NO LOGO

My quest for eternal happiness continues....the pretty looking dame i passed by on the morning bus would testify. It is unnerving to be stared upon with a ferocity that only the most percerptive wouldnt misconstrue as a looming Norman Bates for a straight one hour. Well, this exihibitionism is certainly shocking for my style, one who rarely feels out-of-place in the customary wall paper setting in any social outing. How the hell do i explain this schoolboy antics, when apparently i swore undying "BLEEP" (better censored) to someone else not so long ago in another time.

"BLEEP", certainly the easily available commodity anywhere...add a couple of value-adds, the mandatory proclamations, the routine primroses, and the customary rituals...and Lo! the slickest package you ever find. Alluring to look at, Envied by the misled singles 30's club. Its peculiar properties leave me as befuddled and Cynical as ever.

Cynical-when a dear friend of mine walks out the "perfect-walking-into-the-sunset" relationship, citing reasons apparently unknown. After bawling their lungs out to everyone in sight, they apparently lost their voice......

Cynical-When another dearer friend embarks upon his n-th "Casablanca". Says he is in love....and giving Shahrukh a run for his money by his antics...but then doesnt "see a future" to it (Aah! well the stuff of the greatest love stories...our own desi "Rhett Butler"). Before this turns to be the mother of all gripes for me and all the parties involved....im only cynical with the very feeling, or the way the feeling is misrepresented by various parties.

Rest assured, im no puritan...nor am i your average Ku-Klux-Klan member screaming for uprightness of society. I would have been an ardent supporter of Khushboo's statement if i wasnt shit scared of the libel cases waiting for me. I no longer find souls who would swear by it, and not use the feeling in some way to fulfil some other baser motive. Loss of innocence? I dont know...Jilted-lover syndrome??? (I hope not!!)...Get-smart pills?....

Whatever maybe the reason, i find it hard to digest people venturing into intimacy and screaming hoarse about being "unsure" of their feelings and then tagging it with a overrated label. Why call it "BLEEP!" when all you crave is the excitement, all you wanted was companionship.....

Meawhile our caped crusader gets ready for his next foray to rescue his damsel from the tedium of daily life......Keep watching this space!!

Bye to my hazaar- denizens of the cyberworld,
Aloha!!
