The Spoken Word

Dashed across this website http://subservientchicken.com/ There’s a video (no audio, so don’t worry if you don’t have headphones) display showing a man dressed as a chicken.Below it, there’s a textbox wherein you just type any instructions you want to give that chicken and he’ll do it right then and there for you to see on the video display.

The other day I switched on some Tamil channel and some movie trailer was been shown. A stunt scene was on and the hero of the movie was handling at least 2 dozen fighters, the way Neo handles the bad guys in The Matrix. In Matrix the base was such that one can believe and the way it is shown one can take things. Guy in the movie was a police officer and I later also found out that it was based on some true story. Now there is a limit to exaggeration. I am sure the name of the movie was 2 dozen gangsters and a police officer.

A father put his three year old daughter to bed, told her a story, and listened to her prayers which she ended by saying, “God bless Mommy, God bless daddy, God bless grandma and good-bye grandpa.”

The father asked, “Why did you say good-bye grandpa?”

The little girl said, “I don’t know daddy, it just seemed like the thing to do.”

The next day grandpa died.

It was just 6.00 and my brains had already stopped working. So I decided to give up and go home. Frankly speaking it was the kavi sammelan (A hillarious comedy show by humor poet) that I had to attend in the night which was responsible for my brain crashing and not willing to reboot for the day. Having no other choice, I mean no other brain to use I had to give up. I packed up and left. The actual time of the show to start was 8.15 but with the kind of audience this was targeted at people would gush in even just before the end. But since I didn’t want to miss even the slightest part of it I decided to be there at 8.30 exact. So I left my place at around 8.00 in the evening and according to my calculations I should have been there at eight thirtyish but as always I calculated erroneously.
