well i am assuming that the deer miscalculated the effect of moisture on paintings. He/She should have converted it into a .jpeg file and burned it on a DVD and alsouploaded it into a torrent site.
@the lad: Oh. Did you know that that is a story that has been passed down for generations in Malluland and is called "Manjakkaalan kunji kozhiyum aakashavum"?! :)
This deer clearly lacks a few brain cells. What she ought to have done was to watch a few episodes Monty Python to know that the picture frame is no barrier to a sufficiently determined painted creature.
@Verun: Ello?! Has no one been listening? It is a deer in a painting, Verun; it doesn't possess brain cells to be determined enough. Unfortunate, but there it is.
@the lad: Even if the Deer Parade were to shell out enough dough for a MediaPro account, the deer would still have trouble handling all the details, for lack of brain cells.
If a deer were to die for lack of green grass in a painting, does it, philosophically speaking, reduce the number of souls on Earth? (Terry Pratchett has all rights to many wacky ideas.)
Well said, Varun. It's just too long a span to live for. I wouldn't want to be frozen in time, an insect trapped in amber, and watch whatever I love whither away.
this is rather late, but i wud like to commend varun... All hail the true Lord!!! @parivrajak: ur lack of faith (wrt to tolkien) is disturbing... (Star Wars fans shud get the joke) @all of u (apart from the piper): Immortality is pointless for us mortals... remember what Elrond says about the men of Gondor at the Council in Rivendell- he attributes one reason of their decay to the obsession of their philosophers and old men with finding the secret of immortality, and let us not forget Ar-Pharazon and what his obsession with immortality did to him. Immotality debates have two characteristics that make them stupid and dangerous: 1) we get into them essentially out of fear of our own mortality, even when trying to debate in abstract or curiosity 2) as time goes on, even debates where we are trying to understand whether they are desirable or not, the aforementioned fear strikes us, causing us to do stupid things, or waste our lives striving to achieve immortality. Remember that mortality is the "Gift of the Secondborn", live your life without seeking to attain any more immortality than that which your deeds bring you, live in the moment, without striving for existential meaning- life needs no external meaning, as long as you live your life in a manner that u feel is dignified, all else is pointless speculation and faff that will only leave you with a negative view of this world. *realises that has become massively philosophical on a long over argument, but well wanted to make a point*

Did you hear of the indomitable Gauls who were afraid of the sky falling on their heads?
They lived in comic books.

@Parivrajak: This was the second thing that crossed my mind when I read your post. :)
@ Mattu: Mattu my man, what if she lived here? What use would a torrent be? Megaupload is a far better option.
well putting it in a torrent will then make sure its immortality.

@mattu:
torrent files ensure immortality how?!

@Mattu and the lad
Mediafire ensures immortality.
@ Parivrajak:
You don't say! Really? So cool! :)
@ Varun:
Nope, not even Mediafire. http://support.mediafire.com/index.php?_m=knowledgebase&_a=viewarticle&kbarticleid=2&nav=0
And where will a deer get the dough for a MediaPro account?
The question we need to ask is: is immortality even desirable?

The number of hooves, yes. :D
*sticks tongue out*
That is a good one. :D
*takes a bow*
Thank you, thank you!
As always! :P
*applauds Bonnie Lad*
*feels a sense of emptiness now that Mediafire no more guarantees immortality*
*But then realises immortality would suck*
*consoles himself by laughing at Pariv Rajak's non-existent sense of humour*
:/ :) :p :D
*wonders what does constitute immortality, and why it would suck*
*thinks the Lad's good jokes are a rarity, but thankfully not non-existent*
*throws huge heavy ball at verun who dares slime her sense of humour*
Immortality would suck because it only has value as long as you are a mortal.
*Finds huge heavy ball hitting feet due to Parivrajak's vertically-challenged state*
*shakes head disapprovingly at Parivrajak copying his (TM) style of putting phrases between asterisks*
Oh. That is true. Wow.
Psh. Vertically challenged indeed.
*disapproves of the fact that Verun is trying to trademark public property*
Well said, Varun.

wither*
@the lad:
I dunno about that. I remember both the Elves and the Tucks. But then, those stories were written by mortals.
An Elf will have other Elves, all immortal, for company. We, however, won't.
Didn't know about Tucks. Wikied em. :)
@the lad:
But remember Tolkien makes Galadriel (?) say they see the birth and the passing of the times, weary of change?
also, if I remember right, in the Silmarillion, death is described as the gift of Iluvatar to men.
Tolkien may have been mortal, but he's as close to a god that we're going to get :)
Tolkien saw death as a gift, yes. Remember he tells Arwen that she will see Aragorn wilting, while she will still be fresh as a flower?
Dunno abt Tolkien as a god, though. :) :)
Varun: Well said!
