Have you ever been involved in an accident?
Once I was backing home after work driving my car at night. My brother was riding in the car with me. Suddenly we saw a man lying on the road. He was dead. There was blood on the road. Two women were out side the road asking for help and there was a car parked outside. I swerved to avoid running him over. I was calmed but my brother was crying. We went to the police station and told them what had happened. They already know that. That had happened a few minutes before we go past it.

The was created in Germany in 1860 by Alfred Arnold for the churches didn't have organ.
It's a wind instrument. It has 37 bottoms in a side and 33 bottoms in the other side. Each bottoms produce a different sound opening and closing. The immigrants brought a lot of bandoneons between 1870 and 1920. The musicians incorporated this instrument to the tango. Today it's the most used instrument in the tango.
Roberto Garzón started to play bandoneon when he was twelve years old. His mother loved this. Today Roberto is seventy seven. He likes tango and he loves his instrument.

What is "milonga "?
Milonga is a place where people dance Tango.
At the milonga the couples dance in a simpler way and not so acrobatic than professional dancers . It's consists in making some shorter steps and walking elegantly without raising the legs.
All the couples dance in the same direction . It's counterclockwise. Then man is a leader and drive the woman .
Sometimes it's like a congested traffic so the man has to swing in the same place in order to avoid stepping out another couple's feets.
The man invites to dance to the lady making a gesture called "cabeceo ". It's something like that (I do it) . If the lady wants to dance so they go to the dance floor . But if she doesn't want to dance so she looks to another place.

Bandoneon
[ ] The bandoneon, was originally intended as an instrument for religious and popular music of the day, in contrast to its predecessor, more folk music inclined German concertina.
Around 1870, German and Italian emigrants and sailors brought the instrument to Argentina, where it was adopted into the nascent genre of tango music. By 1910 bandoneons were being produced expressly for the Argentine and Uruguayan markets, with 25,000 shipping to Argentina in 1930 alone. However, declining popularity and the disruption of German manufacturing in World War II led to an end of bandoneon mass-production.

I am not vegetarian
I like to eat chicken and fish so much. I love beef. I think that is not bad to eat those. The fruits and vegetables are good food. The pastas are so tasty but beef is better to me. The vegetarian food is not well for me and I don't like vegetarian diet.

I don't like watch tv
I don't like watch tv. I think this is a lost time. I prefer read a book, play guitar or play some game with my daugthers. My parents watched tv all the time. They were watching tv at lunch time while they were eating. They were watching tv at bed time. They had a small tv in the bedroom. I don't know if that is right. I want to be a good father and husband. I want to have a happy family. I think we can't to be completly happy unless we don't have time for our children and wife.
