Chetan: Hey I feel like doing something nice this time of the year.

Me: Like what?

Chetan: Like donating toys or something to orphans. But I don't know any orphans, so I guess we'll just have to make some.... that'd be fun huh.

eh???

The other day I was speaking to this guy who said he read my blog n my emails "intermittently". This had me intrigued. There are hosts of people I meet who cheerfully confide that they never read my emails but instead just delete them. Such robust conviction is reassuring, a tethering sheet-anchor in a world of restless change.

There is a minuscule minority which confesses to reading me on a regular-ish basis, including one person who said he always read my stuff because he never understood a word of what I was saying. I thanked him sincerely and assured him that I shall spare no effort in future to perpetuate his state of blissful ignorance in this regard.
But, till the other day, I'd never come across anyone who said they read me intermittently. On and off. Like a light switch. But how should one decide when it was on and when off? Did one wake up one morning and make a resolution: From now on I shall read Andy's stuff only on the third Sunday of those months which don't have an "r" in them?
But any such arrangement, based on a pre-established pattern, could not properly be called intermittent, which means occurring irregularly, or at random.

How about tossing a coin? Heads, what the hell, I"ll read the bugger and be done with it. Tails, thank God, I"ll delete him out unread with the junk folder. Now thats a system that would provide one with a true intermittence of periodicity. Though the chances of a coin landing heads [or tails] on any particular toss are 50-50, heads [or tails] could in fact turn up 7, or 17, times in succession.

However, while there could be a run on heads [or tails] for a series of tosses, the laws of probability are such that over a period of time the aggregate frequency of heads and tails would even out, thereby establishing a predictable, non-random, un-intermittent pattern. Nope.

Tossing coins wouldnt work either. Besides, how would you decide whether heads meant you had to read the darn thing, or if it ought to be the other way round? How would you ensure that the heads-read/tails-don't read code didn't itself fall into a foreseeable, hence non-intermittent, formula?

Of course, one could rely on unpremeditated, spur of the moment decision. That surely would ensure authentic intermittency. But in that one would first have to decide to make that decision, could subsequent decisions to read/not read strictly be deemed to be totally unpremeditated?

Besides, was it desirable to add to the already heavy burden of decision-overload? We are forever being asked to decide: Mushrooms or olives for the extra topping? Vh1 or SS ? whatto eat for dinner.. Tandoori or Grilled chicken?Evolution or intelligent design?

Come on, hurry up, the next guy's waiting. Think you've got all day or what? Would anyone want to add to that,that dilemma of whether to read Andy or not to ? Poor Hamlet. We knew him well. Freedom of choice paralyses, and absolute freedom paralyses absolutely.

Think of Buridan's [ or wateva that fucker's name was] ass who, when placed equidistant from two equally appetising piles of hay, died of starvation because it could not decide which to eat first.

I read this story the other day in this manuscript by Colin Wilson, which tells a cautionary tale of a scientist who, in a quest for complete freedom, devised a serum which would forever liberate him from all mechanistic determinism[?!.. dont look at me lathat.. thats how it was written there] and allow him to decide on each and every action according to his own free will.
The serum worked only too well. It suppressed the autonomous working of his lungs, heart and other vital organs which he then had to order consciously to function. Somewhere between telling the pancreas to get on with it and chivvying the gall bladder, the world's first and last genuinely free spirit gave up the ghost.

so signing off while making no sense whatsoever...

over n out

The takeout? The contents of this space can be injurious to health. Particularly if taken in intermittent doses.

just got this from the calvinnhobbes e-book i'm reading..

Calvin: I'm a genius,but i'm a misunderstood genius.

Hobbes: What's so misunderstood about you?

Calvin: Nobody thinks i'm a genius!

~That pretty much sums it up for me.. :P

Exams going on.. nothing blog-able about 'em...

BUT....
there was this one question on my paper the other day which said I needed to cite my reasons/sources wateva, so I wrote 'pulled it out of my ass' and 'common f-ing knowledge' on the answer sheet. and for this other question i wrote - "The amount of multicollinearity in this equation only can technically be described as a shitload."
That should take care of the evaluator, i thought.. but if that guy gets real pissseed.. most likely i'll be failing the exam but not at my comedy.. hehe : D

wish i could come up with a blurb everytime.

new day , new rant.still trying to figure out what i need to write about.

does anybody else get stumped while trying to come up with stupid catchy phrases ?

boy, does my frustration show... i wonder if this will serve as a cathartic release... hell i wonder if i should jst use this blog to get my big words out of the way, so i dont use them inadvertently. ha!

i suppose i would do better if i had a specific topic to write on, but i've always felt that i need more lateral choices than vertical... does that make any sense, or was that jst crap i wrote?
i seem to have developed so many different interests, i find it difficult to devote time to any one and instead wander from one to another. i'm sure its very new age dude in touch with nature follow ur heart b.s. but i wonder if i'll ever have anything accomplished.
so i make lists. and i keep asking questions. a lot of stupid ones. and i walk the knife edge of sanity.
watch me write!
im sure it reflects my mad dance along the space time curve.
i will write as i see fit..life through my lens.distortion slips in.who will pull the log out of my eye?
does this qualify as below par free verse... ?
might as well use the internet to publish it then.
i feel like i use a lot of punctuation marks. not capitalizing on purpose. its going to be my style.. when i feel like it.

State of the Fart!!!

The following information is highly confidential andstill i have the balls to post this.Wohkay.. so here goes:
Last week i had a secret rendezvous with my secretunnamed source[ nahi re NOT Simi Garewal] in the CBIwho doesnt wanna be identified right now cos he wantsto publish a book later after he retires [a la DeepThroat]. Lets just call him Hollow Anus[ you shall getthe pun later]
.So Hollow Anus handed me a paper n before i could say "waddayawantmetodowiththis;wipemyass?" [ again u'llgetthe pun later] he just disappeared n i was leftclutching the paper. So i began to read it, 'twas amanuscript on a subject titled "The State of the fart"which was about the link between the mind and thebowel being both crucial and direct.Its been claimedthat from farts,the researcher [ a.k.a fart analyser dude] can not only tell what people have eaten ordrunk, but also the sort of person they are, whetherthey are emotionally stable or unstable, if they'rekeeping secrets,laughing at you behind your back andtrying to ingratiate themselves with you and even whatthey're thinking about at the precise moment theyissue the fart[ this largely n pretty much only fromthe sound produced by the gas through the anal orifice].
I think its totally crap [pun intended again], but if its true, then i guess this has the potential to become the research of the century... I mean think abt it, this can be implemented by interrogators on prisoners n enemy spies, all u havta do is feed 'emstuff like peanuts, palli batani chana etc etc and out they fart the secrets they're keeping. Supposedly,Fartresearch has the whole n soul support of the NationalHuman Rights Commission since there'll be no more need for any more third degree torture n stuff like that.No need for interrogation rooms[ rem my last mail??],hot n stuffy fart rooms 'll become the order of the day in jails since the temperature for anal fissure is optimal in such locations. I can hear someone say [so y u tellin me all this] so i say [shuttfup n read along beeecchhhh] See,if u have a crush on this chickn u desperately wanna find out whether shereciprocates your feelings then all u have to do isfeed her something n wait for her to fart.. Its assimple as that!!! Fart analysis is here to stay!!!for example, here are some not-so-hypotheticalsituations.
Scene:1 Udi: Here's some peanuts for ya [randomchick insertname here]Random chick: [after eating thosepeanuts]PFffffffttt... [fart]Udi: Beeeeecchhhhhandy: wawassaattt !!!!udi: gimme a break maan.. even she thinks im gaydammit why do ppl think im gay?andy: maybe cos u let out gay farts all the time!

Scene 2: Girl: tume mujhse kitna pyaar karte ho?boy: A 1000 packets of haldiram's are also not enoughto profess my love for you honey..girl: ohh darling... ppffftttt!!!boy: I love you too baby.. Myuuhaahaaa

Me.The Bouncee!!

http://www.m-w.com/cgi-bin/dictionary?book=Dictionary&va=bouncer

One entry found for bouncer.
Main Entry: bounc·er Pronunciation: 'baun(t)-s&rFunction: noun: one that bounces; especially : a person employed to restrain or eject disorderly persons


just in case you're wondering why i posted this.. i got 'hakall'ed outta BnC last night cos i was wearing sandals..
well..i wasn''t exactly 'hakall'ed.. i was denied entry cos the 'Club Rules Apply' and apparently those club rules state that one can't wear sandals n try to walk in.. never mind that those were 1500 reeboks.. not like i was wearing [Bata cheppulu]..beech!!! thats a first btw.. what part of [wanting to have liquor when u have sandals worn] goes against the [sanctity] of club rules i dont understand.. i hardly dance cos i suck at it... tried telling it to that bouncer but he just didnt wanna listen.. first it was the couple entry crap..fine.. i went with that n when i finally manage to get a date n try to get in.. THIS happens!!!

I came up with a morning ritual today that I HAVE to blog about . I call it 'the Terminator.' First I crouch down in the shower in the classic 'naked terminator traveling through time' pose. With my eyes closed I crouch there for a minute, visualizing either Arnold or the moltenmetalguy from the second movie, not the chick in the third one because that one sucked, and I start to hum the Terminator theme. Then I slowly rise to a standing position and open my eyes. It helps me to proceed through my day as an emotionless, cyborg badass. The only problem is if I have to pee or take a dump urgently, it ruins my fantasy..

Top5 cartoon characters who might be Gay!!!

We've all watched cartoons at one time or another. When i was a kid, i used to watch a lot of 'em back then..i thought their homosexual traits to be really funny n cool and didn't think anything of them. Now when i look back i wonder how i could have missed it. . The way they talked and dressed made it obvious that they liked to smoke pole or munch rug, and we missed it. Now i watch these shows closer than i ever have before..looking for signs to confirm my suspicions. . I believe that the following characters weren't intended to be gay but somehow the cartoonists' inner selves reflected upon their creations..
5. Snagglepuss (The Yogi Bear Show)
First off..have you ever heard this character speak? He sounds like he should be a cast member on Queer Eye for the Straight Guy. All he wears are cufflinks and a bowtie, and, oh yeah, he's pink. He has one of the gayest catchphrases out there, "Heavens to Mergatroid"[ or something lathat]. What the hell does that mean? Is that what he yells during intercourse? He is also always being chased by a man carrying a long shaft like object, which may or may not be a gun, and enjoying it way too much.
4. Vanity Smurf (The Smurfs)
Vain to the extreme. Not only is he effeminate but he wears a flower in his hat. His voice makes it easy to judge him. Never without his hand mirror, Vanity is a true diva. Who is the fairest one of them all? Smurfette? Bitch Please. You're beautiful, Vanity Smurf, no matter what they say.[ Smurfs weren't on when i was a kid.. but my cousins watch it now, so i happened to catch an episode once].
3. Velma (Scooby-Doo, Where Are You?)
Have you ever noticed that Velma is always sitting next to Daphne in the Mystery Machine. She has no sense of fashion because she is always wearing a turtle neck sweater with a skirt and knee high socks... sports a butch hair cut and broad shoulders. Most of all, has never ever tried to bribe Shaggy into poking her using her vast supply of Scooby Snacks.
2. He-Man/Prince Adam (He-Man and the Masters of the Universe)
I realize that Vh1 touched on this, but they didn't go into enough detail to make their case. First of all Prince of Eternia Adam (sounds like a gay bar) wore a pink vest and PURPLE TIGHTS! He only wore a loin cloth when he turned into He-Man. That should be evidence enough right there. I didn't even have to mention his extremely queer haircut. Also, all of his power comes from his "sword". Okay so I used to play around with his toy figure. Don't judge me. I was a kid back then.and the gayest of 'em all..
5. Bugs Bunny (Loony Toons)
Remember when we used to think Bugs Bunny was attractive when he dressed up as a girl bunny?That was when i didnt know abt cross dressers. What we didn't think about, or at least I didn't, was why was Bugs Bunny dressed in drag? Why does he always kiss Elmer Fudd on the mouth? Why does he fondle Elmer's ass before he kicks it? Why is he always singing show tunes? Why is he always sticking cylindrical objects into his mouth? Yes, I remember him drooling over Lola Bunny in Space Jam, but I just think he was trying to impress Michael Jordan.
