Man feels good to be writing again...... its been long since my last post.... but then again i had nothing to write about really and did not have a comp to write a post at leisure either.....
So since i got some time to write today... here goes.
What have I been doing all these days? Well i am reading this book called The Simoqin Prophecies by an Indian author called Samit Basu. And let me tell you its awesome!!!! Its subtle humour makes you rotfl =)) and it has all the magical, mythical and mythological characters that you might have ever heard of...... Basically its a spoof and I say that the writer has more than succeeded... Well it does not match up to the ultimate all time classic The HitchHiker's Guide.. but then again it is not expected to. It does although provide you with the dose of entertainment that you need.... Can't wait to devour off the book and lay my hands on the second part of the supposed Gameworld Trilogy.. The Manticore's Secret. I am quite surprised though that the book hasnt made it big yet. It should be sold in the intl market. Will be a bestseller for sure!
Well this book had a Hero School in which special training is imparted to wannabe heroes (who are born with the talent, mind you) to create the superhero breed. And all kinds of weird superheroes emerged from this school. And that made me think.... how weird can a superhero get? Of course in case of a superhero there are no limits to his/her talent and abilities ... after all he/she is a Superhero(ine) [henceforth i drop the female gender although i acknowledge and respect and love superheroines as well :P] and well we all love super-people [thats better] and emulate them (at least some people do... remember the kid who jumped out of the window thinking he could fly after he saw Krrish ? A round of rofl for that :) ) Since there is no limits to human imagination, i guess a number of superheroes are possible with an uncanny knack for doing a number of things impossible for lesser mortals to do.
The other day i was watching this show on TV where the superhero called 'Chutta Man' in which the hero arrived in the right place at the right time to hand out the exact amount of change required by a person to buy anything from anywhere. The prospect seems interesting doesn't it? How many times does one go to a shop and then grumble and argue about not having the change to pay? This guy will be practically helpful for sure. On a more serious note this could actually lead to some sort of facility in which such a transaction could be made possible.... exchanging money for the required amount of change to pay....... will be quite useful i guess.
This made me think. Or as i am learning psychology currently..... this sent signals through synaptic junctions in my brain (duh)..... about my own superhero. If i think really hard and come up with something really good... i could make a movie! And become RICH!!! Calls for the Rapid Eye Movement to start (read dreams.... its psycho man!)
And i am still thinking............
