Be Still

"Be still. The trees ahead and bush beside you are not lost." - Albert Einstein

movies movies...

4 of them. Yup. Past week has been a bit of a movie watching week. And none of them were your standard run of the mill movies. Probably Love Actually comes close to being that. The movie has about 17 love stories (not really) embedded in it and by the end of it you feel that love actually has too much love actually. I liked the story where this chap loves his best friend's wife. Hugh Grant as the arse kicking British PM is pretty likeable and Liam Neeson is good as the father of a 10 year old in love with his school's hottest babe. The story of the unspoken love between the writer ( Colin Firth) and his portugese house keeping lady is sissy.
Im not even going to talk about the rest of the movie.
Now that i've vented out my feelings on Love actually the other moveis i saw were Princess Mononoke, Birth and Duel. All pretty good. Go watch them blah blah blah.

Am going to watch Rang De Basanti tonight. dinga dinga dinga dinga dinga dinga dinga...
Have not gone for a movie in the 1st week of its release in a long time. Signs of growing old i guess( and of growing wisdom).

Jet - hara

So... Jet Airways takes over Air Sahara.
Big Deal!
Bet it was but how does it affect the common man? or more importantly the common cricket lover?
Read in rediff that "The Air Sahara brand is likely to be scrubbed, sources said adding some adjustments are understood to have been made regarding Air Sahara's liabilities like the sponsorship of the Indian Cricket team."
Im guessing it means that the cricket team now gets to have Jet - hara on their chest, leading forearm and leading biceps. The trailing ones will still have Nike on it. I'm actually considering bidding for their trailing triceps and helmet grill. Improve brand Krishnan before I become emperor of Hindustan ( not a religious comment ).
I hope for God's sake that the Indian team one day outfits improve. Even Bangladesh has better pajamas than us.

MI - 2

Recently the Honorable Government of India has indicated to me that they are interested in availing of my services. Not yet sure in what capacity but hey! its the thought that counts.
The amount of time it takes for the Honorable Government of India to reach a decision whether they want me or not is time enough for me to get married, settle down in a nice little job, buy a car, a piece of land, a fridge,TV, pots n pans and 120 issues of India Today. Ive even forgotten why I wanted to work for them in the first place.
Anyways , its a kind of a landmark for me as I go about ruthlessly achieving all I wanted to in life.
HUWAHAHAHAHAH!!!!
Forward March!

Kiss the BCCI

Have you noticed that Indian cricketers after getting a century kiss their helmet or the left side of their shirt? Thats the BCCI emblem you're kissing gentlemen.Just thought id mention it. (think Sharad Pawar, J. Dalmiya)
