The Internet stroll off last weekend, went into a far-off village, over two rivers, and drink bush-rum, that is, bushie. He drink 'til he pass out. A kind soul bring he back to town on Monday. He spend the day lolly-gaggling around, waking up, falling dunk to sleep, on and off. Otherwise, I woulda post this Meme.
Remember them? Memes? Apparently, they's still doing the rounds. One land on my doorstep the other day, twas Dinah, down unda, who send it to me. It was small and fluffy, like a white pigeon. I look at it and say yes, I can play with this. Check it out and tell me what you think?
1 If I could change one thing in my life, what would that be?
I would learn to draw, and write music.
2 If I could repeat any age, what would it be?
Age as in era? Or age as in a time when I was...
Truth is, I ain't want to repeat no age. I like where me is and look forward to de future.
3 What really scares me?
De t'ing unda de bed. It is waiting for me to pass too close, late at night, then it gon grab me ankle and bite. And there's them mini-bus drivers out there. And crime and violence. And every sort of illness known and unknown to man. And doctors with tubes and needles. The list can go on but I gon cut it short and...oh...suppose the sea-wall break away in we sleep and a really high tide come and...
4 If I could be someone else for a day, who and why?
I come back from living in The Island and hear the most amazing music in a film. Then another film. The music was so glorious, I share it with my best friend in the whole wide world. He get so excited, he google the man and send me the information, saying, He could be the Ravel of the East.
Can you guess who it is?
I am talking about A. R. Rahman, and I am proud to say, unlike some folks here, I didn't have to wait for the West to approve before I like.
Why I want to be he for a day?
I can soak up he music-talent, and pour it into my writing forever. I hope he wouldn't mind, but I hear he is a generous kinda chap. If you ever meet he, tell he for me, Hail up, as they say in The Island.
Now, I know people don't do Memes no more...but...I would love to see what spin Danwould put on this...and how Ale would turn this into something positive. Mm, if I can get Cloud in India to wake up...
Oooh, and thank you, Dinah, for this:
Toodleoo see y'all soon, the sea is calm, for now.
