Say guys...i have a request....if u read my blogs...and u agree/disagree wit what uve read...leave a comment eh...?it helps ....cheers
O and another thing...ive bin asked by a frend o mine...bout how come my blogs are all in net lingo....my frend reckons it wud enhance the richness of the blogs if they were rittin in a more...shall v say ...formal stye of ritting...This led me to an important point....
we have bin conditioned....we have been conditiond to think that whatever is old...is automatically better...better than what we have today...Old architecture is better...oh he's a gud artist...but not as gud as Da vinci....a gud riter ...but not as gud as Shakespeare.....i read a buk once "The fountainhead"...by Ayn rand..i recomend u read the buk.heres a bitta philosophy fro that ...the buk is set in an age when architects were fallin over themselves to imitate past architectural styles...an architect was lauded for the number of Classic(Gothic, French etc)styles that he cud incorporate inti his design...there were architects...and there was Roark..Howard Riark was a man who blieved tat a building was gud...bcos it was gud...bcos it fulfilled the purpose for which it was built...period ..end of discushn..Skyscrapers wernt ugly monstrosities..they were a smart man's solution to a problem..Im not sayin Shakespeare was bad...Or that Da vinci didnt know how to paint...but ...dont let their achievements be a Standardisn factor....judge everythng based on its own merit...not how much it has imbibed from a so-called master's work..they were gud fo their age..now this is our time...Dont reject net lingo cos its a corruption of sumthin that was folowd a hundred years ago...i have read Blogs rittin in pure net lingo that are as powerful..to me atleast..as any old text rittin in the most proper of English....eloquence is not Speakin fluently in a language no one follows...its speakin fluently in the language everybody follows..

i've got something to ask you. guess itz a bit off topic. anyway, im an avid bordering maniacal book reader, i've heard abt books by ayn rand, abt how good they are, n people were comparing them to harry potter, but i haven't exactly gotten around to reading it. whats ur take on it.? whats it abt? can u gimme a heads up?

At last, someone is speaking his mind, no matter how wrong he is!

you can type in any lingo you like man, it's your blog!!

Ayn rand sucks frankly, i spent a month on fountainhead and it bored me, a true waste of time, the point of the novel gets lost in the whole philosophy mumbo jumbo.

What say now?
