Warriors fall

What is it about idealism? It attracts, promises, seduces and makes you follow it. With fanatic zealousness. You are prepared to fight for it, to die for it, to kill for it. It is the single idea that holds scores of people together, and alienates them. It makes them love, makes them hate, makes them think, hope and pray. What is it that makes people close their mind to all but their beliefs.

But still... why is it that like a handful of sand that you have, the harder you try to hold it the more of it that slips out of your hand? Why is it people 'grow' out of their beliefs, and think it's ok to forget their beliefs, to act against them, to stop being idealistic and start being 'practical'?

Maybe it's the demands of the new life you have discovered, maybe it's another ideal which sounds more correct, or maybe you're just bored out of it. You abandon a belief system and label it a mistake of zealousness of youth, change it, call it practical and move on as if nothing's changed. No remorse, no regret, no apologies....

Your ideals lie in the waste bin, to be picked up by the next zealous idiot who is stupid enough.Maybe it's just a bee in my bonnet or the fact that I'm too cynical but people disappoint me. Actually idealistic practical people disappoint me.

AAARRRGGGGHHHH!!!! a.k.a Email blues!

People people people!! Stop forwarding junk mails which promise to make you rich overnight! Stop forwarding mails which promise to help a little girl in sweden undergo brain surgery!! Stop annoying and irritating other people who have work to do! I know you feel all good inside for having done your good deed for the day but it's nothing! You haven't helped anybody!!

Can't you see? Isn't it obvious? How can anybody track email forwards? You tell me! All the people who call themselves software engineers! You think someone would write a program to snoop on EVERY SINGLE EMAIL ADDRESS IN THE WORLD to see if they forwarded a PARTICULAR EMAIL? Sheesh! The hours that take programming it and the cost of running it with the consent of all email providers in the world would make whoever wrote it a billionaire overnight! And HE could just DONATE the money to the poor kid instead of YOU forwarding the email!!

The worst part? Most of these emails come from people who are SOFTWARE ENGINEERS!! I wonder if they even THINK! It's a disgrace I tell you DISGRACE!! If you wanna help someone then make donations to the Prime Minister's Relief Fund or something and stop wasting everybody's time!!


If you still have doubts about tracking emails then here's some info:

Most emails are in the MIME format and sent across using the SMTP. Look up these terms on google and try to see if what I say is true or not!
