4th POST

112007
Within a mall...
Of course, "they" or "big brother" or "the conspirators"
can find anybody out in a matter of minutes or even seconds
in the Internet... You don't believe me?...

Even watched with amusement an arcade game
which I think is really addictive once one engages
in it. The more I reflect upon the "mall phenomenon"
& the game arcades within , the more I am convinced
that indeed all these SCENTS, SIGHTS & SOUNDS, & TASTES
were "PLANNED" by somebody/somegroup...
Is it a matter of pure profit motive that they created or devised
such contrivances (& rides in, say, Enchanted Kingdom)?
The hammer game & its adherents I observed exemplifies
P.T. Barnum's "A sucker is born every minute."

Am still thinking about ORGANIZING this blog of mine...
I originally imagined a plain BLACK screen with an
image in the center which when clicked expands to
reveal several icons... but my sheer INERTIA (better
term for laziness) resisted any effort at actualizing
a nice idea... I prefer words and sentences to images
& sounds which remind me of Shakespeare's "full
of sound & fury signifying NOTHING"! Just try
going thru the hundreds or thousands of blogs in
the Internet & see how empty & nonsensical people
have become..

I didn't conceive my blog to be a mere "diary" or journal.
Anyway...

I prayed a while ago but am not that certain about
the exact time & direction of "QIBLAH" but I tried
my best...

Before I mention anything further about the AGAMA
I'll try to bring out first all the "UNHOLY" thoughts
still remaining in my brain. It is not that easy to
change one's ideas or convictions... It takes time
(& luck (?) ) to shift from disbelief to belief to faith...
But I assure the reader that it can be "developed"...
At least that is my experience or in my own case...

Existentialism... Kierkegaard, Nietzsche, Camus...
Maybe I'll just provide key quotes that express
best their ideas or those to which I agree or
expresses my own.
"Brevity is the soul of wit." - Shakespeare
[Some conspiracy theorists CONSTHEORS
claim Shakespeare was not an individual...]
Can anybody beat this "shorty"?
I really like one-liners. Even in cartoons. That's why I liked
Dennis the Menace & other shorties...
I really believe human beings now have
shorter attention spans compared to the
thinkers in the past who had no ballpens
or strong fluorescent lamps to help them...
I suspect the culprit: the indecipherable ingredients
of packaged foods like noodles, powder juice
etc. I always say aloud at home "Nakaka-bobo"
or "Pampa-bobo" [i.e. makes one stupid or
[TANG was originally conceived as food for
astronauts. This is what I know.]
THat's why I have to limit the length of
my posts. I even believe one should limit
oneself to one (1) hour during public
speeches/lectures. Half hour for the talk
& the remaining half for exchange/
audience interaction.
