Congratulate me

The retards of social will recognize the phrase as one of many used to solicit clicks and meaningless trolling of the internet to ogle at faces or simply gape at what other people are up to.

So in high spirits I send out this world wide communique to ask those that are doing nothing but scratching their unmentionables while clicking on bait to congratulate me for the below accomplishments -


  • Occupying this planet without dying for four decades - that is right - it was my birthday today - which as matter of another perspective says I managed to not kill myself - for another year - again - that is definitely worthy of thumbs up and loads of one word comments such as Congrats!
  • I have managed to survive at my meaningless job for a decade - and not kill myself.  Congrats again!  How do you do it - could you write a book?  Please?  There is a whole gamut of organisms yearning to learn.
  • I have been reluctant to post pictures of myself - but what if I said I was hot (and I do not have the flu -not today)?  Congrats on my hotness.
  • I self promoted myself successfully as being congratulation worthy - on this blog - and that clearly deserves a Congrats - again!
  • I finally communicated with my (living) spouse to tell her how hot she also is - and congratulated her for something that  I cannot remember - but the point is I should get a return congrats just for that effort.
  • Finally I did all this at the expense of millions of creatures who hold bogus, inflated, high profile Silicon Valley company stock.  CONGRATULATIONS!!!

Of chocolates

I like chocolates. Godiva Dark with Almonds - not sure of the naked woman on the horse to be the icon of some choice cocoa based products but tastes good. Started in Belgium but now owned by some Turks. Cadburys - Fruit and Nut Milk Bars - awesome combination of dried fruit pieces along with a medley of nuts makes your toungue dance - started by a Brit now owen by Kraft USA. Lindt Hazelnut spheres - made by a Swiss confectioner are divine balls that melt in your mouth with a lingering nutty taste Ghirardelli Milk Crisp Squares - crunchy and light these milk squares are easy on the palate but pack some serious calories - all good I say! Originally founded by an Italian who moved around till he landed in SF Bay today also owned by the Swiss Lindt empire.

Columbia SC

 The Palmetto state.  One of the confederate kinds. History dating couple centuries back.  We visited the capital yet again this time to take in the SC State Museum. Occupying the former digs (literally remodeled) of an erstwhile cotton mill this structure is an amazing piece of reimagination.  Four floors of excitement for kids and young at heart alike. Located on the shores of the Congaree River formed when the Broad meets up with the Saluda River, this edifice is approx. 60 years old.  The front of the building has a more modern planetarium that was added about a decade ago.  The museum itself has different areas of interest segregated on each of its four floors. The first floor has gift shop and a diorama of some of the local geography including the swamps and the state beaches with audio guides to help understand what fauna thrives locally. The second floor is all about natural history and showcases animal kingdom that may have survived on this latitud...

But What If We're Wrong?

I attempted to read this book by author Chuck Klosterman backward to forward but it started hurting my brain so I decided to stop and do it like any other publication in the English language.  Start from page 1 and move to the right. Witty, caustic and thought provoking this is a book you want to read if you believe that the status quo might, just might be wrong. At times bordering on being contrarian about most things around us it tries to zero in on the notion of what makes anything believable and certain in our minds.  The fact that there is a fact itself is ironic.  Something analogous to the idea that you can never predict the future because there is no future. Many books and movies have tried to play on this concept - best that I recollect (I think I am) was 'The Truman Show'.  This book by Klosterman attempts to provoke the reader to at least contemplate that what they think they know may be wrong. He uses examples like concept of gravity, and how it ...
