MWM

Notka w miarê szybko, jak mi siê wydaje, zw³aszcza, ¿e mamy wakacje, czas rozkosznego rozleniwienia
Mam nadziejê, ¿e siê Wam spodoba. Stara³am siê, wyniki tych starañ mo¿ecie podziwiaæ (chyba podziwiaæ) poni¿ej.
Zapraszam do lektury
Zapraszam do Gabinetu Dumbledore'a (w zak³adce Ksi±¿ki), który obecnie prowadzê

****************************************************

20 pa¼dziernik, niedziela, 1991 rok

Pogoda jakby nieco siê polepszy³a. „Nieco” w Szkocji oznacza, ¿e zamiast deszczu, wichur i mrozu jest deszcz, wichura i trochê mniej mrozu z przeb³yskami promieni s³onecznych. Zawsze to o jedno rozpalenie w kominku mniej...

Korzystaj±c z uroków "piêknej" pogody wybra³em siê w podró¿ do Ministerstwa Magii. Zosta³em bowiem zaproszony za "Doroczne Wybory Najwy¿szego Maga Wizengamotu". Po raz kolejny wybrany zosta³em na Najwy¿sz± Szychê Wizengamotu lub jak to woli Wielkiego Maga Wizengamotu, aczkolwiek uwa¿am, ¿e ta pierwsza nazwa jest troszkê przyjemniejsza. Jak co roku odby³a siê z tego powodu uroczysto¶æ, na któr± zaproszono najwa¿niejsze osobisto¶ci ze ¶wiata czarodziejów. Po wymienieniu wzajemnych uprzejmo¶ci ze zgromadzonymi go¶æmi Korneliusz Knot wszed³ na mównicê i wszem i wobec og³osi³, ¿e ró¿nic± g³osów 96% do 4%:
- Nowym Wielkim Magiem Wizengamotu, czyli S±du Najwy¿szego Czarodziejów zosta³ nie kto inny, jak Albus Persival Brian Wulfryk Dumbledore (przyp. w³a¶ciwie to Albus Persival Wulfryk Brian Dumbledore, ale nie czepiajmy siê szczegó³ów)

APLAUZ

By³em mile zaskoczony. 6 raz z rzêdu, doprawdy nie do wiary, bêdê mia³ co opowiadaæ wnukom, na które ju¿ za pó¼no.
W¶ród g³osów, czy raczej - krzyków poparcia, wyszed³em na mównicê i powiedzia³em kilka s³ów do zgromadzonej rzeszy by schodz±c z podium byæ odprowadzany jeszcze g³o¶niejszymi krzykami publiczno¶ci.

Takiego typu uroczysto¶ci wi±¿± siê g³ównie z powa¿nymi rozmowami na temat równie interesuj±cy jak poprzednia paczka cytrynowych dropsów. Jednak mimo moich usilnych starañ (³agodny u¶miech i kiwanie g³ow±) nie uda³o mi siê unikn±æ rozmowy z samym ministrem. Tak siê nieszczê¶liwie z³o¿y³o, ¿e zauwa¿y³ mnie akurat gdy posila³ siê kie³baskami. Zala³ mnie takim potokiem s³ów, ¿e dociera³o do mnie co drugie. Obawiam siê jednak, ¿e nie by³o to spowodowane wolnym kojarzeniem faktów, spowodowane z klei moim sêdziwym wiekiem, a rozproszeniu uwagi widokiem prze¿uwanej ¶wini w jego ustach. Staraj±c siê nie okazywaæ mojego hm, ¿e wyra¿ê siê brzydko, obrzydzenia poprosi³em o powtórzenie wywodu. Odpowiedzia³em na jego pytania ('No wiesz Korneliuszu eee nie wiem czy zatrudnienie skrzata czy dwóch skrzatek bêdzie bardziej wydajne', 'Uwa¿am, ¿e obecna sytuacja polityczna nie ma nic wspólnego z si³ami fehg shui w twoim biurze') i sk³aniaj±c g³owê w wyrazie szacunku jak i po¿egnania opu¶ci³em mury ministerstwa na rzecz piwa w Dziurawym Kotle.

- Gratulujê Albusie! 6 raz z rzêdu, duma ro¶nie – przywita³ mnie Tom lustruj±c moj± szatê (czarna, d³uga, prosta trochê na styl mugolskich ksiê¿y – strój obowi±zkowy podczas posiedzeñ) i odznakê (b³yszcz±cy napis WMW)
- Istotnie. Móg³bym prosiæ o kufel piwa kremowego? Procentów jak na jeden wieczór wystarczy.
- Co w tym roku tak krótko? Uroczysto¶æ nie wypali³a?
- Och wiesz, za pierwszym razem by³o podekscytowanie, skok adrenaliny; za drugim zdziwienie, rado¶æ; za trzecim lekkie znu¿enie, podwy¿szone ci¶nienie; za czwartym pog³êbiaj±ce siê znu¿enie i kiwanie g³ow± na znak wzruszenia; za pi±tym jedynie kiwanie g³ow±, natomiast za szóstym zaawansowane znu¿enie i lekkie kiwanie g³ow± na znak, ¿e jestem obecny duchem na uroczysto¶ci. Nie zrozum mnie ¼le Tom, jestem dumny, ¿e po rak kolejny bêdê reprezentowaæ ¶wiat czarodziejów na zebraniach S±du Najwy¿szego, ale coroczne korowody goblinów (swoj± drog± wiesz, ¿e niedawno by³o ich ¶wiêto?), pie¶ñ "Jeste¶my wolni i niezale¿ni" w wykonaniu reprezentantów oddzia³ów ze ¦w. Munga i zachwalania swoich umiejêtno¶ci przed politycznymi rywalami mo¿e siê hm znudziæ? – Tom kiwa³ g³ow± na znak, ¿e rozumie. Zabawne jego oczy mówi³y mi ca³kowicie co innego.
- W ka¿dym razie - ci±gn±³em - Korneliuszowi zabrak³o pomys³ów na rozkrêcenie i zaciekawienie go¶ci. Gdy wychodzi³em winda dla interesantów zaciê³a siê przez przeci±¿enie, sam rozumiesz, 25 czarodziejów w 10-osobowej windzie. Widz±c mnie zaczêli siê t³umaczyæ 'Zostawi³am czajnik na gazie', 'Chyba nie zamkn±³em gara¿u', 'Dzi¶ urodziny mamusi!', 'Muszê uko³ysaæ dziecko do snu'... Co kolejne t³umaczenie to coraz bardziej absurdalne z racji tego, ¿e ci pierwsi wykorzystywali najwyra¼niej pomys³y ostatnich.
- Znam ten ból Dumbledore. Prze¿ywam to samo na urodzinach babci, która obchodzi co roku 67 urodziny. W rzeczywisto¶ci ma 90. Wyobra¿asz to sobie? Przez 37 lat muszê chodziæ na to samo przyjêcie urodzinowe!!
- Wybacz Tom - dopi³em piwo - czas wracaæ do zamku. Ju¿ 23:00 a muszê jeszcze wype³niæ ankietê dla Biura Doradczego ds. Szkodników o wdziêcznym tytule "Karaluchy (nie)pod poduchy"

Aportowa³em siê przed bramy zamkowe przy akompaniamencie trzepotu skrzyde³ wystraszonego ptactwa.

Korytarze, o tej porze puste, odbija³y ka¿dy mój krok, ka¿dy oddech, ka¿de bicie serca, ka¿d± samotn± kroplê sp³ywaj±c± po nie uszczelnionym oknie. Rozkoszowa³em siê t± cisz± przez "chwilê" nim u¶wiadomi³em sobie, ¿e stojê tak wpatruj±c siê w bli¿ej nieokre¶lon± dal przesz³o 45 minut.

Tak mnie tylko interesuje... kto to te 4%?




"Home, sweet home" jak powiedzia³ kiedy¶ pewien mugol. W wolnym t³umaczeniu "Nie ma to jak w domu". W tym momencie skorzysta³em z jednego z 45 jêzyków, które znam.

I hate shopping <a href=" http://www.blue-lemons.com/our-mission ">?levaquin mg</a> Recently, an 88-year old man (Mr. Delbert Belton) in Spokane, Wash. was brutally murdered by two black teenagers. Apparently, Mr. Belton (a white man) was simply going to a local pool hall to spend time with friends. I certainly hope that the American media (including The Day) reports on this case with the exact same ferocity as it did the Trayvon Martin case. Otherwise, I would be left to think that the media believes that racial crimes can only be committed by white persons, or that the barbaric murder of an 88-year old veteran of WWII and the Battle of Okinawa is insignificant and not newsworthy to the extent of Martin/George Zimmerman.

I'll text you later <a href=" http://www.retendo.com.pl/filmy/ ">motilium rx 10 mg dosage</a> In Zimmerman's case, State Attorney Corey stepped in and charged Zimmerman with murder on April 11, 2012.

The exchange did not say how many of those people had selected new health plans, but expects to make that data available beginning in mid-November.
