bomb such terror

"...that people don't learn for History.........is the biggest lesson History has to teach"
-Plato

With the media and public mood so engrossed into the politics of confidence vote the terror definitely have regained their confidence and vetoed our belief of having a upper hand. they have proved that they still posses the power to strike at will.
the biggest advantage of such acts are that they are changed form time to time to evict detection. What is not changed is the apathy and lousy Administration of such terror attack. As a leader had said - "There is no dearth of confidence in this country... only scarcity of people to put that on" the Indian scene is no better. even after so much of terror attack and losing so many sons to the terror strikes the country has now given up hope and hence this reflex action called Resilience.
Indians (and I mean Indians) by the lot are greatly tolerant. but as the adage goes he who timid is great sinner than the exploiter. Our Political compulsion do not allow us to take any decision. what we are best at- face saving and creating a few shameful records
1) Mumbai:- same city to be targeted 2 times.
2) Bangalore:- city rich in national asset(both public and pvt) but poor in securing them.
3) Ahmadabad:- City to be bombed by highest serial explosion.

now is the time to plough out old weeds of JTM(Jt Terror Mech.) CBM's. and criminal helping laws. The fact that when major nations were amending laws to reign in Anti terror law ,when we are the only country which repealed it mid way. I know what the official line may be. We know the present administration or the wanna be administration both are timid when it comes to being hard on terror. the people of India do not (actually cant should be the word) expect you to take drastic decision at least do some hard talk.
what is the use of such strategic relation with US when it still funds Pak on such issues. Its high time that we learn from past and take drastic steps to protect the life of every Indian citizen on Indian soil . Enough fence sitting on this issue. now we need to send out a clear message.

of mistakes and ignorances...both childish..

"Past looks better in prespective"
It is actually true. when i saw a young lad today fighting with group of boys abt being unfairly given out in cricket match. i remembered the way we used to fight.
hot blows were exchanged. abuses hurled and then ..a candy for the surrender. how instant were those fights and so easy resolution. now if we fight the issues may be petty the solutions are difficult. even saying a sorry becomes so heavy on heart. before it was a custom that compulsion to compromise. forgetting and forgiving were actual and beyond the crude idiom.
when we grow up we become more mature..for what i would ask. we start avoiding mistake in the eternal race to be perfect. why?. because we feel ashamed to say sorry. when we aren't going to be perfect why not make mistakes and say sorry. it better to target imperfection and hit it than to target perfection and miss it.
children always dreamed of being an adult. now at this stage it looks so better to be in the kids shoes where all our mistake will be forgiven and forgotten under the garb of innocence ignorance. Our stammering will be praised than perfect garrulous speech.
So go ahead and enjoy the tiny moments of making mistakes and saying sorry. make childish mistakes only worthy of innocent smiles.
perhaps it will be apt to put it this way "whats the use of being an adult if u cant be childish some times"

cartoons are forever

few days back i got to know that Cartoon Network is showing old cartoons in the special section boomerang after 10 PM(2200hrs). it was a treat laid down after a hectic day. nothing is more refreshing that to refresh actually relive those past days. cant do it fully due to requirement of time but atleast through these cartoons i can remember those old days.





i was a die hard fan of flintsones, jetsons and johny bravo. its heartening to see that all these are again being telecasted. Though these shows are too old and no debate over the clarity in current 3D's, but i think the crude print , if I may say so, has a charm. we know that perhaps we may not be able to go back to those days. The new tom and jerry cartoons though better produced and better written is not able to re-create the same magic that kept million of people glued to their tv set



the charm about these cartoons are the fact that they are so distant from reality. We know we are never going to use a firefly as a torch(flintstones) nor will planes become a personal transport(jetsons). perhaps it is the omnipresent factor of being so distant actually different which appeals all of us. these new cartoons are so real. hello...who need k serial saga in cartoons.



i hope people at cartoon network continue to keep old shows running and the future animators try to understand that it wasnt technology that limited chuck jones to make a cat and mouse chase into such a everloved and immortal story. it was actually creative genius..



and for the record shin chan is the only japanese cartoon that i love......
