numero uno's back!

2008-11-09T11:48:00.000+05:30

Been a long long time since I posted stuff up here. IM BACK.... muhuhahahahah (evil chuckle followed by baring of fangs)

There'd be lotsa genius philosophy splashed all over this page now from our Goa Headqtrs. Phoren Correspondent had changed the password you see :P

Anyways, so here eet eej. Aaj ki taaza khabar:

1. Sirtifyd Jeenious number 2 is getting a saxie bike. An increse in the sale of zebra-tart and chocolate-muffins and other monginis perishables/goods in the months of January expected. A prominent decrease in the weight of Guru's wallet is predicted, owing to the trickle down effect of the bike-buying.

2. Yesterday we had confirmed reports of effigy burning and slogan shouting happening outside the gates of BITS, Pilani - Goa Campus regarding some 'Human Rights issue' as alleged by the NGO involved in the stone-throwing mode of fighting for human rights. Details Awaited.

3. ID numbers have been changed to 12-digit ones now, that is from 200xPyPSzzz to 200xAyPSzzzG, and 200xSyPSzzz to 200xByPSzzzG for Goa Campus. This change has led to a new development in the field of google-talk status messages. Statistics tell us that about 43.57% of the people on an average gtalk-list have messages relating to this change. This change has also invoked mixed reactions from the public.

Those were the top stories from Goa HQ. Back to our Phoren Correspondent, who right now is at Tata Motors, Pune, allegedly doing some 'work'.

Comprehending Reality...

2008-11-09T00:50:00.000+05:30

since ive already written a lotta serious posts, heres one thats on the lighter side...

it is an intellectual fallacy to believe that knowledge is gained by experience. infact there is really no substitute for a superior imagination. the predicament with imagination is that the word has lost its meaning and has become synonymous with neverneverland. a good imagination does not mean you should be able to concoct a world like potters, what it really means is that you should be able to manipulate(in ur mind) your surroundings in a way that is/may be possible.

empiricism only puts a barrier to the working of your mind. for instance, while playing chess i cant say if a certain move of mine would evoke a certain response which i want to avoid. and i definitely cant try it out, on the basis of chance, just to experience what my opponent does. the problems only get bigger when we move from the chess board to the planet. basically, if i havent experienced a situation before, reasoning takes priority.

humans are designed to reason but it is also quite easy to develop and maintain an erroneous perception. when somebody shares a profound theory we tend to agree with the person(a good reason for people remembering so many quotes by eminent people). its not true just because someone else is saying it!the craving to think 'out of the box' has left people not thinking at all...for u dont need to think out of the box, u just need to think!!!!....the concept of pragmatism is also quite absurd. how are we to know what knowledge would be of what use at what time....complex nos which were supposed to be useless at their initial stages provide beautiful solutions to a range of problems.

to finish this post all i have to ask u is-- are u one of those who believe that what u r is decided by what uve experienced?moulded by ur surroundings?the effect of a sequence of events...the whole cause and effect in my life BS?....because as far as i can remember we have changed our surroundings to what we desired...dont be the effect, be the cause...dont try thinking different---think!

2007-12-22T00:05:00.000+05:30

aaah...m bak in pune...a place where i can safely say that i have time on me hands...n now that i do, i feel like wringin its bloody neck!!where was all this time when i needed it the most(referrin to the compres of course)..bak in colg i wud try to calm down by tellin myself--hey ive still got a day, the friggin wrld rotates once in that period so wats this stupid syllabus!!...

wid so much time waitin to be wasted one can just sit n wonder(fr those of u hu r new to wat i wonder....i sympathize wid u!)...

issue-1----why do sky divers wear helmets???!!!!!
i mean y??!!do they think that may be theres a chance of survivin after all!..

issue-2----how do these south indians speak so fast!!?
sumtime bak i was sittin next to this guy hu exhausted the entire kannad dictionary, in abt 5 mins, on the phone!!GOD HE WAS TALKIN!!!...neway...so after sumtime the guy started talkin to me n durin our conversation he happened to ask me----"was he training in blore??"(i had just come bak from ma trip to blore to ma bros place)...in confusion i responded sayin--no he wrks there!!...the guy asked me the same ques again, only that this time he was louder n more animated..i didnt know how to reply to his query so i asked him wat training he was talkin abt...well the guy continued to ask me the ques over n over again...after abt 3-4 mins i understood his ques...the guy wanted to know--if it was raining in blore!!!sheesh....

issue-3(ma fav)--what does cupid do during rainy season??!!
its not just the possible explicit sightings but also the painful thunderstorms which might be a cause fr concern!!

issue-4---was woman(m talkin abt the all girly girly kind) brain a mistake of god or does he not exist??!!!
i guess this one wud remain unanswered!

issue-5---how do ppl reach the end of ma post!!
human will power continues to amaze me!!;)

to end this post id say when u r bored makin limericks can be fun...its just a form of poetry wid an AABBA rime scheme...heres an illustration

There once was a cretin named Jack
Whose buttcrack ran right up his back.
Said he with a leer,
"Toilet paper, my dear?
I use a whole roll at one whack."

ok may be i shud give a proper one too...

He clasps the crags with his crooked bird hands
On echoing cliffs he motionless stands
The distant sea crawls
He folds his wings, falls,
And like a thundermug he lands.
~Alfred "The Lord" Tennyson

so well ya i have no problems drivin thru all these places, avoidin backin cars and scooters so adamant to cross the road/take a turn they pay no heed to my horn screamin its lungs out.. no problems execuing U-turns at oddest of places...and then i decide to get back home.. no probs there either... and then i reach the main gate of the colony and smash!!!!!! white car into the black gate... left side ka indicator had a lucky escape... the cars all swollen (?!?) on the left side jus before the door...

sheesh...

well, jus wen u think u got it all rite, murphy strikes... in the form of cundie dundie in pune and the black maingate in delhi...

well... finally this link has something worthwhile (?!?!) on it... to start off, id like to introduce ourselves, the sirtifyd jeeniuses... well.. its pranshu n gurdeep... prawns n guru here, ready to infiltrate into ur minds and fool around with the neuronal wirings in there, and fitting in our own self-diffusable fuses of earth-wobbling and brain-squeezing theories replete with combinational words that u read here first in really really long sentences with 3 dots as the only punctuation most of the time, maybe even commas sometimes as seen here.

in case ur thinking "whaat deed yoo say?"

go back and read the longish sentence again.

haan... so... well.. this blog is a side effect of the drug given for immediate relief from boredom, ie internet access (the drug)... well.. summer hols have begun... and so we're just 2 lost souls swimming in well, 2 different fish bowls, me in delhi and gurubhai in pune... and so somehow we came up with this weirdly fun idea of a common blog (this is my second common blog... first one was well, too boring)

haan so.. well as you can see, this page showed no posts for about 3 days since it came into existence, mainly owing to gurus laziness... so well.. yeah.. there u go.. me done with the introduction..

so ppl.. fasten ur seat belts and take a deep breath (one o ur last uns if ur visitin this page again)... this is just the beginning.. we'll be back soon.. whenever guru decides to wake up...

bbye fr now!
