The brust of extra terrestrial dust that burst forth from the trans galactic pod was not short of breath taking... it shot off at unbelievable speed of close to 60km/sec.... the massive amount of details that was was being emanated from the space craft was absolutely astounding... 65,536 residents of the area came out to see this blitzreig of color... the detailed body work of the craft itself left close to 15000 people perpetually dazed and confused... it was when the telekinetic energy emanated highly dense thermodynamic impulses thru a media much hotter than the average blue flame of fire we get to see on the planet ... what came to happen after that a true display of Sonar power..the gushing sound of audio waves from 20Hz to 20kHz left people amazed ... the dazzling performances ranged for close to 15 hours...

Coke-a-Doodle Doo!!

“A Coke is a Coke and no amount of money can get you a better Coke than the one the bum on the corner is drinking.” Andy Warhol

That one line got me going ... the material belongings we strive for ...as soon as it becomes common place it loses it's significance... so it isn't about the material value of the item itself now is it... it's about how exclusive the item is.. and how u can flaunt it for it's non-availablity to the general public..and then rub it in their face...so it can be cheap/expensive... old/new as long as it stands out and you can garner attention for possessing something they do not have and cannot easily get...so it is ADD ..topped with greed and gluttonous consumerist propaganda... would you like some fries with that?

so where does one draw the line .. or does one not think abt lines and narrow domestic walls that keep the apple orchards from growing into the woods dark and deep... My Captain Oh Captain I call out to thee, the one who made the lamb, can u sing me a song of a lad that has gone.. the unkindest cut of all would be to spend an eternity waiting with the alabatros around my neck...

And they live happily ever after

....

.........

....

[Have they closed the freaking book yet?]

...

good... fuck was that a grotesque exercise in happy story telling or what ... i mean c'mon... this job is just freaking unbelievable ... i mean how long am i going to be working here in this place.... everytime these kids open the book it's the same deal... i have to go around do all the dirty work .. be nice to that bitch who play's the princess save her from that dragon ...who's actually a nice guy and then i'm supposed to live happily ever after.. with her ... holy shit ..gimme a break...i'dn't piss on her if she were on fire...ur collegues are a bunch of whining sissy's!... its a monotonous boring job.. i need some more action .. i need a deviation in the script... i wanna do something outta the ordinary... maybe fall off that stallion i ride and break a leg.. get an extra terrestrial to blow the planet to smitherins... have a govt sting operation on the cocaine dealings of the princess's secret love interest in columbia.... i need go to a bar with my buddies... take a princess out to dinner perhaps..... another one .. one i'm more comfortable with perhaps... this one obviously has no clue what's going on life? i mean each day she comes to the trailer.. and we wait with our costumes and make up on for the kids to pick up the book and read us .. and we keep doing the same jobs ... and some of are getting sick... we need to retire ...we're planning on having a strike... alice is scared of the dark and they send her thru that hole all the time... jack is scared of heights ..and he's gotta go up that bean stalk... the wolf in sheep's clothing ... what can u do ..the guy's foster mom was a sheep... he has an identity crisis.. each time he has to play the part ..he has to go to counselling... the fox ..he's allergic to grapes... the crow ... well the truth is they had to digitally alter his voice ..coz the truth is he sings quite well... lil red riding hood came to try out for baywatch and look where she landed up... goldie locks ...let's not talk abt her eating disorder now shall we... so before i do something totally irrational i better get some rest ... i can smell another shift coming just around the corner..

r u more than a mediocre statistic?

In today's hyper-selling universe that we live in ... you are all a part of the captialist casualities... instituitionalized thru your so called education... you have lost your voice to be somebody... to be a contender... u wouldn't step up against an injustice in school, college or on your neighbourhood .... coz it doesnt bother you.. it's not a matter of concern to you.... in the capitalist's world... Recession is when your friend loses his job.. Depression is when you lose your job...

The cultural dilemma of yesterday's tradition and tommorow's technology throws u in one of the greatest juxtapositions of all time...do i go home to make microwaveable sambhar and pressure cooked instant idlis... or do i see success in life coming from having to try making my Yuppie existance urn into ur averages DINS household..

Is being mediocre what life is all abt ... and is conformity the end of the rainbow... why on earth can u stand up for what is right... why are ppl so obssessed with your senior officer might see that as insubordination... why are students so freaking scraed of reporting to a higher authority their prof/teacher sucks... why do they just keep sucking up to him/her.. and not just lose it and tell somebody this absolute moron in real life who cant get a real job has taken to teaching!!!

It's my honest anaylsis on the whole teaching proffession.. in a demographic of 100 students in a school class room environment ... 3-5 might be brilliant ...and should mostly like be stalwarts in the profession of their choice... then there 10-15 real bright kids... they are passionate abt certain things ... but undue pressures from parents abt making em follow a career they are least interested will turn these ppl into chornic depressed individuals.. who's true potential was always down played... and they were only made to see their flaws and follies... then there's the 20-25 ppl whose lives started out with not many great expectations and they are cool with what they have ... then there's the crowd that brings out teacher's ... ppl who actually dont have the grey matter to come out at the top .. whose ego's wont let them take a menial ok paying job in the blue collar work force.. these ppl are so frustrated that they didnt turn into those super heroes with dream jobs that they once dreamt abt ...

they take a look at the students they teach .. see the passion and drive these kids have.. and cringe at the ppl they once were and the wasted chance they were given.. they are so freaking frustrated in life at being now where close to the reality they had once wanted to be.. they make it their singular duty to trample the spirits of these youngsters ... turn them into obedient lil puppy dogs ... that havent figured out that that disapproval and disagreement isnt the same as disobiednece........

these kids are so ..omg.. what if he flunks me ... he'll make my life living hell... they have enslaved themselves ..and confined their living to the lowest low of human existance...a mediocre non-entity... a statistic... a roll number .. a tax payer... an identity number... you have thrown away a full fledged human life ... flushed it down the drains of corporate mediocrity ...and made ur self a statistic...
