One Sentence Story

I once thought Nokia should organise a poetry contest to all mobile phone/ Nokia mobile phones users. Rules are that the poem must fit within a single SMS and if abbreviations and emoticons are used, they must be universally recognised.

Well, there is a better approximation online. It's a story told in a single sentence.

One Sentence

I am particularly moved by this story. I've never thought about this before. It's a perspective that is refreshing but in a poignant manner.

zot

I am heart-sick because, like many parents of children with profound disabilities, my most secret and unspoken prayer is "Dear God, please let me outlive my child."

I wish I'll never have to think thoughts like this.

Caroline @Esplanade Recital Studio

Call it dream pop, ethereal pop, trip hop, idm - intelligent dance music....I sure ain't gonna miss Caroline after missing Piana....

So it's been decided. I am checking Caroline out on 24 June with v. Nice!

iTunes bursting

I have almost 40GB worth of music. That's 7065 songs. 23 days, 14 hours and 20 minutes worth.
The stranger thing is this.

How is it possible that when I ask iTunes to show me the duplicates, I have 828 songs or 4.35GB worth of duplicates and potentially triplicates?

That's 2.5 days worth.

Oh Oh .... and if

If Sam Raimi decides to go back to the X-Men franchise, I hope there can be some subplot involving Rogue, Night Crawler and Mystique. They are related you know? Mystique is the biological mother of Night Crawler as well as the foster mum of Rogue. There can be a dysfunctional American family drama in there....Everybody can remember X2: Evolution when the Night Crawler did that super opening scene with him trying to kill the President.

By the way, Night Crawler is an X-Men ie. not one of Magneto's men.

Also more of Ellen Page as Kitty Pryde or Shadow Cat. Simple reason being I'd like to see more of her on the big screen and we share the same birthday. Together with W.H. Auden and Nina Simone. Incidentally, Auden would have been a 100 this year if he didn't die. He was born in York, which was where my University was.

Pour away the ocean and sweep up the woods;
For nothing now can ever come to any good.
