Hola Osfa,

Ah ! Whenever I think of Baudrillard I remember an unusual ( and somewhat apolitical ) lecture by Jerry Brown ( former Govenor of Califormia, presidential candidate in 1992 , and now mayor of Oakland ) who related B.'s perceptions on Disneyworld in Simulacra ( ? ).

The DisneyWorld themepark was created to train everyone to think that the rest of America is Real .

Looking fwd to the excerpts from Portilla if you have time.

...

And there's a new Chomsky documentary playing in SF right now... i can't wait to see it and/ or the Thai bootleg version ; - )

And here's a little c-jam excercise to relieve the stress :
whenever you ride the subway take a corporate newspaper and scribble in your
own deconstructed headlines ... links to alternative news sources , and ( my favorite)
pig noses and ears on all the Wall Street stars.

and then leave it on the seat for the next rider.

saludos !
