Wisdom filled words these are not.

Short hiatus for a few days from the blog, sorry about that. Just have a few things to mention..

-- You can read a fictional piece by me on Kaleidoscope. It just got put up a few days ago.

-- I'm working on a new blog these days. No details yet. You will all know when you have to. I'll keep EssentialUzi running ofcourse, but this new blog brings with it new possibilities and the promise of lots of fun. Stay tuned, the set up and final touches should not take me/us more than a week or so.

-- Sal, your link to the World Press Photos was amazing. Wow, some of the spot news pictures are so powerful. I especially loved the one of the injured girl putting her hand to the camera as someone carried her away. Really powerful stuff man. It made me want to buy a camera again. I really need to get around to buying a camera capable of black and white photography. Neverthless, let me stay on point, and thank you for the link, not to mention for telling me that ya'll miss me. And for commenting too! One pat on the back for Sal. Don't be surprised if a UPS guy shows up to your door and walks away after patting you on your back. I ask you again, what can brown do for you?

-- I think I am going to buy a laptop. What it shall be I am not sure. But its going to be good cuz I have a few friends here who are IT experts and have taught me more about computers than I ever wished to know ever since I mentioned that I am considering investing in a laptop. I would have liked to get one with an international warranty but that requires an American credit card. How stupid is that? They will ship it to me, they will service it for me. But I have to buy with an American credit card? Look, dude, take 5 days to process my payment, just in case I am sitting in Somalia with a white man's card, but please don't make a blanket rule that it has to be an American card. Thats just plain stupid. And the last thing I want my laptop brand company to be is stupid. No wonder you had to recall 2.5 million batteries. Yes Dell, I am talking to you. Yet, I am still considering a Dell laptop.. the ig'nant of this world will never learn.

-- On other fronts, if anyone wants to send me cash for my upcoming birthday, it would be much appreciated in the form of an American credit card.

- On still more breakthrough fronts, I am now accepting donations for the "Uzi really wants to buy a MAC but can't afford it Fund" (URWBMACBCAiF). Please make donations out to me. I am Uzi and I would like to buy a MAC, just like all my cool friends. Damn them all for putting fancy shmanzy ideas in my head.

-- Also, its important to note that I have now gotten over my hatred for laptops too. Just like I did with mobile phones. And soon enough shall with cars. Indeed, the world is moving ahead, and it seems I am moving with it, albeit about seven years behind.

-- Although it seems like a few short points, I would like to point out that this entry has gotten pretty long, no thanks to the four points related to laptops. So sue me. My blog! Best respect mine.

-- On a different note, there is a serious shortage of Wu-Tang being bumped from extremely loud speaker systems from passing by cars. There seems to be an abundance of Lata Mangeshkar and Bryan adams though. May god forgive me for ever mentioning Lata Mangeshkar in the same paragraph as Brayn Adams.

-- I was planning a short trip to Pakistan in November but it has fallen through on account of my cousin's wedding having been postponed. I was ready for it though. I had already bough a black tie for the occasion (no. 81). I was also looking forward to the occasion because its one of my fav cousins and I would have liked to be there. Now, it might happen too late for me to be able to attend. That is, if I ever collect the money I need to get out of here, a fund that tie no. 81 managed to put a dent into. I have set up a fund for this cause too. There is no catchy acrnym as of yet, but the cheques can be made payable to Uzi. I am Uzi and I would like to get out of this hell hole, soon.

-- Comment at will. No seriously, don't let me hold you back. One at a time though.. don'trush all together, please.

-- Does that suffice as a good update? Again, my blog!
