Last night, when the baby was sleeping, my wife climbed up to my studio, it's in the second floor of our house. I was working with a drawing which features a blonde girl sliding in a playgroud and text Protege el norte, los españoles nos amenazan (Protect the North, the Spaniards threaten us). Though my Spanish wife is not too patriotic (she didn't even watch the sad World Cup knockout game against Les Bleus) she was upset.

My patria Finland joined European Union in 1995. The Finns were scared of people coming from Southern Europe to Finland for the socialdemocratic wellfare system. In Finland you can survive without working, the society takes care of the weak and the lazy. But nobody came. Last year, the Finns were panicing again, the European Union was extended to Eastern Europe and Finland enacted a law to close the borders from the citizens of the new EU countries. But nobody wanted to come.

Spain is receivingmore immigrants at the moment than any other European country. They speak here about an avalancha of immigrants, suprisingly also in the liberal newspaper El País. I think avalanche is a negative word, in the nature it's something dangerous to the people.

I'm making a drawing where a dog waiter serves beer and sausages behind a fence with Spain written on it. The text under the image says Los moros amenazan las cañas de Pepe. Don't ask me to translate it. It's made for Madrid!

I finally got the flights to Tokyo. I'm going there 5th Decmeber and coming back 5th February. Raul asked me to go to Miami and do something during Art Basel but I can't be in two places at the same time.

Cecilia has put a link from her website to my site. I don't have links but I included her in my dream team. Unfortunately, this makes me think Real Madrid's Fabio Capello. He's a true capullo. Let's see what happens tonight in Bucharest. On Sunday, against Getafe, they didn't shoot once and, naturally, lost. Capello/Capullo said that he likes most in Spain the heritage of Franco. Franco wasn't a looser but a capullo.

I've been dusting my books and organising the library the whole weekend. Now I'm going to finish the prostitution drawings for the show Raul curates in Wroclaw and the immigration drawings for the Muestra de Arte in Madrid. The problem is that the big paintings I'm doing terrify me but I've been really kind with my wife and she promised to paint me one more (she painted one already).

Then I got an idea of a sculpture. It will be a replica of a home made rocket launcher used against the Catalan police force in Barcelona last week. The missiles used were ordinary fireworks rockets in their colorful party wrapping.

A disastrous night in the football Euro Cup qualifying: Finland's game against a weak Armenia ended a draw 0-0 but even worse occured, Sweden humilitated Spain in Stockholm 2-0. That game had a double edge for me, I'm semi-Spanish and Sweden's defeat would always a triumph for Finns.

This morning our new Romanian cleaning lady came and I felt very bourgeois, I have never had anybody cleaning my home. My wife was in Cuenca and I had a great day with my daughter but I'm happy she went to bed before the shameful game began. I should have immigrated to a country that has a decent national football team, like Italy. Or Sweden.
