Year after year, I am reminded
we are ageless.
Our skin grows old and wrinkled
But the smile remains timeless.
Backs get bent
Gracious gestures live on.
Hair falls out, teeth follow
The twinkle in your eye never does.
Hands shake
Strength of character does not.
Memories and bowels grow erratic
Love just grows.
Legs become weak
Not the desire to stand tall.
Boobs sag, ears flap, lips droop
But the person inside shines through all.
The frame shrinks
While the contents multiply.
Day after day, I am reminded
we are priceless.

In Absentia
I've been away 3 days, and what do I find? Madan's laid my dubious past bare to the world, not to mention revealed my secret identity. And there are people with unpronounceable names leaving largely random and irrelevant comments. (Madan, I do not agree about darkenrahlin. Doesn't sound like an ice cream brand. Sounds like a fairy knight. Eating ice cream. And while we're on the subject, wtf is rohtheho? row her where?)
::5 minutes later::I've been reading the rest of the posts trying to gather some inspiration to go on, something to write about. Desperation even prompted me to visit rohtheho's blog and darkenrahlin's excuse for one. The results are in and the fat boy's lost. I have nothing. So guess all my impatient fans will just have to wait until I muster up enough energy to write about something.

Happy Birthday you scumbag
Hey praveen,
I tried calling but for some reason your phone is off. I didn't feel like writing to your office address, so thought I'd post here. Hope you had a really nice birthday. I was still thinking about that time back in school when I told everyone that it was your b'day. For all of you that don't know, both me and On_trial were not too popular in school because of the way we'd talk. The teachers regarded me as an errant child who just needed some coaxing to be put on the right path, and Praveen, they really didn't know what to make of. At any rate, the students didn't think that highly of us either, mainly because of how we'd run our mouths... and when I told them all it was his birthday, they gave him 'birthday bumps', which is basically holding a person's arms and legs and swinging him up and down as many times as his age, so after 18 times they just dropped him and he landed in the sand. Then they kicked him, in the ribs, and in the chest, and well i'll say this much in his favour. I've never actually seen anyone 'roll with the punches', but that was what he was doing, it could also have to do with the fact that at that time he was fat, and so any movement highter and thither would look like a blob of jelly sliding/rolling around by transferring mass in various directions, while moaning softly saying "oho oho oho".
It was fun to watch, and everytime March 19th swings by i think of that and giggle to myself.
Anyways, I hope you got a lot of gifts and such. I'd like to remind you that you are one lucky piece of shit to be spending your birthday with a family that's pretty much your 2nd family anyways. You know what i mean. Most of us don't have that luxury, and I won't whine about that, but I do hope that you value that whenever you go on your bitching trips. I'd also like to think that your day didn't go as badly as our birthdays used to turn out back in the day. I just realized I've known you for a little over 7 years. Man, it's been long. Too long, and you are still the same piece of shit you were when you said, "Oh, in Singapore, sex is a community thing is it??"
Anyways, I've run out of things to say, so I'll just say this Tamil movie style : "yengai irundhaalum vazhga"
If you can't figure out what it means, you ought to be ashamed. Your mom would know what it means though, so ask her.

Hello
How does one start off a first post really? I suppose I could start by saying that both me and on_trial are under no illusions that our thoughts or views are important. They are not. There are too many people and considering that everything's become so idiot-friendly, every moron with half a brain and three times the attitude has started a post. A lot of blogs are nicely written, no doubt, but most of them are shitty, and make for a very painful read. In fact, when i used to read them at work i used to get more depressed after reading them than I would after dealing with my superiors.There will be no "I GAVE MY CAT A BATH TODAY LOL!!" articles. Anyone found guilty of such excesses will be shot in the face and dumped in a lard factory. What you will find here is writing, most of it done because we are unhealthy human beings and feel a need to vent. This venting is only complete if misery is inflicted upon fellow human beings, and you are basically the lab rats in our 'feel healthy' experiment. Not everything will be negative, but it will all be sincere.
We've started this thing with one purpose, and that's to get better at writing. We'll (hopefully) be putting up a lot of stuff that we've written here. Anything from rants to short stories. There are also rumours that on_trial wants to get rich, but you can make about as much money off of writing, especially our kind of writing, that you could if you were an ugly whore, but the point is the writing. Hopefully vomiting out more and more of our emotions will give us both a much needed finesse, and the same also applies for the other contributors, if any. I've said enough. Hope you like what you see, and if you don't, too bad. Disney updates their website often. Go look there.
