Brian "Damage" Rockatansky


Fuerte, muy fuerte, con esa fuerza de mogólico vieron? Brian es la única esperanza de los sobrevivientes del holocausto nuclear.
Es lo que había.
Algunos datos, es fanático de los pandas y su sueño es tener un panda.

Would you believe?


On New Year's Eve, one of Lucas's processors just stopped working. I was wondering why he kept trying to adjust it, and then I noticed that the light had stopped blinking. I tried to trouble shoot in various ways, but I had no success getting it to turn on again. Luckily, he has a back-up processor, so it wasn't really that big of a deal.

So, I called Cochlear today, since today is the first business day since it stopped working. Last time I called (over the summer), they found his name in a jiffy. Tonight the rep kept asking me further questions, like which implant center he uses. She then explained that there is someone else with the same name in our state! Who would have imagined! I mean, there are only 188,000 cochlear implants in the world. But someone very close to home shares the same first and last name as Lucas AND also has a Cochlear brand cochlear implant. Somehow I think that's pretty unbelievable.

I guess I didn't do a good enough job of giving him a less common name... hehehe! Wouldn't it be fun for Lucas to meet this person someday?

Post-Apocalypse Now


En las películas del orden de lo Post-Apocalíptico (osea después de una guerra nuclear, tipo Mad Max) el protagonista, el elegido que llevara a la humanidad hacia un nuevo amanecer, es siempre un tipo fuerte, ágil, carismático, perceptivo y sobre todo inteligente.
Buenisimo, pero siempre me pregunté como seria si en cambio los sobrevivientes de un holocausto nuclear dependiéramos de un tipo tipo fuerte, considerablemente ágil, no muy carismático, muy poco perceptivo, pero sobre todo retardado.
Finalmente volqué la idea al papel y he aquí a Brian, el primo idiota de Max Rockatansky.
