Песня из Comedy Club №338 (http://THT.ru/4cac2ec84d)
Авторы текста Семен Слепаков и Джавид Курбанов
Текст песни:
Я спою вам песню о моём соседе,
В целом он хороший, сука, человек
В целом он отличный и вполне приличный,
Внешнее симпатичный, сука, человек.
Радостной улыбкой он меня встречает,
Руку дружелюбно, сука, подает,
В лифте мою кнопку первый нажимает,
О здоровье близких, сука, узнает.
Он мужик рукастый и трудолюбивый,
Сам в квартире, сука, делает ремонт,
То сверлом засверлит, то пилой попилит,
Ни минуты сука, не передохнет.
А он еще в придачу семьянин отличный,
Любит он супругу восемь раз за ночь,
А когда под утро крики умолкают,
За рояль садится маленькая дочь.
Сука, сука, сука-сосед!
Сука, сука, сука-сосед!
В этой песне юмора нет
Сука, сука, сука…
Вот скажи мне добрый, вот скажи мне милый,
В целом симпатичный, сука, человек,
Что сверлить такого, можно ежедневно
В день часов двенадцать, целых восемь лет?
И как твоя супруга Зинаида Пална,
Та что в одиночку занимает лифт,
Может обеспечить этот регулярный,
Сука, еженощный сил твоих прилив?
И как твоя дочурка, нежное создание,
Что живет на свете восемь лет едва ль
Вызывать способна стойкое желанье
Запихнуть ребенку в задницу рояль?
Сука, сука, сука-сосед!
Сука, сука, сука-сосед!
Жаль я, сука, интеллигент
Сука, сука, сука…
В этой песни вывода нет!
В этой жизни выхода нет!
Сука, сука, сука…

The route of day 2 in a general Kailash kora is from Dirapuk Monastery to Dzultripuk Monastery. However, this time, I would like to show you a special day trek to the glacier of Mount Kailash on my second-day trek of Mount Kailash.
Due to the unique religious significance, Mount Kailash is unclimbable. It is a rare chance to climb up to the glacier of Mount Kailash at 5,700 meters above sea level. And this is the closest way we could see the peak of Mount Kailash.
Let’s follow our video to take the ultimate journey to the center of the world.
I started my trek at 10 a.m. from the Dirapuk Monastery Guesthouse at 5,200 meters above sea level. Finally, I arrived at the flat part of the glacier of Mount Kailash at 5,658 meters after four and a half hours of trekking.
On the way, I saw a small stream from Mt.Kailash, which is actually the source of many big and long rivers in the world, such as the Yarlung Zangbo River, the Ganges River, and the Indus River.
I saw two groups of wild Tibetan Antelopes at 5,400 meters running freely in Mount Kailash as if they were elves of the holy mountain.
Trekking above 5,400 meters above sea level became more and more difficult. Even as a Tibetan, I had to walk for two minutes and stop for a one-minute break. My heart was beating too fast and the oxygen at such altitude was too thin.
Once I reached the flat part of the glacier, the closest place one could get to the top of Mount Kailash, I couldn’t contain my excitement.
I tasted Mount Kailash. I touched Mount Kailash. I Saw Mount Kailash.
After the holy Kailash trek, I visited the Dirapuk Monastery, where you can mainly visit the original meditation cave of the great Master Milarepa. At present, there are only 6 monks taking care of this holy monastery, namely Monk Tashi and his five students.
Enjoying the northern face of the peak of Mount Kailash from Dirapuk Monastery, having some simple snacks offered by the hospitable monks…this could be a lifetime experience of your journey to Mount Kailash.
At the end of today’s sharing, I still want to remind you of a few things below:
1. If you want to do this glacier trek, you need 4 days in total, while an ordinary Kailash kora only takes 3 days.
2. Do not start your trek to the glacier before 10 a.m. for it’s too cold in the morning.
3. Please walk slowly in the mountain area for it’s too high. Even Tibetans take a long breath there.
4. Don’t forget, safety first!

Tashi Delek from the Guge Kingdom!
Today, I will show you an exploration trip to the lost kingdom in western Tibet.
The Guge Kingdom, one of the first important cultural relics sites under protection in Tibet, is a place full of stories and mysteries.
Even I am a Tibetan, every time I come here, I got a feeling of mystery.
The ancient Guge kingdom has so many mysteries and secrets. Can you imagine there used to be a kingdom with over 100,000 citizens in such a wild area? Even now, people have no idea how this beautiful kingdom was destroyed in one night. No one knows what happened here.
Where do these tunnels lead? Where are the secret ways of the winter palace?
With many questions, I explored the ruins of Guge kingdom in my way. I crossed the tunnels in the ruins, which were believed to reach the hidden city of Shambala. I climbed to the winter palace at the top of the ruins, exploring the rooms, but found nothing.
Just like playing a treasure hunt game, I was always able to find some connection to my Tibetan ancestors.
Also, the Ruins of Guge Kingdom is an awesome place for photographers to take pictures. From the top of the kingdom ruins, you can enjoy a breathtaking view of the Guge valley.
The Tholing Monastery, which is 18 kilometers away from the ruin of Guge Kingdom, is also worth a visit since it is the first monastery in west Tibet. Although it has been destroyed many times in the past, you can still see many ancient stupas, statures, morals, and so on in this old monastery.
I really recommended the ruins of the Guge Kingdom for you, which you can add to your Kailash tour.
In the end, I would like to share some tips for your trip to the Guge Kingdom.
1. Please wear a pair of comfortable hiking shoes, as you will need to climb to the top of the ruins.
2. The ruins of the Guge kingdom are heavily weathered and not very stable and fixed in some places. Please be careful not to get too close to dangerous areas such as the outer walls near the cliffs.
3. The steps inside the ruins are very steep, so please watch your step.
4. If you are interested in Tibetan history, you can learn more about the legends of the Guge Kingdom before you go. It will be more interesting to bring your own questions to find your answers about the lost kingdom.

34-year old Sgrolmamtsho married Dongrub at the age of 21 (in 1993) without experience of housework, fieldwork, and fetching wood. Filmed by her husbands younger brother, phagspadongrub, in Amdo, the film concentrates on the daily life of Tibetan village women--fetching water, feeding livestock (swine, a cow, a mule), milking, cleaning the stables, cooking, household religious activity, weeding fields, transporting manure to fields, fetching wood for fuel--along with commentary by Sgrolmamtsho about her life and family. (Rare insight into Tibetan village womens lives. Tibetan soundtrack; English subtitles. 52 minutes. Color.)
