Planning your alternate life?

Here's an interesting question I have. If you can re-plan your life, if you can re-live it, with all possible resources given, financially or not. How would you choose to live it? What job would you have? Where would you live? What would you do in your spare time? I often make these little plans at the back of my head when I have nothing to do. Like on a hot night where I cannot seem to get to sleep no matter what position I adopt. On my tummy, on my side, kneeling, various exotic poses. So I think about all these plans I have. Drawing them out in my head, down to the minute details. Who knows? Maybe it will come true? So here's roughly how my "alternate" life goes. 1) I will want to open a restaurant/eatery/bistro in the sea. Like a glass house eatery that has a wooden boardwalk that extends from the beach to the sea. Its glass everywhere, from walls to the ceilings to the flooring. 2) It will have an indoor and outdoor dining option. Outdoor: From the glass hut, yo...

Crazy Ones?

Here's to the crazy ones. The misfits. The rebels. The troublemakers. The round pegs in the square hole. The ones who see things differently. They're not fond of rules.

They push the human race forward. And while some may see them as the crazy ones, we see genius. Because the people who are crazy enough to think they can change the world, are the ones who do. -Apple Computer Inc.

As such, bad music is a companion of the highest order. It will always be there for you, forever and a day. We can always laugh with bad music, and unlike many friends, we can even laugh at it. It is not proud, it is not easily angered. Bad music is unfailing in its faithfulness. As we have been told time after time, it will be there with you, until the end of the world. It will not think you are too fat or stupid. Bad music is kind, bad music is patient. It keeps no records of wrongs. Unlike good music, bad music is devoid of irony, wholly unpretentious, pure and simple every time. It does not boast, it does not require you to "get" it. In spite of itself, bad music is useful, even potent, in its versatility. Play it at low volumes and it will facilitate conversations at a dinner party. Play it at sustained high volum...
