Who is Yanni?

I must say i found it very amusing when I saw some accusations of liking Yanni flying around in the previous post's comments. As I see it, you should never be ashamed to admit you like something.

Of course, this attitude always brought me some problems, as trying to be cool instead of admiting openly I was a geek, and proud of it, would have been a better strategy for making friends in highschool... Oh well, that's over now, and being a geek is very fashionable these days.

As for my position on the Yanni debate, I'm an ignorant on this matter... I have no idea how Yanni sounds. Trying to educate myself on this character, I looked it up on Google. And at the risk of being incredibly close-minded and prejudiced, the home page of his website was as far as I went. Just by looking at him, I can see where this is going, so I'm going to give it a miss this time. Sometimes, ignorance is bliss.

meet acacio jeremias
acacio jeremias website

The great visionary Acácio Jeremias finally has a website of his own and it was designed by pap-L. Acácio is a hillarious character (born out of the twisted mind of Diz Que Disse's creator, André Toscano) intent on asking the questions no one has ever though about. While we wait for his book to come out, we can enjoy his video-podcasts (the title and credit sequences were designed by pap-L as well). The first one is just out, and a few more are on the way. So go there and have a laugh! (Sorry, portuguese only...)
