Looney toons and the need for some madness in Life

Just finished going through my entire collection of Looney toons......the entire 10 hrs of it.....Well, that is enough to make anyone see the lighter side of life...in my case, I tend to focus on the lighter side of life too often so this just pushes me over the brink of publically accepted standards into insanity.

One great thing about Looney toons is that its Timeless Appeal. no matter when you watch it or how many times you watch it it again presents itself with reinvigorating sense of light headedness , a bullish appeal to stay nonsensical and an overcoming zeal to be funny, funnier, funniest. One can never get tired watching it. The simple vagaries and varieties of life presented in a plethora of unusual and hysterically humorous situations.

The way the Gravity waits for the time for the Coyote to realize that he has made a mistake, the various actions Bugs does to show how a "Wabbit" acts, The sniffing spiffing spitting supreme Daffy Duck, the sweet Tweety Bird and " i think i thaw a puddy tat", T-th-the p-p-p-Porky P-P-P-Pig, The absolutely lightening Roadrunner, and the one and only ACME factory and its most generous User....Wile E.Coyote, The Mexican Crossborder Refugee...Speedy Gonzales, and the hopeless romantic Pepé Le Pew always constamment trouver l'amour, The fuddled brain of Elmer Fudd, and TAZ my personal Satan....the Tasmanian Devil.


Of these the one I like the most is Bugs Bunny......" Aeeeeyyy ....What's Up Doc?" and one of Groucho marx's most oft repeated line"Of course you realize...... this means War". The really excellent piece of work done by Mel Blanc and Friz Freleng had Bugs bunny take up the Star at Hollywood. His nonchalance and total nonsensical approach towards life is one that , maybe I think is required (of course in moderation )...... today.

These days our lives are too much bounded by time, career, and what not.... some moments of insanity will help bring back the asymmetry of life.

The Direct (Un)relation of Planning and Execution.

Here I am ..... finally back at home..... replenished, re-energized, rested, re-formulated, and reminded (what food is). Now comes the hard part.... what will I do? क्या करोगे आगे ???

I had planned many things before coming here.... just coming here and being at home is soooooo comfortable that we think "कौन जाए .... जबरन नींद हराम करे " So we sit and makhao.... This is exactly what I am tending to do this summer truthfully....makh fully.

Why does it always happen that the rate of your execution is inversely related to the square of the planning that you do. It happens all the time. We see numerous examples in history too.

During the Third Reich , Hitler had many elaborate plans (and elaborate here is an elaborate understatement)....All came to a naught.

So was the thinking of Edward "Longshanks" that led William Wallace to have so much success in his initial endeavors.


So the fact is. Lots of planning took us nowhere. Lots and Lots of planning looks good.... but only on paper. sometimes we just need to grit our teeth and DO IT.

Like I just did away my mustache....Just DID it... When I was planning it did not happen.... When I decided to do it ...I did It. Although now I look like a gunda without a mooch which is all the more insulting .... but heck!.... this is just an example over the direct unrelation of planning and result(Although it would be noticeable here to mention my brothers and sisters . till this day, refuse to recognize me.... I am having my DNA test done.... will tell you all about it when we meet....remind me)

So my plans as of now now are ...as my camera is repaired I am off to take pics and stuff.... the one thing I truly enjoy....

I leave here with pics I took recently in Mumbai....Happy Hols!!!
