STATE OF WONDER - कान

Ann Patchett*: STATE OF WONDER

[*Queen Anne or a clone of Queen Anne?]

I read a bitterly angry novel (I cannot recall the name of the novel - My memory has suddenly gone blank! ... yes, now I remember ... you see, My memory is awesome ... THE GROVES OF ACADEME) by "aged" American novelist Mary McCarthy who "died" many years ago, according to Webster's Dictionary of Synonyms. I was surprised to find however that Mary's photo looked like seductive "hippy" Ms. Z whom I SAW (but did NOT speak to) in Bombay a year or so after I read that novel. Was Mary and Mr. Fox and other Foxes spying on Me (because they knew that I was Son of Lord KRISHNA) and she got very angry that I was not allowed to sit for the Delhi University B.Sc. Physics Hons. Part I exam by the authorities of St. Stephen's College ("ACADEME"), Delhi?

Poor sweet Ann Patchett and other poor sweet gals, Indian and foreign, have no idea how foxy Mr. Fox and other Foxes are - cunning unethical ghosts who will be unctuous to ingenuous gals to make lots of money by using the gals' names! My heart bleeds for the poor gals!

A young white American hippie who was My age told Me to call him "Steve" - "Call me Steve", he said - it was obvious to Me that his real name was NOT Steve and so I have kept calling him hippy Y in all My online posts - Y told Me in our shared room at modest Ravi Hotel in Bombay that sexy Ms. Z  would be coming soon and sharing our room and that she would excite Me sexually and I would enjoy having sex with her - how scandalous - I looked at hippy Z - the shameless guy just looked on. What a shameless guy! Luckily for Me, I ran out of cash and left the hotel for a few days and so I escaped sexual int. with sexy Ms. Z,** thank God. - G

** Mary Tudor, ex Queen of England?

Mary Tudor (first Queen of England and Ireland, uncharitably described by some as "Bloody Mary") was weak and ill from May 1558 and died on 17th November 1558, aged 42. Queen Mary was interred in Westminster Abbey on 14th December - [I guess Queen Mary's body was preserved for 27-28 days in a refrigerator of that time, perhaps an ice box - G] - in a tomb she would eventually share with Elizabeth, her half-sister who succeeded her to the throne. Philip, who was in Brussels, wrote to his sister Joan: "I felt a reasonable regret for her death."

THE LATIN INSCRIPTION ON THE SHARED TOMB of Queen Mary and Queen Elizabeth, translated into English: 

"Consorts in realm and tomb, we, sisters [Queen] Elizabeth and [Queen] Mary, here lie down to sleep in hope of resurrection."

तथास्तु !

The two Queens were DISINTERRED and REVIVED, I am sure.  

* Ann Patchett's face looks similar to My late "mother" who had the Indian name Sukhajyoti সুখজ্যোতি सुखज्योति [Light of Happiness]. I have the SUDDEN WEIRD FEELING that PERHAPS she was the reincarnation of Queen Anne, Queen of England and Ireland [Great Britain] and Scotland. (This is PURE SPECULATION.) Anyway, NO ONE KNEW My TOP SECRET IDENTITY - which I revealed to the world through My ONLINE posts ONLY AFTER I HAD ACCOMPLISHED MY MISSION, that is, ONLY AFTER DESTROYING F. RAPIST SATAN/KR. (LATE).

कान 

एक कान धर्मपत्नी को सुनने का नाटक कर रहा है, दुसरा कान वेचारी को सुन रहा है - धर्मपत्नी पूछती है, "क्यों मुस्कुरा रहे हो?", मैं एक quickly imagined कारण बताता हूं । - G

ALIEN COVENANT (STAR MOVIES)

Slow pace. A faster pace would have been welcome. Points being made not clear. (I like clarity and pace.) ***

*** Is this a euphemism for "tedious"?

Padding. Padding. Padding. Wasting My time. Why not come to the point faster? Tiresome obligation to make it 2 hours 30 minutes. Awful. How I wish it were made shorter, for God's sake. A terrific idea needs terrific execution. Anyway, thanks for the attractive title. I will go to YouTube, I think. Good Luck... The film began so well. The first few minutes were very interesting. Then ... disappointing! - G
