Increase in my Over Head Cost....! :-(

Today all of a sudden my overhead costs increased by 600%... Very strange for it to jump in jus a year.. and certainly not a very good sign for the future...! Yes.. I had my hair cut done today and it cost me s$ 10... The costliest hair cut I have ever had.. and probably the worst...! It in itself had some very remarkable records...

The fisrt time I had paid so high for getting my hair cut...
The first time a women cut my hair [I trusted her a lot..! Why did she do this to me???]

The first time my hair look like an uncut grass land grazed by goats and sheets here and there...!

But i should thank her for one good thing.. Though I payed a heavy overhead cost... She made sure that the inventory does not builds up for quite some time to come...! The hair was less than 2cm long when i stepped out of the shop...!

LOVE And Law of Dimishing Utility....!

I today learnt about this god knows what "Law of Diminishing Marginal Utility", it
claims that more the quantity lesser the want for the given...!!! And pretty much
contested through the years, this law seems to have been holding ground.. Or should I
say.. No one could break this law yet...! Wierd though.. Anywez.. So I thought why not
apply this established theory to one of mans most incomprehensible phenomena..
LOVE...!
Straight forward.. One remembers the first kiss than the 264th one.. Gals
remember the firts boy friend more than the 178th one...! [Do they????].. But that
would be plain mundane application of the theory.. what makes it even more facinating
is the aftermath of the so called love that has happened...!
Cutting the crap [atleast for me].. What follows is as some believe a
wonderful period of romance.. passion.. sensuality etc.. etc.. and then all of a
sudden.. no matter what may prevent.. a slag sets in [As many claim.. They Never Lived
Happily Ever After...!]. The guy starts looking at the girl as a liability [Both in
financial terms as well as mental strain terms..!] and the gal starts looking at the
guy as the ATM which works on kisses and cuties...!
The cupid pain of the arrows of cupid suddenly start paining more than ever
before...! The cost or effort eachother were willing to pool in for each other starts
going down and down and down...!
The phone calls no longer last for hours together... The night strolls
together get shortened to lesser than the time spent in loos...! And so goes the
story...
The theory tells that as this goes on.. The value becomes at one point 0..
That is they both would not be ready to pay any price or effort or time for each
other...! Is there a way to improve this free fall...! Yaype... And economics tells
that you have to either reduce the price or increase the value proposition...!
Hey.. How do i bring down the price...! Well.. They say - Once upon a time my girl used to wait for me for hours during
dates.. and now she shouts if I am late even 5 mins..! Thats the wake up call my
friend.. The price she is willing to pay is just 5 min.. so be there within 5 min -
Else.. you know the consequenses..
And the value???That could be tough... earn more...! Well other wise.. start washing your gals
clothes...! Oh yeah...! I forgot this disclaimer telling that.. the article is unisex and male and
female can suitably apply their brains to find the cost and value yourselves...!

Lincoln’s Letter to his Son’s Teacher

He will have to learn, I know,
that all men are not just,
all men are not true.
But teach him also that
for every scoundrel there is a hero;
that for every selfish Politician,
there is a dedicated leader…
Teach him for every enemy there is a friend,

Steer him away from envy,
if you can,
teach him the secret of
quiet laughter.

Let him learn early that
the bullies are the easiest to lick…
Teach him, if you can,
the wonder of books…
But also give him quiet time
to ponder the eternal mystery of birds in the sky,
bees in the sun,
and the flowers on a green hillside.

In the school teach him
it is far honourable to fail
than to cheat…
Teach him to have faith
in his own ideas,
even if everyone tells him
they are wrong…
Teach him to be gentle
with gentle people,
and tough with the tough.

Try to give my son
the strength not to follow the crowd
when everyone is getting on the band wagon…
Teach him to listen to all men…
but teach him also to filter
all he hears on a screen of truth,
and take only the good
that comes through.

Teach him if you can,
how to laugh when he is sad…
Teach him there is no shame in tears,
Teach him to scoff at cynics
and to beware of too much sweetness…
Teach him to sell his brawn
and brain to the highest bidders
but never to put a price-tag
on his heart and soul.

Teach him to close his ears
to a howling mob
and to stand and fight
if he thinks he’s right.
Treat him gently,
but do not cuddle him,
because only the test
of fire makes fine steel.

Let him have the courage
to be impatient…
let him have the patience to be brave.
Teach him always
to have sublime faith in himself,
because then he will have
sublime faith in mankind.
This is a big order,
but see what you can do…
He is such a fine little fellow,
my son!

Power and Fear!

"With Great Power Comes Great Responsibilty" - Thats a famous oneliner from SpiderMan.

Pretty catchy - Aint it... Well spider man clad in his blue-red costume and coupled with this onliner almost unanimously synonimises the american big brother - Bug stick - nosy porker role!

I would liek to change that onliner differently..

"With Great Power Come Great Fear - The Fear of losing it!"

This seems to be the precise satanic curse taht falls on everyone who starts to gain power or some way posesses it! No ones ready to loose it..
Parvez Musharraf wants to cling to it.. and in the fear of losing it.. goes insane! Indian politicians in rule are afraid thath if they deliver a non-populist hard hitting reforms - They would be thrown out of office - [The measures against Inflation - Save ten buks now ans lose hundred tomorrow moves!]

Now back to the Big Brother! Power somehow not rests on the american soil and culminates at the White House..! So does the fear of losing the might.

Iraq sounds like someone who would defy us.. who would choose not to be our ally and yet prosper.. How can that happen.. Lets teach em a lesson!

Well buddies.. Learn form it now! Atleast act sanely with Iran.

I somehow sense the same megalomania in Bush which i sense with Saddam...! But no one knows Saddam as a person who once recieved UNICEF award for child education programs he brought forth! Neither do we remember or possible will forever that United states had a hand in the chemical warefare that were once lodged on Kurds in northern Iraq.. [Perharps the west german generals would have had an answer then!]

Now.. Why this insanity... Thats what fear is...!

When the weak are afraid.. They peee.. But when the powerful are afraid.. They raid.. raid before the enemy awakes!

The Reality about Unreality..!

Well... Before starting please avoid paranoahia about the kinda titles i choose for the articles...! Some how i find a lot of meaning in self contradiction... Life is all about it ppl.

Unreal - Sounds a very out of earth word..
How do we define Unreality - Some thing that does not exist?
Then how do we define Existence? Hmm... Something that exists.
Well deep down we may see that there is nothing that is not real. Everything exists somewhere. Some in this universe of space-time while others in our own imaginary universe of dream n thoughts! Everything exists somewhere.
I respect the so called unreality because thats pure creativity. It is pure mind, and in itself pure... Your own.. You create it and no one is there to corrupt it.
There are infact many ways to realise this unreality.. Like the way i am typing out this blog... Realising my thoughts of the unrealistic...
Unreality sans boundary.. sans sanity.. thats great...! Now one very very interesting way of realising your unreal passions is to create it in reality... Painting.. Writing.. Movies.. Wow.. and we cherish the sans timelines...!
We still wonder at the might of picasso.. the might os Isaac Asimov.. The might of Da Vinci.. They were ppl who had a wonderful gift of creating reality out of unreality!
How much should have the Wachowski brothers pondered to create the modern day epic! If that sounds strange.. What do we answer to our Mythologies.. scores of prophecies...! Man the journey into unrealism is wonderful... Thats pure!

Well.. Now lets ponder on the unreality of reality!

Real - Hmm.. What is reality.. I we say everythings that is around us that we can feel with our 5 senses... Who said there are only 5 senses ?? There might be an oragnism somewhere which does something beyond our 5 senses...! And then which means reality is relative! For a person who cant hear.. Music is not reality...!
And now steps in our Beethovan.. The person who could not hear.. creating the most fabulous musical odysseys of all times! A person who is a genuis in something that was not real to him...! Lets dig more into reality... There are thinsg that are beyond our 5 senses... But if we cannot realise them.. Does that mean they are not there...! That would be the most stupid conclusion... Then there are so many things which we do not realise.. But might somewhere some how affect us... Which we without realising react to!
A snake which has no ears reacts to music... We too moght be dancing to the tunes of something... which we do not sense!

I would sing off this one with this paradoxical note...!

When we cannot feel something that is real... Then... The word unreal disappears... So can we say - Unreality - Our own thoughts.. Dreams.. imaginations.. are real...!

Yes.. I do believe in Deja VU.....!

Certainty is so uncertain!

Certainty is so uncertain!

Well here again a self contradicting statement has come and sat on my cerebrum! Jus as i am... certainly uncertain.

Very certainly i can say its uncertain that India would win the cricket match!

Very certainly its uncertain that the stock market would sustain ints bull run!

Very certainly uncertain that i would be able to carry this blogging forward! Hahaha..

Why dont i ever come up with simplistical ways of expressing complex things and why do i always love complicating simplistic things!

Reason... I firmly believe that there does not exixt anything on this earth that is simplistic and everythin has an embedded complexity attached to the so called simplistic appearance!

I have heard many people say.. It is not rocket science to do this and it is so simple to understand that! Well people kindly correct it...!
The reason something appears simple i would say is because something more complex is wraping it around makes it to appear illusionarily simple!

Examples! yeah why not! Jus take the case of talking or writing.. its sounds extremely simple to write down a blog.. even with seemingly simplistic thoughts like these evolving out of an extremely complex entity such as me [:-)] but yeah.. The reason it appears simple is because the framework of barin and human dexterity makes it look so simple.. Behind this is so much of complex chemical transmissions and interaction nuero senses and blah blah...! I aint any biology persona...!
But imagine us making a robot which replicates this simplistic job of writing its own blog! Ahhh... sounds more comlex than rocket science... doesnt it...! Thats what i love to do... comlicate the simplicity... the other way round would be even more interesting.. simplifying the comlexity...! The confusion that arise between these two antonyms... is really admirable...! Two antonyms which exist in hand with each other... A YIN-YANG...! The whole world is supported by such antonymical entities balancing each other...! The others are left to your dreams... Or may till i come with another diaspora of uncertainty....!
