Drill and Marching Columns

Since the marching contingents have become such a hot topic these days, and in coming days we will see a lot of them in parades, I thought I’ll take a stab at sharing with everyone what exactly goes into making these marching columns and bands.
Drill is actually one of the first things you’re taught when you join the academy. In case of Jawans, in their respective regimental / corps Centers.

A layman, oversimplified version of drill is doing something repetitively, enhancing and honing muscle memory for that and each
action a near perfect copy of previous one. “left, right, left…” You get the drift !

But to achieve this requires thousands and thousands of hours of practice, physical labour, mental attentiveness and tenacity.

It starts with having the right posture. Just standing straight

I started playing #guitar in college. Some of my friends back home played, so I thought I'd learn. It's been years since I kept up with it. With no job and an empty house, I had time. Plus, I could crank up my amp. Ava would have hated it. All the more reason to do it.

Strumming a few chords or playing a riff through a loud amp usually makes me feel better. It's more of a distraction this time. My amp is a little old. Even a #ragpicker might pass on it. "If you're not going to play it, sell it," Ava nagged. Life always got in the way.

Or I got in the way. Not even ten years ago I kept getting sick all the time. Painful stomach cramps would radiate weakness throughout my body. I learned how to wash it away like healing #rainwater. That's when I really started to figure out who I was and what I could do.

Good morning @childrensplace: Respectfully calling on you to design clothes for #boys & #girls that promote excellent #values. The dangerous #dumbingdown of boys! Why promote dark characters that wield #WEAPONS? (#ElPasoshooter) Why promote laziness & unhealthy eating? 1/x
#Boys: Calling on you to stop promoting dark characters that WIELD #WEAPONS. Why promote #gangster #ninjas wearing red bandanas & mouth masks in a country w/ #gangs? What kind of a man will a boy who wears a "Bro by Day Ninja By Night" pajama set (featuring junk food) be? 2/x

It’s #Monday, I’m boozing it up at a 4 seat bar, the #barkeep is a long pourer, and I’m all fucking set if I get something stuck between my teeth.👇🙃 #RandomThoughts #drinking #OutAndAbout
Shooting the shit with a friend, she’s proud to be doing well with her plants - unusual for her.

The key was a #video explaining the benefits of pruning.

She needs REASONS. She got them.

Apparently, pruning in a particular manner stimulates growth hormones.

Of course, this led to me initiating a discussion about the #movie I just watched on Hulu, called “The German Doctor.”

The main character was Josef Mengele. #ThisHappened

People, this is why I’m known in my circles as “The Black Hole Of Conversation.” SMTH

If you look closely,

the loudest people calling for Impeach Now

are by far,

media personalities,

TV hosts,

TV pundits,

Writers/bloggers,

and some blue check marks on Twitter,

Most have one thing in common.

Impeachment hearings give them easy stories to do.

#Lazy
Regular people are doing what they always do,

working, entertaining themselves, trying to have sex, the next drink, a great meal and...

not giving a fuck about the day to day workings of politics.

Political news ain’t real life. @MSNBC @CNN @TYT
The average American represents 160M ppl.

The top cable news broadcasts generate less than 2M viewers per episode.

Hence,

the average person is more likely watching sports, a video game screen, music videos or a Marvel movie.

Those desperate for attention act weird sometimes
