Feku the Fraudster on a Throne


Feku the fraudster sat on a throne
Feku the fraudster pulled a fast one
A masterstroke! A masterstroke!
Feku the fraudster set everything afire
Now, put out the fire, put out the fire
Feku the fraudster laughed, yelled and cried
A masterstroke! A masterstroke!
Feku the fraudster laughed, yelled and cried
All the fraudster’s cows and toadies
Went around, in circles, in circles
Couldn’t put out the engulfing fire
Feku the fraudster’s tail was now afire
And, all over a burning hell fire.

It is Zuckerberg who is insisting on offering that! He is lobbying hard to induce 'poor Indians' into accepting what he is pushing as ‘free’ service, claiming that he is doing it to benefit the poor. ...

Bose Corp. is the maker of some of the best sound systems in the world. Perhaps, Dr Bose was to acoustic engineering and design, what Steve Jobs was to computing. Very different personality. But he brought in disruptive innovation. The presence of Bose Systems was felt by the sound, not through any visual flamboyance of the product. Some of the systems were totally hidden. Understated elegance with unparalleled sound quality. They were expensive, premium products meant for those who really cared a great deal about sound quality and were willing to pay for it. Bose Corporation is a privately held company, with majority shares given to MIT, by Dr Bose. The dividends support education and research. I finally became a proud owner of a Bose system only recently, when I managed to get a modestly priced product at a Bose store. On that day ther...
