To Read or Not to Read

I am going to come out straight and say it out......People these days can't spell a sentence properly because they don't read anymore than that abbreviated monstrosity termed "TXTING", yes it does miss an "e" because guess what.....that "e" takes a bit too much of space. Yeah that "e" got punished for being too eager to expand the existing terms of agreement on space!! I have no clue what that line meant but if we look closely it has a lot of "e" there!!!!
The reasons for not reading can be many, why should I read a book when I can watch the movie which would eventually be made if it is such a damn fine book. I could be playing on my XBox/PS 3/Wii rather than sitting somewhere doing something as nerdy as reading. I am too stupid to read. I don't really know but someone told me the answer to all my problem reading related lie in one word ----- DYSLEXIA. Oh yes, the last reason has become somewhat of a popular choice of excuse/answer to ward off the evil notions of reading.
But to be fair to this lot who don't read, the whole notion of reading is being killed by our lack of imagination. We can't really keep anyone's attention for a whole 10 minutes and we are trying to get them to spend a few hours with a book. The only worse turn we have taken is to get over reading nice books, we have turned to Magazines. Ahh the blesses world of magazines where we get to start our introduction lesson into stalking. How you ask? Well when you start getting obsessed about what your favourite "star" eats, drinks, drives, where they dine, what colours they like, if they sleep on the left side or the right, then my friend you have started on that path. How would I know.....well lets not go there and just a word of advise, you should really switch off that light while you change, that's the last thing I wanted to see.
Coming back to magazines, it has now become your advisor on everything, it will tell you what to eat, how to get that six pack abs you have always wanted but spent too much time reading magazine to obtain it, how you can make the missus (broadly used includes girlfriends, wife, partner) scream for more. Yeah some of them have got porn stars to give you tips coz who else would know anything about that one than them. Another word of advise, stick to wild life and nature photography, you are pretty useless when it comes to clicking.
I have just noticed that I have written a bit more than even I would want to read so my last words here would be.....avoid the pain, just watch a movie for anyone who watched the "Da Vinci Code" was well punished for it.

As for some tips on stalking.....watch out this space.

Of being spoilt but not rotten

Time and again, someone or the other always comes up to me and goes "You know what, you seem to be a nice guy but you are very spoilt...aren't you?". Now this isn't a question....or well doesn't seem to appear like one, coz I for one am not going to answer that in the postive yet I know that the remark is not entirely incorrect........I am a nice bloke to say the least.
Which brings me to the point as to what can be classified as "Spoilt". Is it when you have to have something you really want and end up getting it or is it when you throw the biggest, baddest and the shittest hissy fit to demand something which you want. If it is the previous one then I have to admit that I am partially guilty of being spoilt so to say. But if it is the later, then I am dead right in denying that I have anything even remotely close to be associated with that term. I mean that is just being spoilt rotten, yes there are apparently different variations of being spoilt or so I am told anyways.
Coming back to me being labelled Spoilt, it usually stems from people judging me on how I splurge money on items which I deem is essential and which they look at being luxury. How can spending on a TV (so its a 42 inch plasma...bite me), a mobile phone (am in the process of getting an iphone as my current contract has expired.....yes BECAUSE my current contract has expired!!), a nintendo Wii (everyone needs a gaming console.....its the core to being existent and in turn helping the economy.........of Japan, which has been pretty shit in recent times), a XBOX 360 (which I haven't bought yet but am thinking about it...again I am thinking about helping the economy...thank you very much) be viewed as being spoilt. In these turbulent times of the GFC, funny term that as in the beginning it always made me wonder what football club it was, the only way out is that if we start buying and thus pushing our economy to be back to its healthy state. If this noble cause is all that is required to be termed spoilt then my friends I totally accept the title and am very proud of it.

As of wanting things then and there and getting it, I totally lay the blame on the best two people in the whole wide universe..............................my Mum and Dad. I love you both! :)

Life's a Pie

Welcome to Life's a pie. What does it mean? Heck I have no idea, it could be that they both look good from where you see it but sometimes they don't taste that awesome. I believe it has got to do something with the ingredients used. Think about it, both life and pie need some finger licking, tongue clicking, gut filling ingredients to make it worth it.
For those thinking this has something to do with food, I am sorry to disappoint you but it doesn't neither does it have anything to do with life....well not in the literal sense....although everything we do has to have something to do with life so we come back in a circle. Now if you think about it both life and pie always have a full circle to it. Interesting isn't it.
