random thoughts

I want to know the Truth, All the worlds a lie, Broken are the foundations I believe in, The victories are defeats, With eyes never apart, The sky turns black from blue, With stones replacing hearts, Why are questions never asked? For in them lie the answers, Why must I tolerate greed and might? Why must I fly when I can fight? Why must I turn my around and keep quite? When will my heart turn to the light? - LOML

Found somewhere on the web and it has been posted here in Public Interest.

Also since we seem to be headed the same way and the disease has spread far and wide, following the description of the disease are some examples of the symptoms showing up in our country.

New STD: Gonorrhea Lectim
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has issued a warning about a new virulent strain of Sexually Transmitted Disease.
The disease is contracted through dangerous and high-risk behavior.
The disease is called Gonorrhea Lectim and pronounced "gonna re-elect him."
Many victims contracted it in 2004, after having been screwed for the past four years. Cognitive characteristics of individuals infected include: anti-social personality disorders, delusions of grandeur with messianic overtones, extreme cognitive dissonance, inability to incorporate new information, pronounced xenophobia and paranoia, inability to accept responsibility for own actions, cowardice masked by misplaced bravado, uncontrolled facial smirking, ignorance of geography and history, tendencies towards evangelical theocracy, categorical all-or-nothing behavior.
Naturalists and epidemiologists are amazed at how this destructive disease originated only a few years ago from a bush found in Texas.



This was a story that caught me a little unaware cause although "have been there and done that"- seen the exploitation of resources by NGOs etc funding used for personal gain did not imagine our paranoia would lead us to believe the parts shown here in bold:

Saturday, November 11, 2006 (New Delhi):
NGOs usually get away with a lot because of the status they enjoy but the government is increasingly coming down on them.So, much of money comes to them but where do NGO's spend all this. In an effort to curb corruption in this sector, the government now plans to keep tab on the money coming in from foreign contributors.Increasingly a question is being asked by the government that where is the money eventually spent.Even as the number of participants at India Social Forum and such platform to show their work goes up, so does the number of those being blacklisted by the government.
The government suspects that a large share of the Rs 6000 crore that comes in as aid every year is either being diverted for personal use or to fund terror groups.


So the story goes on to describe the governments plan and the NGO stand about Government officials being part of this... But really funding of terror groups is something that never came into my head even when I have abused and criticised the whole NGO culture... and maybe that's cause I still haven't caught the STD!!! :)
(The money should be regulated, and kept tabs on etc cause a lot of it is misused but to bring in the whole terror angle even the minuscule amount of work some of these organisations are able to do will become impossible)
