Editing my Poetry

In the near future I will complete m new poetry book Shadow-street. After which I will spend some time editing it. the work on Shadow Street and the Finish Line will be productive to say the least. I was aware of that as well.

my next move

Right now I am arriving at a crossroads in my life. the next phase of my collegiate journey is about to begin. Where it will take me is unknown but I am determined to make the most of it. I was aware of that as well.

the slow down

Right now as I prepare for my day in Las Vegas tomorrow. I am witnessing the slow down first hand. This situation is changing me to say the least. At the present time I am facing a series of new hurdles to say the least. I was aware of that as well.

paying it all back eventually

By years end all of my old tuition bills will be finally settled. It will be good to no longer have to pay for them to say the least. However I have at least three more payments left before that goal is accomplished. I was aware of that as well.

pushing the limits

the limits have been pushed to say the least. This situation is changing and I know it. Finding away around my problems has been rather difficult. I was aware of that as well.

Britain is Finished

In terms of both its population and is stagnant economy the nation of Great Britain is in the proverbial doghouse. The British have been declining for the past two and half decades but it is relatively recently that they have as a society hit rock bottom. An entire generation of Britains have been grown up with no culture, no future and no values. This is an intense problem for a society in sad decline

Hubris just plain sucks

Parents are especially guilty of hubris on many occassions. Hubris is excessive pride or arrogance. It basically leads to bad decisions and misjudgments. Please people leave your hubris at the door. Do not act as though you are naturally superior to everyone else even when you are not. I was aware of that as well.

No wonder a name change

In 1914 the University of New Jersey formally changed its name to Princeton. Some time later the State University of New Jersey also changed its name to Rutgers. Both higher ed bodies formally dissassociated themselves with the corrupt meyer that is New Jersey politics. Little has changed to this day as a matter of fact. 3 mayors, two assemblymen and five rabbis are implicated directly in a bribery and money laudering scandal. The office of Jeff Corzine the governor of the state has also been implicated in the probe. Personally I hope that the justice department nails these people to a wall. It would serve them right

historical misnomers

Both Moa Tse Dong and Joseph Stalin are mass murderers yet they are revired as great leaders even to this day by both the Chinese and Russians respectively. Why do some mass murderers get reviled and others get revered I really do not understand it.

where it all breaks down

mental problems are surprisingly common amongst both Americans and people in general. It is estimated that some thirty five million Americans most of them under the age of thirty possess some kind of a mental disorder. However mental disorders still to this day remain very poorly understood both by physicians and families. They can often lead to tragedies if they go untreated. This issue touches my life personally as I have a mental disorder. I hope one day progress can be made both scientific and social that can help to alieviate some of the problems suffered by me and my fellows. I was aware of that as well.

after the wedding

Well my elder sister and her new husband are enjoying themselves thoroughly in Buenos Aires Argentina. All in all it was a good if slightly insane time for my family as a whole. The past weekend I visited four American states and traversed two thirds of the country in the process. It was great fun all around. I will catch you all again soon.

the future of farms

It is sad to say that small farming towns like Coleridge Nebraska are disappearing as population centers. These communities should really look at the idea a visa exchange program with India and China. They really need young people bad. The family of my in laws are third generation farmers and you can literally feel the desolation. It is a population that is steep decline. Something radical has to be done to ressurect these communities. I was aware of that as well.

Off to Nebraska

Later this morning we are off to Nebraska. It is first to Omaha and then on to Coleridge. It look likes good times with my brother in law and his family. Still the flight there will be kind of brutal to say the least. I was aware of that as well.

short fictions

Right now I am working on source matrial for two short story collections. The first short fiction collection is called " A Splendid Winter and other stories". These stories are based around the ideas of genetic engineering a cloning and are set in the twenty third century. The second short fiction collection is more eclectic and it is called "The Jab and Other Stories". I look to have good times with both projects. I was aware of that as well.

plotting a return to college

After a year long hiatus I am plotting my return to higher education sometime in the near future. Most likely I am looking at a return in the fall of 2010. It looks to be good times so far as I am still doing productive things. Everything in general is going much better to say the least. I was aware of that as well.

the story commences

the story of our family begins a new this year. The Khilnani/ Ebberson families have a new chapter that is opening. Needless to say I am quite excited. I was aware of that as well.

decline of a thinking culture

It is sad to say that the world's intellectual culture is in decline. Recently it has been replaced with petty patriotism. This is a rather sad development in many respects of the term. The death of intellectualism does spell doom for the society at large. Intellectuals remain the greatest predictors of change and ways of thought. I was aware of that as well

after the wedding

After my elder sister's wedding I feel appropriately devastated energy wise. No doubt it was good fun for the most part. I think her husband is in general a good person and I am quite happy for both of them. None the less I did not enjoy staying up till three am in the morning. None the less I have to make the most of the given situation. I was aware of that as well

the ongoing story

the story is continuing right now to say the least. New connections are being made presently. Still nothing is quite the same and I know it. Eventually all will be completed. I was aware of that as well.

Peace deal in Kashmir

What the disputed region of Kashmir needs is a peace deal. The United Nations should create a joint special protectorate and have a multi national peace keeping force to protect the innocent civilians. More people are negatively effected by this conflict than are effected by the Arab Israeli Conflict. It should demand more of the worlds time and attention. The importance of South Asia as a region is growing. However at the current time this conflict remains unresolved. I was aware of that as well.

Completing Alpha

Later this week specifically Friday my science fiction themed novel Alpha will be complete. It is inspired by two novels principally Brave New World by Aldous Huxley and Secondly Slan by AE Van Voght. I hope you will enjoy it.

a new day dawns

Right now a new day is about to begin. Needless to say it feels good to be home. Watching the sunrise in California is like watching nothing else. Still we have to make the most of our given situation. I was aware of that as well.

our family's future begins now!

With the dawn of the wedding fast approaching. A new chapter is about to begin in the history of my family. things are changing fast and I know it. Still nothing will ever be quite the same again. I was aware of that as well.

new days of poetry

Right now I am about to write a new book of poetry. It is called Arson and Other Poems. It looks to be good times with free verse lyric poetry. Completing this project will be fun. I was aware of that as well.

Homestand part II

Right now I am at my true home which is good. It feels good to be back to say the leatst. I had not been back since March 13, 2009. So it felt good to spend some time on home soil. California is my true home and it will always be my true home. I was aware of that as well.

Family matters

Late next week my elder sister is getting married. This is a good time to be in California to say the least, the situation is improving from the ground up. We are all looking forward to the wedding to say the least. I was aware of that as well.
