Al carajo
19 de Noviembre, 2010   23:55

El sábado pasado participé con unos amigos en una regata de veleros; ya habíamos hecho alguna que otra el año pasado, pero ese sábado participábamos en la categoría con Spinaker, que es una vela que parece un globo y que es algo jodidilla de montar, sobre todo cuando no lo has hecho nunca. Y nosotros, por falta de tiempo, no lo habíamos hecho nunca, así que nos pasó lo que nos tenía que pasar: liamos una buena y se nos escapó el cabo que une la parte superior de la vela al mástil, y aunque afortunadamente no hubo daños materiales y no nos cargamos nada, ya no pudimos utilizar la vela en toda la regata y llegamos de los últimos (bueno, concretamente los últimos :O)

Luego resulta que RBK, esta mañana, me envía un powerpoint muy ilustrativo explicando qué es un carajo, (véase, la parte alta del mástil dónde se subían los marineros a vigilar si llegaban a tierra) y a su vez, esta tarde habíamos quedado mi amigo Arturo y yo (sí, el también se llama así ;) en su barco para arreglar el desastre que habíamos hecho la semana pasada. Uno de los dos se tenía que subir al tope de mástil, y como yo pesaba 10 kilos menos que él me tocó a mí subir hasta arriba, que aunque es algo incómodo tiene unas vistas alucinantes. Encima pudimos arreglar lo que estaba “desarreglado” y nos quedó un buen rato para navegar por la bahía y probar el Spinaker (aprovechando para aprender a montarlo) por lo que finalmente fue una tarde muy entretenida.

Así que no solo puedo decir que me mandaron al carajo, sino que además fui e incluso volví ;)

Les habló un tiíllo, hoy, desde el carajo ;)

Judah, one of the 12 tribes of Israel, descended from Judah, who was the fourth son born to Jacob and his first wife, Leah. It is disputed whether the name Judah was originally that of the tribe or the territory it occupied and which was transposed from which.



|After the Israelites took possession of the Promised Land, each was assigned a section of land by Joshua, who had replaced Moses as leader after the latter’s death. The tribe of Judah settled in the region south of Jerusalem and in time became the most powerful and most important tribe. Not only did it produce the great kings David and Solomon but also, it was prophesied, the Messiah would come from among its members. Modern Jews, moreover, trace their lineage to the tribes of Judah and Benjamin (absorbed by Judah) or to the tribe, or group, of clans of religious functionaries known as Levites. This situation was brought about by the Assyrian conquest of the Kingdom of Israel in 721 bc, which led to the partial dispersion of the 10 northern tribes and their gradual assimilation by other peoples. (Legends thus refer to them as the Ten Lost Tribes of Israel.)|The southern Kingdom of Judah thrived until 587/586 bc, when it was overrun by the Babylonians, who carried off many of the inhabitants into exile. When the Persians conquered Babylonia in 538 bc, Cyrus the Great allowed the Jews to return to their homeland, where they soon set to work to replace the magnificent Temple of Jerusalem that the Babylonians had destroyed. The history of the Jews from that time forward is predominantly the history of the tribe of Judah.
