Travelling Without Moving

I have never really understood what Jamiroquai meant by "Travelling without Moving" when it was released..hmm... 6 years ago? I always really thought that it really meant one of those teleporting Star Trek thingy which he managed to dream up in one of his cocaine infused binges..recently though I realised one thing.... Travelling without moving... is what I've been doing...

I have been travelling... alot.. one place to the other, one country to another, one office to another.. and in all of my travels I have experienced a lot of things... new sights, sounds, images, point of view, cultures...but I haven't been moving... I'm still here... in this job, doing the same things, solving the same problem, saying the same things over and over... instructing the same things, to different people, maybe, but the same things..sometimes I would really catch myself saying something I have said before, somewhere...a "deja vu" moment, if you may.

and I think...most people, are really travelling without moving.. going with their everyday duties, but not getting anywhere, just making it through the day... it really sounds sad..but it isn't really.. it's just real life..

the secret's out... the realisations here...so, wilson, time to get off your ass..and start moving..where? maybe I'll just join on someone's wild ride and see where it gets me...

Karaoke, thou shalt be nameless..

Of all the unimportant things I've ever done... this must surely rank at the top of the list...had karaoke with a bunch of friends last night.... I won't bore you with the details, I believe you will have been in a karaoke joint at some point in your life, either by free will, or with some gentle persuasion (translation: blackmail)..

to make the points short and sweet... you should experience a karaoke..with all your buddies singing mandarin..I really didn't realise there were so many mandarin songs.... and after a while..they really start to sound the same..... :-( thank god there were still english songs....
