TS-5.0 is Cloud Ready Thin Station

TS-5.0 is Cloud Ready Thin Station
Linux is cloud ready and TS -5.0 is doing an excellent work upfront.
It is only 217 MiB but oint to point download was painful.
I had to download it twice.
First time 2 MiB was missing.

It is OpenBox thin client and solid as it is with gparted and x-terminal and install information in the CD.
One can install it as a server and unfortunately I am busy and do not have a spare computer to try as at present.
I hope they improve the documentation and include step by stem I proxy and IP address set up for window user.
It is bit posh and has a wireless (I removed my wireless router due to security reasons and have only an Ethernet connection currently) connectivity.
Thank YOU, Guys and Girls at Thin Station developers.
You are doing a wonderful preparation for Cloud Computing.

Reproduction with Beauty

This is a reproduction and it is a beautiful piece.
I agree with all except being FAT.
Practically everything else is what I say and practice.
It is related to  Moment Meditation (MM) and that is all what we all have in common and not taken care of.
If every one enjoys the present moment this world is going to be a wonderful place.
One does not need to be old to practice it.
Unfortunately Wisdom comes too late to enjoy!

I have some proviso's for the elderly, though!
I give the physiological reason afterword.

1. Don't have a big booze, especially one for the door.
2. Don't come out when it is freezing cold outside without adequate warm clothing. Drinking cold beverages is an equivalent scenario.
Staining at stools is one of the bad predicament for the elderly. Which is bit more complex than a cold drink.
3. Don't walk against the breeze.
4. Don't walk up a hill with heavy luggage in both hands.
5. Enjoy your sleep especially the dreams.
6. Don't do vigorous exercise without slow and gradual warm up (this applies to YOUNG too).
 Alcohol causes vasodilatation (that include coronaries too).
When one comes out after the one for the door one is exposed to cold weather which triggers intense vasoconstriction which shoots up the Blood Pressure.
This combination is bad for both heart and brain.
Trigger Heart Attacks and Strokes.
If one is predisposed it will also bring about heart failure and pulmonary oedema which compromise everything that one had enjoyed inside.
 Others also have similar mechanisms except that the exercise can bring about Asthma in the predisposed especially the cold air which start the episode with cough.
Bottom line is keep warm and avoid scenarios of excessive vasodilatation and constriction.
Sorry for the preamble but enjoy what is below which is very beautiful writing.

If you have time read my dreams and their interpretations in this blog and elsewhere.
I have already two volumes in Amazon (both print and digital).
Most of them are futuristic and when one retires, one can be happy that we are leaving this world at relative PEACE.
In future with global warming and food scarcity, would will have a very BIG ROUGH PATCH to which America, India, China, Brazil and more importantly UNO is not ready.
They are putting everything under the carpet and think some of my environmental prediction will never will come.
It is like ostrich hiding his head under sand.
Reproduction
Reproduction with Beauty
As I've aged.
I've  become kinder to myself, and less critical of  myself.  
I've become my own friend. 
 
I  have seen too many dear friends leave this  world, too soon; before they understood the  great freedom that comes with aging. 
 
Whose business is it,  if I choose to read, or play, on the computer,  until 4 AM, or sleep until noon?  
I will  dance with myself to those wonderful tunes of  the 60 &70's, and if I, at the same time,  wish to weep over a lost love, I will.
 
I  will walk the beach, in a swim suit that is  stretched over a bulging body, and will dive  into the waves, with abandon, if I choose to,  despite the pitying glances from the jet  set.
They, too, will get old.
 
 
I  know I am sometimes forgetful. 
But there  again, some of life is just as well forgotten. 
And, I eventually remember the important  things.

Sure, over the years, my heart  has been broken.  
How can your heart not  break, when you lose a loved one, or when a  child suffers, or even when somebody's beloved  pet gets hit by a car?  
But, broken hearts  are what give us strength, and understanding,  and compassion.  
A heart never broken, is  pristine, and sterile, and will never know the  joy of being imperfect.

I am so blessed to  have lived long enough to have my hair turning  grey to have my youthful laughs be forever  etched into deep grooves on my face. 
So  many have never laughed, and so many have died  before their hair could turn silver. 

As you  get older, it is easier to be positive. 
You care  less about what other people think. 
I don't  question myself anymore. 
I've even earned the  right to be wrong. 
  
So, to  answer your question, I like being old.  
It  has set me free.  
I like the person I have  become.  
I am not going to live forever,  but while I am still here, I will not waste time  lamenting what could have been, or worrying  about what will be.  
And I shall eat  dessert every single day (if I feel like  it).

Dream 25 and its interpretation


Dream 25
I was in an air port.
This airport was different and I had to purchase the ticket from the airport counter itself.
There were lot of other people queuing to by tickets.
Lot of them looked like refugees trying to enter a new country.
I had one heavy luggage and a light handbag.
Somehow I managed to get a ticket for the immediate flight.
I checked the heavy luggage in a hurry.
Then I entered an area which looked like the departure lounge but looked very primitive.
I went into a gate to inquire and they checked my ticket with the only computer they had and said I have to wait for another 9 hours, for the flight.
When I asked why?
I was told that the pilot had not reported for work.
I felt strange.
They then told me the real departure lounge is a walking distance away from where we were and there are no taxis to take you there.
It is a nice walkaway, by the side of the Hotel International, I was told.
Since I had a very light hand luggage, I decided to take a stroll.
I walked passed the hotel, thinking it was only a joyride.
Moment I passed the hotel, I went into a heavily buildup area and lost my way.
I asked a passerby to show me the way and he said go straight and down.
I went up straight and ended up on top of a steep wall and there was no way to climb down.
Then by stroke of luck I found a side walk which was dirty and rickety.
With difficulty I finally reached the bottom which led to what looked like a street market.
There were lot of people who were doing lot of road side buying and selling.
Quite like, London in medieval times.
I felt I had been laid the wrong garden path.
To begin with, I lost all my belongings with my heavy luggage at the entrance of what for all intents and purposes was a bogus airport.
I was frightened and woke up immediately.
Posted this to Maha Brahma after the dream 26 was posted, thinking this has no relevance to it.
Maha immediately responded and asked me why this was not posted with the other.
I said I did not see any connection.
Interpretation.
He said this has a direct relationship.
You will know it better when I expand on the story.
In your dream 26 I said one has to follow 10 points.
YES.
If Sri-Lankan do not follow those instructions to the letter, what I am going to say now will happen in about 50 years, he said.
Things are not rosy in 50 years time.
Why?
Can you guess?
Global Warming.
No.
Global warming is already set in and it won't change.
I think so.
It was only yesterday my pet fishes were almost cooked to dinner from direct sunlight.
All of them were floating on top of the water and I rescued them in nick of time and put them in some buckets that contained cooler water.
Had I come half an hour late, all of them would have been dead.
What did you do afterward.
I changed the water with some cool water I had collected for an emergency.
Then I covered the top and side with black plastic sheeting.
Fixed a new filter.
Put the air compressor on full throttle.
Did your fish die.
Thank god, not this time!
I checked the indoor temperature later which was 90 Fahrenheit and outside was probably higher.
Fish die at 84 F and it was touch and go scenario.
Can you have a second guess.
No fossil fuel and no planes.
That's right my boy.
In fifty years from now there are no fossil fuel and no airbus industry.
The airports built now will be idling and the industry that were built around them will go bankrupt.
Soon the the jungle take over the periphery.
But there will be few animals and the entire elephant fleet in the jungle is not more than fifty.
They roam in 5 to 10 in a herd and go violent moment they see humans.
Since humans now do not have jeeps or vehicles and have to travel by foot elephants do not fear humans anymore.
They rule the little vegetation that is there.
Global warming has caused untold misery in this country and it is no different from Dubai where England now play cricket with Pakistan.
Why did you interrupt my dream?
If I left it for another five minutes you would have lost the hand luggage and, you thought of hiding in the jungle nearby.
Had you entered there for cover the elephants will trample you to death.
I had to intervene for your safety.
Can you tell me where this place was?
The name is something like Hambantota.
I got it.
See you soon.
OK.

Dream 26 and its interpretation

Dream 26.
I had a long night sleep and woke up with a very nice dream.
I was in plane and I was 20 years younger.

The scenario played was as if they were trying to match me a girl who was of a different race and quite young.
The instruction was to interview the said person and handover an important portfolio to the lady.
It was very important portfolio and the interview had to be done inside a plane where radio-communication had to be dead.

Nobody could know that this interview has had happened on terrestrial arena.
This was like an American President  makes a very important decisions while on flight from one city to another.
I did not ask why they selected me for this interview as the interviewer.
It was top secret mission.
The opening scenario was like matchmaking and hitchhiking.
I was introduced to the lady who looked smart by his brother.
He was teasing her and saying that she ought to be able to play good old games and not modern games.
There was a obvious a generation gap and I felt old myself.

My opening question was could she play card games.
She looked at her brother and said, that 94, Ormie ans 304 (last two are  Sir-Lankan card games and the first one I have never heard, before).

Then I asked can you play bridge?
She said no.
That's very good.
Why?
You may be able to make a nice cup of tea or coffee, instead of teasing your brain with bride contracts.
Then I was woken up quite pleased but baffled

Today is our Independence Day and this must surely have some important logic.

I immediately I posted this to Maha Brahma. 

The dream I had before this dream was kept in reserve for a future date.
As usual Maha was prompt in his M.V.M (Maha's Vice Mail).

I asked him, why did you interrupt the dream.
I did not, he said.
You may have interrupted it fearing a heart attack with the possibility of a match making with a girl half of your age.

I said it is a done thing nowadays in this country and the fellow dies soon and the girl inherits everything what the first wife would have got.

I said I was interviewing for an important protocol and it was not light hearted.
I said I was crossed with that interruption, with whoever who did it in the first instance.

Then he said, it is most likely a politician who had tapped into your system.
Why?
I have no political inclinations.
But you love peace, don't you?
YES, everybody likes PEACE.
Do you like to hear the interpretation.
Yes.

Interpretation.
Do you have any dealing with A.P.C.
I do not belong to any party and I have no connection to All Party Conference
Besides I am am not a MP but a good citizen by descent but have no role to play.
You are wrong.
In your dream you were selected as the best person to represent ordinary people.
You had a 10 point plan.
Did I?
All of them are good but politicians hate your proposals.
That may have been the reason for interruption to your dream.
I told him I cannot remember anything about the 10 points.
Calm down my boy.
I have recorded them for you.

Can you state them slowly.
Why?
I want to write them in a piece of paper and post them in my blog post.
Can I state the copyright belongs to you.
Why?
Media freedom is available only to a few in government guys like FBI, with this SOAP operation, in full swing in America.

Is it globally applicable.
YES.

Are you ready?
Yes, SIR

1. Number 1
Abolish the Presidency.
My heavens!
How can we do that?
This, American president can take any country to his palm and decide its fate now or never.
Why never?
If the country does not listen he can decimate it with a press of a button.
One nuclear arsenal is enough but some countries like Israel are protected.
Why?
I do not know?
Ask the president and the secretary.
Can this be applied to Sri-Lanka.
You got to be kidding!


2. Number 2
Do not have a National Flag.
That is a wonderful idea.
Why?
We do not have to hoist it on a cold January morning and only two third will rise to it and one third will not.
In times of war it is one less item to be carried to the war front.
Besides American would be spared of this gesture of burning it in front of their embassy with religious flavour.
What about the UNO?
If we do not have national flags UNO could be closed for good.
That is excellent predicament. 

3. Number 3
Abolish all political parties.
I don't like it Sir.
Why?
Two reasons, Sir.
We become a one party state.
Second we will not have the fun of watching the ruling party making all the tricks to destroy the aspiring opposition.
Beside we do not watch cricket now and this is the only game to watch on daily basis.
Without politics people will starve to death.
If coconut goes to Rs.100/= we have a party to blame, especially those who are in power.
I do not like that idea at all.
We all are political animals.


4. Number 4
Ban all the National Anthems.
That is a very good idea.
Why?
We can start a football game or any game without hoisting the flag and the anthem.
We can finish all the games five minutes early even if one is watching them on TV.
If we count the number of games played in and year and multiply by five we have an enormous saving for productive work for one's own country.

Do you have national anthem in heaven.
NOPE.

5. Number 5
Ban allocating colours to political parties and countries.
I do not see any advantage of that at all in that proposal.
This is an environmentally friendly gesture.
The we will have only greens and nothing else.
Besides it saves lot in paint usage for political purposes.
Colours are only for the advertisement industry.
Every time a government changes the industry guys / girls do not have to paint their business place with the colour of the ruling party.
I am sorry I did not think that way.

6. Number 6
Cancel Elections
This comes as a collateral advantage of not having parties.

7. Number 7
Have one universal language.
I am not going to propose any current language.
It should be like a computer language.

8. Number 8
Cancel the Z-score
That is very exciting.
How do we conduct examinations?
I have a very simple solution.
Give a common paper.
If all the students do not get 100 out of 100, sack the teacher.
Then re-train the teachers to teach.
That looks promising.

9. Number 9.
Close all universities for good.
That is very retrogressive know?
No it will save lot of agony for the current government.
There is no minister.
There are no professors.
There are no salary issues.
There are no industrial actions.
Then what happens to me.

Go and start treating patients instead of teaching good values.

What are you going to do with the money saved?
That is a very good question.

10. Number 10
Ban all weapons of destruction globally.

The money saved should be used to teach this.
That is the only education mankind needs now.
All these schools should be raised to University Level.
Only have one professorship.
That is the Professor of Peace at all times.

Then all these institutes like Amnesty International and the N.G.Os who are selling Peace for Money will cease to exist and world peace will prosper.

Dream 24 and its interpretation

Dream 24
This another dream that came out of the blue.
It is related to celluloid stars both current and aspiring to be.
Setting probably is in India and could very well be in Ceylon with so much Indian interventions from fishing trawlers to foreign ministers.
It is all about a mega advertisement.
First part of the dream was hazy.
It was related to a mega billboard of a current celluloid (male) star and a new comer (female).
The current star asked for a huge payment and the new comer was given only a fraction of the contract. In addition the designers of the billboard was also given a percentage according to the number of billboard that were displayed.
It was not clear who was contributing the money for the project.
For some reason the designers did not get their portion and that portion was also gulped by the mega star.
It was a lucrative deal anyway.
The the star came for another billboard contract.
This time the young female star had to expose more than what was desirable for an average screen print.
Since the star made a huge income the designers decided to ask for a loan from his previous income.
With some reluctance he agreed.
The female star agreed on the contract which was not shown to the mega star.
The female star had a plot to disgrace the guy who was arrogant to say the least.
She was not ready to expose that much cheaply but agreed on only one display print on contract document.
She also had a secret deal with the designers, if additional copies were made they should be made on paper that was light and heat sensitive.
In other words it was for indoor display only.
This was not told to the mega star and he was not bothered anyway.
He was given the proof read on proper heat and light resistant paint.
He was happy and ordered a large number of copies for outdoor display.
The interesting thing about the ploy was when the display was let out in the open in three to four hours the nude part of the female star disappeared leaving behind no trace of her image.
In 24 hours a silhouette of the mega star was visible and with a small print below "this screen print is only for indoor display".
In 24 hours it became a national story.
The mega star rushed to the designers and they did not budge and inch away from the contract, He went away grinding his teeth.
Nobody would sign a contract with him thereafter and the designers got their money worth and the popularity they needed for future contracts.
On face value it is a nice Tele-Drama ploy but I wonder how Maha will react to the dream.
Immediately posted email to Maha Brahma.
He exchanged niceties and said you were not a Zombie this time.
I said the mega star was the zombie.
I asked him whether there was a second part to the dream and did the star go to courts.
To which he gave a negative response.
Interpretation.
He said the interpretation was bit political and futuristic.
In future all the activities of politicians are videoed by law, day and night and if they fancy dancing with nude girls, they have to apply a light absorbing dye (like what one sees in black holes in the universe).
These light absorbing dye has activity that last about an hour and they are very costly and produced only for politicians in high office.
They are more costly than gold or titanium and actually the metal is imported from black holes by American astronauts.
Only rightful user of this rare metal is the American President who is current.
Fortunately rest of the American senators who aspire to become presidents do not care a damn to the video footage's and the American public get all the videos relayed by satellites for daily consumption.

Dream 23 and its interpretation


Dream 23
It is long time since I had a good dream.
This one was exciting.
I was in Malaysia for some unknown reason.
I felt sick and I was taken to a hospital.
It may have been a tommy upset and pain and I cannot remember that part.
I can very well remember they were doing an ultrasound.
I could here one saying it is unbelievable this man is pregnant.
And one was trying to pull my underwear down to prove his point.
I was bit annoyed and said aren't you watching a recorded ultrasound?
Then he realized I was not under any anaethesia and turned round the display so that I can see it live.
I am scanning again and this time I am recording it too, he said.
The I went into some shock mode and i could not remember anything at all.
They may have given a sedative to calm me down.
Then after a while I was in another place.
Again the guys were showing my ultrasound to a prospective buyer of my wonder baby inside my belly in exchange of a three year old.
I can remember his name.
His name was Mutthiah Rouf, bit confusing both Tamil and Muslim names given to this boy.
I thought of giving away the not born baby away and looking after an already formed kid was a good idea.
How to take the baby away was not discussed at this point and it would have been a certain laparotomy to relive my pain.
Mind you this is the first time a baby was auctioned for the highest bid before born.
Finally everything was finalized and I wanted ask one question before signing the documents.
Mind you I cannot be taken to court since court has to prove that I was capable of producing an offspring on my own.
To prevent me making any claim later would have been the reason for the exchange of the boy.
I asked the boy can I change your name.
He said no.
Then I disagreed with the agreement and said no to all the dealings and said I will have my baby.
The man went away with disgust.
Then I asked the surgeon what was all this about?
He told me there was a mishap in an earlier occasion where an in-vitro embryo was misplaced with the tag number.
The father (the man) of this embryo was that old man.
The mother of the baby was his youngest wife who was infertile and with greatest difficulty they had harvested an egg from her.
By some stroke of accident they had put that embryo inside your tommy when I was there last time.
That is interesting.
How come.
They were doing a laparoscopy and while injecting CO2 the anaesthetist had put the tip of the suction catheter where the missing embryo was lodged by accident into your tommy and you were effectively implanted or in-vitro fertilized.
My goodness I said.
How did you know that whose property was the embryo?
When we preserve the embryos we put a radioactive (label) tag and your / his baby has it on his back. 
We saw it on the second (later) US.
This man has sued us and while you were under anaethesia we got our lawyer to negotiate a deal.
And as a safety protocol we used his adopted son and like a good man you agreed to all what we said until your last question which blasted everything in toto.
Now then can I sell the baby to you?
Of course.
What the prize?
Unfortunately before I could finalize the deal I was woken up with an urge to go to the loo.
I scanned my tommy with the hand and there was no sign of any baby inside and made a full void and went back to sleep, this time with some sanity in my mind.

Immediately in the morning I posted the dream to Maha Brahma.
He responded quickly and for about 10 minutes he was laughing his heart out.
He told me, you were a real zombie.
You said yes, yes to all the suggestions those guys were making.
I had no control, I said.
They would have given me a zombie producing drug.
What zombie drug?
You were ashamed of yourself with the baby inside.
I finally made you to ask that vital question about the renaming the boy.
Why?
To get you a good deal even in your dream my boy.
Then why did you interrupt at the last moment.
I did not.
It was your bladder. 
Can this happen in real life?
Yes.
How?
Interpretation
Even in your dream you were very futuristic.
This is the type of thing that will happen on a daily basis in future.
Human error as well as computer errors.
With STEM Cell Research well in advance in future, there are every type of human organ, cell and embryo produced.
There will be labellings errors that will creep in at all levels.
Mind you all these stuffs are microscopic and the labeling is going to be the most difficult.
Even the computers that store data can be manipulated by hackers.
In your dream case it was faulty suction pump.
In future it will be database errors.
See you with another dream and he vanished.

Netbooting and EXTON-Multiboot-9-iso+EXTIX

www.netbootme

The www.netboot.me is the tiniest iso I have downloaded. It was so tiny I did not want it to be written into a CD.
It can be loaded into a floppy disk or USB but that was also wasteful.
What I did was to download EXTON-multiboot-9-iso and boot it from that CD.
It is almost similar to a GRUB file and it boots up and give many options including rescue tool and even linux isos.
In few minutes I was downloading Tiny Linux (10 MiB) and testing it.
Visit the home of www.netboot.me and see for yourself the demonstration.

In my books, I have overlooked these tiny Linux isos and I have decided to write a book including all these little wonderful distributions.
It is long time due.
You may have to wait for few weeks.
If you do not wish to read a book but prefer hands on experience, then EXTON-mulitboot is for you.
Mind you, extix-x64gnome32 is a better option, if you have time to download.
It is coming from Sweden and a derivative of paldo Linux.

SOPA is disgusting.


Wikipedia is among several websites to shut down at midnight in protest of anti-piracy bills now in Congress that critics say could amount to censorship.
This bill is disgusting.
What is happening to American Free Speech.
We in the East are subjected to many form of suppression.
Suppression in any form either originating from East or West is bad.

Voyager 11.10. Xbuntu experience with French Flare

 Voyager 11.10. Xbuntu experience with French Flare
Voyager 11.10. Xbuntu derivative is a French distribution which is light weight fast and some features similar to Apple mac.
Dockey is non-obtrusive and it has ZOHO for office work.

It works well in English and French version support internet TV.
This is the future of Linux with cloud computing taking its presence felt.
Thanks and enjoy Xbuntu experience which is nor glaring but peacefully pleasant.

Unusual Sighting of Eagles


Oversight


My jubilation and excitement to see number of eagles are short lived.
I happen to see a young one hovering in my neighbourhood.
The reason for this sighting is due to their displacement from their normal habit.
The nature vultures with political backing are clearing the trees of the protected reserve illegally.
Bird have no choice but to leave their natural habitat even before they are big enough to fend themselves.
I have some collaborative evidence too.
That will be recorded elsewhere as a new blog piece.

Unusual Sighting of Eagles

Yes, it is unusual to find three Eagles hovering in the sky.
Usually there is only one that survey from above.
Then of course finding a second one in the neighbourhood could be a coincidence.
But finding there within the striking distance was very unusual.
They were becoming extinct and the Dehiwala Zoological department released a few to the wild expecting them to get colonized about a decade ago.
 I was not expecting them to survive long having being domesticated and not knowing basics in survival.
It looks like the experiment has succeeded but we need to look after them in the wild.
Three is not a big number but it is only a beginning.
Just thirty years ago sighting an eagle was not that difficult.
It is rare in the semi-urban environment in which we live.
They are very good snatching mouse and young squirrels.
Mind you they are secretive and they disappeared in about 10 minutes.

Dream 22 and its interpretation


Dream 22
Very short but a futuristic dream.
Beginning of this year we were celebrating the 50 years of the Peradeniya Medical Faculty and we have produced some outstanding graduates and postgraduates.
Some of these luminaries were addressing the academic sessions.
Unfortunately, I was involved in examinations and could not listen to all of them and the youngest guy who addressed the gathering had done some pioneering work on stem cells for his PhD and that included myocytes.
Went to Kandy for a bit of shopping and I forgot even I did not have my breakfast.
I really had some stomach pain which I dismissed as hunger pains.
Came home late and the lunch was cold I decided to have a little nap after a cup of tea.
But I woke up again and went to the loo and decided to skip the dinner thinking something amiss in my internal system and its physiology.
It was colicky and I would even pass it for a renal colic.
Night was cold and with empty stomach I was getting up almost every two hours to go to the loo.
I had SLF (Scientific Linux Fermi) Linux in download mode and once the power went off and I had to get up to switch off the computer and then on again when power was restored.
All these conditions were good enough for me to go into dream mode.
You may wonder why this preamble.
If I am in good physical condition I do not dream.
All the above irritations were enough to trigger a dream mode which I could remember afterward because of the interruptions.

The Dream.
I was in some miracle place which was a wide open space as if the earth was ready and collaborating with an alien ship.
I was the only soul who would dare to meet them in that open space.
I may have fainted on the floor at the sight of them or I may have been in real dream mode dreaming.
Either way it was a very pleasant moment.
Then I saw four columns of light rays gray in colour flat in disposition beaming on my tommy.
I felt quite nice.
Mind you I did not take any hallucinating drug to counter my stomachache.
In a moment my pain disappeared (in the dream mode).
I was not in anaesthetized mode and I could sense all what was going on and all in all very pleasing experience.
At one point I felt as if an alien was performing some operation to remove a stone in my bladder but I never saw a ship or any hint of it.
Then of course I woke with an urge to go to the loo again.
That is the long and short of the dream.
Since I have not sent a dream to Maha Brahma for a long time, this I though was a good entry point.
Posted it today being a Poya day, nothing else to do except installing S.L.F.
I must report to you this is the longest  Linux installation in my life and I guess it will take more than 16 hours.
I started it at 8 am and it is still at 833 package out of 1279.
Now it is stuck at Open Office.
If I did not have the dream by now I am very close to the pain of a heart attack.
My regular computer is at my disposal for communicating with the heaven.
Unlike our Telecoms Maha was prompt on voice mail almost immediately.
He asked me.
You did not go to the temple.
No.
Why?
This S.L.F (Scientific stuff was taking the longest time of my life for installation) but my dream was sweet but short, I told him.
You could have still gone to the temple with the installation on, wouldn't you?
No Sir, if the power goes off I have to start it all over again.
Did the power go off?
No Sir.
Well then, it is good.
I was entertaining the aliens didn't I?
NO.
You were in a private nursing home and they were doping you with drugs.
They were about to blast the bladder stone with ultrasound.
It is a simple job know Sir.
What nonsense.
They had put your ringed hand behind your back and had taken an x-ray and they thought it was a big bladder stone and tried to blast it in the theater.
Sir, I do not wear any signet rings with stones.
I know that.
It was a stone or ring (left behind) of a patient X-rayed before.
Or I see.
Then they would have seen the gold part of the ring know?
What gold it was a plastic ring.
The plastic part they interpreted as calcium and the central part they interpreted as uric.
Did they show it to the radiologist?
No.
He was on leave and was meditating, a Poya day know.
You mean to say I did not have a bladder stone.
No.
If they blasted the no-existent stone they would have blasted your bladder full of urine and you would have gone to heaven without my help.
That is why I interrupted the dream and made you to go to the loo.
My goodness! 
Can this type of thing happen in this country?
It happens every day.
But I never hear them know?
You mean to say that the nursing home will give you a call and tell you all the mishaps.
I suppose they will not.
Anyway thank for saving my bladder.
But I was stupid to empty my urine to a urinal and see whether there were any little stone pieces.
Did you see any?
No.
That is right, you did not have any stones.
It is only a gemstone under your buttocks!
Who will blast a gemstone in this country?
It will lose its carat weight, know?
In that case what is the interpretation?
Interpretation
In future they will depend on all technology for diagnosis.
There is no bedside diagnosis like in the good old days.
The kids are trained to become doctors from the womb.
They put electric probes into the brain and kill all other interests except medicine.
Then they transplant all the latest medical textbooks chips into your brain before one is  born.
The parents pay enormous amount for these electronic chip doctors implant in utero.
They have wireless connectivity so information is stored as and when necessary like in a hard disk.
It is actually a little S.S.D (solid state hard disk in your brain) implanted with sufficient memory to pass the final examination in Medicine.
Do they really work?
What nonsense?
If the wireless part breaks everything goes for a SIX.
They use the wireless connection  during medical examinations and help the guy or girl to pass the examination.
That all.
You know that medical textbooks do not get upgraded like Linux distributions.
Then what happens at the bedside?
One incident you have already seen in your dream.
I do not have to tell you some more.
No Sir.
Would you post this in your blog.
Yes Sir, almost immediately.
Why?
I am duty bound to reveal this for those who want to use their brains to become doctors without chips implanted in their brains.
Dream well and see you soon.
In a flash he disappeared.
