Foremost,
Anyways, this piece is for a competition, they asked, "Why is a Raven like a writing desk?", I read it once, twice and third time even my mind gave up, asking,"What the dickens! Is it even English?". Leave out the whole saying, honestly speaking, I initially thought Raven is Anglocized pronunciation of the late Lankan beast! A quick research proved me wrong, no qualms about it...great failures come to greatest thinkers only. More research and I found, its not even a saying, it's a riddle and according to certain Mr. Lewis Carroll, who apparently is also its author, he never intended for there to be any real answer to the question!---duh!! IITians have gone really mad I think, and more mad are gone those civilians who are demanding their schmutz to make their babies. The news of latter left me flummoxed, seriously, I condemn it and in my opinion its an international conspiracy to indulge the most technical hands in country in sleaziest of activities.Oops! I did a little typo there, I meant heads. What! Why are you gawking ?? Yeah I know I have a very prude mazard, rather an ever wondering-creative-innovative mind. Still, if I hurt some sentiments anywhere then I lament it, but please don't hurl shoe over me, save them for political class and ignore me.Ah! ignorance..if truth to be told, I share a heart warming relation with ignorance. Actually, once my teacher in seventh standard told me that ignorance is a bliss, God knows how much blissed out I have been in my school and college life since then. Anyways, coming back to Raven graven, brother Google just introduced me to certain Mr. Poe. This man had achieved a rear feat of writing on both, desk and Raven. Now, how can you write on a Raven! Poor bird would die of irritation caused by constant scribbling of pen on its back. May be at Poe's time there weren't used to be ladies with God gifted assets who can make people to respect animals by using placards to cover themselves in public. For God sake, perverts, read those messages too! In between, a brief perusal of whatever I wrote till now gave me strong feeling that i am being quite antithetical to opposite sex, but no! I am not at all a misogynist, au contraire, I love women on top! This is a high time when we men should lie back and let women enjoy the hegemony.
"I wrote this on the day when Wikipedia went black!"
Okay! The short prologue would have given you an inkling that how much pain I actually had to bear to bring out this exceptional piece of literature.Period. Oh! thanks for appreciation but there's nothing exemplary in whatever I did, it's a very significant nature of homosapien race--to take an extra step, to push things forward, even if inertia plays havoc with his endeared pair of spheres. So today, I took the plunge into it, unleashing superpowers of this thing called Google and look, now I am all loaded with different tips and tricks on 'how to avoid blacked out Wiki', from disabling javascript to pressing escape(hell! I must tell you that the Esc key, which is usually left out alone in keyboard, was socially never so much popular. It's trending Twitter worldwide!). I love Google, at times it makes me feel like Justin Long in Die Hard 4.0--a much needed boost to my sagging morale.

Thank you SOPA/PIPA, my Esc key gave up, it just died out of pain which I enforced on it to save some Wiki pages to go black...huh! Internet protection laws are really such wasted ideas, drafted by U.S. Congressmen, in hurry, as they couldn't resist the under table games of some Lewinskies. Seriously, do they even sound like laws??...In fact PIPA reminds me of sister of grand daughter-in-law of Her Royal Highness Queen of Great Britain, Pippa Middleton. Apart from a family relation, the other majestic thing about her is her ownership of a well, in shape derriere that tremendously helped in increasing the TRP of Royal wedding footage to astonishing levels. And I personally have dedicated a New Folder(5) in E: drive to her, in respect of recognition she garnered because of this feat.
Anyway, the poor Raven just flew off, leaving behind still fresh marks of beats on my mind and may be on yours too. So, the most I can do now is to thank you for bearing with me for so much time ,and about "Why is a Raven like a writing desk?", I must tell you that just like Mad Hatter in Alice's Adventures in Wonderland,
"I haven't the slightest of idea!!"
Peace.
No!..it doesn't end here...it actually starts here...let us add some stars to this post...:)
P.S.: I am reading this again in 2015, and this post looks so ridiculous. Actually it was for a blog writing competition in IITR, India, back in 2012, when I was still in college. The topic was given by them but humor was mine. ;)
