What I hate about my connection

My connection keeps tripping every 20 mins or so and then takes its own sweet time to come back on. So when I'm having a conversation with someone online, I'm the rude one who signs out without notifying. It's very bugging. Reliance Wi-Max, you are making my online entity a rather uncouth person.

(S)Tumbling

If anyone has tried walking up a hillside with a pair of loose denims on you'd know how I felt a week ago. 'I am a proud man, I am a proud man, Dancing to the beat of a mother coming down'...that's not my line, that's Cloud Cult (does it have MILF connotations or is it about The Holy Mother). The name's really nice...Cloud Cult. Another name that really gets me all trippy is Random Charas.
A few days ago someone told me about the metaphors from No Smoking. The chopped fingers depicting the hold of the censor/society on an artist, a society that decides what's good for you etc. 'Oh, ok', I said.
Coming back to Cloud Cult, the band works out of an organic farm set up by the band's founder and records in a studio powered by geothermal energy. They have their own record label called Earthology Records. The other interesting thing is that while the band performs there is a live painting done on stage, which is auctioned at the end of the show. I like these alternative expressions, I fully support art for art's sake, only please don't pontificate and tell me the deeper meaning that lies in your piece unless I ask.
My sentences will be disjointed for a small while and my posts abrupt. I hope to post far more regularly now, I'm just getting back to writing after a long while. If there are any readers please bear with me or mail me and ask me to shut up, I'll give you songs for free.
(Small publicity note, new blog I came across Insatiable Pit, has promise. If you hate me or think this blog is pretentious and waste etc etc, you'll love them.)

Who Spoilt My Mum?

Got promoted, got raised and got bonused. How much more can one get? In an ideal world everything can be super sized.
It's almost 1:00 at night and my mum has just gone to watch some TV, I guess I'm spoiling her.

Licensed Madness

. Christ here we go again. It's been almost a year, why ought we come again?
- like Virgin Mary asked, eh?
. You always come up with these trashy pop-culture references, don't you?
- you talkin to me?
. God, will you stop it already, we're here after so long and all you can think of is rehashed dialogues!
- what we've got here is failure to communicate.
. Anyway, I saw a very similar kind of conversation between a Square and a Circle. They are a comic strip, you can find them here so, our guy is quite the mutt when it comes to originality
- frankly my dear, I don't give a damn.
. Yeah, looks like it. So as I was saying, the other guy can draw as well, panels and all. This dick just keeps hammering away at his keyboard
- in that case, I'm going to make him an offer he can't refuse.
. I'm off to sleep. You're just the pain you've always been
- stella, hey Stellaaaaaaaaaaa
. Houston, we have a problem

A Good Long Sleep

I don't have views, I don't have opinions, I don't have tastes or stories. Anecdotes don't pepper my life or the other voice. My philosophies are not to be shared. I don't pontificate on the unnecessary. I'm washed out. I can't write. I don't like to write. Or so you would have thought. Not all of this is true. Some of these though have an iota of truth in them, deep inside them.

Fingering Maggie

. Oye consortium, I've got a song for you
- Yeah? What?
. "To see you cry, it makes me smaaaaaiiile. I feel bad for a while and then...."
- That's very flaterring, I just don't think of you
. Fuck! You stole a line yet again. Did you hear that people dis darn dash stole another line. Anyway it is good fun figering you 'finger finger'
- I feel like clubbing, hit the party scene
. Standing up or lying down?
- Heh, funny aren't you? Children of the Sky...World hold on. Come to think of it the world can't hold onto you ever
. Did you watch this movie 'Stranger Than Fiction'? A nice quiet film with a fairly subtle dues ex. You must watch it
- That's the one with Maggie Gyllenhal, innit? (got the pun you stupid dot?)Did you know Maggie acted in 'The Secretary' it was a movie that had a boss and "The Secretary" indulge in BDSM fantasies. I expected the movie to be one on quickies, what with Maggie being done in 2 minutes and all.
. The question was, did you watch the movie, you trivia buster.
- No, I didn't
. That's all I wanted to know
- Unappreciative bastard. Do you have the DVD?
. I may
- Can I have it?
. I will consider that
- Oh great. Call me when you're done considering
. I may
- Why do you not like me?
. It's not that, it's just that at times I just can stand you, muhuhahahahah. Sorry but that was jut waiting to blurt itself out. Alright I'll give you the DVD
- Thank you, And God save Maggie

The Long Sunrise

Yaargh, he was eaten by a tyranosaurus who also ended up with his lady love. Of course once Yaargh knew that the reptile was preferred over him he would have gladly placed his neanderthal head in the flint smasher. So being the rather stubby dinner for Rex didn't feel that bad. Of course the bateria, paleozoic ones, in the lizard's saliva would've happily colonised his gonads (that's where they bite) and killed him and his neighbours with the gangarene gas. But then the neighbours were all dead, thanks to a ravenous T-Rex and a faulty flint smasher.

As Yaaargh passed into afterlife he added another 'a' to his name, to grow as an individual he would say. That is if you met him and to do so you'd have to end up in the nether regions of a neanderthal world, the thing they called Rhumba. Today, however, we have a sophisticated hell system where everyone has a no-exit booking etc.

"Hmph!"

Waiting For Change? Never!

This is no New Year resolution bit, it is just a way in which I can keep a tab on my devils (sorry bout that had to common terminology, you know how much we appreciate each other).
This thing has been lying pending for over a year now.
What?
The website that brings more to its readers.
There is a name - Offguard, courtesy Supriya (www.roswitha.blogspot.com). So the elusive URL would be www.offguard.net
What happens here?
Everyday that I delay, procastinate and give other excuses, long office hours, personal life in a mess, lost and bored or any other excuses my rather fertile brain conjures up will be documented in full or brief, whichever comes first.
So it is out in the open, anonymity aside.
