"32 casinos, 70 hoteles, 232 restaurantes, unos 500 comercios, un hipódromo, un campo de golf y varios parques de atracciones y museos, en una superficie superior a 2.000 hectáreas" eso es lo que quieren construir el Gobierno de Aragón e International Leisure Development en Los Monegros.
Por si alguien lo desconoce (aparte del Gobierno de Aragón e ILD), Los Monegros es un desierto.
Tras dar la noticia, los promotores y los medios falderos se felicitan, porque dará muchos empleos, y traerá turismo y blablabla.
No se han parado a pensar que todos esos burdeles los tendrán que construir sin bidés, con lo desagradable que eso acaba siendo al cabo de un par de días. Y que los cubatas los tendrán que poner sin hielo, también.
Un despropósito, vaya.
Una mala noticia para media tarde, Terry Pratchett padece Alzheimer.

Folks,
I would have liked to keep this one quiet for a little while, but because of upcoming conventions and of course the need to keep my publishers informed, it seems to me unfair to withhold the news. I have been diagnosed with a very rare form of early onset Alzheimer's, which lay behind this year's phantom "stroke".
We are taking it fairly philosophically down here and possibly with a mild optimism. For now work is continuing on the completion of Nation and the basic notes are already being laid down for Unseen Academicals. All other things being equal, I expect to meet most current and, as far as possible, future commitments but will discuss things with the various organisers. Frankly, I would prefer it if people kept things cheerful, because I think there's time for at least a few more books yet.

PS I would just like to draw attention to everyone reading the above that this should be interpreted as 'I am not dead'. I will, of course, be dead at some future point, as will everybody else. For me, this maybe further off than you think - it's too soon to tell.
I know it's a very human thing to say "Is there anything I can do", but in this case I would only entertain offers from very high-end experts in brain chemistry.
¿Por qué todo el mundo dice que las series españolas son una mierda? ¿Por qué las series británicas tienen tan buena fama?
Porque se atreven a hacer cosas como esto:
Y eso es todo, porque la serie fue cancelada después del primer episodio. Igual que la serie aquella de las enfermeras en Antena 3, pero con más dignidad...
