Another Seemingly Meaningless Post By Val Prieto

Another seemingly meaningless post by Val Prieto. No, not the photograph of the curvaceous 1950s Tropicana dancer, that, at least, is historical in nature, or, rather, remarkable in natural history. There is no excuse for a nation filled with such women to have a declining birth rate. Except, of course, the national hecatomb that has rendered everything barren in our country.

The post to which I refer is entitled "Money for Nothing, Chicks for Free - Part Deux." The title does not deliver on its promise, as one might suppose. I thought at first that it might be yet another condemnation of remittances, which, as we all know by now, stifle the revolutionary instincts of the Cuban people by showering them with such luxuries as two meals a day. This time, however, it was not those mendicants who refuse to work for nothing on Castro's behalf that had ruffled Val's feathers.

The offenders this time were Cuban musicians who had settled in New Jersey, and lived "in a tiny, run-down apartment with a tiny, run-down kitchen, a tiny, run-down bathroom and a tiny, run-down bedroom." Now, if one did not know Val, one might suppose that this was a lament for Cubans who had fallen under the bell curve and were struggling to survive in a society that did not recognize their talents or reward them.

No such thing.

The reason these Cubans do not boast modern kitchens (that paradigm of success in this country) is that they prefer to accumulate gold jewelry, loads of it, which they proudly showed off in an old PBS documentary that caught Val's attention and appears to have wounded his sensitivities to the quick.

Ah, those ñangara musicians, even in la Yuma, prefer expensive trinkets to the rudiments of solid citizenship, such as a newly-refurnished kitchen. Of course, with gold now selling at the highest price in history, the Cuban musicians who invested their earnings in gold chains and such have reaped a mighty harvest, while those who remodelled their kitchens are begging for nails.

You're glad not to go to Church? WE are glad not to have you near! ;) The policy against Gay Marriage is not "Cuba's church" thingy, it's way what the Church is been saying anytime, since this Zapatero creep came up with the brilliant idea.

Some may stay politically correct and say "uuh, let's marry them, it's so modern" but most people that, unlike you, have values, and care to lift from bed on Sunday Morning, have a very clear picture of what defines marriage. I see you do not. And it's a pity. But after what you did to Killcastro and his family. Well... there ain't much to wait from you.

One last piece of advice: stay out of Church. They are waiting for you, down, there.

Val response

Manrique,

You're glad not to go to Church? WE are glad not to have you near!

Spoken like a true Christian.

Since apparently you have reading comprehension problems, please show me where it is that I criticized the church SOLEY AND ONLY for their protest against support for the homosexual community. I wont even get into the hypocrisy of the Catholic Church vis a vis homosexuality.

I criticized the church for their inaction and self-censorship regarding the abuses to human rights in Cuba. Mum's the word on that, but have a little gay pride parade and teh cuban catholic Church is all over it.

Absurd, hypocritical, ridiculous and UNCHRISTIAN.

Id also appreciate it if you refrain from speading rumor and innuendo, bordering on libel, on this blog or you will be banned. if you believe Killcastro or his family were hurt on account of any action I took, then I got a couple of bridges here in Miami for sale, dirt cheap.

Comemierda.

Manny:

the problem is that Val has become useless. His cadre of writers, even the worst of them are superior to him. He is left posting 1950 beauty queen pictures and writing vulgarities or chivatiando other bloggers.

Go finish your kitchen Valentin.

Manuel A.Tellechea said...

I can only imagine how many times Val has been called to task on Babalú for the outing of Killcastro. The occasional critic who manages to insert a comment past its praetorian guard must represent hundreds of readers and commenters. Now that the Killcastro blog is off the air its loss, whether temporary or not, is being laid at Val's doorstep. This burden of guilt is obviously getting to him.

Vieron a Fantomas en Cuba marchando por el orgullo gay

Anonymous said...

gordo eso es mentira, la marcha de orgullo gay fue abortada por la seguridad del estado. Los patos lideres de la marcha fueron apresados en sus casas y no pudieron salir. Las brigadas de respuesta rapida y la brigada de palestinos santiagueros tomaron el parque de donde se supone saldria la manifestacion

y mariela Castro? que dira ahora?

Lmfao Manuel:

While those who remodlled their kitchen are begging for nails, funny line.

We recently met a Cuban band that crossed the border at Tijuana with all their instruments, at first they were all sharing a little apartment in San Diego, yes they went out and bought all those things Cubans are hungry for, now they all have a career here in LA they all own their homes, Cubans are hungry for more than food, they hunger for all the things the world has to offer, I don't blame them one bit, I'm happy for them.

A little anecdote on this racist country, the two white boys in the band were given immediate asylum, the four black Cubans were arrested though later released.

NOTICIA DE ULTIMA HORA

Fidel castro participara en los Juegos Olympicos de Beijing.

Con razon nunca se quito el uniforme Adiddas

Con razon chavez siempre dijo que fidel corria por los valles y montañas de Cuba de noche

Se especula que participara en el maraton de Beijing

Otros dicen que competira en la carrera de 11O metros con vallas

Tambien le ofrecieron ser cargabates del equipo de Beisbol

En que deporte crees que fidel pude ayudar a cuba a conseguir una medalla

Manuel A.Tellechea said...

On a trip to Puerto Rico, Joe García had a 15-minute meeting with fantomas. They have formed what appears to be an Anti-Babalú Alliance. Fantomas is now supporting García's candidacy for Congress despite being a staunch Republican. Also, despite being a staunch Republican, he is supporting Barack Obama for president and hopes to have a 15-minute tête-à-tête with him next time he visits Puerto Rico (which will probably be in 2012).

Actually it was 15 minutes one on one but it lasted over 4 hours

Angel,
Manuel is a great believer in the maxim to let someone make us think he is a fool, and then to confirm it by reading what comes out of his mouth. (or in this case, his keyboard)
In the case of this person that tests his patience daily, it suits him to a tee. Everytime he does open his mouth, and types on the keyboard, he confirms what we all already suspect.
