Blogworld never seems to run out of ideas when it comes to tags. I have a suspicion - that tags are generated when people run out of blogging ideas. Atleast that would seem so reading Tagged.
Anyway tags are useful to the Tagged, as a time for some introspection as well as an opportunity for creative writing.
As for the readers, tags are useful in giving an insight into the writer's mind, how they interpret tags, their perceptions, attitudes and values in life etc.
Right now several tags are doing the rounds, of which the tag on judging people caught my eye. I am presenting two tags here:
Itchy's - The Judgement Day - because, Itchy's lists are incomparable.
Hip Hop Gmom's - Judgementally Yours!
Now, G'mom isn't one who talks only of negatives, so here's another tag on An Admirable group!, a tag that very nicely complements her other tag. Very rarely do I get to see such a point of view as hers. If I were to do that tag - G'mom would be there on the list, for this quality of hers.
Though I haven't done the tags mentioned - I would like to tag Alpha to do the above tags, just to see she her 'perspective' of the tags. :) One might wonder at this sudden love for Alpha that I've developed, but you've just got to go through her picks to understand. I dont know how to put an appropriate emoticon here.

Biology between two persons...
Biological relations - nope; Relations in Biology - terrible; Relationships explained in Biology - hmmm; Nomenclatural classifications of organismal interactions in real life - yuk - sounds like a title of a research paper. Biology between two persons... YES!
That was a tough one - I mean - getting the title for this post right. Finally I gave in to sensationalism rather than to correctness. After all we bloghoppers need to live a life - and the number of hits/comments do make our life.
After having met
Alpha The Storyteller
Alpha The Intrepid Host
now meet Alpha - The Biology Teacher in her post La Symbiose à Paris
PS: Don't blame me if you didn't get what you expected. I too was expecting more, only to see that the narrative, after a gripping start, ended rather tamely. :(

1001 ways to have a social life...
You are in a new town/country; you have no friends, atleast none who fit your expectations as friends - what do you do? Forget the 1000 ways that normal people would prefer - here's the one idea that makes you one in a million. For those who don't understand the math involved, please contact me.
You put up a friendimonial [the word is already copyrighted :( ].
Now who would ever answer such an advertisement unless they were_____ (fill in the blanks as per your perception/choice).
Alpha might qualify for whatever word you've chosen to fill the blanks with. For she did respond to the friendimonial - read her account in One Desperate Soul to Another.
But, there are the doubters, who say that the entire episode is a fast one pulled off by Alpha, and would not believe it unless Alpha put up the reply, which Alpha has promptly done and is documented at - Only Fools Rush In.
Have a nice weekend preferably looking at some of the Pieces of The Puzzle.

Storytime with Alpha and Rhyncus
Alpha & Rhyncus - sounds Greek? Sure does!
Apart from seeming to share a common heritage, they also seem to share a literary bond, in that Alpha ('s real life incidents) has proved to be the muse of some of Rhyncus's writings.
Alpha's - Good Samaritan under Trial - poses a Great Dilemma. One can only speculate what could have been, had Alpha.....
Now stop tut.. tutting and read what Rhyncus has to say - Chivalry is death.
Ah, Now you understand!
Here is another episode from Alpha's life - Encounter in The Train, and Rhyncus completes the story by giving a gripping account of the other side - Close Encounters of The Train Kind.
Vaarwel. Does that sound Dutch? How right you are! It is indeed Goodbye in Dutch.
