right... im peeved.
enough people have told me .... "you'll do better"...
yeah right , like i can wait 400 years and stay unchanged for the perfect line of work to appear...like liquid mushroom dip cleaner?
enough people have told me ... "you'll find the love of your life"...
probably crawling under a pebble in a oil-slick filled pool next to a nuclear waste dump ?
i have conversations like "oh im busy with my boyfriend, but you can talk to me".
look i appreciate the fact that you pity me and all ... BUT WHY DO U SAY THAT AND THEN TALK TO ME IN ONE WORD REPLIES??
"the city has resilience and has bounced back"...
im sure the 200 people who died needlessly will appreciate your fat butt bouncing around the city.... new meaning to "resilience my ass"
"ladies coaches not guarded to search for threats to rail security".
im sure the next girl who gets assaulted in my city's trains will LOVE THAT she gave up her virtue and sanity so that resilient people dont have to bounce around.
"no more peace talks between our countries"
- FACE IT PEOPLE .... two other countries in this situation would have been pally if YOUR numbskull approach worked? ... what happens is ... one bombs the other, the other uses warplanes on the first .... and people STILL die. maybe we should just export all you b/s-strategiests to the outer wastes of Xena.
i dont have any solutions to ANY of the situations above .... thats why i am rantin like i did..

Enter The Dark Half
Cynicism is an emotion borne out by a day like 11 July '06.
how can a person be all positive and sunshiny when around us all rise the shadowy ghouls of murder from anonymity and screams and blown apart limbs?
i doubt any of the 174(officially reported) violent dismemberments ever thought of their not being able to return home that fateful evening.
i remember watching a Discovery Channel offering about Bats ....
outside their cave , where about 4 million of them live, crowded cheek to jowl above a maggotty teemy environment that eats up their young if they fall (how similar to Mumbai can we get?)...live a few sharp eyed and sharper taloned eagles.
Every morning when the bats return home, tired from their exertions on behalf of their cheepy young, these Evil Eagles (and yet Folk Lore calls them forces of good?) speed through the million strong throng ... and rip a few out of the fabric of Life.
the remaining 399,99,999 continue on with their lives .... happy (if Bats are sentient enough to be capable of such emotion) that it wasnt them.
isnt that how we are ?
the only difference is the few peoplebats who , in all the places of destruction, rushed out to help.
there remain a few dim sparks in the All Consuming Darkness.
from one of the Holy Books,
"How long, O LORD?
How long will the wicked be allowed to gloat?"

is there anything that inspires POSITIVITY anymore?
people die, either of hunger, or thirst - and everyone else is too busy scurrying away as if the proximity to Death might bring the Hand of the Dark One down on them too.
no one realises that D-man's going to come-a-calling no matter what.
this said and done , im still a spineless fool .... all words and no action. most days i disgust myself.
what is a day well spent according to the successful ones? one in which one can do the least amount of work and lick the most amount of hairy behinds (or the other kind if you got those) and then get pushed up by hot air and stinky crap. i wonder sometimes if people actually are so SOULLESS as to be not bothered by their Consciences ... while they plot such grand things as genocide , or such mundane things as showing a co-worker down.
Success, i've realised, is the amount of diarrhoeac crap pasted around your mouth and nose. atleast on planet earth.

musings on a may,midway
when you wake up in the morning, do you wonder if you are going to see the end of the day?
a lot of people have , in song thought writing and poetry often thought - "what if today was the last day of my life ?"
in this era of speed-dating and speed-employment and just plain speed .... i propose to take it a bit further. what if this is the last minute of your life ?
what would you do in this last 60 seconds that would make it the final bookend in this long bookcase?
i think of eliminating all that i wouldnt do.
what i'd probably do is - what i've been doing so long that its been sort of like second nature to me,
after all i came FROM nothing and im about to BECOME nothing ... so why bother?

- hug my parents - its too trite and formulaic , i've been doing it a lot throughout my life
- write a letter - dont know if that is going to make it through whatever wipes me out
- write an email - would anyone care to answer ?
- write a poem - it could be a bad one - who'd want to go out with bad type?
- run around like crazy - i havent done it all my life (last 12 years anyway) and why would i run around since im not supposed to know im going to end 45 seconds later?
what i'd probably do is - what i've been doing so long that its been sort of like second nature to me,
nothing!
after all i came FROM nothing and im about to BECOME nothing ... so why bother?

what indicates sentience ?
is it the ability to reason and feel ?
is it the ability to have an eye for things beyond the animal needs?
what makes me self-aware?

Angsty entries dont really do it for most people.
this place remains as devoid of visitors as my other domains.
while playing to the gallery isnt quite what i do the best...i'd like to know,
what DOES a blog visitor want to read ?
couple of hints i got
all these are VERY well done blogs, and the writers KNOW what they write.
oh and there are picture posts , these are best done by people with an unerring eye for detail.and a beautiful sense of imagery. and a good digicam/scanner.
its not performance pressure, i dont WANT to play to the gallery. all i do want to do is to be heard. even if my voice is the small, slow variety.

Ex Invisiblis
The Universe doesnt give a shit about you.
Even when people PRETEND they are interested in you, they are really not.
They'll always be way too busy to meet you - and conveniently forget to call you when they say they will. (and this isnt the person who u think is the love of your life,either - this is just some two-bit acquaintance, whom YOU have the grace to take a day off to meet)
Its all about grandstanding buddy, aint no one who cares bout you.

grim thought
some studies - (how we love to hate those!) - have observed a link between animal cruelty and serial killer behavior.
if that is true, i believe we are raising a generation of psychos.
just observe the way a LOT of kids torture some poor little kitten or pup ... and you will get my drift.
for all our sakes, i hope i am wrong.

So who IS tachyoson
...is the question i think i may have inspired in the minds of a few of my acquaintances (new and old) here on the blogosphere.
well, think of it this way...you have heard wayyyy too much from me (i bet) and i haven't heard enough from you (i KNOW)
of course everyone's busy, and i understand that one cannot keep aside 4 hours or so writing DEEP comments on every blog.
but the loss of communication is best left for another post.
the question remains : Who Am I? (not to be confused with the UNIX command of the same structure, without the ?)

musings
Thought #1:
What bores me really about my other alter-egos (more than one? thats curious) is the overdose of emotion.
sure... a bit of emotion is good. but its never a good idea to keep on wailing "Why-Me?" out to the world. nobody knows and frankly nobody cares.
Thought #2:
keeping blogging too abstract is just as bad as making it too personal.
if you make a blog too vague, people WILL and DO drift away. if you make it TOO personal, people will start flaming you , and i dont just mean hot words online, it may be the literal pants on your beehind thats being blazed off.
if you make a blog too realistic , people will get bored - no one really cares about reading the number of times you brush each side of ur teeth in the morning and at night. no one really will be interested (beyond the first few times anyways) of reading about your amoral adventures (or lack of them).
if you make it too UNrealistic - people will just not get it.
Thought #3:
After all these years, i've still not found the direction to go ... but putting smileys at the end of a blog sentence is definitely out, Captain.

Exactly how easy(or difficult) is it to spread your creativity over multiple domains?
reason i wonder is this is my third 'domain'.
maybe u will find my other two domains.
maybe like the other two you will also find a perfectlygood reason not to be here.
come walk with me a step or two. i cant guarantee the journey will be superlatively great,
but i think you won't get bored.
