Oh My God!! (Enna Koduma Sir Ithu!!)

Enjoyed two posts from fellow bloggers, found them related, correlated them and sharing those with you without any single change in the original posts(in italics)...

GOD is missing, and they think we did it.

Two young boys, ages 8 and 10, are excessively mischievous. They are always getting into trouble and their parents know all about it. If any mischief occurs in their town, the two boys are probably involved.

The boys' mother heard that a preacher in town had been successful in disciplining children, so she asked if he would speak with her boys.

The preacher agreed, but he asked to see them individually. So the mother sent the 8 year old first, in the morning, with the older boy to see the preacher in the afternoon.The preacher, a huge man with a booming voice, sat the younger boy down and asked him sternly, "Do you know where God is, son?"The boy's mouth dropped open, but he made no response, sitting there wide-eyed with his mouth hanging open. So the preacher repeated the question in an even sterner tone, "Where is God?!"

Again, the boy made no attempt to answer. The preacher raised his voice even more and shook his finger in the boy's face and bellowed, "Where is God?!"

The boy screamed & bolted from the room, ran directly home & dove into his closet, slamming the door behind him.When his older brother found him in the closet, he asked, "what happened?"

The younger brother, gasping for breath, replied, "We are in BIG trouble this time. GOD is missing, and they think we did it!"

And you know where God was!? That was breaking news in the process of searching;

God sends his resignation - I was supposed to make you in my image. Instead, you went ahead and cast me in yours. Enough is enough

This is the text of God’s resignation letter, which has been leaked to us by highly placed sources. The author wasn’t available for comment when we tried calling. If anyone would like to fill the vacancy created by this resignation, please write in to invisible@pinkunicorn.god.

Dear Humans

This is to inform you that I quit.

I have enjoyed being God for an eternity now—thank you for the opportunity—but I cannot bear the thought of going on and on like this.

Enough is enough.

I have informed my angels of my impending resignation, though I didn’t expect them to rush off to buy horns and black clothing right away. This Sunday will be my last day in office, after which I intend to spend some time with my family. (Ok, I’m kidding about the family. Heh.)

I started off badly, I confess. I was a beginning God and there was no road map, so what do you expect? My brief was to create a star, a planet and a satellite with a golf course. The rest of the universe wasn’t in the plans—that’s all the failed attempts. I was finally told that I could stop when I made earth, even though I got the golf course wrong. Still, I’m sure there are other entertaining things you can do on the moon.

Then, I was asked to populate the earth, and that’s when I had the most fun. I tried various funky things—I thought bacteria were pretty cool, and would rule the earth for sure. I also thought that of all the prehensile organs I gave my creatures, the bulk of the whale was much more useful than the opposable thumbs of humans. I mean, how much fun it must be to grip something with that?

But you guys triumphed, largely because I gave you greater computing power. Had I put in a few trillion neurons less, it could all have been different. (And perhaps I should have worked harder on the dinosaurs.) I admit I got carried away by you because you were the first creatures to notice that I existed. Look, validation matters, period.

Then, when you were just beginning to come out of caves and get civilized, I decided to take a nap. It’s hard work, all this creation, especially at the level of detail involved, and I was tired. And really, what could go wrong while I slept? Humankind was on the rise, using all its neural computing power to create new things, and I thought I’ll wake up refreshed and see a better world, and maybe I’ll get back to work on the moon after a snack or something.

Golf is good.

Well, it may seem like I’ve been absent for a long time, but a few millennia is nothing in galactic terms. So I wake up, rub my prehensile eyes, wrap them round the world, and what do I see? I see that you humans are running the place, which is fine, no issues with that. But then I see what you’ve done to me. I look here and go, “That isn’t me!” I look there and remark, “I don’t look like that!” I hear myself quoted and say, “I didn’t say that!” It’s a mess.

Now, I don’t want to get into little details, so I’ll just take up three broad points. One, I was supposed to make you in my image. Instead, while I was napping, you went and cast me in yours. I protest. I am not bigoted, misogynist, genocidal or egotistic. I look at how I’ve been portrayed in all the major religions and I’m appalled that anyone would even consider worshipping that.

The talk of worship brings me to my second point: Why have I been portrayed as corrupt? If I am supposed to reward people for their behaviour, why should prayer matter? I am not so insecure that I need to hear praises of me all the time? Or that I need temples or churches or mosques built to honour me, or any of the ritualistic things that you people do? You do not need to bribe me, Ok? Just behave well.

Three, why do you assume I need your puny protection? If anyone insults me and I’m petty enough to want to take action against them, there’s always lightning—or less subtle punishments such as Himesh Reshammiya music videos. Stop getting offended on my behalf, please. Especially the more devout ones among you, who embarrass me hugely.

I could go on forever about how all notions of me are corrupted, and used by men—yes, mostly men—for their own selfish purposes. But who will listen to me forever?

The one good thing I did was make you mortal, which I now realize is a feature and not a bug. Anyway, I accept culpability for creating a flawed product in the first place, and then for falling asleep. I’m disgusted at my failure.

Despite the anarchy I know it will create in heaven, which is getting kind of boring anyway, the only honourable option I have left now is to resign.

See you in Hell.

God.

futuristic

in continuation to my vision for future

It’s the brain which controls all the parts of body. You can’t judge the time even in milliseconds the brain sends signals to you organs. Just try... You can’t!! Before you think how, you would have executed the task. The brain is v.v.fast that you can’t easily calculate its speed. As I have written before the brain has billions of processors with limited formal memory.

It’s for sure that bio and nano techs are going to take over future. Nano enabled clothes are already on in the market and their specialty is that they control body temperature from the temperature outside. Nano has the power of converting thoughts to tasks. Bio tech enable ATM's are on, in our own TN state wherein thumb impression is the login and password for withdrawal of money. With those beginning, here is my idea;

The human nerves shall be equipped with bio enabled sensors that can process specific wanted behaviors into tasks. The tip of finger/any other specific location in the body act as touch points for triggering the tasks. Like this; if u willingly blink your eyelid for 3 times the object you see will be captured and stored in the nerves for some time., lets have that as 1 min., in the mean time you have a chip in your hand in which you make contact in a specific pattern, the image you saw will get stored digitally in the chip. You know what to do then!
Medical industry has started using artificial hearts. With such development I dont think its an uphill task to enable bio sensors in the nerves.

This might sound like the MI/AI/Matrix stuff...its not actually, this is just the local tripleR stuff...LOL...any comments/add-on??

swing till you swoooon...

I am hooked to the album jhoom barabar jhoom for this week. shankar-ehsaan-loy have come up with brilliant peppy tunes. The album is a sure hit and dont miss to hear those in a good stereo system or else you will not feel the music and my way will be to taste the music. Wondering how to taste music!! thats ecstasy...

The melody track from mahalaxmi; sukhwinder’s voice in the title track are my pick. Title track appears 3 times and each song excels. Now stop reading and listen to the tracks here. Keep swinging!

rain rain come again!!

It is always the unexpected happening every time, especially when it is an encounter with nature, that too in a city like Chennai. This is a season of mercury soaring to its peak. It’s horrible to be out at times like this in the city.

Surprisingly, there were showers on Saturday night. It lasted for just 15 min, but down poured heavily with thunder and lightening. I was watching a movie; electricity was cut; sneaking out that time, the thunder and lightening was far better than the visuals and sound in the movie ;) few lines flashed out and I penned those and was curious in knowing how they were and started disturbing my friends at that time of the day.

its raining! its raining!
with thunders and storm,
with lightening across the sky,
with an amazing pace,
in this summer,
in this city,

in my face,
its raining!!

Is it like the KG rhyme!? Yeah!! Sometimes, you need to go back to your childhood to enjoy certain things ( ;) LOL)

What made me raise my eyebrows was that the next day I heard that it had rained only in few parts of the suburbs and I was fortunate to have a feel of it this season!!

unnale unnale...

earlier this day, happened to listen to the track from the movie "unnale unnale". the lyrics went on like

netru enbadhu ninaivil illai,
naalai enbadhu kayil illai,
indru mattume nenjil undu thozha...

it sounded very good with the music rendered by harris. nice lines. in english it is

yesterday is not in thoughts,
tomorrow is not with us,
today is what we have in hearts...

so lively, past is gone, nothing can be changed even in future. just enjoy the days however it is!

vision for future!!!

Standing near the tower the other day I felt for not having a cam to click the aerial view of the city at that time of the day. I thought;

"How would it be if the lens I wear in my eyes be equipped with nano/bio technology and every blink of eyelid be converted to cam clicks getting a snap of moments and nothing I see great is missed to be cherished!?"

Hold on! There is a lot to think from here actually on how the pics can be converted to a physical form and the like. I am not getting into any scientific research now. But you can think on it and post it in comments. In the mean time is shall too think over it and try to post.

Dont comment its impossible! A typical PC has one processor and a lot of memory. A typical brain has billions of processors (neurons) and probably very limited formal memory.

C'mon, invoke the half baked scientist in you... think and jot down here!!! Nothing can stop you from imagining... :)

Update: Check out my next post futuristic on the same

moments!!!

I have roamed in this city through its length and breadth over years. There are still lots of places I haven’t been to. Some places like Mount Road, Kathipara Junction, Gemini Circle irritate me because of the traffic and also places like Pudupet, Egmore, Ritchie Street, Parrys Corner fascinate me for the pace, life moves on there.

But still this city has places and moments to be cherished;

Have you driven in Mount Road when there is no vehicle around?

I was doing this yesterday. I had to drive from Gemini to Tarapore Towers at 1 am in the morning. Believe me, that is a moment to be cherished. There were only mercury lamps glowing on the roads with yellow drill in the signals. Driving near TVS, the yellow drill in the signals till Tarapore Towers is something which you can witness only at that time of the day and it was simply awesome.

That’s not all; I was on top of a tower building with my office team for erecting up a new tower for our radio station. The view from there was new for me in this city. I felt new in this city that moment... Next time you pass on through Royola Towers, check out the new tower atop. That’s an exclusive tower for our radio station.

All my thought standing there near the tower was that I did not have a digi cam/mobile cam to click.

That’s where my vision for future triggered…Check out to know what it is…
