I created a new Zazzle stamp (personalized stamp): MAHATMA


If you think that the stamp color scheme that I have chosen evokes the flag of the Republic of India (Hindiभारत गणराज्य Bhārat Gaṇarājya) - you're right.




Mohandas K. "Mahatma" Gandhi's statue in front of the Embassy of India, Washington, D.C.
Yes, he spoke softly (but convincingly).
And yes, he was carrying a long stick - but not for violent purposes.
No Kendo fighting, and no "attitude adjuster" purpose.
Unfortunately, there are many times and places where non-violence just DOESN'T WORK.
"Watcha gonna do, watcha gonna do
When they come for you?
Bad boys, bad boys..."
Then you find a method that works.
"The only way to beat a BULLY is to be a bigger BULLY" - said Muhammad Ali, my most favorite boxer.

Year of the Tiger Shark - look carefully at this
shark(s) image below (click on the image):



I want you to notice that the bait was grabbed by a tiger shark ("THE BULLY"), and then he himself was grabbed by a much bigger tiger shark ("THE BIGGER BULLY").
Yeah, same species, but hey! Nothing personal - just business (hunting for food).
Reality check: survival of the "baddest". The "best" during the decisive moment.
Human society is no different. Or is it?

A phenomenal female guitarist:

"Orianthi Panagaris, known mononymously as Orianthi, is an Australian singer and guitarist. Orianthi is best known for being Michael Jackson's guitarist for his comeback concert series, This Is It. Her debut single "According to You" has peaked at #6 in Australia and #21 in the US, and her debut album Believe was released throughout the last three months of 2009 worldwide."
"Orianthi was born in Adelaide, South Australia, of Greek descent. She suffered against bullies in her schooling years and had to change schools a number of times.[citation needed] She eventually attended the prestigious school Cabra Dominican College where she found herself happy and bully free."

"Dorincard: Blogger Dorin C is a stamp and postcard fanatic, and luckily he's more than pleased to write prolifically and charmingly about his obsession. He has a particular bent for stamps with wild mammals on them, but his blog demonstrates an affinity for stamps of all forms and backgrounds, as long as they offer a special narrative that's worth sharing with his readers.

    Postcards and stamps, mainly featuring mammals and birds but Dorincard also has other creations
    and interests he likes to share.
    His enthusiasm for Maximum cards (a postcard and a similar themed stamps sent through the
    postal system) shines through.
    He shows how he gets the right card, stamp and postmark together.
    Visiting his site you will also learn things about the natural world told with a dry sense of humour,
    possibly with a play on words, and a unique style of headings.
    Topical and informative both for the enthusiast and casual visitor.
