Animal Speak

IF animals could talk to humans - in every day life situations - what would they say??

Scene 1:

Road Cow - a simple village road - two lane - speeding car - happy humans... suddenly out of nowhere a cow appears in the middle of the road!!! GODDAMN IT!!!! screaching skidding honking, the humans yell insults. Unmoved, the cow starts to slowly move to the side of the road. Happily chewing on its cud. The human is still yelling, no space for him to move. Insults like, "bloody animal", "slow creature", "bloody beef curry" and the like start to flow...

What does the cow say?? - "Bloody humans - in a bloody hurry all the time, cant even slow down. I am moving naa, not like i am standing in the middle of the road just to annoy. I liked the cool tar on my skin, and here he is irritating me. Bloody human"

Scene 2:
Human "walking" his dog!! Actually the dog is practically making the human, who is engrossed with his better half on the phone exchanging sweet nothings, run... all of a sudden the dog stops cold turkey, squats and lets loose his pile of shit!!! (he still has not started talking yet - ;-)) and the human caught unaware, steps into it.... FACHAAK!!! The human starts yelling at the dog, "bloody animal", "you have to stop in the way", and so on and so forth... POOR Dog!! (you think??)

What do you think the dog says?? "Stupid human - cant even look and walk, even i can side step a pile of shit... ur supposed to be walking me but here i have to take you around as if I am the one walking you, but then who would see the difference... I am just doing my business... this is how i do it... you be careful.. anyway you are so slow... bloody overweight oaf!!!!"

Do let me know if there are any other such thoughts!!

i know one thing, i am not going to take animals for granted, because although they dont talk, they are smarter than most humans,, maybe this one is you????

In Search of Satisfaction!

"In this life - one thing counts;

In the bag - large amounts..."

- Fagin (Oliver)



But my urge is not to pick a pocket or two... its just to find a nice balance in work, pleasure, happiness and satisfaction. Not necessarily in that order!!



I have for the past 3 years been on the look out for many things that can fully complete my basic necessities without over burdening me with more work, or giving me the dissatisfaction of being unemployed... I love to work, but then too much is just enough...



Colleagues all around are just dropping out of their current vocation to "take a break and figure out my life". I mean do you really need a break to figure out your life?? Its not a matter of state security. But then, in hindsight, it is in the best interest for emotional sanity (something I lack).



I look out of the window of my work space and see ships in various shapes and sizes, and then it dawns on me - I am a ship. I have been built for a purpose, to carry a load (be it biologically or emotionally) which I will dump eventually and pick up a new load.



Now its up to me how I can react to it. I could be happy that I have been given a responsibility and work effortlessly, because - lets face it; I am good -OR- I could crow around saying 'OH MY GOD!! SO MUCH WORK TO DO YAAR!!!'



And I wake up every morning and ask myself, will today be as good as I hope it will be??



How do you wake up?? Happily (I know everyone is groggy) or thinking I wish the world would come to an end...

Blogophobia

I have blogophobia - fear of posting reading material online... I fear I maybe ridiculed...

what cured me??? - the fact that I am ridiculed all along even in office :)
Would not really call it ridiculed - more like had fun at the expense of (in a good natured kind of way)

So I figured, if I can put up with that in reality, then ridiculing myself in front of a million odd people who may or may not know me is well not so scary!!!

now, the other thing that stopped me was the fact that I could not collect enough thoughts to actually sit down and post something ever so seriously !!! then it dawned on me - i am on email all the time.... even on my Nokia Communicator... so i could just jot down thughts and use them..

3rd thing that stopped me - the inclination to actually get down to doing it - aaahhh whose gonna sit down and go to my blog space and type out my thoughts - i mean apart from me - who cares!!!!!!!!!

anyway - i completely intend to over come this fear!!!

wish me luck

The Eternal Choice

Every now and then - people have to make choices....

some for wives, some for knives (lives here seemed to sidee)
some for cars, some for bars (the alcoholic types)

I was recently exposed to a real mind grating choice

Which laptop do I buy???
(I am still plagued by it)

I saw two possible options...

One is a Dell Inspiron 1420 (has rcvd rave reviews from various magazines and portals wordlwide.. and the other an HP pavilion "entertainment" laptop model 2401 TU.

Features wise both are similar... both offer me a nice battery backup, great storage, amazing graphics, excellent sound, and mind blowing value for money...

What do i DO - AAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHH

roughly translated - I am going to be constantly in grief and regret for not having bought the other when it was available - hence....

Any one out help me get rid of my misery???

regards!!!
