arbit stuff ..........

Dar fys ma vel gom co palt 'hoc
pys go iskili far maino woc?
Pro si go fys do roc de
Do cat ym maino bocte
De volt fac soc ma taimful gyróc!'

Above is a short poem from one of my favorite writers J R R Tolkien. You can always google for its meaning. The thing here is the language. The language is Nevbosh which literally means ( in that language) new nonsense. It was invented by Tolkien. you can always find out more about Tolkien's languages here. As you can see Nevbosh replaced animalic which was just a code. Well, all the languages we speak are just codes. Some are short, others are very long. Some can be easily decoded, others may create confusions (for example, "I like you"). Over time it happens that the complex ones give way to easier ones like the way it happened with Sanskrit. Now we chat and talk through sms. So are we creating a new language or is it just a diversion?
Enough with the serious talk. We are here for the group blog and let's stay focussed on that (sorry for the jump). Not being a big fan of writing I know how long it takes to write ten sentences for a guy who's not fond of writing, especially when it's not a copy-paste. Without the math or the stopwatch, I can say that it takes me about ten-fifteen minutes to write five lines while on my own. But when copying I think I take about five minutes for five lines. For this I used an alarm clock. But if I use the 'apparent speed' theory of time, I see that it takes me less than a minute (apparent) to write on my own, while it takes about an eternity(again apparent) to copy-paste. But this post seems to take many eternities together. Really, I didn't know that it could take this long to write so little. Oh God, when will I finish? While it would seem another eternity, I would love to finish within next ten minutes. God, there are already so many eternities in here. I wish we could go back in time. If we could do it then we could also go forward. Then this would all be over in a flash. Does anybody want a drink? Okay, let's go. We'll come back soon........

Nevbosh eh, interesting!!

Nice contradiction of the theory of time's apparent speed :D
i m hyperlinking your arbit stuff in this blog with reference to my theory!

by the way, is it a contradiction??
or jus another form which is apparent contradiction. i need help on this, to proceed for hyperlinking... so pl.. wil u??

I really don't know whether it is supposed to be contradiction or not, because when I started it I thought of supporting it, but as it turns out it seems to be contradicting....

yeah, i see that :D

but great .. your contradiction completes my theory! :D

whats any theory w/o a contradiction :P ????
