if any.



Mother, at least half German.

Petru Groza (sounds a bit like Groschopf, doesn't it?)

Maurer, half Alsatian

Bodnăraş, half German.

Maurer and Bodnăraş did a lot of things against Romanians under the cover of communism, but i want to mention here the crucial role they both played in the naming of Ceauşescu as the conducător of Romania, în 1965. Ceauşescu himself, by name is of Turkish descent. Ceauş (çavuş) în Turkish means sergeant.

Dej, raised in Moineşti by his uncle. His uncle or aunt probably from there.

Romanian Times

From the initial team who started Romanian Times, probably financed by a "generous sponsor"...

Never knew Mr.Ciorba had blue eyes until today... Although i worked with him for a full year at AVX in Vancouver, WA, between August 1999 and August 2000... We had our times in there... I remember "Year 2000" New Year's eve when i was scheduled to work and the lights and power to all the machines went out in there at midnight and some women started to sing Christian songs... Last couple of times i saw him it was really dark, at Starbucks, and there were lots of distractions...

Customer Service

Customer service is getting worse by the day. I was really happy i had an option to chat with them as it simplifies it a lot, escpecially the identification part. However, the rest is the same. This adds up to the recent experience with RCA and Telefield. They sent me and phone through an RMA that had the same problem as the first one and a couple more.
