“Ghost in the shell” : The laughing man

March 9th, 2009 § 0 comments § permalink

Well due to one of my best friends i have got rather addicted to GITS :) or “The ghost in the shell”, an awesome japanese anime series. There is a concept or rather a case of the laughing man, and the basis for that is a JD Salinger short story of the same name. I take this post to link up to that story, hope you all have a great week ahead.

Soon the Laughing Man was regularly crossing the Chinese border into Paris, France, where he enjoyed flaunting his high but modest genius in the face of Marcel Dufarge, the internationally famous detective and witty consumptive. Dufarge and his daughter (an exquisite girl, though something of a transvestite) became the Laughing Man’s bitterest enemies. Time and again, they tried leading the Laughing Man up the garden path. For sheer sport, the Laughing Man usually went halfway with them, then vanished, often leaving no even faintly credible indication of his escape method. Just now and then he posted an incisive little farewell note in the Paris sewerage system, and it was delivered promptly to Dufarge’s boot. The Dufarges spent an enormous amount of time sloshing around in the Paris sewers.

(CNN) — Researchers have produced aerial photos of jungle dwellers who they say are among the few remaining peoples on Earth who have had no contact with the outside world.

A very random story on this picture, njoi

***********************************************************************************************

Vellan and Tipsy were sitting, happily looking at Bela their *ummm* hot wife, well this is one of the few surviving matriarchal societies (isolated from society, now you know why). If you do notice, there is a slight smirk on Bela’s face … thats is where the story starts.

Bela , Vellan, Tipsy the happy amazonian jungle family are young adults in their highly ‘consumer’ist economy. Spending some food to barter cool leafy summer wear is now-a-day very common, all the elders think this is crap but then societies evolve. Today is Bela’s birthday and the young guys want to impress her (after all an eventful night is at stake), there is a rumor that strange looking birds have been flying around … .so the bet between Vellan and Tipsy is to catch that bird. In all possibility we can say that this was one bet well beyond their reach, turns out Bela got Wimpy, their neighborhood food guy to take her out for the night. The so called researchers spoilt some amazonian’s wet dream …. nice guys finish last they say
