There is a growing breed of young people who check their emails and twitter replies the first thing in the morning. The cell phone lies by the pillow and with sleep eyes half open, they touch the buttons, bringing alive the screen, waiting, hoping, wanting a reply, a communication, from someone, somewhere.
We are spending more and more of our daily quota of time staring at a screen, of a TV, computer, laptop, or a cellphone. To what end?

Year Of The Tiger
There are more pictures at this link. But I found this one interesting. This reminds me of monkeys asking for peanuts. This also scares me a little. For reasons I don't know.
An Update Finally...
Hello,
I am sure no one is waiting with a bated breath for updates to this space and one of the reasons I am doing this is that I don't like un-updated blogs. I write lot of other blogs and there are many where the readers of each blog don't even know the readers of the other blogs. That might be bad from a PR point of view, but I like it that way. I have tried to limit my spread on internet in a way that those blogs and this name stay apart and are different in content and in readership but Google is a tough tool. And anyway, if someone is determined to find something about anyone, they eventually will, and they do. It all depends on the level of madness of a person.
One person's madness is another person's dedication.
We all need some amount of madness in our life. I believe that we are all mad in some little private part of our soul. There is a part in each of us that wants to sing, to dance, to make something to utterly beautiful, amazing and horrondous that everyone who sees, hears or thinks of it, cringes in fear and terror. But we are subdued. We are told not to do things. We are taught to fall in line, go with the flow, and do things that have been done by thousands before us, and might also be done by those who will come after us.
Do you get where this is going?
We are living in strange times. I don't have any answers because if I had i'd not be asking the questions.
Maybe more later.
