Bankrupt

 Yes there are a lot of those floating around.  In America.

No money, no assets - many so called rich and famous ones too - underneath their Gucci's are.

But I am talking about moral or social bankruptcy.

Covid exposed this a lot.  Look at dog ownership rates.  They spiked last year. Typically normal behaving Desis also adopted this habit.  In droves.

Unless you are blind and need an animal to avoid you from stumbling why are humans hanging on to canines?

Are we really so socially bankrupt that we have to resort to a tail wagging mental organisms for company?

And not to mention the paraphernalia that goes in keeping this addendum in tip top shape.

Then there is the defecation management which gets to me.  Ownership of said animal seems to not convey taking charge of bladder movement and rectal functions on the owner.  That is left to the animal's whims and public surfaces.

Leave a mark where you go Roofus they say.

And speaking of control why are these dumb  creatures not on a leash when in public?  Some are and many are not.  It should be required to keep two poorly functioning species tied together at all times. 

Not doing so should result in jail time - just like DUI.  DWL - dog without leash.

Letting one loose is dangerous to all other citizens going about their humdrum lives.

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...

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...

Greasy Dra'ch'ma

With all the furor in the media around Greece for the past couple of years I thought it would be good to list all things Greek that people use in common parlance - 1. Some of us are familiar with Greek history as being where the world's largest organized scam was born - called the Olympics. At the time this courier delivered a message by running a large number of miles and that got converted into a spectator sport. Nobody thought about what this implied? Fedex does not use any of the marathon runners instead relying on bio diesel trucks so not sure where we went from courier delivery to extracting money for tickets to watch people balance themselves on a pommel horse - which by the way is quite different from a Trojan Horse - 2. which brings me to the next invention from Greek mythology that finds use today - except used in the computer virus arena. This innocuos program is accepted by a computer since it looks friendly only to unleash undesirable effects leading to loss of s...
