Operation Black Tornado

The Taj ... Before the attack .. legend has it that once JRD Tata wasn't allowed to a 5 Star Hotel in Bombay cause of his race ... nd he came back to build the Taj Hotel in 1903 .. the best in India and amongst the top 5 in the world that time



A heritage site ... and now after the terrorist attack dis is what is being done to the vision of that man some thing that stood out the test of time so much so that when the new Taj was made the old one was kept as it is as a tribute to the vision of a man that in its tim was the symbol of what being an Indian meant







With it finally reopening today ... wat happened at the end of the whole cycle ... lets see Pakistan hasnt done any thing ... Politicians after a week of "solidarity" are back to "wondering" whether the ATS Chief was killed by people who wer involved with the Malegaon blasts (basically minority appeasement) .. the nerve of these people ... also the house of Major Unnikrishnan was compared to a dogs house within a day of his funeral ... people hav organized candle marches to show solidarity against terror (im with you without a candle march - Peace )
Masood Azhar who was placed under house arrest 2 weeks back by the government .. mite suddenly not even be in Pakistan ... And of course a certain Mr Antulay a union cabinet minister has to open his hole and let all of his frustrated minority vote bank politics come out ... Luckily atleast 2 of the best hotels in Bombay are reopenning ... I now feel that atleast the people who werent personally witness to the incident will feel a little peace ...

A little food for thought if the govt doesnt give a f***k about any one who dies in terror attacks .. insults the famil of someone who gave up his life for the country maybe instead of taking out candle marches people should just vote for a different government ...

Wastedness ... I and II

Weneva i have to spend a day i am either actually doin something or just drifting along or as i will explain am in a state of Wastedness

There are two kinds of wasted (as i hav come to realize) one is the gud kind wherein u decide that u dont want to do shit ... and keep on goin till u feel totally gone ... start talkin crap , laughin at stuff da wouldnt remotely be funny normanlly nd da best part is others go along and have fun too ...

I was happy being wasted of the first kind the whole of engg till da end wen i had reached da fag end of ma proj

Den i met Wastedness part II and it came back to haunt me in da past few Weeks

Here u wer doin everythin rite .. u want to do things .. lets say u hav to do things ... stuff starts interrupting the time u wer in wasted (da 1st kind) .. u get irritated ... things seem fcked up ... cause u dont want to be wasted but are cause things are not up to u nd others r too slow or cant do the stuff themselves .. things can get worse ? u soon find out smethin u did right got screwed up cause others didnt realize it was ready or simply shit happend u dont know y ... den just wen u least expect it .. u r out of da vicious wastedness II nd back to not doing things at all when u dont want to do them and doing them weneva u actually do !!!

Heres to Wasteness I

Mc Lovin ...

Superbad was one of the classier movies to release last year. not only was it funny but also wasn't cheap like some of the latter American Pie series. The man who stole the show was Mc Lovin ... The part from where he enters to the fake license rite through the end part where the cops carry hime out frm the part with him showing off his "punk ass" attitude .. just took the movie to another level ...



Look at him go Mc Lovin ..

McLovin quotes

When McLovin makes a fake license id

Evan: You changed your name to McLovin?
Seth: It doesn’t have a first name, it just says McLovin!
Fogell: Well, it was between McLovin or Mohammed.
Seth: Why the f*** would it be between Mohammed or Mclovin?!
Fogell: Mohammed is the most common name in the world, why not read a book ass face
Seth: How many people do you know named Mahhomad?
Fogell: How many people do you know named McLovin?
Seth: Exactly!
Evan: The guys either going think ‘here’s another guy with a fake ID’, or here’s McLovin, 25 year old Hawaiian organ donor.
Fogell: I am McLovin

End of story ... :P

When McLovin is asked about his name by cops


Officer Michaels: McLovin?
Fogell: Yeah.
Officer Michaels: Great name.
Officer Slater: It is, it just rolls of the tongue.
Officer Michaels: ‘Sounds like a sexy hamburger!

About his age ...

"How old are you?"

"old enough?"

"For What?"

"to party"

McLovin the ladies man ...



Story of how he told one of dem ladies the time

"I told her wat time it was cheeka cheeka yea yea"

Officer Michaels: Yeah McLovin, how is it going with the ladies?
Fogell: It’s not the “going” I’m worried about… but the “coming.”

when mclovin walks into the science room;
"gangstas, whats up guys"

This one isnt exactly a quote

Seth: Number 1, you look like a future pedophile on this picture....
Number 2, it doesnt even have a first name, it just says McLovin...

Evan: McLovin? What are you and Irish R'n'B singer?

another un.....
Seth: Why the fuck are you wearin a vest?
Fogell: Im tryna look olderr
Seth: You look like Pinocchio

I guess theres a lil Mc Lovin in all of us ;)





I have to end with another McLovin quote with a link to to get a McLovin id

"Hell ye,show these fukas how we roll"

Mails I got ... that fu*ked my mind .. Part I ... A Cute love story or so he says !!!

Everyone gets a lil mind fu**ed at work. Its ok ... and everyone gets those spam mails about friendship or a true story about "how in the end we realize it is important to express your love" u know wat i mean .. but this maill dat im about to put up is smething else .. it cracked me up at work and ppl wer wondering why ? jus chk it out ill put forth my thoughts after u ppl read this ...

Subject A cute love story


A BOY HAD CANCER AND HE HAD ONE MONTH TO LIVE.

HE LIKED A GIRL WORKING IN A CD SHOP VERY MUCH.

BUT HE DID NOT TOLD HER ABOUT HIS LUV.

EVERYDAY HE WENT TO THE CD SHOP AND BOUGHT A CD ONLY TO TALK TO HER.

AFTER A MONTH HE DIED.















WHEN THE GIRL WENT HIS HOME AND ASKED ABOUT HIM, HIS MOM TOLD THAT HE DIED AND TOOK HER TO HIS ROOM.....................................

SHE SAW ALL THE CD'S UNOPENED ...............

THE GIRL CRIED N CRIED N FINALLY DIED.

YOU KNOW Y SHE CRIED?








ÇOZ SHE HAD KEPT HER OWN LUV LETTERS INSIDE THE CD PACKS.SHE ALSO LUVED HIM.............



moral of the story:

if u love someone......say to him directly don't wait for the destiny to play the role.............otherwise u will lose that person




**************** The end ***********************************

I put the end so you know that the "cute" love story is over ;)

My thoughts

First of all i dont think the "love story" is cute .. if its a love story at all

One upon a time there was this girl worked at a cd shop and and guy fell for her ... dats a beginning of a love story ...
but this starts of with A BOY HAD CANCER AND HE HAD ONE MONTH TO LIVE ? hmmmm ...

Neways we go on ...

EVERYDAY HE WENT TO THE CD SHOP AND BOUGHT A CD ONLY TO TALK TO HER.

AFTER A MONTH HE DIED.

another abrupt deviation from a love story unless it involves rebirth ;)

WHEN THE GIRL WENT HIS HOME AND ASKED ABOUT HIM, HIS MOM TOLD THAT HE DIED AND TOOK HER TO HIS ROOM

ok its a lil weird but ppl do weirder things "in love" ...

Next sentence

SHE SAW ALL THE CD'S UNOPENED ...............

Ok still in the flow ...

THE GIRL CRIED N CRIED N FINALLY DIED.

a poetic gesture of sadness (cried nd cried ... nd finally died ;) )

Nest sentence

YOU KNOW Y SHE CRIED?

Is this author fu*king with our heads ... i know she cried nd cried .. but she also finally died ... still do we wat to know why she cried ...

his hold over the plot is breath taking ... such a deep philosophy ... so very deep ... that i almost drowned in it !!!

Trip down TV memory lane - Part Two

Hmmmm ... lets move on to stuff dat i started watching a year later (in 5th standard ;) ) another show dat changed TV forever ... yup and it was all about saving lives !!!
Nope its not ER !!! yup .. im talking bout Baywatch

Let's start trippin ...



I dont think anyone needs to be told about baywatch ... Its another (referring to part one) one of those shows that changed the world !!!

Would u believe it the show originally launched had low TRP (what was wrong with the world ?) .. and David Hasselhoff (of Kight Rider fame before Baywatch) put in his own money and produced the show again .. and it went on to be the most popular show of all time with over 1.1 billion ppl watching it (Redemption ;) LOL) !!!

The plot again was simple a team of lifeguards and their relationships and dangers related to beach and other activities related to the California beach lifestyle. Everything from earthquakes to shark attacks to serial killers, and even nuclear bombs !!!

Let me tell you before I watched the show I thought the show was all bout the beach ...



And later I found out it was all about the beach !!!



I didnt know that Pamela along with a host of other "lifeguards" was later going to be playmates
Infact i didnt know what "being a playmate" implied ... all i know is that lifeguards soon suddenly had different looks while going in to save ppl in danger

Look 1



Look 2



It was like ppl were waiting for some one to drown .. then suddenly the shreiks of the "drowning ppl" would fade and a soft theme dat kinda grows on u started to play ... the lifeguard would suddenly move the float and it would begin ... something that captivated minds of ppl of all ages for the next 10 years !!!

A tanned hot lifeguard ... with exotic oils all aver her (maybe im getting a lil carried away but who cares ... all of u hav been there and dis is a trip down memory lane LOL ) ... fighting against the waves ... aahh .. the pure beauty of it dis would carry on for bout a min so that the camera man could cover almost a ll angles including underwater shots of the "determined" lifeguard ... May the Lord Bless her Soul ... and den suddenly damn da "drowning ppl" enter the scene .. der goes the back ground score ... wish those ppl had actually drowned and the rest of the show would include another 10 lifeguards searching for them ... But the show must go on so the ppl are save or are injured and have to be taken to the hospital .. if they r lucky and the lifeguard feels that she can "resuscitate" the "victim" den der more hope for ppl as it makes more entertainment ... of course ders the usual ... one hot lifeguard cheating on her "best" frndz guy ... and another one consoling her while the "guy" prepares for making a move on dis third chick in the next show ;)

Who cares it made kick ass entertainment ...

Food for thought - not much changed between the 60's and the 90's either its hot women in another planet or hot women on the beach !!!

Ten yrs of this ...






In them we trusted !!!



Den baywatch went to Hawaii change in locale but not in Concept !!!



Men will be Men ;) !!!

Trip down TV memory lane - Part One

Just looking at da kinda shit dat comes now a days on tv (read my earlier post ;) ) i suddenly thought of da shows dat i was into as a kid ... no im not gonna put a post on shows i saw on cartoon network .. LOL ... dis is before ... when the Indian Govt didnt play "Net Nanny" .. its a pun ... where we could just watch a show .. nd enjoy it

Let da memory ride begin



" Space... the Final Frontier. These are the voyages of the starship Enterprise. Its five-year mission: to explore strange new worlds, to seek out new life and new civilizations, to boldly go where no man has gone before. "

How cool did dat sound !!! Dats just how is sounds ... even though the show lasted only 3 yrs ... and was made in 1966 (i didnt know it then) ... it still was gud TV in da early nineties ;)

Here's a look at the team of the starship enterprise



Now to da ppl who havnt seen da show (if u all exist !!! watch da show !!! ) here da gist of it
Captain Kirk (William Shatner now in Boston Legal) and his merry men who find new planets on every episode ... they teleport themseleves using laser beams (its so kool considering it was da 60's wen it was made though it still has dat wow factor) to those planets ... which invariably house ppl like humans ... and are almost always welcomed by really hot women (either Amazon women or women from the Garden of Eden or sumthing lik dat ) yup ders a plot beyond these factors ... LOL ... der r laser guns .. fights ... aliens sometimes ... no gross makeup (according to these ppl the final frontier has hot women and earth like planets in abundance only a shortage of men ... not bad is it ? ) ... fights and a hurried escape to go back to the Star Ship Enterprise ... really cool space ship ... may be a few injuries to the team but its all cool in the end ...

The comic timing between Captian Kirk and Spock is really something that took this show to the next level ...



For all those non believers ...











And this was the in the 60's ... A tribute to a show that went by its tagline "to boldly go where no man has ever gone before" ..

We are all Stars !!! Celebs and Reality Shows

One of the most irritating things nowadays is the TV coverage so called "celebs" get .. with interviews on channels .. sme even at prime time ... ma favourite part (i know i said irritating one sentence back but wen u r forced to watch so much shit on TV i guess u start enjoying it in a rebel sort of way .. neways back to da post :) ) "aap apne itne sare fans ka kya kehna chahenge ?" ... LOL ... even their faces show the shock at being asked such a wierd question .. for gods sake they just starred on some lame soaps on lamer TV channels and TV channels like aaj tak , zoom etc air this shit cause ... they r the lamest of them all !!!

I admit that i havn't watched a full show of any of the soaps (I swear its true but still watching a few mins of this is enough for me) ppl watch what they like ... but come on ... celebs r celebs ... they r ppl whom the paparzzi writes stuff about ... they try nd get away from the media ... play hard to get ... ppl want to read abt them ... their make ups, break ups ... they give livelyhood to a lot of ppl who "know" them ... like the VH1 sideys in the Fabulous life .. they have big houses ... small puppy dogs that they carry in expensive hand bags ... surely they dont try and kill each other on "Nach Baliye" !!!

Der are so many channels dat many more celebs are required for all of the shows .. more ever each show requires atleast 5 judges so even music directors who have written 2 songs or a director of a flop movie is called for the show ... nd some old faded away movie star is the hostess ... and poof ... lo behold a reality show is ready for another unknown channel...

Corollary for calling judges

1. Incase of da jodi reality shows
Number of Judges = Number of Jodis + or - number of hosts in the show

2. Incase of the infamous talent hunt shows
Number of Judges = (Number of Individual Contestants) /2 + or - number of hosts in theshow



Please note now teams have Indian name like gharanas ... and the hosts of the shows are always smiling ... some use adjectives like "wonderful wonderful" (yup 2 times .. always 2 times) any where in any situation eg. Contestant has finished a wonderful wonderful performance (oops sorry) ... or contestant has just won the grand finals of the show and da host uses wonderful to describe the cheque ... lol .. even if a fight breaks out either between the judges or the contestants .. sorry there is not if but a when and how many times dis happens will be known to regular viewers only (i have viewed dem a few times and my views are hopefully clear on the subject )
I dont want to drag dis discussion in to judge and host slandering ... judges use "sur" and "taal" just like college ppl use da word "f*ck" in sentences .. also all judges praise the contestants and give each contestant 8 or 9 or 10 .. (judges these are not the board exams ;) )

With release of every movie we have special guests .. who give their opinion after every performance ... and whenever a contestant sings a song featuring the "special guest" ... da guest come ahead dancing with the contestant !!!


Ofcourse someday judges will randomly make a contestant cry for a performance that to us according to their high standards would at least get them an 8 ... even their brains go numb thinking they just sang their usual nd now suddenly all judges r jumping on dem (hence da crying) .. ofcourse we will find out in the next episode that for a similar performance that he/she was made to cry now all the judges come on stage to dance on an equally horrible performance ... making judging an absolute waste on the show ... one thing i wonder is why the judges are required since neways the shows are decided by the audience vote ... hmmmmmm

still THEY ARE ALL STARS ...

Diceliving and other things

Posts regarding books that ppl write tend to be ... like reviews given sum vh1 critic in shows like "the fabulus life" ... so i tht i'd just be real nd tell u sme thing abt a cult book that i read ... after a thinking for a really long time i decided to start off with "The Dice Man" … i never thought that books really provide anything other than say a lil entertainment and thats wat is really important… to be entertained … I read this old book called The Dice Man. The book tells the story of a psychiatrist named Luke Rhinehart who, feeling bored and unfulfilled in life, starts making decisions about what to do based on a roll of a die…. this concept is what diceliving is all about … As this book went into the darker side of life and into “evil crimes” that keep happening in our lives it was banned in a lot of countries … including ours that added a new thrill level while reading the book ;) … as i kept reading the book … which kept reaching fascinating somewhat insane levels of thinking with a lot of reality in it … i realized that sometimes the most unreal and out of the world ideas when put across in the right way can be really convincing ….

Just so that u get a bit of where im at here’s how the book ends

“One day when Luke was being chased by two FBI men with .45s he came to a cliff and leapt off. Just catching the roof to a wild vine twenty yards below the ridge and dangling there.Lookin down he saw fifty feet below six policemen with machine guns, mace, tear gas cannisters and 2 armoure cars.Just above him he saw two mice, one white and one black beginning to gnaw away at the vine to which he clung.Suddenly he saw just in front of him a cluster of luscious strawberries.

“Ah,” he said. ‘A new option’.

- from “The book of the Die”

Evil Needs Evil Deeds

I love watching movies and was jus going through the usual stuff the action,romance,comedies some even on drugs, some with messages in them , some that are really slickly made let us say there are films that come and go like the Americn Pie series i think the 7th one is on the floor then there are ones on wars and what not but it was when i saw A Clockwork Orange that i realized that some movies are made just to show the evil darker part in all of us Normally good triumphs over evil and we all move on to the next flick

Rarely have i seen a flick where the dark side so shamelessly overpowers the good side.The director Stanley Kubrick (who is fast becoming one of my favourite directors cause of all the genres he has successfully covered) has skillfully covered the journey of a delinquent young man Alex in futuristuc Britain in the picture above who commits all kinds of perverted crimes with his gang .. he is jailed send for rehabilitation and then comes out reformed (or not) …

The music has been used effectively in this movie and the the theme song really sets the mood of the movie .. its dark and futuristic

Scenes from the movie are classy like one where Alex is in jail and the preacher is preaching abt the part when Jesus carries the cross before the crucification and the Romans are whipping him and he begs the Lord to forgive humanity for what they are doing … and all the other inmates arent paying attention to the preacher but Alex is closing his eyes and smiling … The preacher thinks that alex is say “coming in the presence of the lord” … but actually Alex is dreaming of himself being the Roman who’s actually whipping Jesus !!!

The sheer notority of the film makes it worth a watch though the british accent gets to you a bit … Some people mite not like it because as i said in this movie evil rules !!! But if you are a movie buff and dont want to miss a movie in a genre that has not been made before go for this one …
