As the Chinese aphorism goes, time passes with a turn of the eye. Eeks. What a sinister translation. Ah well, as long as my message gets put across. The point I'm trying to make is that I've been a lazy bonehead for the past twenty-hour hours and that I've done nothing much but to reach my percentage quota for ThinkQuest.

I'm beginning to hate Sundays. Hope the 16th arrives soon.

Even my mouse decided to go against me. As punishment, I tore out its left ear. I, too, can be merciless. The wriggling remnant lies cold against the flatbed scanner right in front of me. The next best thing I can do is to press against its right ear from now on. I'm too poor to get myself another one. Sigh. I'll be rendered useless should the right ear malfunctions as well.

I'll leave you with a poem. Finally.

**********

Universal Transient

Just a traveler in this vast
world of emotions and empathy,
of many dimensions, you and me
being trapped seemingly in
one of them

Spins round and round
till infinity, you and me,
we shall see the light from within
Our predestined heritage, history
and pristine records of humanity

Bite the dust and off we'll be
in another endless flow
of time seeping by
Frolicking ends short
in a mindless, pointless stop

[Crap... total crap!]
