The Anatomy of a Piccaro!

After a very long absence I come back with a post which I feel everyone will find interesting specially the "Piccaroes". Now what does that last word mean. I assume that you have not heard it before. Well no its not a Spanish or Italian as it most certainly sounds like one. You will find it even more enigmatic if i say that its an English word. You might contemplate murder if I say that the word has been coined by people I know. Well I am not lying! Yes,the word is indeed English but it does not fall into the average vocabulary of a college going teenager. But I plan to change it all. Maybe after a few years or decades the word might find its place in an English dictionary.
But I have been beating about the bush till now. What exactly does the word mean? If you are an Assamese then you might have heard the word "Seni". Well that word means a boy or more specifically a man who flirts with girls unnecessarily, well you might say that anyone who flirts does it unnecessarily. Well in a sense that's correct but a "Seni" does it more out of habit then any other thing. Well after much searching I could not find an English equavalent to that crude word. When I said that to my friend Sidhartha Sankar Nath then we decieded why not create a word to mean the exact same thing in English.
We thought for some days and came out with a list of words which had no standard meaning in the English language.But Sidhrtha's choice of words were better than mine and at last we selected the word "Piccaro" to mean what we had in mind. Still we felt that in the days of female equality we had better give another word for our female counterparts to mean the same and we hit upon "Faggi".
Let me give you a brief meaning of the word "Piccaro" ;the meanings for "Faggi' are the same must it only applies for the females.
Piccaro(noun) means a person specifically a man who flirts with girls and spends unnecessary time with them. He does this for the pleasure of it without going into any long term relationship.
Maybe you all use this word and who knows it might get into use much sooner!
Toodles for now....will meet next time!!!

The Ultimate Feynmanist!

Well after writing about my dream girl last time (To tell the truth not my dream girl actually), I try this time to give you some insight into my philosophy about life. Now I don’t want to sound like a fat headed guy giving out advices to others but still as I had already pointed out in the previous blog here I try to speak only about things that are close to my heart.

And surely as you all might have guessed Mr. Feynman is certainly close to my heart. My first brush with Dr. Richard Philips Feynman was in 2007 while I was reading my Physics text book. Then I did not give much damn to that name but when gradually it started popping up in my surroundings I started to pursue him with some respect. Then I purchased a book called “Surely you’re joking Mr. Feynman” which are his memoirs and then was I mesmerized by the genius of a man. R.P. Feynman has become my idol in the past few months and I genuinely get up to him to help me out either in Physics or in real life.

Now the book Surely…. Is not easily available in India and I was lucky enough to get it and I think I might have the only genuine copy of that book in my state (Assam). But the internet has been a spoilsport as the book is available for anyone who knows how to use Google to his benefit. Now I have got more books of him and still I am insatiable.

Coming back to the title of this post! Well I have coined the words Feynmanist and Feynmanism to describe myself more than is possible. As I follow Feynmanism so I am a Feynmanist. I wonder how many other people are Feynmanists! The philosophy that Feynman advocated was a one of which he was extremely proud. He dealt only on those things he enjoyed and this has been my forte too. Looking back I wonder how that single man could have done so much and left so much of his legacy. I certainly try to further it but I am not satisfied. Maybe someday I might eclipse Feynman in it and earn some name at least.

(N.B: I have decided to keep the current blog template for a few days until I find a more suitable one.)
