    I'm back.

    Everything takes so long to load.
    Or maybe I'm just impatient.
    For I have known them all already, known them all:
    Have known the evenings, mornings, afternoons,
    I have measured out my life with coffee spoons;
    I know the voices dying with a dying fall
    Beneath the music from a farther room.

    So how should I presume?

    What movie should I watch tonight?
    I'm weary with right-angles, abbreviated daylight,
    Waiting for a winter to be done.
    Why do I still see you in every mirrored window,
    In all that I could never overcome?

    I totally love that movie.
    Shame it was made before the song came out.

    Is there a such thing as being too perfect?
    No, not possible.
    As far as I'm concerned you can't love anyone else unless you love yourself.
    And I, no doubtedly, love ME!!
    And flowers. And music. And other things. And you guys.

    Sorry gentlemen, the winner is Woman of the Year (since I've already watched The Philadelphia Story and The African Queen today, I figured I might as well round it off with some more Katharine)

    What am I thinking now?
    Today I have to write a report on what is happening in Dubai, a country that glories in their oilfields, top-notch tourist centers, lavishly furnished 7 starred hotels, skyscrapers, man-made palm islands and the kind of lavished and sumptuous life style they live with and the like. Now the empire or the castle made of sand are on the verge of collapse and this is another big shock following the meltdown or collapse of the economies of the western world. This thought, combined of course with many others have occupied me today. Today more than at any time or epoch in history we can read things happening across the world rapidly and we kind of with that streaming abysmally for future shocks or downturns. I am confused with so much development in the world today our position is getting rock founded or shaking

    Truth.
    Unless someone like you cares a whole awful lot, nothing is going to get better, it's not.

    What I am thinking? I have a bunch of ideas, streaming one after another. Ideas pop up involuntarily one after another in sequence or in an endless series, one idea overlapping another in sequels. I am not contemplating; for contemplation is a mechanical process, something that concentrates our minds upon a particular pattern or blueprint that leaves us tired finally. But the one I am talking about comes automatically not manually or thru efforts. at times I dream of making huge amounts of money and dominating all, my bosses, relatives, friends and making them dependent upon me and at other times I feel all this is of no use, absurd and incongruous for there is no point in dominating others, for everything will pass at the end of the day and then I switch to the idea of spirituality, then comes the idea of empirical science. I seek refuge in rationalism thinking that our points of view must be guided by scientific observations, not by idealistic ones, for idealism has no veracity or substance in it. I have a mixed bag ideas, as my mind oscillates from one set of theories to another every so often.

    Feliĉan Zamenhofan tagon!
    Mi pensas ke mi devas paroli iom esperante hodiaŭ tamen mi forgesis la plejparto de lingvon.

    (in translation: Happy Zamenhof Day! I think that I should speak a bit Esperanto today but I have forgotten most of the language)

    I wonder if I should make a new thread about today or would it be just ignored - surely there must be other freaks here who have during some period of their life dabbled with Esperanto - don't you think so?
    If you believe even a half of this post, you are severely mistaken.
