Fausto drags Marc to the Puerto Rican Pride celebration in Humbolt Park, Chicago Illinois, and it totally sucked. Michael Jackson celebrates getting off, celebrities who do gay things, and a special Fathers Day phone call with Fausto's father who lives in Puerto Rico, Gonzalo Fernós.
UPDATE: Read the exended entry for a translation of the song that my dad sings.
You can buy cookie cutters in the shape of the island of Puerto Rico.

A PRECIOUS MORNING (Una Preciosa Manana)
Puerto Rican folk song, sung by my father Gonzalo Fernós, age 84.
Literal translation of the words by Fausto Fernós.
One precious morning, from the month of April,
[Una preciosa mañana, de las del mez de Abril]
I heard from my bed, that somebody said this:
[Oí desde mi cama, que alguien dijo asi:]
Wake up early, and come over here to me
[Levantaté temprano, y ven a donde a mi]
The morning is delightfully fresh, stop sleeping.
[La mañana esta fresca, deja de dormir.]

Everything has been acting really strange on MT and the SQL databases. If anyone knows anything about all this stuff, please help me out!

There was some Puerto Rican Pride action going in Greenpoint Brooklyn -- so I think it happens outside of CHI. Flags on cars, honking, bbqs etc...
great show.

ps why is the fof-site so deadslow in firefox? (hate to tell that it is fast in ie)

Krispijn– I have no idea why the site is so ridiculously slow on firefox... probably bad code. Right now the uberwonder designer Christina and I are working on redesigning the website and making new feeds (main one, podcast only, videocast only, photos only)
We're also going to start putting together some new segments starting in July, so keep your peepers open for those, they are going to TOTALLY rock.
If you have any suggestions, ideas, desires for the show or the website, now's the time to make the requests!

Yes, finally old age has beaten the mean out of him... but I've heard from my family in PR that he's just as wicked as ever.

That WAS the sweetest Fathers Day call ever. Merry Christmas everyone! :D
