We are in touble?

The ombudsman reports that several prominent signs are now emerging that we may indeed be in trouble. 1. Porn industry has shut down .. filming new movies that is .. could portend other problems 2. People are hiding behind underwear by wearing them like masks 3. Certain people are using underwear to make bombs 4. Although beauty and value are in the eyes of the beholder it now costs the equivalent of a small car to purchase sneakers - perhaps that is a good alternative to ditch the car and just wear sneakers to walk but I doubt that.. 5. Thinking outside the box is becoming harder as there are way too many boxes piled high and deep to avoid being boxed in 6. An insider look comes standard with anything that is sold outside - for someone wanting to look from the outside in 7. Latest news indicates that the IN N OUT burger (talk about confusing the outside the bell crowd - Taco bell that is) chain may have bought unhealthy cows to the table thereby causing an exodus of all those that were planning to be IN for the long term There are discussions whether there is a more serious characters (cousins of the anopheles) lurking on the EAST NILE..assuming there are two Niles - have not heard confirmation from the Africans.. a predator drone has been sent out to scoop air samples..it was delayed due to the urgency of the mission to MARS, which sucked resources, since the cure for retarded behavior is assumed to be present on MARS..

Presumptive Society

Today's world is hyper connected.  I am not so sure what it means but you hear it a lot.  It is probably hyper but not sure how connected it is.  Sugar (fermented or not) is available in many ways than before and so getting hyper is easy.  It is probably more a threat than cocaine since it is sold legally. And what is this connected stuff?  Most people I encounter seem disconnected from reality.  So going back to this assumption that we are connected there are subtle and no so subtle instances of how brands and companies and middle men try to portray someone - A linkedin profile for somebody working for X years at a place advertises to the connected network that so and so is CELEBRATING X years @ Such and Such Inc. Do we know if (s)he is celebrating or cringing?  Perhaps a better way to portray will be - So and So LASTED X years @ such & such inc. Then it exhorts the readership to go ahead and congratulate them for this lasting effe...

Of Jims and Johns

Here is another essay on the subject of first names. As in birth names. Or names provided to an offspring at birth. While the developed world tends to shy away from the exotic like Refrigerator or Coca Cola for their new production there is a plethora of Jims and Johns and Bobs or Robs. Speaking of which I do not think there is a categoric decision point at the time of birth if a child will be hereafter called as Bob. I mean have not yet met a toddler called Bob or Rob for that matter. At some point though the parental instinct to mouth out multiple syllables runs out and they switch from calling the crawler Robert to simply Robbie to Rob. Now speaking of - it is strange that the name sounds like something you would not want Rob to do - i.e. Rob anyone. Then why call someone that? After all Rob Peter to Pay Paul is not exactly a maxim to live a young life? Is it? Perhaps Peter or Paul might want to have a say in it? Then there is this matter of going to the John. Why degrad...

On the go(zay masta) in Japan again

Cool cat the Japanese are Tokyo at dusk  My second visit to this land of the rising sun after almost a decade. Back then clearly I was wet behind the ears product manager and likely didn’t pay attention to all (efficient) things Japanese. But today I did and of course continue to be impressed. It is as much the obvious stuff like on time travel that is both clean and comfortable and all that which makes it possible. The impressive landmark and landscapes that these humans have put together despite their cramped (or because of it) surroundings and precarious geological conditions could amaze a novice architect among us. But it’s also the little things that someone had to think about which have a phenomenal impact on day to day lives that make the Japanese stand apart. Below are few random examples- 1. Providing a very fine machined wooden toothpick in every packet of wooden chopsticks. The said chapsticks are simply set on the To Go counter of any food vendor/ convenience store wher...
