English version:
One: Sometimes I am feeling unhappy and then I am thinking I would be much better in any other place, other than this one, Acapulco for example, instead of this damn desert.
Two: That is what is called "wanting to escape from your own shadow". If you try to escape, what you are actually doing is moving your problems from one place to another.
Three: Mmm, that is a good advice. I hadn't looked at it that way. Thank you master.
Four: Mmmm, Acapulco...

Feliz Día de los Inocentes :-)

English version:
One: Hi Alfredo, how are you doing with "War and Peace"?
Two: Mmm, well. It's a strange book, sometimes it is too heavy for me. Seems I am never getting through it...
Three:... and I also have the impression that some parts are repeated, it's a bit strange.
Four: That use to happen when somebody is changeing your bookmarked page now and then, hehehe.

Dedicado a James Brown y su música (1933-2006).

Traducción/translation: Kristina Niesel

English version:
One: I feel so sad!
Two: I would like the whole world to cry with me
Three:
Four: Thanks.

Traducción/translation: Kristina Niesel

English version:
One: I have to admit this blade of grass impresses me... so colourful, so vital. Seems it's smiling and dancing with the morning breeze...
Two: No doubt, the most valuable things in life are those that cost nothing, those that we have just in front of us but we don't even notice.
Three:
Four: Gone with the wind! Our deepest convictions are so fragile!

Just a little patience...

Un mensaje de paciencia para los lectores anglófonos. Intento conservar una frecuencia de publicación más o menos constante pero no todas las tiras pueden ser traducidas instantáneamente. Kristina, nuestra simpática y desinteresada traductora, hará lo posible por traducirlas al inglés en cuanto su tiempo y ánimo se lo permitan. Gracias por su paciencia.

Bruno recomienda...

Vol.1 Melancolía
Para estados carenciales de optimismo, cuando la tristeza te abruma y las lágrimas afloran:

1. Gary Jules - "Mad World"
2. Antony & The Johnsons - "Hope There's Someone"
3. Tarnation - "Two Wrongs Won't Make Things Right"
4. Spain - Untitled #1
5. Tom Waits - Georgia Lee

English version:
One: Don't be silly, Bruno. To go on a picnic you need a meadow or a park...
Two: ...thickly foliaged trees, shadow, singing birds and a river. Do you see anything of that here?
Three:
Four: Well, we ain't short of ants, are we?

Traducción/translation: Kristina Niesel

Two: How many... hic!... stars do you think are there, Bruno?

English version:
One: Let the big fancy dress party begin! Are you ready Bruno? - Yes, I am. - Ehem, here I go!
Two:
Three: Honestly...
Four: I don't know whether to laugh or cry.

Alberto Garcia’s comic strip Alfredo y Bruno is about life seen through the eyes of a dog abandoned in an old Mexican gas station. Alberto promises that it will soon be translated into English, but until then I’m happy just to look at the illustrations. His deceptively simple drawings are examples of brilliant cartooning.

One: Alfredo, what does ambition mean?

Two: Ambition? Mmm...

Three: Well, no. What did it say?
Four: California or die.

Traducción/translation: Kristina Niesel

English version:
One: I just received my new ukulele sent from Hawaii by air mail. That was about a time!
