Black holing with Slick!!!

One day when I was feeling a little lonely and blue, Slick came to cheer me up. "So, who wants to go for a Ked Lepellin concert?" he said and he winked. You can imagine my delight. He not only had tickets for the concert, but an invite to their after party(one guest allowed). "Let's go! what're we waiting for!" I said as I ran to his ultra cool spaceship. And off we went to see the concert. Now, Slick had recently taught me how to calculate the path through which we need to travel to get to a particular location in space and i must say i had gotten very good at it. But, today was not my day. My blueness caused me to be a little absent-minded and i did not re check my calculations.
So, we're travelling at the speed of light and we got gobbled up by a black hole before Slick could say "You idiot."
However, his spaceship is very well designed and didn't get torn apart. Hence, neither did we. (I cannot go into the details of how the spaceship was built due to 2 reasons - 1) It's beyond your comprehension level and 2) It would make this blog too big for my taste. )
We ended up on the other side of the black hole. Now, what's on the other side of a black hole you ask me? Honestly, I don't know. But, Slick and I ended up at the Ked Lepellin concert! How strange? But, things got stranger. Up on stage the lead singer was singing, only it wasn't him. A man with a horrible horrible voice was singing. It was Dr.Anonymous who was singing. And what's more, the crowd threw every piece of rubbish they could find on the guy. (not surprising actually. the guy's just not meant to be a singer. But, somehow, in this universe he is.) Yes, yes that's right. We ended up in another universe.
Before we could think of what to do next, Dr. Anonymous's usual spacecraft came, and out came the lead singer holding what seemed to be a big mike in his hand. The crowd gasped in fear. All of them closed their ears. Slick and I wondered why. Then he sang into the mike.We heard a powerful, dark song and we shuddered as we listened to it. Both of us closed our ears too. But, it wasn't good enough. My favourite band's singer is scaring me. I do not like this. I said, "Slick, we need to get out of here." He said, "We need to find that black hole again". So, we ran back into our spaceship and I got ear muffs to help Slick concentrate while he re calculated co-ordinates. (It's quite surprising, that no set of advanced ear muffs were developed in our universe. Nobody thought of creating dark and powerful songs in our universe either when you look at it that way.)
So, after he calculated, we quickly took off and sped towards the black hole again that gobbled us back to our home universe and boy was I glad to be back.(All the blueness evaporated.)
the concert turned out to be one of their best performances yet!

A little post

The old and wise people, long gone now, believed that teleportation and telepathy could be achieved with the mind. They said that if you wanted to go to a different place in an instant, all you had to do was WANT (and i mean really want!) to got to that place so much that if you closed your eyes and convinced your mind that you were at that place, then you would find yourself there.
It works the same way for telepathy too. You need to really WANT to talk to that person through all the distance and the barriers.
How all of this might work, I'm not really sure. But, I think it has something to do with Mind being over Matter.

For eternity

They say that there was a galaxy once upon a time, that existed for only a second. Where and when the galaxy went, I cannot quite explain. Neither can i explain its disappearance. From whatever information I have been able to gather, this is what happened - the galaxy seemed to just fade away. Stars died, gases dissolved in space and the galaxy was gone (probably because of a black hole that must have formed due to the death of a star or something). Anyway, this has nothing to do with what the point of this post is supposed to be.
What I really wonder about was whether the galaxy lived for just one second or 10^9 nanoseconds.
If a nanosecond in the galaxy seemed as much as a 100,000 years seems in our galaxy, then this galaxy didn't exist for just a second but existed for an eternity.
And what if a 10,000,000 years for us seems like just a second in another place? It would mean existing for eternity in another eternity. The universe may thus, seem to us like it's going to exist forever because inside every "forever" is another "forever".

Dimensionless

If you know anything about how the system of dimensions works, you would know that there may be a dimension in which you may be a lonely bar tender, or another in which you're a genius crime investigator, or another in which you don't exist, or another, or another......so on.
What you did not know is that there are some.... a handful perhaps, who exist only in one dimension. They're born not belonging to any dimension. This means that it's not only one dimension they exist in, but they can exist in any dimension they want at any point of time.
Most of these, okay, all of these people have the power to detect the presence of an opening to another dimension and travel through space and time and dimensions. They can feel the presence of another dimension when they pass by. (okay it's not as easy as that! But there's no doubt that they don't have a special ability that the rest of us don't or haven't been able to develop.)
Such people are called "Wanderers." There are about 10 wanderers known to us so far. Some are do-gooders. One of them tried to make people he met fit in and if they didn't fit in in their dimension, he'd take them to another.Some on the other hand were quite the evil geniuses. Take Wander for example (He's changed his name to that. Nobody knows his real name.) At first, he used to steal money from large corporate banks and sneak off to another dimension. But, his mind powers developed (as they do for Wanderers) to such an extent that he tried to steal planets in to another dimension where he planned to start his very own galactic empire. It may have worked too and Ishnaa may not have been able to stop him if it weren't for one of those planets spinning out of orbit and on a collision course for another because he miscalculated the gravitational force. The only way to stop that was to turn back time.... which Wander managed to do(because he isn't that evil!). Henceforth, Wander was kept on an isolated planet where people occasionally came to visit him so he doesn't go completely mad(if you know what i'm saying). This is where Ishnaa meets him.

Thief of Luck - Sounds like the Universe

He sat by the river concentrating as hard as he could. Listening to the sound of the universe is difficult to accomplish. But,Wander had mastered the art of listening. He heard the sound of water flowing, the whistle of the wind,the swish of the blades of grass...."concentrate harder", he thought to himself. As he listened past the sounds of his everyday life, a single note seemed to vibrate. It got louder and louder....till his head seemed completely filled and about to explode with the sound. The resonance in his brain was making it harder and more painful to concentrate. But, then he remembered - "The ears are for hearing. The mind is for listening and the mind is infinite..." A smile ran across his face. The pain disappeared and the sound became silence. Faintly, he listened to the the sound of the electrons revolving, the sound of quarks and strings vibrating,the sound of gravity,the unraveling of threads in the fabric of space and time...that's the one he wanted. He listened for it a little harder. It was only a single strand but there would be an infinitely large gap in the universe when that strand opens up."I wonder where and when this opening would lead to." In a small instant, his concentration was broken when he felt someone hold him up by his collar. He opened his eyes to find Ishnaa looking down at him."Hello Wander.Remember me?"

Unblanketted Dreams

Once upon a time,there lived a boy with a blank mind. The past being long forgotten, he grew up to be a man with a blank mind.There was nothing that the man had to do. Nil had he to say to anyone and zilch had he to remember.People saw him wandering aimlessly around the universe or sitting down in any place not knowing why he chose to sit there and then.What was his name? I'd tell you if he had remembered it and told it to someone!
However,a curious,young fellow named Ves went in search of this man after hearing about him.He wondered, "how could a mind be blank? There must be something that he thinks about."
After travelling for many many years as Ves got lost due to bad directions given by arbit strangers, he found this man by chance in one of the many worlds in the universe.To his astonishment,he found the man's mind was in fact blank!But, how can that be?This does not make sense.It is impossible!Unable to take in this fact, he continued to pursue the man.
One seemingly ordinary day,something extraordinary happened.The strange man was sleeping.Ves sat beside him thinking about how no thoughts must be running in that mind even as he sleeps.Suddenly,everything seemed to change around him.The ground beneath him vanished.The blue sky changed to black.He found himself floating in nothing. And then it all flashed by him. He saw worlds being built. Worlds with purple seas and moons in shades of grey and gold.He saw skies being painted.Painted to perfection if there was something to measure perfect.And worlds were destroyed before his eyes.Hills and mountains crumbled to water! Some even vanished into nothing as if they never existed and it was true....they never existed.And as he saw the magnitude of the entire universe he felt the magnitude of it.The great,heavy,powerful magnitude of it.It was at that point of time that he could no longer bear any of it that he woke up, realising that he had been sleeping the whole time.He looked all around him and saw that everything was exactly the same.He saw the man sleeping next to him.He sat back down next to the man and calmed himself down.The colour of the sky changed as evening became night. Ves looked at it.Marvelled it.And then,he headed back home.

Love stories of the cosmos

Love - that universal feeling that can act as an arbitrator between two or more communities, create confusion unlike any other force, start great wars that change the course of history, bring those great wars to an end etc.
And great, exaggerated stories of love that continue to keep beings obsessed with love, are always told.
This post here comprises of the top 5 love stories of the cosmos.

NO.5: The blind cyclops and the one-eared Armatian

This story is about a blind cyclops who falls in love when he hears the enchanting voice of an Armatian.For the information of those who don't know who Armatians are,
they are all female beings from the planet Arms and considered to be the most beautiful of all.The Armatian fell in love with the cyclops too and came to sing for him everyday.
The cyclops went to a high technology hospital where they repaired his eye.But,when he comes back to meet the Armatian whom he had fallen in love with,he is shocked to find that the Armatian beauty did not have one ear and wasn't a beauty at all,quite the opposite in fact.In his pride,he pokes his eye out and lets out an annoyingly loud scream.The Armatian,in her grief,lops her only ear off(of course,it was also to shut out the never-ending loud scream that continued to echo in her head.Stupid Armatians...).
You can see why this story is no.5.

NO.4:The Narcissist and the unknown beautiful stalker

This tale is about a man,Edon, who is so beautiful that he falls in love with himself from the 12th dimension from this one. Everyday he'd go through a tear in the space fabric to the 12th dimension to stalk himself. But,on one of his journeys an unknown beautiful woman from the 5th dimension,who was travelling through the same tear, falls in love with him and starts stalking him. Eventually, the unknown beautiful stalker snaps the man out of love with himself and in love with her.
Quite the romantic comedy.

NO.3:Looking through the wormhole

This story is about an Earth woman Debbie whose mail box happened to be a wormhole. All her letters,fortunately,kept getting delivered to the wrong address.Millions of light years away,on the other end of the mailbox,lived a man,Aros,who recieved every letter from Debbie and fell in love with her. He sent back letters to Debbie from his end of the wormhole and that was the start of a great long distance romance.
In the end, Aros braves the journey through the wormhole to reach Debbie. The comic twist in the tale is that when he comes out at the other end,both of them realise that Aros was exactly the size of the opening for letters in the mail box.

No.2:Loop me to be no older than you!

Rad was the top of his class in Science. He was no doubt a genius and was one of the few to be offered on an educational tour of the universe. On one of the planets that he visited, he falls in love with Cloe,an inhabitant of the planet who falls right back in love with him. Unfortunately,for the both of them,Cloe aged a 100 years in one day for Rad.
Rad,being the genius that he is, finds a way to create a loop in the timeline and travels back everyday to meet a Cloe exactly 1 day older.

No.1: Romeo and Juliet

Congratulations Earthlings!
