The real use for cellphones

Besides singing loudly where others can hear, have you ever dared to think out loud? Start a long conversation with yourself? Nowdays it's possible: just get an old defunct cellphone and an earphone. Sit in the park with the cellphone in your lap and say anything you want, right out loud. Nobody will care. (Just don't dare to try this WITHOUT an obvious cellphone and headset!) Hmmm. Even better. Just wear a headset alone, but with the plug dangling loose in your lap. Passersby will assume that you have a cellphone. But perhaps one or two will look more closely, realize that no cellphone is involved, then suddenly stop smiling. And back away from you carefully.

WHY SMOKE????

Here is a really cool alternative to smoking...

Face a light source such as a bare light bulb. Tightly close you lips. Fill your cheeks with air partially, breathe normally through your nose, then fiercely tense your cheeks and lips while blowing to compress the air inside. (It helps if you push fingers on your lips to keep air from spurting out.) Now relax your cheeks, part your lips, and spit the air out very slowly. (Don't breathe out, instead spit the air out with cheeks and tongue.) Smoke! Fog comes out of your mouth. It's just like the fog in the neck of a freshly opened bottle of cola. This works great in the dark with a flashlight.

Romance??

naaaaaaah not my kinda muzik but I recently bought this double CD compilation of old folksy songs....this one is the most romantic song ever written I'd say and to add to that sung by JOHN DENVER....

Annie's Song
John Denver

You fill up my senses
Like a night in a forest
Like the mountains in springtime
Like a walk in the rain
Like a storm in the desert
Like a sleepy blue ocean
You fill up my senses
Come fill me again

Come let me love you
Let me give my life to you
Let me drown in your laughter
Let me die in your arms
Let me lay down beside you
Let me always be with you
Come let me love you
Come love me again

You fill up my senses
Like a night in a forest
Like the mountains in springtime
Like a walk in the rain
Like a storm in the desert
Like a sleepy blue ocean
You fill up my senses
Come fill me again

you just can't not appreciate this one!!!

Stuck in a moment?

Back to the single most important thing in life...MUZIK....can't live without it.....can't stand the BAD STUFF!!!

I love rock n metal but don't mind the old stuff like cat steavens or kishore or rafi for that matter....love the boss(both springstein and R.D.Burman) but this piece is about the shitty stuff....

Ever had an experience when there is this absolutely lovely song you just can't remember.....it is like it is stuck to tip of your tounge but you just can't get yourself to get hold of the details....there is nothing more irritating right??? naaaaaaah...there is something even worse....

You are listening to muzik on your walky or PC or take your pick.....somehow the playlist has this absolutely shitty song on it...and being the lazy being(cool huh!) you are you say what the hell let it play....ok no harm done.....now remove the ear phones, something is bothering you.....what the hell you have this insane urge to hum some song....who cares?? go ahead and the master piece that comes out is that shitty song......of the 250 odd songs on your playlist this was the only one that is stuck in your headspace!!!!! AAAAAAAAA HELP!!!!!!!!!!!! typically the song would be an ANU MALIK creation like that god forsaken...It's rainin, it's rainin...or i think it was JHANJARIA from GOPI KISHEN, yeah that was it....but it is not like I am puting down hindi muzik there are tonnes of such songs that suck in pop.ALL OF THE TEEN POP STARS a la spears, aguilera, enrique.......but what to do the "HUMAN" brain is a funny thing.....it will only cling to things that won't make sense......MURPHY, I AM GONNA KICK YOUR ASS!!!!!!!!!!!

Mr Murphy SUX

I am usually the odd man out in any group you would like to place me into...
so basically I am a wierdo....searchin for me....whatever that means..

What does that mean??? I am some how under the impression that I am just another guy who becuse is himself is wierd...wierd?? ok ne way no introspection..the point is some how rules don't work for me.....naaaaah I'm not a rebel, it is just that I don't get pissed by the usual stuff, am indifferent to most of the things, if I don't like you you will not exist for me, I hate remixes, love rock and metal, like to be different but also don't want the spotlight.....ne way so where does MURPHY come into this mess???

what I meant by rules were the usual things by which people swear by.....lucky charms, best friends, relationships these things don't work with me the only thing that works with me is Mr MURPHY's law.....whatever can go wrong(in the conventional sense) will, but since the conventional thing is not working for me MURPHY screws up the things that should work otherwise coz they are not normal and because of the double negative MURPHY is screwing up the wierd stuff AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA....
so, basically after another usual day with none of the usual things messed up and fuuking up the wierd stuff(making the wierd stuff wierder) it doesn't matter....so Mr MURPHY carry on with your entertainment, It is just making my list of extra curricular activities much more interesting.....so basically whatever is going on was supposed to. LET'S PLAY BALL!!!! M ready!!!

Gyan from Feynman..and how true...

I listened to a conversation between two girls, and one was explaining that if you want to make a straight line, you see, you go over a certain number to the right for each row you go up--that is, if you go over each time the same amount when you go up a row, you make a straight line--a deep principle of analytic geometry! It went on. I was rather amazed. I didn't realize the female mind was capable of understanding analytic geometry.

She went on and said, "Suppose you have another line coming in from the other side, and you want to figure out where they are going to intersect. Suppose on one line you go over two to the right for every one you go up, and the other line goes over three to the right for every one that it goes up, and they start twenty steps apart," etc.--I was flabbergasted. She figured out where the intersection was. It turned out that one girl was explaining to the other how to knit argyle socks. I, therefore, did learn a lesson: The female mind is capable of understanding analytic geometry. Those people who have for years been insisting (in the face of all obvious evidence to the contrary) that the male and female are equally capable of rational thought may have something. The difficulty may just be that we have never yet discovered a way to communicate with the female mind. If it is done in the right way, you may be able to get something out of it.

THE INITIATION

If you know me you know that I am a music buff, well if u don't know me...I am a music buff ;)...ne way the other day I was going through my collection (pretty huge one :)) and saw this old BonyM tape lyin around....that is what started this thought process....

Well my dad used to listen to music pretty often....one of his friends had come over and he had this new (happening i guess :)) tape from BoneyM....dad had not heard any of their tapes so he decided to take a sample....The first song was "Night flight to venus" if i remember correctly....I was around 6 then so, that song did not have any lyrics (not many any way!) but i loved the beat.....so as is customary i guess i started a voluntary "dance" (if u can call it tht, i still can't ;)) performance and dad said what the heck he got the tape recorded....and from that day on every day after school that was the only tape that played on the state of the art (for that time) JVC deck.....I guess I made everyone at home sick of that song, coz they somehow persuaded me to take a chance with some other cassette.....

That is when I discovered "Beat it" by MJ and I WAS HOOKED.... So if u see me with a walkman and a baseball cap with my head bobbing from one side to the other...blame it on my dad and his friend ;)

some trivia: Did you know that BoneyM was formed after their first song was released
and found an audience...the afro ppl were just performers, lip syncin a la Britney Spears....the creativity behind the music was that of the producer...that is how the story goes any way...

PS: this story is not as told to me but as i remember so............:)

DESPERATION?????

wada tera wada....Kishore

Bulaye chaon koi, Pukare dhoop koi;
Tera ho rang koi, Tera ho roop koi;
Kuch farak nahin naam tera......
Razia ho ya ho Radha....
WADA TERA WADA.........

The Hero of Geeks interested in physics...

But obviously...Feynman!! Here are few of his quotes....tells you how cool
he really was!!

"If we will only allow that, as we progress, we remain unsure, we will leave
opportunities for alternatives. We will not become enthusiastic for the
fact, the knowledge, the absolute truth of the day, but remain always
uncertain... In order to make progress, one must leave the door to the
unknown ajar."


You can know the name of a bird in all the languages of the world, but when
you're finished, you'll know absolutely nothing whatever about the bird...
So let's look at the bird and see what it's doing -- that's what counts. I
learned very early the difference between knowing the name of something and
knowing something.


"Science is the belief in the ignorance of experts. "


"We cannot define anything precisely! If we attempt to, we get into that
paralysis of thought that comes to philosophers, who sit opposite each
other, one saying to the other, 'You don't know what you are talking about!'
The second one says 'What do you mean by know? What do you mean by talking?
What do you mean by you?', and so on."


"...far more marvelous is the truth than any artists of the past imagined
it. Why do the poets of the present not speak of it? What men are poets who
can speak of Jupiter if he were a man, but if he is an immense spinning
sphere of methane and ammonia must be silent?"


(On pseudoscience) "...there is one feature I notice that is generally
missing in 'cargo cult science'... It's a kind of scientific integrity, a
principle of scientific thought that corresponds to a kind of utter honesty
-- a kind of leaning over backwards... For example, if you're doing an
experiment, you should report everything that you think might make it
invalid--not only what you think is right about it... Details that could
throw doubt on your interpretation must be given, if you know them."


"I'd hate to die twice. It's so boring." (last words)

........HITCHCOCK WAS GOD!!.......

Hmmmm......are you a movie buff?? Either way you will know that the recent hit "BHOOT" did not have any songs.....but the background score packed a solid punch...imagine watchin a horror movie without the sudden ups and downs in the pitch of the background score....it would seem so lifeless.......

Now, go to your DVD/VCD parlour and rent one of hitchcock's old movies...a la "THE 39 STEPS" or say "THE MAN WHO KNEW TOO MUCH" the actor's weren't great...movies were in black nd white.....and yeah, no background score (almost non-existant any way)...but while it lasts (not a long time....say 1 Hr or so..) it won't let you move....THAT was the genius of the man.......

In the recent past the only director who could get that kind of effect was (i think it was joel schumacher) the director of PHONE BOOTH (but he had the help of superior tech and better actors...)

Had hitchcock been a filmmaker now spielberg and cameron and guyz would have been number 2.......but still no one can argue..THAT MAN WAS A GENIUS!!!

SOUNDTRACKS??

i don't know if you are a music buff to but i am a complete BUFF....the thing is for every thing that happens a song usually pops up in my head...so a couple of days ago when I read of the nafisa joseph's suicide.... a couple of songs popped up in my head...the first one was SUICIDE IS PAINLESS (title song of M*A*S*H)...nd the other one was adam sandler's KILL ME (from the wedding singer...)

why??? the first one for the obvious reasons the second one coz it is about a disgrunteled lover tryin to cope with the rejection....so wot went thru your head (after you thought poor girl obviously....... :confused: )

Suicide is painless --- jay jay jhonson

Through early morning fog I see
The visions of the things to be
The pains that are withheld from me
I realise and I can see

Suicide is painless
It brings on any changes
But I can take or leave it if I please

The game of life is hard to play
I’m gonna loose it anyway
But losing cards are some days late
So this is all I have to say

The sword of time will pierce our skin
It doesn’t hurt when it begins
But as it works it’s way on in
The pain grows stronger watch it grin

A brave man once requested me
To answer questions that I keep
Is it to be or not to be
And I reply oh why ask me ?

And you can do the same thing if you please


Kill me ----Adam sandler

[Spoken] Ok, I just want to warn you that when I wrote this song I was listening to the Cure a lot.
[Sung]
You don't know how much I need you.
While you're around I don't feel blue.
And when we kiss I know that you need me too.
I can't believe I found a love that's so pure and true.

But it all was bullshit.
It was a goddam joke.
And when I think of you and I,
I hope you fucking choke.

I hope you're glad with what you've done to me.
I lay in bed all day long feeling melancholy.
You left me here all alone,
tears running constantly.

Oh somebody kill me please,
somebody kill me plee-ase,
I'm on my knees,
pretty pretty please kill me.
I want to die.
Put a bullet in my head.

[Spoken] Kid: You're going to the mental institution.

Ps: if u did not know M*A*S*H was ironically a comedy on the lives of army docs during the vietnam war!!!

CAPITAL punishment

Back to death........few things about the present day that absolutely pisses me off....media taking sides instead of presenting the facts....ppl pretending to be from the main stream (read as moderates) irrespective of what they actually think when in there homes.....remixing of songs released as "tributes" (seperate blog on tht later)...

The recent episode in West Bengal led to a debate on capital punishment on a popular site(rediff).....I hav a different approach ....i think u can't let a rapist and murderer of a 14yr old kid get away with jst a single death...i DON'T GIVE A RAT'S ASS if it acts as a deterent to others or not this gut should get his dew...all the STARS gather for human rights...the fact of the matter is u hav absolutely no right to decide that the victim's rights were not as important coz he/she is dead....

If u hav lost some one close to you....u'll know how painful it is......but u r helpless coz u cnt blame ne one....now imagine the rage in u'r head n heart if u cud see the guy who did that....balls to his rights.....i wanna kill him.....as fat boy slim wud say "rite here, rite now"......

So my solution...even if tht guy was an animal he wud be shit scared when he knowz hez gonna be hanged on a certain day n date.....wot i say is this.....tell him the date only 2 weeks in advance....write a s/w(wot to do we r n d IT age) to randomly decide the date and then decide...if u wanna conduct the death on that day (by wotever means) if not.....cancel it....and decide for a date again.....this can be continued for a maximum of 14 yrz(the life sentence)......after which he'z gotta be hanged...

Twisted and sick?? yes that is the point after all!! make him beg for wot he never wished for but did to the victim........

if u hav time read John Grisham's The Chamber and u'll get wot i'm drivin at.....

Da theory of relativity??

No pretentions....this has nothin to do with einstein's masterpiece...

I met Mr layman again ysterday (to b understood as cudn't sleeep so was TRYIN to think)....and the conversation went towards theories....and then obviously to relativity....

From a person's point of view....imagine u r bugged up with u'r shity life.....everything around u is movin too bloody fast u want to stop relax and take a break....wot do u feel like doin?? yeah thts rite SCREAM!!! but y??....bcoz when u scream really loud.....all u'r other senses won't b workin (not tht well ne way)...u won't b able to hear ne 1 else....so u will be alone..in a shell relatively speakin ;)..

The other way to look at relativity wud be this message tht i have on one of my T'z

Success is relative...
the more the success...the more the relatives :)

Home work for d weekend..if u r a techy...or ne other trade wrkin in an office wid cubicles....U GOTTA TAKE A LOOK AT THIS VIDEO....

It is FREAKYYYY

the BIG question..........

I'm BACK.....i started readin The emperor's new mind by roger penrose(must read if u hav ne interest in maths and/or physics and/or computers).......ne how, i started the 3rd chapter and it has this HUGE pattern plastered over a couple of pages...and the author says this is maths HUH??? man u R crazy....

Ok, so as it turns outit was maths after all...abstract maths at that...but it turns out if u plot all the points that satisfy an equation(due to amnesia...cudn't remember) this pattern emmerges.....the point being this wierd patter which can be broken down to the scale of a building block is the result of a computer solving an equation....not interestin enuf??? read on......

Here is the BIG question........what make u say that you nd i are not the results of a comp solvin an equation..bouncer??? ok my thots....

BIG BANG.........=> the biggest comp u can imagine (may b a quantum wala!!!) strted solvin THE equation....

Building block.....=> The smallest particle discovered last or to be discovered yet (i lost count)

who started it all..=> who cares for u it may be u'r respective god....or if u r an atheist...which quite a few of d ppl i kno are then may b the janitor of the place...he jst plugged in da m/c...

where am i goin......herez d deal......u r jst followin the rules defined by THE equation......no control over wot u r doin...when u think u r a rebel and are not following the rules may be u r just following the equation and are supposed to be tht way...........(MATRIX ishtyle)

ZOOM OUT..........the comp has jst strted solvin the eq and plottin the results....the millions of years old our universe is a couple of nano secs for the m/c...so STOP LIVIN IN U'R PERFECT WRLD AND LOOK OUTSIDE D WINDOW........puts things in perspective dsn't it......
