OMG ..it's that "time" of the year .. no no not for filing your Form 16’s,duh!, its 2 years since I started blogging …wow.. 2 years.. sigh*. In this duration I have been fortunate to have met so many wonderful people and I have been successful in making quite a few close friends too. (wink wink ). Updating my blog with “loos” posts, making innumerable typo’s and reading your comments has been such a pleasing journey. Of course a few of you know that my greatest fear in life is “being predictable“ and I have sincerely made an effort to be spontaneous and “loos”. The past two years have been splendid but the icing on the cake has to be a few emails from people who had accidentally bumped into my blog and went on to become regular readers. Thank you. I would genuinely like to apologize to all the people whom I have made fun of in my previous posts (Dee, Sajjan, my sister..hehe…) and I solemnly promise to continue the trend. Call me a meanie but please don’t forget to pass the brownie. In my very first post I had promised the reader” Watch out for some amazingly funny articles,wacky 1 liners and cool pics.” And I think I have kept my word. ;-) Thank you for spending your valuable time on my blog. Now we celebrate….pluuuck *opens the vodka ….gulp gulp..aaaaaah.. Could you please pass the mango pickles.

Here's a quick tooty pooty review of another loos hilarious film : Golmaal -Unlimited.

Last friday ,my cousin and bil ,invited me to a night show(9.30pm).I was surprised when people started coming in groups,fat aunties,uncles and lil kids....wow ...... it was full... night show full? Yep. The film was hilarious and we had a rocking time. Sharman Joshi was too good (watch out for this dude in the forthcoming movies). Some dialogues were so .. silly yet puny: "Tum wapas India kaise aa gaye? "Woh maine Swades dekhi thi “. Paresh Rawal and Mukherjee's takeoff on Dilip Kumar and Vyajanthimala from "Madhumati" is a master-stroke, “ tum kya kaar rahi ho ? “she was making dung roti’s .. uhahahaaaaaa…… Warsi’s dialogue.."Kyun Baar Baar Flop Actor Bolta Hai...Ab Toh Mai Hit Hu"....hehe it was so touchy considering his acting in Munna Bhai and Seher. Ajay Devgan and Arshad Warsi doing a take-off on BLACK was eeeew cool. I was busy munching on plum cakes ;) , my cousin kept pointing out that Ajay Devgan looked so frail … well I didn’t notice Ajay .. I was busy with Remi Sen .. I mean watching her on the screen. (wink) OMG I almost forgot ,Tussssshar Kapoor was astounding in this film. His dialogues wah wah .. and sense of timing ..Superb.. Did I mention that he plays a dumb dude? This is one scene you guys must not miss in Superman Returns. The heroine and her 3 year old son are captive on a boat and this goonda is guarding them. She says to the kid ”go play the piano”, the kid walks to the piano and starts “ ting ting tong , ting ting tong.” The Goonda looks at her and walks slowly over to the piano. The heroine gasps . The goonda sits next to the boy starts playing the piano TING TING TONG , TING TING TONG. The heroine (whats her name Kate Bosworth ?) faxes a “ Help me” note to her office but the goonda pulls the plug of the fax machine and starts giving Kate a few pattars . Pattar Pattar the kid is terrified. He looks on as the Goonda lifts something (a lamp?? A Chair ? new 1kg surf excel ?) and is about to smash it … when …trrrrrrrrrrrrrraaaaaaaaaang the piano suddenly slams into him.In the next scene the little kid’s hands are frozen in mid air and he is breathing heavily. The $^^**T kid threw the piano (sweet). Psst he’s superman’s son, the super kid.

Sometimes even music cannot substitute for tears. Paul Simon, -Reader's Digest{June, 1997}

Yippeeee its nice to be back ….sigh* (Vc shows a couple of Greg Chappel’s fingers at the ISP who blocked Blogger.) Read this in Reader’s Digest : There are two ways of spreading light: to be the candle or the mirror that reflects it. ( wah wah) or you could switch on the Sodium Vapour lamp. Did anyone read this editorial in today’s TOI ? It’s so funny: DEVIL’S ADVOCATE It’s a Steal By MUKUL SHARMA WAL-MART Stores, the largest retail chain in the world, is secretly going to allow people to steal from its outlets. According to internal memos leaked to the media, the company, which is already the leading destination for shoplifters, will no longer prosecute first-time thieves unless they are between 18 and 65 and steal merchandise worth at least $25. Apparently this will enable it to focus on theft by professional shoplifters and its own employees, who together steal the bulk of merchandise from its stores every year, rather than the casual executive crooks who only swipe a pair of occasional socks. Actually there’s a solid reason for this: It’s just not financially justifiable to expend more than twice the amount in order to prosecute someone who’s stolen something worth $5. The legal costs required are simply too high. Or as a person in charge of asset protection at Wal-Mart put it: “If I have somebody being paid $12 an hour processing a $5 theft, I have just lost money. I have also lost the time to catch somebody stealing $100 or an organised group stealing $3,000”. Unorganised kleptos and hobby shoplifters will immediately realise what a bonanza awaits under-aged and senior citizens of India should Wal-Mart be allowed FDI in retail for which it’s been trying so hard. For one thing $25 translates to over 1,100 bucks here. Which means if an average family has two live-in minors and two grandparents they should easily be expected to bring home nearly 5,000 bucks of stolen goods every month. And that’s not all. With home-grown corporate giants also planning to get into the retail act now, can we not expect some competition? Will Reliance up the ante to, say, 10,000 rupees worth of goods that they will allow us to steal to pip Wal-Mart? Will others narrow the age limit instead to prosecute only thieves between 35 and 36? The National Retail Federation of the United States says American retailers lose more than $30 billion a year to theft. Can we, a burgeoning economic power and a future player on the world stage, not match this paltry figure and perhaps better it? +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Currently trying to solve this puzzle : Its simple areh baba the 9 dot puzzle http://www.dcu.ie/ctyi/puzzles/general/9dotpuz.htm yeah but then Leslie came back with this reply : I am taking a math class that the professor said there are 17 solutions to this puzzle using just 1 line to connect them all. He gave us the following:lay the paper on the ground and walk around the earth 2 times. All dots connected with 1 line. He also gave us use a really fat marker and make 1 like that covers all the dots. He said from these 2 there are 15 more :-( I figured that you can use a cylinder, and a cone which are different than the sphere of the world. Does this give you anymore ideas?? Any help would be appreciated!! Yep I am thinking about the other 15 solutions: Remember its 1 line …..

chupaana bhii nahii.n aata jataana bhii nahii.n aata hame.n tum se muhabbat bataana bhii nahii.n aata Anyone remember this classic? Its from Baazigar , sung by Vinod Rathod , pssst Anu Malik makes a special appearance . And what about this song dekhnevaalo.n ne kya kya nahii.n dekha hoga mera daava hai ki tujhsa nahii.n dekha hoga jis tarah mai.n ne terii raah takii hai barso.n yuu.n kisii ne tera raasta nahii.n dekha hoga The 1990’s were indeed the decade of unforgettable romantic songs.haiiiiiii . I was watching TVS Sa re ga ma pa kids special (Zee TV) and this 13 year old girl sang the song “solah baras ki baali umar ko salaam main pyaar teri pehli nazar ko salaam ...” oh man that was just fantastic.Bappi who was one of the judges asked her if she could drop by his studio the next day and record a song for him, such was her voice .

Girl : Look into my eyes

Eeeks.. I told him not to whistle at the cow..but no..thu thu

You too ? :)

During a visit to the mental asylum, a visitor asked the Director what the criterion was which defined whether or not a patient should be institutionalized. "Well," said the Director, "we fill up a bathtub, then we offer a teaspoon, a teacup and a bucket to the patient and ask him or her to empty the bathtub." "Oh, I understand," said the visitor. "A normal person would use the bucket because it's bigger than the spoon or the teacup. "No." said the Director, "A normal person would pull the plug. Do you want a bed near the window?"

Times change. People change. Too much change for me. I suppose I am growing old." ~Gill 45, Caemlyn, 528 Dragon Reborn

After reading book 2 “ The Great Hunt” , I could't control my curiosity and I bought book 3 “ The Dragon Reborn” the very next day and for once I was not disappointed.This book was like flying a kite ...a steady cool breeze, cloudless sky, the Vividh Bharati in the background playing “ Fauji bhaiyo ki Farmaish” and suddenly the wind picks up and you are struggling to control the kite and invariably cut your fingers. I think I forgot to mention that you are on the terrace, standing on the edge ;) and after a few minutes of struggling its all serene and quiet as if nothing had happened. In this book the main characters truly come into their own, settling into and accepting their roles and fates in the world. For a book named the Dragon Reborn, the Dragon Reborn i.,e Rand, plays a decidedly small part in it. Most of the action is focused on Mat, Perrin, and the three Aes Sedai in training. I really want to thank Robert Jordan for not describing what was going on in Rand's head while he's going mad. Believe me I know how it feels ( uhahahaaaaaaaha ). Some of the action scenes are truly awesome like Perrin (who can talk to wolves) fighting Trollocs (read an excerpt here) truly sent a chill down my spine. I didn’t give much notice to Mat but gosh he is funny and we learn that he has been cursed to be lucky. There is this instance when Mat is climbing rooftops in the night, thinking he’s the only person on the rooftop when suddenly the Aiel*( warriors) stand up next to him and he’s surrounded by 4 of them. He never noticed them and is taken by surprise and is talking to them when another dude (the thief catcher) comes out from the dark. Mat is swearing when he sees so many people on the rooftop when boom more Aiel stand up behind theThief Catcher. uahhaahaha that was so funny.(read the excerpt here). I always felt that a book should have a pinch of humor and sarcasm and this book has the right amount . Mr Robert for the love of “Microphones” please don’t let Nynaeve tug her braid so many times, it might just come off.I think my favorite characters are Moiraine and Lan. Of course if you haven’t read any of the books in this series, you would be wondering what the hell I’m rambling about, right? I am recommending this series to my sister, it seems she’s currently reading some stuff about genetic cloning and listen to this they are successful in creating Angels..uhahahahaha..duh!! Any fool knows men and women think differently at times, but the biggest difference is this. Men forget, but never forgive; women forgive, but never forget."

Nothing ever goes as you expect. Expect nothing, and you will not be surprised. Expect nothing. Hope for nothing. Nothing!!

Twing Twing krrrrrrrr sssssssss peek pooooo sssssss ‘.. hahaa and Ajith who would you like to dedicate this song to’, “ I would like to dedicate this song to Rakshitha ( my sweetheart) and to you my favourite RJ”. The song turned out to be “ Gasolina” ~ Daddy Yankee.Who in his right mind would dedicate such a *u*** song to his sweetheart ? I couldn’t comprehend a word of what the band was singing *screaming, it goes something like this zumbale mambo pa' que mi gata prenda los motores Que se preparen que lo que viene es pa que le den, Duro! Of course it’s in Spanish, but I love it. ;) I never could understand the excitement or the hype surrounding dedications, especially on the Radio. I bet almost all of the time the person to whom the song is dedicated to would not be tuned in and moreover who cares ? All we want is some pleasant music to soothe our ears not some XYZ blabbering that he wants to dedicate the next song to L, M, N, O, Q and oh I forgot Pee. Oh yes I could always listen to my favorite songs on the Ipod or the mp3 player but I would rather tune into the radio because of the Q factor .The feeling that something different, something unexpected might happen. Like the one time I heard a caller screaming obscenities at Dr Love , poor thing she didn’t know which was the “cut the caller” button and she pressed the “applause” button instead. So when he was screaming “ Your Radio station *beep *beep and bigger *beep* we could hear people applauding in the background ….hehe that was funny and what about the time a loos caller wanted the RJ to talk to his dog Rocky , yeah , I know that is not so weird, the weird part was when the dog started barking in the background and to me it seemed to say" I wanna be on air , I wanna be on air". Would you get that on your iPod? Would you ?

We were so loos then ..:)

MG Road....on a sunday ..yappa its so crowded and ewww..

A local Saree shop on Mg Road

"Take the trail! We hunt!"

Actually I wanted the title to be “ Clean your Room”. I had this overwhelming urge to clean my room at 2 am. No not because I was unable to sleep but the second part of the Wheel of Time series, "The Great hunt” had me mystified. I wanted to re read the first book “ Eye of the World” desperately and was unable to find it. Lets move on .. if the first book “ The Eye of the World” was all about getting us into the story, the second book “ The Great Hunt” carries it through, so many twists and turns, and so well written that you do not wish to put it down. If in the first book I was a bit frightened by the Aes Sedai in this book I was sort of inclined to believe that they could actually be on the side of the Dragon.Lets see how it goes. Some parts of the book reminded me of Enid Blyton’s ~Mallory Towers, don’t ask me why and most of the dialogues with the Aes Sedai where similar to Yoda’s 1 liners. These books need a lot of a patience, an eye for detail for some of the more complex story twists and a good memory. I truly liked the prophecies like this one : "Twice and twice shall he be marked, twice to live and twice to die. Once the heron to set his path. Twice the heron to name him true. Once the dragon, for remembrance lost. Twice the dragon, for the price he must pay." "The Wheel of Time weaves us all into the pattern as it wills, but sometimes it provides us with what we need before we know we need it." I was so hooked reading part 2 of the 12 part series that I bought book 3 “ The Dragon Reborn “. It’s much better this way,than cleaning my room :)

Put on your Monkey Caps

I wanted to write a small story with ofcourse a twist..but it turned out even better :) ..... I sent out a draft to Kk and here's what happened .. First read the original transcript.. Monica wanted to do something different that day, so she got up early, for some 2.30am is early.It was the last day of her week long vacation and she was indeed very bored. She put on her fav blue track suit , pulled on her monkey cap and decided to go for a morning jog. As she was running around the Jubilee park she was chased by the ever vigilent street dogs and this was quite amusing to a girl who was never chased by anyone or for that matter anything. She picked up a litre of milk for her cat “lucky” and made her way back to her apartment. After a few hours of watching the Animal Planet and finishing that day’s samurai sudoko, her eyes chanced upon the colorful horoscope section. She read what was in store for people born under the sun sign Virgo. You have been stressed by the push-pull of responsibility these past weeks and you might be feeling bored. Now, you begin to see solutions to your dilemma as a fresh philosophical outlook on life can guide you into new realms of thinking. Stay indoors and try not to travel, for today is the day of accidents. Keep a steady course and don't let confusing signals stir up doubt. “Good Grief” exclaimed Monica , “I wonder how they knew I was bored”. She chuckled as she re read the line “Stay indoors and try not to travel, for today is the day of accidents”. So kk what do you think I have in store for sweet and s##** Monica ? So here's her reply :) Monica wanted to do something different that day, so she got up early, for some 2.30 am is early. kk>>2.30 is early for everyone!! Vc>> Do you have any friends working in the BPO industry ? or just simply putting in late hours ? kk>>No I don't. In any case it is an unearthly hour for most people. Vc>> Duh! girl its feeding time for Vampire bats and goobe’s like me .slurrrp warm blood….unearthly hour double duh!! It was the last day of her week long vacation and she was indeed very bored. She put on her favorite blue track suit , pulled on her monkey cap and decided to go for a morning jog. kk>>Monkey cap for a girl...get outta here. Vc>> Girls can play football, watch football,date monkeys but cant wear a monkey cap !!Give me a break. kk>>Stoopid logic Vc>> Atleast it's Logic and hello! I have seen someone wear a monkey cap..Revathi aunty in some tamil film. Running around the Jubilee park ,chased by the street dogs was quite amusing to a girl who was never chased by anyone or for that matter anything. kk>>Hahahaha...that is a Vc trademark joke :) Vc>> thank you ;) She picked up a packet of milk for her cat “lucky” and made her way back to her apartment. After a few hours of watching the Animal Planet and finishing that day’s samurai sudoko, her eyes chanced upon the colorful horoscope section. She read what was in store for people born under the sun sign Virgo, which also happened to be her sun sign. kk>>would she read the horoscope for Virgo if she is a Scorpio??? Vc>>> If you were in love the first thing you would do is look at your dov’s sun sign.. did you know that …so as I was saying… kk>>Oh well what's the point if mr./ms dov doesn't know about his/her own future? I mean big use....Oh well.... taken... Vc>> Yipeee I won a point ( does a jig...tannkanannkananannaa ) You have been stressed by the push-pull of responsibility these past weeks and you might be feeling bored. Now, you begin to see solutions to your dilemma as a fresh philosophical outlook on life can guide you into new realms of thinking. Stay indoors and try not to travel, for today is the day of accidents. Keep a steady course and don't let confusing signals stir up doubt. kk>>Push pull responsibility?? Is that a type of amplifier or responsibility? Vc>> I always hated those power amplifiers Class A , Class B ..,.eeks “Good Grief” exclaimed Monica , “I wonder how they knew I was bored”. She chuckled as she re read the line “Stay indoors and try not to travel, for today is the day of accidents”. Now what do you think I have in store for sweet and s##** Monica ? kk>>An alien attack on her home? Has to be something really loos Vc>>> naah reality reality ...keep it real as my good friend Kirthi used to say ..keep it real… kk>>Oh really?? Vc>> ;) No one has yet figured out what I'll do with Monica..uahhahhahahaha aahaha ajjaa ajjaa... Have you ??

The old,the new and the jumping heroes...

My Fair Lady : An old movie but just amazing .Watch the movie for Audrey Hepburn and this dialogue delivered by the Professor : Professor Henry Higgins: [singing] Women are irrational, that's all there is to that! Their heads are full of cotton, hay, and rags. They're nothing but exasperating, irritating, vacillating, calculating, agitating, maddening and infuriating hags! Clap Clap !! Bravo …. Wink wink Mi3: I found Ethan Hunt too emotional in this film.Sigh The special effects and the latest gadgets will keep you on the edge of your seats. Don’t miss the action on the bridge .Awesome. Oh I almost forgot...check out the running scene and the camera that follows him .....uff...WICKED. Krrish : The songs are good and I think I have repeated this a zillion times, Hrithik is at his best when he’s not delivering dialogues. All he has to do is stand in a corner looking at the cracks in the wall and the audience will love him but NO he’s got to dance and sing and yeah! jump over buildings. sigh*...our very own desi Spiderman and Superman !!The film is okitoki..but it has those “special scenes”, when Hrithik is trying to woo Priyanka , its then that you (audience) can go out get some popcorn and diet coke , cross my heart,you will not regret it. The special effects are commendable but when compared to MI3 ..lets not go there…I liked the song : main hoon woh aasman aur tum ho yeh zameen ho kar bhi hum juda hote juda nahi ~~ wah wah Kids and aunties will love it . I’ve kept the best for the last. Crash : I would like to thank Myths for insisting that I watch this movie.Vc bows, thank you. Crash is one cool and amazing movie, you have to watch it to enjoy it. I hope and pray that we get to see the Indian version soon. Of course someone might already be implementing it … FYI Crash is the Winner of 3 Oscars at the 2006 Academy Awards: · Best Picture · Film Editing · Writing (Original Screenplay) and Sandra is :) And the tag line : It's the sense of touch. In any real city, you walk, you know? You brush past people, people bump into you. In L.A., nobody touches you. We're always behind this metal and glass. I think we miss that touch so much, that we crash into each other, just so we can feel something.

Another of those hectic weekends.. the sheer number of movies i watched is mindboggling..Mi3, Phir Hera Peri, Are we there Yet, My Fair Lady,Crash,Krissh.... gosh !!

Check it out !!

My sis showed me a pic of my nephew Sid ( 2 months old) and I was mesmerized. The lil kid was wearing a checks shirt !! For the love of Pokemon checks!! She and my bil went on the defence..”Its designer checks and it’s the latest style” yeah right for professionals not toddlers……duh !! I bet 10 years down the line the kid would be browsing through the pics and chance upon this particular “checky” pic , raise his eyebrows and ask his mom “ Mommy !! please tell me this isn’t me “. Amoeba and Aphrodite! kids should be wearing this or this or definitely this .. I’ll send one designer Hanuman t shirt :)

And Camping we will go ....

How many of you are paid to write a post ?? None ? (Vc counts the notes …….) You guys know Dee ? areh my friend Venki’s sister, Muddy’s friend, Dee…yeah Mrs Dee.. Well she took 2 weeks off in April and went on a 10 day trek to the Himalayas courtesy http://www.yhaindia.org/ In her own words : “We really had a great time..Met a whole lot of people..and had loads of fun...It wasnt a very hard trek..in fact this particular route is one of the easiest.. Around 65 kms in 7 days..We started the trek from near Kulu at around 5000 ft..Went all the way up to Saurkundi Pass at 13,500 ft..then descended back.. “ I know for a fact that there were no palanquin bearers.“This was truly a 5 star trek..They really feed us well :) We had really good company.. “ It seems when they camped at night, the local people would pitch small makeshift shops and woo the campers with a variety of tantalizing local dishes. Psst she was hoping she would loose weight alas it was the other way.(wink wink) “We would start everyday at 9..after good breakfast..trek for an hr or two and break..then trek till lunch time..have the packed lunch..relax for an hr..and start..again.. We would reach the higher camp around 4..they would give us a refreshing welcome drink..then tea and pakodas :) Then a yummy 4 course dinner at 7:30..after which we wd have a camp fire.” See its all eat,drink and make merry. “People would do just abt anything to entertain themselves..sing dance.. shaayarii vagera vagera..The nights were fun.. Struggling inside our sleeping bags in the packed tents :) “ Yeah I’ll tell you why ..because 20 ladies were bundled into a single TENT and it seems she had to snuggle up with that BMW chick.( wink wink). Her words “huddling close with the bmw girl for warmth “ But I was more interested in the “ would do just about anything to entertain themselves” anything ??? cough cough…. Of course the trek also had white water rafting ( 2 members had a close call with nature and please don’t read it as nature’s call), rock climbing , singing duets ,drinking the local arrack and meeting a whole lot of friendly people. The beautiful temples and natural hot springs on the way are simple indescribable. And in this place called Manikaran ,ppl put rice in pots and put it in the hot springs aitha after 20 mins it gets cooked. I must admit the pics that she shared were awesome and they did remind me of the film Roja. The cost of the TREK =Rs 1,900 ( One thousand Nine hundred only) .Ofcourse the AC Train ,the return flight back home ( transportation), the local noodles,egg burjji, arrack has not been included.

Gosh!!

I was talking to Kk about assuming stuff and I couldn’t find a suitable word to express what I was trying to say. I knew I had read that word in Dan Brown's “The Da Vinci Code” and so I searched for the book, online . After rattling the google for a few seconds I found the book here . The next step was to recall in which “Scene/Chapter" the word was used......I knew it was when Teabing, Lagdon and Sophie are discussing about the Holy Grail. Scroll scroll read read ........BINGO Sophie could not take her eyes from the woman beside Christ. The Last Supper is supposed to be thirteen men. Who is this woman? Although Sophie had seen this classic image many times, she had not once noticed this glaring discrepancy. “Everyone misses it,” Teabing said. “Our preconceived notions of this scene are so powerful that our mind blocks out the incongruity and overrides our eyes.” “It’s known as skitoma,” Langdon added. “The brain does it sometimes with powerful symbols.” Skitoma and preconceived notions ........but skitoma was a typo and is in fact scotoma. So what am I proving here ........ all I am saying is that Bandidas is one cool chik flick :) HELLO!! it has Penelope Cruz( check out her nose) and Salma Hayek (cough cough).

Potty ...i mean pots...

Uhahahhaaaaaaaaaaa

Calvin: How come old photographs are always black and white? Didn't they have color film back then? Dad: Sure they did. In fact, those old photographs are in color. It's just that the world was black and white then. The world didn't turn color until sometime in the 1930s, and it was pretty grainy color for a while, too. :)

You just can't have a better background than the clouds..uffffff

Friends vs Will and Grace

I was browsing through ( cough cough) and happened to read these hilarious liners from Friends and Will and Grace and was ROTFOL. Phoebe: I got a call at two in the morning, but all I could hear was, like, this high squeaky sound, so I thought, okay it's, like, a mouse or a possum. But then I realized, like, okay, where would a mouse or a possum get the money to make the phone call? Chandler: All right, look, I just think it's time for you to settle down, ya know. Make a choice. Pick a lane. Joey:Who's Elaine? Ross: What if there is only one woman for everybody? You know. What if I get one woman and that's it? Unfortunately in my case there was one woman... for her. Joey: Ross, relax that's like saying there's only one flavour of ice-cream for you. Let me tell you something Ross, there's lots of flavours out there. There's rocky road, cookie dough and bing! Cherry vanilla. You can get them with jimmies or nuts, or whipped cream. Welcome back to the world, grab a spoon! Ross: I honestly don't know wether I'm hungry or horny. Chandler: You stay out of my freezer.” [Grace trying to start up her Uncle Jerry's old car] Grace: 'OK, here we go.. that's weird. Will, what do you think is wrong?' Karen: 'Oh my God. She just asked a fairy an engine question. We're all gonna die in this car' Will: 'Karen, you're not going to die. It would take a silver bullet and a wooden stake to do that.'

You know, like Goldmen, Silvermen. Chandler: Because, it... it's not his last name. Phoebe: It isn't? Chandler: No. It's not like Phil Spidermen. He's a spider *man*. You know, like Goldmen is a last name but there's no gold man. Phoebe: Oh, oh okay... Phoebe: There should *be* a gold man! Who is better Joey ( How u doing ? ) or Karen ( Honey !)

A note to Mr. Priyadarshan, director of the film Chup Chup ke. Sir , I have seen almost all of your films including Hulchul , Maala Maal weekly and the recently released Chup Chup ke. A few questions on Chup Chup ke.. 1.Did the cast in the above mentioned movies sign a bond that they would act in all your films? (You see for the first 30 minutes I thought I was watching Maala Maal weekly but infact it was Chup Chup ke ...scared the hell-of-out me). 2.Why do you really like WHITE, is it because of the color or because it’s plain cheap?(All the men were in white, thank God the ladies were not clad in white). 3.The first song sequence was in the second half of the film.Why ? (No Naach Gaana ?? Hindi film and no songs..eeeew ) 4.Shahid Kapur’s liner ‘mujhe dhokebaaz mat kaho’ was amazing.( cough cough I don’t think he said anything else ..did he ?) . 5.Hats off for giving Rajpal Yadav an amazing role. (I remember his energy and sense of timing…….clap clap..superb. Watch this film for “ Rajpal Yadav “ I will be surprised if he doesn’t get nominated for “Best performance in a comic role” ). 6.I have never seen any of Neha Dhupia’s previous films, but in this movie she was WOW. ( We were looking more at Neha than at Kareena,wink wink) 7.Was Shushma Reddy really required ? (She was one of Channel V’s VJ’s a long long time ago.) 8.I loved the character that Kareena Kapoor played in this film. No words can describe that performance. ( She plays the role of a dumb girl, cheeky smile) The film is funny in parts and the people sitting behind us were having a blast and it was sort of infectious. Watch it with friends (who can laugh out loud). ______________________________________________ I have read a few Legal Thrillers including Perry Mason and a lot of other guys who have not been able to make an impact on me. The Client (the hero is an 11 year old boy!!) and the Runaway Jury are wonderful and David Baldacci is another favorite. But they lacked that …sting. Then I chanced upon Proof of Intent - William J. Coughlin. It is one of the most thrilling and funny books I have read this year. It’s in first-person narration (my favorite) and the characters are depicted wonderfully. The plot is simple but the last chapter is downright fantastic. Pick it up today……

A cinema, a book,a dvd,shopping and death by chocolate...yep my typical weekend :)

Pattar pattar

I snapped this when I was shopping at Mamulpet. That lil girl gave that spectacled dude one tight pattar and he started crying.. oh it was so funny when the girls tried to pacify him :)

I know :)

Making people laugh is one of the hardest things you can do, especially when you consider that everyone has very different ideas about what is, and isn't funny.

Yawn: An honest opinion openly expressed.

Call me a chauvinistic owl but I admit that I hate to lose to someone with the xx chromosome. I remember this one incident , the year being 2003, when I was sort of…sigh* ok ok I was beaten in a game of chess by a lil girl named Anna. There ..sigh* now I feel better. ;) It was one of those boring days, when (ping) I get a “challenge” message from a lil 17 year old girl. I smile, this is going to be like eating roasted peanuts.yummy. 31 moves and 3 minutes later, Checkmate, game over.Anna sends a smile. I was too stunned to react. That lil girl beat me !! I gather my wits and challenge her, I pray that she will accept it. She does. The second game is attention-grabbing and we play it safe. The game is interrupted by a colleague wondering if I was interested in a cup coffee.I glare at him, he backs off.I lose a rook. I swear aloud and startle my manager. I win that game. I chat with Anna, she’s a Russian and her grandfather was a former Grand Master. Score 1-1. I challenge her to a last game, the decider. She agrees. That last game was the best game I ever played. When I uttered the magic words Checkmate, the board was empty but for her king and a rook, my King, a strategically placed soldier and a very tired looking knight. I was elated .She smiled and vanished from my screen, never to be seen again.*sigh +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
