Not so cartoonesque

Consider the word 'Marhaban'. Something inexplicably sensuous about it although it only means 'hello!'..(I think...). Actually, something inexplicably sensuous about the language. Arabian nights and Arabian days...

A foreign language, a foreign people, their thoughts, their trials and tribulations, their love, their hatred, hopes, dreams and despair, their lives..the language learns them. And when they speak it, it's poetry. It's the mirage that tantalizes and eventually leaves high and dry..because you'll never know!

Before I die, I shall have known the language well enough to have had a torrid affair with it..

Ma-sah-lama! Ilâ alliqa'!!

Skywriting by word of Keyboard

What would he have had to say about that?! John Lenon’s book 'SKYWRITING BY WORD OF MOUTH' reads very much like a blog. While I was reading 'Skywriting....' for the 37th time this year, I realised, John had done it so many years ago..only it came out in print.

I love writing blogs! You can ramble on and nobody to say no. And I don't have to add a statutory warning at the end saying, "Read at your own risk." I didn't really know anything about blogs till mid 2008. That reminds me. I need to ask one of my young, blogger friends if there are actual, legal implications to this. I mean there's got to be a catch! How can one be able to write whatever the hell one wants to and get away with it?! I mean, Johnny took a bullet in the heart for it! Sure, it was a book and all the rest of it but we all know that he wrote and sang pretty much like he spoke and thought...wait..I have a sneaking suspicion that this is turning out to be a John Lennon love fest, as everything I say and do, does.

Let me stop while I can. Fact remains - I am of the opinion that blogging is the best thing that happened to human kind since the Ford assembly line. We can all be writers now! Get in line! Too many exclamation marks?! Sure sign that I should stop right here. Enough statements for the day...
