De curiosidade alheia

Lygia, minha amiga, me perguntou de onde surgiram os contos de fadas. De bate pronto, respondi que eram antigos, lah pelos idos de 1600 e que um dos autores conhecidos era o Hans Andersen, o dinamarques que escreveu A Pequena Sereia, a Rainha da Neve, o Patinho Feio. Lembrava tambem dos Irmaos Grimm, que contaram a historia de Joao e Maria e mais um monte de gente. E que o Peter Pan, tambem conhecido como contos de fadas, era uma peca inglesa do inicio do seculo passado. Mas e o resto? Eh pra essas e outras que serve o Google.
Uma das paginas que encontrei dizia que os contos de fadas eram contos de dominio popular, sem origem, comeco, meio e fim. Esses autores nao fizeram nada mais nada menos do que escrever o que jah fazia parte da literatura da lingua falada, com excecao para Andersen, que era mesmo criativo e inventou muitas delas.
Descobri um site muito bacana, o www.andersenfairytales.com que conta a historia e as estorias de Andersen. Foi lah que descobri que o pai dele era sapateiro e que ele nasceu em 1805! Ele era pobre, alto, magro(de tanta fome que passou), tinha um narigao e era muito feio(vai ver foi por isso que inventou a historia do Patinho) e era tambem cantor, ator e escritor. Seu primeiro livro foi publicado em 1835 e fez muito sucesso.
O proprio site tem um link para a pagina dos Irmaos Grimm(www.grimmfairytales.com) que conta que os pimpolhos eram dois alemaes, Jacob e Wilhelm, esses nada pobres(o pai era advogado). Os dois filhos de peixe seguiram os passos do pai e foram para a faculdade de Direito. Lah comecaram a colecionar os contos folcloricos e publicaram o primeiro livro com 86 contos em 1812. Os dois eram muito unidos e juntos publicaram mais de 200 contos, sendo considerados ateh hoje um dos maiores escritores da Alemanha. O site conta ainda que os dois foram professores da Universidade de Berlin. Procurei no site da universidade(www.tu-berlin.de/eng) e nada achei.

Please read the following Announcement in its Entirety and Consider the Possibilities�

IFLH announces Senator David Cain has joined its Board of Directors!!

IFLH volume trading is beginning to surge with landslide Announcement. The value of this
stock appears poised for growth! This one should not remain on the ground floor for long.

BREAKING NEWS!!
InterFinancial Holdings, Corp. (OTC Pink Sheets: IFLH - News) announced that they have added
David Cain to their board of directors. David Cain is currently the Chairman of the advisory
board to TTI (Texas Transportation Institute). Senator Cain represented Senate District 2 for
eight years in the Texas Senate and Chaired the Senate State Affairs Subcommittee on
Transportation and served nine terms in the Texas House of Representatives for District 107.

During his twelve years as Chairman of the House Committee on Transportation, Senator Cain�s
efforts on behalf of the people of Texas have been widely recognized. He was named to Texas
Monthly Magazine�s list of Ten Best Legislators, the Dallas Morning News said he was one of
the outstanding legislators of the 73rd session, and the Texas Department of Transportation
awarded him the Russell H. Perry Award in 1995 for his efforts to gain public awareness of
the need for and benefits of transportation facilities in the State of Texas.

Jeffrey C. Bruteyn, Managing Director, stated, We at InterFinancial are proud to have such a
widely recognized Senator join our board and oversee out automotive lending division. His
affiliations and connections to the automotive industry will be invaluable to our company.
Senator Cain will be instrumental in expediting our approval to use a government issued Seller
Finance License.

Seller Finance Licenses are very difficult to obtain and are usually reserved for the Big Boys
with heavy lobbyists. These licenses are highly coveted because it allows the finance company
to collect the entire down payment, instead of paying a portion of it to the taxing authority.
This dramatically helps a finance company�s bottom line if the buyer defaults on the loan.

With the new GPS tracking systems being installed on every car to dramatically improve
repossessions and with Senator Cain on the Board of Directors, InterFinancial Holdings
is ready to take their business to the next level.

Conclusion:

The examples above show the Awesome, Earning Potential of little known Companies
That Explode onto Investor�s Radar Screens. This stock will not be a Secret for long.
Then You May Feel the Desire to Act Right Now! And Please Watch This One Trade!!
GO IFLH!
