Francesco Schettino – Premium Marine Joke

Well, what I can say for Mr. Schettino, the infamous captain of the Costa Concordia cruise ship who hit bottom and overturned the cruise ship off the Italian coast. I do not know what to say other than say that I am a bit disappointed at myself; yes me, because by finishing an essay I could have indirectly predicated that such thing could happen again under an Italian captain, unfortunately that essay isn’t done. In that essay I explain why Italy produces “some of” the best and worst captain around.

Sure they have good captains, the country is surrounded by water, due to this going back into history books will reveal the huge implication of Italian explorers, all countries hired them, surpassing Portugal, France and Spain and only the British have done better in terms of exceptional navigators and service rendered.

However, the same factor that yields many good captains, also yield potential unqualified people into the navy that simply can’t handle high pressure moments. And this is not new story, in World War 2 German military papers, which were observations by German officers, have reported negative behavior from some Italian units operating along Germans, where Italian seaman were not disciplined and where in many occasion surrendered under light situations and/or avoided confrontation all together. How Francesco Schettino reacted was just a “possible” repeat of history, predictable as I said earlier.

However, let’s remember the opposite is true, some of the greatest captains were Italian and the balance is still in Italian favor for good captains out there. Even Francesco Schettino made a decent move under the circumstance as he turned the ship around to avoid the deep, imagine the disaster then. That he did it fast enough or not, the good direction or not, it’s not important at this point, the ship will not float, what matters is why he abandoned ship so fast (to early for the real reasons), as I love to analyze behaviors to form correlations, one of the most powerful tool of the brain for reasoning impartially. ;)

Francesco Schettino, you couldn’t hit water even if you fell from a boat

Human Behavior – The Ladies

When we think about human behavior as a whole, we can clearly observe in daily life how we react to banal things such as the opposite sex. It is so anchored in our DNA that no amount of education, prestige, religious belief or even the moment and seriousness of an affair, can sway away a human to behave like nature took its course to do.

However, does this link with nature explain why countless men cannot think and behave in front of people? Do I need to ask the women to hide themselves? Should I blame them for tempting my look and fantasize? Of course not, it’s all in our mind, because if you look, you imagine, if you imagine you may do, say or act inadequately, making you look at times as the men on these images and we have a laugh. :)

(Take note some images are not related to the topic but simply perfect pose for the topic, the rest it is what it is. lol )

When a Superstitious Mind Thinks Out Loud

Another grim Funny Edits, but hey! it’s all about that…

The other day when I opened my regular news webpage I read a few funny lines, and here are the 3 to keep in mind;

- “USA might be responsible for cancers affecting Latin American leaders
- “Would it be strange if they had developed the technology to induce cancer?
- “difficult to explain using the law of probabilities

All these sentences were made by Hugo Chavez, the president of Venezuela, a beautiful and capable country, north of Brazil in South America.

Nightfear – Feat. Obama

American People, Do Not See Their Work or Know Their Names

From a Canadian citizen to the world, a little memory of 2011, a moment to not forget just as much as 9/11, since it marks the year where the United States finally caught up to Osama Bin Laden and justice was served. This was not only an American affair but a world affair, as many nationalities lost their lives in the twin towers plane crash, fire and collapse. I underline this event my way, seriously and thoughtfully, because sometimes we do not have other ways to help or say thank you.

As for the Anti-Obama out there, using Obama’s voice is pure coincidence, as it could have been Bush, Clinton or Ron Paul if he was already in power and made similar speech, thus it is not about the messenger but simply the message. We have to give credit to Obama for his nice deep tone making it much more 21st century. :)
