Dishoom Dishoom

Dishoom..dishoom… does that keep echoing?

Of course, it should.  All the woods in the sub continent use the same decibels to show any sequences of disagreement resulting in physical clash between the antagonists in the movie…..in simple words, fight sequences in Indian movies…. Not any more in post Vijayakanth and Balaiyya period movies (their eye movements are enough to terrify the villains, no more fights and the best thing is everyone else is also learning and adapting themselves to such novel techs). But that sound just makes me more nostalgic.

This is the sound that used to come when the good guy and the bad guy beat the crap out of each other. The fight could be for money, land, family, pride but most of the time it is driven by estrogen and testostrene .

The punches in the movies are umpteen right from the very early days i.e., from the days of Harischandra and Alam Aara. I honor punches as the most pristine creativity of human mind. With the advent of new technologies and styles, more and more of these ingenious “dishooms” were replaced by “Punch dialogues”, each one of which is worth more, each one weighs more than many physical punches. These don’t hurt the villain any more, but you know who gets affected eventually…. 

This post is purely out of nostalgia, a tribute to TR… (But I shall try to be meaningful as far as possible...).

Bunch of Punches:

Bed over Bills:

This one is self explanatory……Graduate students (of course not the newbies)…..wake up, the first one is for you….wake up, set your bed right in the morning and don’t pay fine for late fees….

Dead over Deals:

This just got over for 2010. Again, adrenalin rush for graduate students….I am proud to be in the company of $3..textiles, $7-8 ..electronics and $68..electronics. Thanks to these Richies, my friends, I am proud of you people,  Kidna, Dr.Asbestos and Single Singam.

P.S. The dots above represent units, tens and hundreds place.

Head over Heels:

OK....Let’s get back…. (11-30-2010). Let me do some justice to the post before I go back.


Mud over meals:

It’s Haiti. Food prices have soared so high in the island that Haitians are making mud cakes to neutralize the stomach acid. Will this work? And for how long, although it’s been quite some time now? Is there anyone else listening to all these or is it just Bill Clinton again….poor fellow.

Are the Yashodas in Haiti seeing  Multiple Universes yet?

Red over reels:

I am waiting, my nerves edging. RGV stole the show in the first one. Now, its Surya’s magic to work, December 3^rd . The reels are red.

Said over Seal:

Wikileaks is letting out the documents. This is like walmart on sale….The classic dilemma…nope its trilemma….

1.      1. Low quality (authenticity)

2.       2.  Inexpensive

3.       3. Now, low quality and inexpensive stuff on sale!!!!

Are you going to buy it?  Even if you trust and buy, does it change the situation? You might want to buy another one as stephney…. It does not fit me atleast….I don’t believe in choices. I am not going all in, so I am folding.

Wed over Wheels:

Dum Dum Dum…..Congratulations … Soks, Aalwar, Abhay, Poornima…Taking the next step in to future…... 

Zed over Zeals: Absolutely meaningless….top contender for tamil movie punch dialogues….Probably when TR acts in Goutham V. Menon movie….you see, its English….”.. I love you Daddy, Shouldn’t you be carrying all your papers? Zed over Zeals…..”. And this holds the fort.  Aiiii dandanakka...danakkunakka....

Crunch of the Bunch:

Confluence of the Star Power: M1

 “On a long enough time scale….”well, it does not work that way. PhD does not need a long time either. It also went that a-way now. But, for the sake of preserving science (pardon me, an engineer now) and for the rhetoric, giving the dashing first lines of the not so great follow-ups, let us once again consider Tyler Durden, “on a long enough time scale, everyone’s survival rate drops to zero”. Well, this is absolutely logical and hence true. Applying the same logic and playing with continuum of experience in which events pass from the past through present to future, simply called as tampering with time concepts, it was found that some of the impossible explanations could be worked upon with precision and accuracy and finally not ending in anything worth mentioning because time travel in reality is still bull shit.

The lulls continued to the extent that I pulled in some guests who wanted to continue to their discussion in here and contribute to the Drops of the Blue Arrow. These guests need no introduction. Each one has established a style in their field and is a maven.

The conversation come backs,

Sir Futon Yawn: “I think Jesus was a compassionate, super-intelligent gay man who understood human problem."

Mean Aliciaseth II.5 (with disinterest and indifference): “Like all the best families, we have our share of eccentricities, of impetuous and wayward youngsters and of family disagreements.”

Solomon PappayyaD( very strong, not afraid at all): “I do not need the idea of God to explain the world I live in.”

Dontsay Zohan( hopefully conscious): ”As sick as it sounds, a reality show might help, actually. At least then people could get the truth.”

Cockry Bird (Excited): “I am looking for a lot of men who have an infinite capacity to not know what can't be done.”

Majid Magneticfield (Unassumingly pointing at KHi,): “I could make the whole of Manhattan disappear into that amazing butt.”

Doyenmas Bambi (With Disapproval): Strength does not come from physical capacity. It comes from an indomitable will.”

Sill Windows (from the doors): Our Success has really been based on partnerships from the very beginning.”

Sailor Gift ( musical, hoping for good answer): “I love thinking about how we treat each other, and the crazy way that one person can feel one thing and another can feel totally different.”

Gown of Quack (cold and questioning): “Children say that people are hung sometimes for speaking the truth.”

Cobra Baaprey (Broad Smile): “Biology is the least of what makes someone a mother.”

Cola Kahn (microphone and camera): “This is about children…..and people not giving them better choices.”

Mean Aliciaseth II.5 (authoritative): “Work is the rent you pay for the room you occupy on earth. .. Grief is the price we pay for love.”

Solomon PappayyaD (condescending): “Sometimes legends make reality, and become more useful than the facts.”

Majid Magneticfield (Enthusiasm): “I’m just waiting for people to start asking me to make rain disappear.”

Futon Yawn (Sighing): “There’s time for everyone, if only they learn, that the twisting kaleidoscope moves us all in turn.”

Gown of Quack (Valorous): “Act and God will act.”

Dontsay Zohan (still hoping the consciousness): “I’m not going to deny the fact that I tried pot. I hated it.”

Sailor Gift (feeling): “I wish all teenagers can filter through songs instead of turning to drugs and alcohol.”

Doyenmas Bambi (Peace): “To believe in something, and not to live it, is dishonest.”

Cobra Baaprey (Same): “You CAN have it all. You just can't have it all at once. Passion is energy. Feel the power that comes from focusing on what excites you.”

Sill Windows: “I believe that if you show people the problems and you show them the solutions they will be moved to act.”

Cola Kahn: “I’m excited by the complete shift in attitudes….”

Cockry Bird: “Time and money spent in helping men to do more for them is far better than mere giving.”

Spicy Combinatorial of flaccid cheeks at sea

The antonym of mercury rising is not approaching very fast even in the stymied state of Ohio or I can even say, the stymied state of Akron in every sense. But stoicism does not and cannot differentiate between a blessing and a curse; not even when under the premises of handicappedness. Wait, this is the closest English word that delivers what I need to deliver and also sounds more technical!!

What has followed the slump?

The question can easily be answered even by the two headed trolls from Scandinavia. It is of course another big period of uncertainty full of hollow promises showcasing doubtful future and rendezvous with oscillating SAFETY BEACONS ;).

 PS : “The intelligence perceived in the above paragraph is presupposed and hence is preposterous”.

The tour to Asia is not something new but the route taken within Asia is what is astonishing.

                                                            http://atlanticsentinel.com/2010/11/obamas-india-visit-overlooks-geopolitics/

Years of coupling of the split-pot states and appeasing the low interest communist credit card state seems to be taking a new change. Three days in India and then …then ….it is Indonesia; there is no mention of Pakistan in the itinerary. This is probably one of the major signals of a change of strategy, or at least, a message that has the meaning, “Patience has limits”. The inability to tackle house bred global violence from Pakistan is starting to show its effect in the open now, again stressing the view that “Patience has limits”. President Obama has completed his three day tour in India and is on his way to the G20 summit in South Korea. Pakistan did not make it to the itinerary. A tour to India by any US leader in the recent past has always meant that Pakistan was in the picture too.  

I have always believed that President Obama is different at least a bit if not by leaps and bounds. I am a big fan of the orator in him although I lack the ability to comment on the politics involved. This new message is audible.  But I wish that the Indian counterparts understood the seriousness of the message delivered. It cannot be a straighter message in the global politics. Common India, make hay while the sun shines.

The wal-mart credit card dragon is also not due a visit now. Fareed Zakharia says that it’s because of the Chinese attitude towards Japan. The Senkaku island issue is fresh and is gaining momentum between the nation states and every Asian state is looking up to United States as a counter balance for China.

Although, President Obama has the record for number of meetings with the dragon counterparts, he seems to be listening to the voices of the weaker sections of the nation states and that is another reason he is climbing up the ladder at least in my favorites. Looking forward to the G20:It’s only a matter of time when we will be able to witness either the trend reversal or the trend setter.

With a homing missile, there is the usual story now, “He has looted India more than the British”. A fancy number, Rs. 1,76,379 Crores, and a statement , “People power can alone save the nation” and the talk of the nation is A. Raja, Union telecommunications minister. Politics, not just in India, but world throughout is synonymous with corruption. In India, add one more C, coalition also. The difference between the guys who get exposed and who don’t is their experience and lack of diplomacy. The more experienced and the more diplomats go through this game unscathed while the less experienced are victimized. After getting soaked for so long in this kind of game, I don’t think it is worthwhile to play petty games with politics. The government should probably legalize corruption. At least we can reduce the hullaballoo and the raucous caused due to these petty things. Instead, every authority should be measured on the quality and quantity of service that was oriented towards the betterment of the society. This is the age old strategy of cornering a mouse giving it whatever it wants. It will be too lazy to run around making it easier for the victim.  A cornered mouse never fights. I know, the antagonists are never going to accept this strategy and there will be concerns regarding the mental state when this was written. But, I bet, this is the only solution if at all every concerned individual or society is looking to solve the problem of corruption. 

The most intriguing quote is the “I want to live in peace”. Zulqarnain Haider has fled to London. Isn’t that a shame to PCB and the whole cricketing world? Instead, PCB has suspended his contract. Well, no superstitions in the cricketing world but he was born on April 23^rd!! But this issue has stolen the limelight from the cracking performance of Oberoi as Ravi in Rakhta Charitra. The first part has me long for the part 2 to see surya in action.

The story of Ravi was a good one to be made as a movie.  This is not the first movie made out of factionism. Even then, my own readings and listening to friends who all have seen the situations right, I can appreciate RGV for showing Ravi as an extremely positive character. Well, that’s how movies work. But, the movie had everything in it along with real violence.

If Ravi was perceived as a hero by some section of people, I give him the credit and honor. He had the ability to affect masses and I stand by my words for whoever is like that. We worship heroes as divine beings, as prophets, as poets, as priests, as kings, as fighters and what not.  Now we have heroes are movie stars and in this timeline, now means movies are larger than life.  More importance is given to virtual reality rather than the reality itself and it is due to the fact that people cannot accept reality because reality hurts but virtual reality does not and everybody wants a painless life.

But, pain is what spices up life. Otherwise life is nothing but feta cheese from Zeus.  Columbus, Vasco da Gama and others went around the world looking for spices and not spaces to build empires.

Everybody wishes to live in their dreams rather than living it for real. Will the situations be approached with even-mindedness rather than prejudice? This is exactly what the Wachowski brothers tried to show in their beautiful creation in which Reeves did the One.

What to do and what not has always been the eternal beauty of the deterministic nature of this chaos based world.  

http://grade12precalculus.blogspot.com/2008/04/more-permutations-and-combinations.html

With thousands of permutations and innumerous combinations that are available to every single individual, it’s the choices we make that defines us not what we want or what we talk or think. 

It’s a topsy-turvy situation that requires a bottoms-up approach in which the combinatorials are subjected to the large amount of entropy that results in the maximum Brownian motion.

The combinatorial is pretty simple without incorporating our dreams in to real life and adopting what the life has to offer. 

A Smirker who adds spice to the combinatorial and looks at the flaccid cheeks at sea is not lost but still at large with all commitment, passion and perseverance intact.
