Humanity has advanced, when it has advanced, not because it has been sober, responsible, and cautious, but because it has been playful, rebellious, and immature.

Because I don't give the studios advanced quotes or an advanced look at my reviews. I think the readers deserve to read my reviews before the studios do.

Now, a lot of what we are doing right now, quite frankly, is because of what happened on Christmas. Many of the things were kind of in the works. We were already planning, for example, the purchase and deployment of advanced imaging technology. You call them body scanners. We call them AITs (Advanced Imaging Technologies).

Redefining maxims
the sky changes
with the shades
of thoughts trickling
into universe
the clouds play out
their sentiments
and profundity
you see them spread
over the heads
of the universe
and know how advanced
things have come to be
in the sky is still the
thought shades of
plato, socrates, aristotle
......
and when another more
advanced thought breezes
through you can see clouds
swriling like volcanoes
breaking through
limitations thus far
in our mind and heart
it is divinity redefining
maxims for the universe
and you know another
world has dawned
another fertile ground
for the brain to evolve
and from the sky
a different light for
us to see the world

Any sufficiently advanced bug is indistinguishable from a feature.

Love Familial
Is it not, family a culture-symbol
Racing human found advanced to safeguard..
Conceived family to conceptualise society
To protect humanity all with moral values
So much love in related bond
In pain, in pleasure, in woes, in comforts
Who else than parents, blood-linked kins
Help, aid, assist with love and care
Not at instances but life through
And familial love is..
For ever 'affectionately yours'
