Shine On You Selfish Diamond

Selfish people take so much of crap from everyone for being what they are. I couldn't find a better way to express who they are than calling them patriotic. I mean really, think about it. Lets say you are fighting a war against aliens. I am sure we would fight unitedly as one world against aliens. Now take the same people and pitch them against two nations and then against two states and go down until its between 2 people. Hmm I would say selfish people are patriotic in the narrowest field of view which being themselves. What about sacrifice ? well loosing others for their selfishness is their sacrifice for self patriotism. I rest my logic, now that's blinding !

Phone Support

When you are alone in US, long distance communication is so important. Well u have roommates, friends, colleagues and others with whom u interact everyday but phone keeps u sane while getting thru traffic jams or sleepless nites or when u r going on long drives. I am not talking about short "long drives" which girls like, I mean driving for hours. I think an ideal phone book should have following type of people.

Replicas - someone u talk to everyday, maybe multiple times. Catch up day to day events at end of everyday or use the person as a sounding board for every important decision u make.

Short stop - two or three people (preferably in diff timezones) whom u can call anytime and keep the phone down anytime without worrying what they will think... very good for traffic jams or times when u have to wait for someone or something.

411s - one person in each timezone who would have access to internet and would give u directions when u r lost or when u want to find something in those unearthly hours. Can't live without them.

Once upon a friends - people with whom u were close long time ago but not in regular touch now. You could call them out of the blue and talk to them for quite sometime. These people help you to be awake when u hit the road.

International hotline - Friends on the other side of the globe whom you call when u don't get sleep.

Other things u have to consider is whether u r friends r "In network" or not, Anytime or nite/weekend minutes, etc. Most of my friends do more than one task listed above. Thankfully "They never stop working for me !".

Simply Complicated

Ever wonder why some people are so complicated ? I think its becos they run a 8 queens program for every decision they make. For those who don't know what 8 queens problem is, try placing 8 queens on a chess board in such a way that they don't kill each other. Anyways for a simple question with a yes or no answer, I give you 8 queeens. Yes/No, Right/Wrong, Good/Bad, For you/For others, Short term/Long term, Easy/Hard, Cheap/Costly and finally Rational/Emotional. Well good luck computing !

What kind of drug are u ?

Here is another one on people and science. This time its not physics but chemistry, a different kind of chemistry. For guys there are different types of girls, for example a really boring girl is like Ambien(zolpidem tartrate) basically a sleeping pill or Zoloft(Sertraline hydrochloride), a girl who would lift you out of a depression or that girl who elevates your heart and respiration rates just like Ephedrine(Adrenaline) or girls who act like Valium(Diazepam) and calm you & take away your anxiety, finally who can forget those girls who give you those hallucinogenic dreams like Ecstacy(Methylenedioxymethamphetamine). Now what kind of drug would girls think ? Well ... if they are a drug what would you be ... A Placebo .... of course !

ANDAS 2 (pronounced as Un da sss)

This is a small one. Hardest part is to write down. I keep forgetting so here are few right from the oven.

Life is Chemistry, Physics and Biology... in that order !

Dreams are reflection of past not future well history repeats ....

Impossible means its not possible at the given point of time.

Truth is a well packaged lie.
