Boulevard Of Broken Dreams

Nice lyrics.



By Green Day



I walk a lonely road

The only one that I have ever known

Don't know where it goes

But it's home to me and I walk alone



I walk this empty street

On the Boulevard of Broken Dreams

Where the city sleeps

and I'm the only one and I walk alone



I walk alone

I walk alone

I walk alone

I walk a...



My shadow's the only one that walks beside me

My shallow heart's the only thing that's beating

Sometimes I wish someone out there will find me

'Til then I walk alone



Ah-ah, Ah-ah, Ah-ah, Aaah-ah,

Ah-ah, Ah-ah, Ah-ah



I'm walking down the line

That divides me somewhere in my mind

On the border line

Of the edge and where I walk alone



Read between the lines

What's fucked up and everything's alright

Check my vital signs

To know I'm still alive and I walk alone



I walk alone

I walk alone

I walk alone

I walk a...



My shadow's the only one that walks beside me

My shallow heart's the only thing that's beating

Sometimes I wish someone out there will find me

'Til then I walk alone



Ah-ah, Ah-ah, Ah-ah, Aaah-ah

Ah-ah, Ah-ah



I walk alone

I walk a...



I walk this empty street

On the Boulevard of Broken Dreams

Where the city sleeps

And I'm the only one and I walk a...



My shadow's the only one that walks beside me

My shallow heart's the only thing that's beating

Sometimes I wish someone out there will find me

'Til then I walk alone...

A Hyderabadi Drug Addict

Since I went to a school for 8 years with a 99% population consisting of Hyderabadi's, I could safely say that some of the blood flowing in my veins has mutated into Hyderabadi blood. Although my ancestry is from North India and my background is in no way related to Hyderabad, but a very significant part of my personality is now Hyderabadi. I've never been to Hyderabad, But I have learned to adapt to their behavior. I can break into a fit and completely transform into a Hyderabadi like a damn Chameleon.



I have come to be known as a good Hyderabadi impersonator even by Hyderabadi's. Whenever I meet them they ask me do the latest impression I learned of hyderabadi's. Recently I've been growing weary of their wishes. I'm a person with feelings you know, there is more to me than just a shallow impersonation. I'm not a circus monkey damn it!



There is this one Hyderabadi I meet occasionally and he doesn't even know me well enough to make such a request. I've managed to avoid this awkward request three times now by cracking up this dumb expression on my face, but this guy doesn't get the message. Next time If he asks then I'll tell him about the new impression I learned of a "Hyderabadi Drug Addict". If for a lack of self-respect he insist that I do it for him then I'll caution him on that it is rated 'R' for some drug use, violence, and oh yes.... Nudity! :D



And if he still insist then I'll do it, but its not going to be a pretty sight!



~Hyderabadi: Somebody who was born or raised in, or has an ancestry from the Indian city of Hyderabad

Song: I Dare You To Move

This is currently the song that I've been listening.



By Switchfoot



Welcome to the planet

Welcome to existence

Everyone's here

Everyone's here

Everybody's watching you now

Everybody waits for you now

What happens next

What happens next



[Chorus]

I dare you to move

I dare you to move

I dare you to lift yourself up off the floor

I dare you to move

I dare you to move

Like today never happened

Today never happened before



Welcome to the fallout

Welcome to resistance

The tension is here

Tension is here

Between who you are and who you could be

Between how it is and how it should be



[Chorus]



Maybe redemption has stories to tell

Maybe forgiveness is right where you fell

Where can you run to escape from yourself?

Where you gonna go?

Where you gonna go?

Salvation is here



I dare you to move

I dare you to move

I dare you to lift yourself up off the floor

I dare you to move

I dare you to move

Like today never happened

Today never happened

Today never happened

Today never happened before

Hurricane "Ivan" the Invincible

Ivan's Projected Path



Ivan, declared a category-5 storm just hit Cuba a few hours ago. It has reportedly killed 68 people in the Caribbean and seems to threaten millions in the U.S. If Ivan goes along its projected path then the bay area will start to experience hard waves by Tuesday evening and strong winds by Wednesday morning. The eye of Ivan will hit Mobile on Wednesday Night and will take the whole Thursday to pass over it. According to Ivan's projected path, the storm should pass over us completely by Saturday.


Hurricane Ivan's Advisories



The authorities have declared an evacuation in near by counties. Few weeks ago, a category-3 hurricane "Frances" hit Florida and wreaked havoc. It ripped of power and telephone lines. All the roads were littered with debris and some were washed away. It took days for the power to be reinstated and in some areas power has not been reinstated up till now. Federal assistance was called in to assist in recovery efforts and to prevent civil unrest. If a category-3 can do that much damage than people now are dreading to imagine what a category-5 hurricane will do this time. The winds are expected go around to +115 MPH.


Ivan's Wind Radius



The university has opened its Humanities building as a storm shelter. I haven't decided weather to go to Texas or take refuge in the storm shelter until this storm passes. I'll probably decide by Tuesday afternoon. Anyway, Ivan is expected to do a lot of damage. If Ivan goes a little off course to the west even then we'll still be in its red zone. Anyway, those of you who will be concerned about me, don't expect me to call you right after the storm to see if I survived or not because there is a 110% chance that all the power and telephone lines would be out of service. I'll let you know how am I doing as soon as I find a way to call or e-mail. Alright, just pray nothing unforeseen bad happens.
