Well, I guess I could just wait a weekend or two. I'm not really expecting something comparable to The Dark Knight. No offense.

Just wanted to share something before I get emo after watching a part of the very...well...made Your Song - Only Hope (haha, LOL). Crap. I still remember the lines (definitely NOT verbatim):

Gerald: (saying something about na sila na)
Kim: Kelan pa ba naging tayo?
Gerald: Matagal na.
Kim: Paano mo naman nasabi yun? (lumayo)
Gerald: Dahil mahal kita.
Kim: Bakit? Sinabi ko ba na mahal din kita?
Gerald: Bakit? (approches Kim from behind) Hindi ba?

LOL.

Legal case against God?

Copy-Pasted from http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/americas/7673591.stm

-------------------------------

Legal case against God dismissed

God on a cloud in a 18th century depiction
The plaintiff argued an omniscient God would know of the lawsuit

A US judge has thrown out a case against God, ruling that because the defendant has no address, legal papers cannot be served.

The suit was launched by Nebraska state senator Ernie Chambers, who said he might appeal against the ruling.

He sought a permanent injunction to prevent the "death, destruction and terrorisation" caused by God.

Judge Marlon Polk said in his ruling that a plaintiff must have access to the defendant for a case to proceed.

"Given that this court finds that there can never be service effectuated on the named defendant this action will be dismissed with prejudice," Judge Polk wrote in his ruling.

Mr Chambers cannot refile the suit but may appeal.

'God knows everything'

Mr Chambers sued God last year. He said God had threatened him and the people of Nebraska and had inflicted "widespread death, destruction and terrorisation of millions upon millions of the Earth's inhabitants".

He said he would carefully consider Judge Polk's ruling before deciding whether to appeal.

The court, Mr Chambers said, had acknowledged the existence of God and "a consequence of that acknowledgement is a recognition of God's omniscience".

"Since God knows everything," he reasoned, "God has notice of this lawsuit."

Mr Chambers, a state senator for 38 years, said he filed the suit to make the point that "anyone can sue anyone else, even God".

Haha, I'm sure God knows the final verdict.

The (Ir)Rational of Things

Realize
Colbie Caillat

Take time to realize,
That your worth is
Crashing down on in.
Take time to realize,
That I am on your si-i-i-de
Didn't I, didn't I tell you.

But I can't spell it out for you,
No, it's never gonna be that simple
But I can't spell it out for you

Chorus:
If you just realize what I've just realized,
Then we'd be perfect for each other
And we'll never find another
Just realized what I just realized
We'd never have to wonder if
We missed out on each other now.

Take time to realize
Oh-oh I'm on your si-i-i-de
Didn't I, didn't I tell you.
Take time to realize
That this all can pass by
Didn't I didn't I tell you

Refrain:
But I can't spell it out for you,
No it's never gonna be that simple
But I can't spell it out for you.

Chorus:
If you just realized what I just realized
Then we'd be perfect for each other
And we'd never find another
Just realized what I've just realized
We'd never have to wonder if
We missed out on each other but.

Verse 3:
It's not that the same
No it's never the sa-a-ame
If you don't feel it too.
If you meet me half way
If you 'd meet me half way.
It could be the same for you.

Chorus:
If you just realize what I just realized
Then we'd be perfect for each other
And we'd never find another
Just realize what I just realized
We'd never have to wonder no-o-w

Just realize what I just realized

If you just realize what I just realized

Oh...

Missed out on each other now
Missed out on each other now
Missed out on each other now

Realize, realize
Realize, realize
-------------------------------------------

When I had the chance to dissect the words of this song, it hit me. There are two sides to everything: the rational and the irrational.

What seems rational, is what we make up out of what we perceive. It is the image produced by the filters of our brain to make things seem cohesive. It is what man has been trying to develop. It is what man has made up of things, that a long time ago were just like floating pieces of the puzzle.

The irrational is the space we allow for things that we haven't conquered. It is the extra pieces of paper the brain does not make use of. It is the realm of which we try to develop, but never successfully. It is what man fails to grasp, and will never ever seem to.

When we are presented with something, like let's say love, we automatically go through the process of (ir)rationalizaing - trying to see what makes sense in what we feel, and what seems unpredictable and mysterious. And I think this is what makes love beautiful. While we know we have something about it that we can understand, the irrationality of love makes the whole thing a human thing. Something too rational is mechanical - machine-like and very straightforward. Too much irrationality is something worse than the random paint splatters of abstract art.

Love is both rational and irrational. Like they say, it's supposed to be the brain and the heart, figuratively.

On the Other Hand (Useless Post No. 5)

TWILIGHT the movie is moved to November 21!

So, if the movie's release was January 9, 2009 in the Philippines when the US release was December 12, 2008, because of the MMFF, I sure do hope they would show it earlier here because of the move.

BUT STILL, Harry Potter.............................
