BLOGGA......Please

Is it just me or there's something wrong with it....

Has it ever happened to you that you tuned into a news channel and all that you can hear is utter non-sense!!

For example, you switch to some news channel and for last 24 hours that channel is covering some fallen actress going to Rehab or something....or worse ...showing the pics and videos of a hooker for her involvement in a political scandal....and then you think..I just saw it on E! News (or VH1)...isn't it their territory??
Further, every other news channel is covering how mankind will habitat on Mars in 21st century... while the scientific community still can't get a manned mission to mars working, forget building habitat for future immigrants....and not to mention...we can't control our own civilization on this planet quite well and are talking about acquiring other planets..

Then, there are so called analysts who are so confident that they will buy Hell at the price of earth! Imagine a person, who in his whole life couldn't make money because of his incapacity and probably that's why he is still a TV analyst, is giving lecture to everyone concerned about how to make money??
I mean if it was for Bill Gates or Warren Buffet, I would listen to it ...heck I will take a sick leave, go home and note down few points...
but have you ever wondered taking an economic advice from your maid?
So is it that when a suit-clad tied person talks economics, our perception changes and we assume he knows his stuff.. regardless of what he achieved in his life??

When someone applies for a job of Teacher, the least requirement is he/she should have finished the course that he/she is about to teach...so isn't it binding on the analysts, too??
It is like taking a political advice for Presidential Campaign from a person who couldn't get elected in a town council in one-member race!!!

or For that matter,
To all the sports-fan like me, how sickening is it, when a retired high school basketball/football player comments on Lebron's/ Kobe's technique OR has a advice for Brady/Manning....

(For those of you, who think Cricket is still the most popular sport in the world.....how do you feel when L.Sivaramakrisna talks about flaws in Warne's style or Saba Karim talking about what Tendulkar should do in future to get more runs)

Imagine a bathroom singer like me giving advice to Metallica/Pink Floyd or Beatles about music compositions or trying to give singing lessons to Kishore Kumar or Lata Mangeshkar...

That's the reason why you need BLOGGA.......

When there was a writer's strike in Hollywood, and as Bill Maher couldn't continue his segment of NEW RULES, he started a new segment called BLOGGA.. PLEASE.. realizing the fact that he doesn't have the talent to come up with New Rules, and doing the rational thing....may be it's time for the news media to do the same, and since it is evident that they don't have enough sensible material to go on air for even half-an-hour, they should have BLOGGA..PLEASE..for 24 hours a day....

So that finally, people like me who enjoy news, sports will have a good time watching it!!!

Research is INSANE!!!

Research is really something interesting, if you will. Being a PhD student myself, I think I have earned the right to comment on it.

Take the example of pharmaceutical companies for instance:

A lot of resources are utilized for finding out the cure for ED (Erectile Disfunction) or the male enhancement pills or Viagra (for layman). That is to say, when the population of the world is growing like anything, consuming all the natural resources at a speed of light, now the scientists want to give Grandpa a chance to help this cause. I mean how insane is that???

When everyone else is talking about the deaths from cancer and AIDS and dire consequences of lot many of these diseases, the research is focused on DIET PILLS!!!....not only that, the funny part is they make fool out of everyone by saying that you don't need WATER..you need PROTEIN WATER.....without talking about the calorie content of it, so naturally a person is going to go FAT....but the bug doesn't stop there, then to take care of the problem one takes diet pills....does some work out (if possible, if unaviodable), while drinking the same PROTEIN WATER...cause guess what that's what your body needs!! ....How Insane is that??

But, this is not the end of it...

Then everyone is talked into newer and much more crazier diseases..for example...Restless Legs Syndrome....of course you have it, everyone has it ....if you don't move your butt from the couch over a period of time you will definitely develop the restless leg syndrome.

Moving on, one can see the ads about the sleeping pills, and people in the ads waking up so fresh, smiling, having heavenly feelings for just waking up... COME ON NOW..when was the last time you woke up, even if it is after a 15-20 hour sleep, smiling happy and all that....(unless someone promised you sex if you can just get up).

Now you might be thinking I am against Pharmaceutical companies ..and I am one of "them"..not really....

Will talk about other fields soon..

Enjoy!!!

Existence of GOD

Here is something about Existence of GOD!!!



I am not an atheist to be frank, However I believe that Man created GOD and in that God I trust.I can't understand how God created Man....cause if that's the case and if at all God Created the entire planet and life on this planet...then was he short of colors that he created human beings with different colors...and hey if at all he was fond of colors...why he didn't created PINK or RED colored people...is it to give us a clue that HE is a MAN...



Well there are plenty of things that one will never be able to explain with the concept of GOD....for example, IF GOD loves his followers, and he grants their wishes, then Why the Stock Market doesn't show unfathomable oscillations OR why is it that Poor children keep on dying in third world countries? and if at all the whole idea is to make sure that you go to heaven after death, which religion should you follow, cause every other religion says, UNLESS you believe in OUR GOD, you will go to hell!!!



Funny as it may sound, the believers should not waste their time in convincing non-believers, however, the believers themselves are so unsure of the existence that they want to reassure themselves while telling others that ..yes ..GOD exists...



Usually the so called religious regions are always in poverty...so what does that mean??When people get rich they forget about God, and still God doesn't punish them..on the other hand..majority of the third world countries are highly conservative..religious, rigorously follow their religions (whatever it may be ...that is not the point of discussion now)..and still God probably is so busy in punishing those who have forgotten him...that he simply ignores his followers...Ironical as it may seem....that's what happens IF YOU BELIEVE in GOD!!!



Fortunately for me, I do believe in God, however I think that GOD is just the epitome of HOPE, LUCK, COINCIDENCE...



THINK ABOUT IT !!!
