This post goes to him, a hero of ancient times, prescriber of peace and decency. Today is his day, so Happy Birthday Gandhi! You didn't live long but you will live on. Artwork by Alex.

A silent cascade of raindrops tear
The darkness reaching loud and clear
Into our being sensed in soul
Seeing through the unseen whole
They splatter mildly against the grass
They collide swiftly with stone
They run astray on edges and lie
Unsteadily in their new home
To be swept away by the morning breeze
Rise back up to the clouds they please
Grow in content and deeply consume
Until the tender rainfall resumes

I friggin hate them. I'm using one right now, and typing like this is no problem, but every once in a while the Copy Paste feature gives up on me. I CTRL C just to have a C replace the text I was going to copy, or get an older clipboard item when CTRL V:ing the cut. I have to hit the keys hard sometimes, and repeat the proceedure a few times before the computer understands whatever message the keyboard is trying to convey. A low battery sign blinks on the upper right side of the screen every once in a while and when used daily the batteries run out ever 4-5 months, at least. So why don't we just have cables like we used to back in the good old days? Sure, when I first got this computer I sat on the bed behind the chair I currently reside in while watching movies, tapping the play and pause buttons with a gaping jaw thinking something like "Woah, magic", but since then, they keyboard has pretty much been stuck on the same spot and the chordless feature doesn't do else than waste batteries and complicate things for me. Same thing with the chordless mouse, but that one gave up on me a couple of years back, so fortunately I'm back to using a traditional chorded one. And it works. It hasn't needed and battery changes or caused me any momentary irritation since I bought it. Chords & cables FTW.

As some of you may know, or read about earlier in this blog if you do not so do, a bunch of my accounts were hacked at the start of this year, amongst them my facebook account. I probably bothered the facebook staff with one name change request too much and all my requests have been denied since. And since I can't have my name as Bam Bammington for the rest of my profile time there I had to create a new account. My last profile account ID was something after 690,000. Guess which number my new one received? 100,000,291,585,974! Holy shitting unbelievable, more than 100,000,290,900,000 people have signed up after me in the past few years! I'm beginning to think I should have kept my past account and not thrown it away even if the name was messed up, it's one in a million, literally. In this case, however, one in the first million is one of the chosen lucky few. No turning back now though, my account is erased and there's nothing to do about it.
I wonder how many of these 100,000,290,900,000 new accounts are duplicates, and how many of them have been erased, and how many of them are false accounts? Because that is just an insane number of accounts. I mean, in the world there are only 6,706,993,152 people! That's over a thousand accounts for each person in the whole WORLD! Hard to take in such numbers. I knew Facebook was big, but this big, I didn't know. Woah.
