I was watching Harry Potter 6 - The Half Blood Prince for the nth time when I realized that I still have a problem understanding the English accent at time. I have been so used to the American accent that when the characters in Harry Potter start to speak very fast I would have a hard time understanding what was being said. While I was trying to decipher what Bellatrix was saying Erika said something about a lot of Facebook complaints posted one after the other in less than 20 minutes. The complaints were something about links posted on Facebook using their profiles, several of these links are of adult related websites that these users would never in their wildest dreams (sober or drunk) post on Facebook on their own accord. It was clearly a spam, how and why it happened was beyond them. I checked my account and I was thankful that there was nothing like it on my profile. I would not want something like that to tarnish my rather goody two shoes reputation in Facebook.

I have younger brothers who are twins and are in college. I have to check up on these boys on a regular basis because they have a habit of getting other people in to trouble and I find myself sorting out those people because I always feel responsible. Mischief is something that they pride themselves for and something that is a part of them. If those were the terms of verifying the family and blood bond then I would not have been related to them. They are identical twins and they use that to get in and out of trouble really swiftly. They came to visit me on spring break and they brought with them their problems as usual. There was this girl who kept on calling and whenever I would pick up she would say that if Facebook had a uk facebook number she would tell them to deactivate the accounts of my brothers because they avoid her and play tricks on her. I did not even bother asking what they had done but i knew whatever it was she had a right to be mad.

Graffiti might be art. It might be a self expression. I can appreciate a Banksy when I see one. It might be beautiful, but it's not legal. Think about how hard people work to buy their things, then think of a few people spray painting it. What if it was REALLY important to somebody. Art should be legal in all forms, but graffiti can harm people. It can get them into a load of trouble that they can't get out of! Graffiti should be legal to a point. This is what I mean, it should be and is illegal to vandelize property with grafiti. On the other hand, it should be legal in designated areas. Such as buildings just to put grafiti on, so you can do this, while not hurting people. Everyone wins! Which is why I have no idea why people vandelize with grifiti, and why people aren't doing something about it. Make more designed grifiti areas, and a big weight will be lifted off America's shoulders.

Though the word art signifies any creative activity, in its usage it is identified more with paintings - think Constable canvas prints and whatnot. Painters are supposed to be very special people, with their idiosyncrasies. Maybe it is because of the hype surrounding them in the Western world. In India, painters are normal people. Very good painters who could challenge painter of the Western world, have chosen to go to other profession because of not only any encouragement, but also do the necessity their families. We have also a unique knack to ignore old masters. Raja Ravi Varma is one of them. Paintings are labeled with many names like Classic, modern, abstract, bbb etc Picasso was best of the painter's who specialized in painting in comprehensive things and get atrociously high prices. In the world of cynicism, painting such things is the surest way of winning the approbation of the seat of art "CONNOISSOURS" As I see out, it is something pleasing, and soothing to the senses. May be, what is good for someone may not be so, for another. It is a question of individual taste, and outlook. As the saying goes "Art for art's sake".Further Reading: drudgereport.com |
