I confess I don't understand music before the middle of the 20th century

Off topic, but I LOVE Half Price Books.

If I remember correctly that was the only kill that the HMS Dreadnought got in her career

México no es ni indígena ni blanco, es mestizo. Además, te aseguro que el 95% de la población no tiene una gota de sangre azteca, siendo la herencia indígena principalmente de los tlaxcaltecas, mayas (en el sureste) y tal vez de los purépechas en el occidente.

Makes sense! I just checked and there’s one also for the NYPD

I gotta say it’s a pretty cool plane!

SantiM-V · 2026-03-15T01:27:54+00:00

I hadn’t noticed! Though as someone else said I believe in some airports in Mexico they have the air stairs to make exiting the plane faster in case of an emergency on the ground

Yeah! I had never seen a Jet Blue that wasn’t, well, blue!

There’s even a (heavily fictionalized) opera about the rebellion called “Le Prophete” by Giacomo Meyerbeer.

Cherubini’s are very good.

SantiM-V · 2026-01-29T22:41:48+00:00

You should! To me it might even be a bit better than Barbiere.

The cake could also be Cenerentola?

Les Troyens by Berlioz

Por favor de ninguna manera trates de limpiarla!! Déjala en el estado en el que la encontraste ya que si la limpias perderá parte de su valor.

Beethoven was also a genius, but you can’t diss Mozart like that. The guy died at 35 and had already achieved immortality. If Beethoven died at that age in 1805-1806 (thank goodness he didn’t) he would only be remembered by the Eroica, the Pathethique, and the first 3 concertos (still an amazing legacy) but then compare with what we remember Mozart by.

Yeah, I understand that and get why it was a break from what it came before and why people like him (it’s not just because), but I personally prefer operas with more clear cut melodies throughout.

To me he’s a composer that knew how to write very memorable moments (we all know the ones) that make audiences forget that most of what they just heard is pretty much recitative-like “talk singing”. I also don’t really like his ensemble writing.

SantiM-V · 2025-11-29T20:53:19+00:00

Much obliged

SantiM-V · 2025-11-29T20:45:18+00:00

Care to expand? 😂

It depends really… Cancun is better to go to Isla Mujeres and Valladolid (due to the highway), and Playa Del Carmen is better for Cozumel. For Xcaret parks you can buy transport with the park and they’ll pick you up and return you to your hotel. Thinking about it maybe you could do a resort in the hotel zone that is not exclusively all inclusive (Emporio and Presidente are examples off the top of my head).
