Quid Pro Quo With The Gods

OK, I am crawling backwards, so picking up from the last post. Eh, Google is female because it does not let you finish a sentence? I assumed Google ought to be a female because it always inquires location "Where are you?"

Rumour has it that Google headquarters has a clandestine screen in the foyer where it flashes the most ludicrous search of the moment. I wonder what the boffins at Google make of such dire hunt for express answers while tapping into human minds through their interactive skills.

Once I forgot the name of the artist who was world renowned for creating nude assemblage of models.

I starting typing ..
"photographer with nude shots" ..bum! [rejected]
"photographer who takes nude shots of models", bum! [rejected]
"the award-winning photographer who assembles nude models into an art form" bum!
Finally, a modest query "who is that man who arranges people like lego blocks when they are in the buff".

Somewhere the bluenose Google returned me this.

Gender of google search engine has spawned funny memes on the internet and has baffled scientists and laymen alike. I tell you, that prig is a woman who almost mistook me for a predator with such innocent queries.

 

On Time

I shall check out that "Time and Eternity" chapter. Time is so fascinating because of its varying interpretations. Is time manipulatively static that dupes us into believing that we are experiencing time in forward direction? Or is there something like creation of time lending as passage of time. I like our Vonnnegut's phrase "unstuck in time". If we can step out of our dimensional time, we might see our life something as below:

"BILLY PILGRIM says that the Universe does not look like a lot of bright little dots to the creatures from Tralfamadore. The creatures can see where each star has been and where it is going, so that the heavens are filled with rarefied, luminous spaghetti. And Tralfamadorians don’t see human beings as two-legged creatures, either. They see them as great millepedes—“ with babies’ legs at one end and old people’s legs at the other,” says Billy Pilgrim."

— Slaughterhouse-Five by Kurt Vonnegut

That is very deterministic sketch of life but what a relief that everything you intend to do has already been done.

 

I like the way you have extended the scope of our hunt from mere donkeys to all animals. Such ambition is desirable in senile quarters to keep ourselves busy. While I was away, I didn't lapse on our agreement. I made discreet inquires on kalarathri and donkey.

Ira: Do you know why is kalarathri's mount a donkey?
They: Who is kalarathri?
Ira: Do you even read Indian mythology? What stupid and lazy friends I have!
They: I know there is a movie called kalarathri but I don't remember any donkeys in that film.
Ira: Do you even know the nine avatars of Ma Durga. Recite me all the avatar names.
They: Is it not First Durga, Second Durga, Third Durga ..so forth.
Ira: How could you not know kalarathri?
They: Who is he by the way? What is this kalarathri? What are you upto these days?
Ira: Forget it! Such useless friends I have!

We cannot go cold on this now. I will try other channels but one way or the other we must not rest till we decode this donkey's mystic tale to transform as kalarathri's mount.

 

What a sharp finding! Cheeniya, you might have only one working eye but a hundred allied ears to recompense that. I listened to the audio twice. You are so right! The donkey's voice was rhythmic like a sine curve undulating both while exhaling and inhaling. I think donkeys can make great singers even with their huskiness. In the past, husky was not the norm of vocals but today I don't see any reason why a donkey should shy away from Animals Got Talent gig. We have human singers like Himesh Reshamiya who have set a trend by mimicking nasal sounds of animals, why shouldn't the animals conquer human vocals now.

 

Cheeniya said:
I made a careful observation of a donkey braying and I found to my surprise that it made a noise both while exhaling and inhaling while everyone else including the humans made a noise while exhaling only. That makes a donkey enormously unique!

Dear Mr Cheeniya,
Sorry for the intrusion. First of all I want to know whether you are talking about the donkey or monkey.
Another doubt which I have want to be cleared by you.

The snoring of humans - the sound comes when inhaling or exhaling?
