Desperado

Desperado

Desperado, why don't you come to your senses?
You been out ridin' fences for so long now

Oh, you're a hard one
I know that you got your reasons
These things that are pleasin' you
Can hurt you somehow

Don' you draw the queen of diamonds, boy
She'll beat you if she's able
You know the queen of hearts is always your best bet

Now it seems to me, some fine things
Have been laid upon your table
But you only want the ones that you can't get

Desperado, oh, you ain't gettin' no youger
Your pain and your hunger, they're drivin' you home
And freedom, oh freedom well, that's just some people talkin'
Your prison is walking through this world all alone

Don't your feet get cold in the winter time?
The sky won't snow and the sun won't shine
It's hard to tell the night time from the day
You're loosin' all your highs and lows
Ain't it funny how the feeling goes away?

Desperado, why don't you come to your senses?
Come down from your fences, open the gate
It may be rainin', but there's a rainbow above you
You better let somebody love you, before it's too late

Desperado, why don't you come to your senses?
You been out ridin' fences for so long now

Do you identify? I do. :(

Sometimes what you want to say has already been said and sometimes you just have to find the right song that says it all.

I read about the suicide of Nafisa Joseph and my first reaction to that was

Futuristic Transports

I would advise not clicking on the Transportation Futuristics link unless you have 30 minute or so to kill, because the Berkeley online exhibit is chock full of yesterday's future today, and if you're like me it's impossible to stop looking at all the kooky ideas. Even better, as much as I love design concepts (like this aluminum commuter helicopter), a lot of the strange devices are actual prototypes that failed to take off.

Jenna Bushs Tongue

When first lady Laura Bush counseled her twin daughters on how to behave while campaigning with their father, she may have skipped the part about not sticking your tongue out at the media.

That's what Jenna Bush did Tuesday after President Bush arrived at St. Louis' Lambert International Airport.

Bloggers Block!

This and That!

As I sat down to start this BLOG I faced the Bloggers block. What do I blog about? I was staring into the void, the big nothing and everything that was possible. I thought, it would be nice to write about Hyderabad and its people, but then what about all the other places I go to, I won
