........damm; I could not update for a couple of days despite having lots of things to say. That I belive is one of the most frustrating things.

Did anyone catch the MTV Video Music Awards (VMA) two days ago?
DID YOU ALL SEE BRITNEY OPEN MOUTH KISS MADONNA and then MADONNA KISS CRISTINA AUGUILIRA.

I bet every guy on the planet who saw that must have had the same expression I did. I doubt anything can ever recreate that expression.

Anyway on other notes, I finally started my new job at the dorm food court downstairs.

Had fun . Made $102.50 in 3 days. Today is the third day.
They made me scrub the entire main kitchen. And lets not forget all the dishes.....but it was good training.

Post more soon. My fingers hurt like crazy. I have cleaned more stuff in the last two days than I have in my lifetime.

Well Well, I felt it was my moral duty as a seeker of information and wisdom over the internet to post a link so that people who did not see mars could view some pretty pictures.

So here is the link....(Finally. Sorry to make you wait dad.)

P.S Today was the first day I wore my new lenses...Woo-Hoo. 3 cheers to corrective vision

Wednesday 27 August, 2003

Man.....last night saw mars...Could not see it as well as it was hyped though.

Must be all the bright lights around my dorm building.

Well, hubblesite.com is posting pictures of mars, so you can catch 'them'

After the bomb blasts I felt it was necessary to post something worthwhile...now that I re-read the post I made earlier this morning, I feel that my post was out of anger and not rational.

So here is my new blog....

Lyrics of a song by Black Eyed Peas...called Where is the love

...Note only certain sections have been posted:::

What's wrong with the world, mama
People livin' like they ain't got no mamas
I think the whole world addicted to the drama
Only attracted to things that'll bring you trauma

But if you only have love for your own race
Then you only leave space to discriminate
And to discriminate only generates hate
And when you hate then you're bound to get irate

People killin', people dyin'
Children hurt and you hear them cryin'
Can you practice what you preach
And would you turn the other cheek

Father, Father, Father help us
Send us some guidance from above
'Cause people got me, got me questionin'
Where is the love (Love)

It just ain't the same, always unchanged
New days are strange, is the world insane
If love and peace is so strong
Why are there pieces of love that don't belong
Nations droppin' bombs
Chemical gasses fillin' lungs of little ones
With the ongoin' sufferin' as the youth die young
So ask yourself is the lovin' really gone
So I could ask myself really what is goin' wrong
In this world that we livin' in people keep on givin' in

Makin' wrong decisions, only visions of them dividends
Not respectin' each other, deny thy brother
A war is goin' on but the reason's undercover
The truth is kept secret, it's swept under the rug
If you never know truth then you never know love
Where's the love, y'all, come on (I don't know)
Where's the truth, y'all, come on (I don't know)
Where's the love, y'all

People killin', people dyin'
Children hurt and you hear them cryin'
Can you practice what you preach
And would you turn the other cheek

Father, Father, Father help us
Send us some guidance from above
'Cause people got me, got me questionin'
Where is the love (Love)

Where is the love (The love)
Where is the love (The love)
Where is the love
The love, the love

I feel the weight of the world on my shoulder
As I'm gettin' older, y'all, people gets colder
Most of us only care about money makin'
Selfishness got us followin' our own direction
Wrong information always shown by the media
Negative images is the main criteria
Infecting the young minds faster than bacteria
Kids act like what they see in the cinema
Yo', whatever happened to the values of humanity
Whatever happened to the fairness in equality
Instead in spreading love we spreading animosity
Lack of understanding, leading lives away from unity
That's the reason why sometimes I'm feelin' under
That's the reason why sometimes I'm feelin' down
There's no wonder why sometimes I'm feelin' under
Gotta keep my faith alive to lovers bound

People killin', people dyin'
Children hurt and you hear them cryin'
Can you practice what you preach
And would you turn the other cheek

Father, Father, Father help us
Send us some guidance from above
'Cause people got me, got me questionin'
Where is the love (Love)

Where is the love (The love)
Where is the love (The love)
Where is the love (The love)

Where is the love (The love)
Where is the love (The love)
Where is the love (The love)

Where is the love (The love)
Where is the love (The love)
Where is the love
The love, the love


Peace.

Damm you terrorists...
Another bomb blasts in BOMBay.........or Mumbai...sounds better.
I hope the people responsible are caught and then I would pay to see each one of them tortured and killed.

The attacks are a repeat of 10 years ago...just hope riots do NOT follow the pattern as well....

I apologise to any sardarji's in advance
Read at your own risk....

You can be sure the person is Sardar when he:

Puts lipstick on the forehead because he wants to makeup his mind.

Gets stabbed in a shoot out.

Thinks socialism means partying

Trips over a cordless phone.

Takes a ruler to bed to see how long he slept.

Studies for a blood test and fails.

Misses the 44 bus, and takes the 22 twice instead.

Gets locked in Furniture Shop and sleeps on the floor.

What do you call 10 Sardars standing ear to ear? A wind tunnel.

What do you see when you look into a Sardar's eyes? The back of his
head.

What do you call a sardar who drinks only beer?Just-beer Singh ('T' silent!)

What do you call a sardar who has only one drink? Just-one Singh.(Again, T silent)

Why does Sardar have "TGIF" written on their shoes? Toes Go In First.

"Oh, look at the dead bird." Sardar looked skyward and said "Where, Where?

What do smart Sardars and UFOs have in common? You always hear about them but you never see them.

Movie Review:
(Hopefully the first of many)

I was thinking hard regarding the movie I should start my reviewing with. So I decided the movie should be the most recent I have seen.

That would be the one i saw last night. All alone in the basement in the dark in an empty house - Final Destination.

This was a surprisingly scary movie. Maybe it was just the ambience, may be not. This movie is a few years old but still managed to scare me shitless....
The story starts with a school trip to Paris. Alex is a guy who gets a premonition and basically sees the plane he is on burting into flames. He then realizes that he was seeing the future, so he screams and in the ensuing madness is kicked out of the plane alongwith some classmates and one teacher.

The plane proves him right by exploding the moment it leaves the runway.
Everyone starts seeing him as a freak, but he comes to realize that death has a design for everyone and all he must do to survive is find the design.

The resuts of his deductions are downright spooky and the saying 'Death will find a way' is right on.

I recommend this movie highly to anyone with an appetite for horror and thrill.
Just remember 'Nothing is certain except Death and Taxes'

I was reading timesofindia.com and was reading about the recent bomb blast in the BEST bus last monday.
I was also reading about the Shiv-Sena & BJP sponsored 'bandh'
Kudos to the VHP and also to some muslim organizations that supported this bandh.

I would hate to see a communal backlash similar to Dec '93.
I have strong feelings about those days but I would like to keep them private.
What I would like to make public is the location of the entire Srikrinshna Comminsion report based on those days when Mumbai burnt.
Please read it and see for yourself, feel for yourself.

http://www.altindia.net/srikrishnareport.htm

I pray to whatever I belive in that such a thing is not repeated.

If you have any comments do mail me.

Jai Hind.
