I'm back

Hi,
Just as I said when I signed of my last post I'm back.
After just 5 months!!
I do have a knack of understanding myself perfectly ;-)
Jokes apart I'm really confused what to post.
And is anyone reading this junk anyway?
Hoping for the best I'll proceed.
Starting from where I let off last time:
I haven't seen Sicko yet, may be Michael has no intention of releasing it here.
Hmm! I may have to turn to "time tested methods" to get a copy.
And I have got Nelson 18th edition.
It's somewhat of a letdown really. Poor print quality in many of the pages.
May be they think they can economise in low-priced editions. :-(
And I did finish HP 7 in one day! Bought it at 6:30 and finished by 23:00.
It does make you do that.
And who do you think gets my vote for the best character?
Never dreamed I will vote for him till I reached that fateful chapter.
One of the best in the whole series, where Rowling shows one of the most hated of her characters in an entirely new light.
Hope you have guessed by now where I'm heading.
After "The Prince's Tale", I have indeed become the fan of the "Bravest man" Harry ever knew.
There is plenty of scope in that topic, but since I'm supposed to be studying for my exams I'll stop here for now.
Just like last time,
Goodbye till we meet again.

"Sicko"

Hi,
So Michael Moore is back again.
This time the insurance suffers.
If you have not seen his "Bowling for Columbine" it's high time you saw it.
Ignoring the message of that movie has lead to a bigger campus massacre than Columbine.
Coming to "Sicko" ,which was premiered in the Cannes Film Festival and due for release on 29 june, it is a severe indictment of the American health care system which is driving costs towards the sky while at the same time denying the needy. In typical Moore style the movie exposes the real picture which is often hidden from us by the "mainstream" media, which of course is owned by the rich and the powerful. Hmm! if I speak like this may be Mr. God' s representative on Earth will send a couple of CIA agents after me.
Anyway I cant wait to see Sicko.
Among other news New Edition of Nelson is coming out next month.
My poor Bank Balance!!
And Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows in July.
And I'm due for reading "The Children of Hurin" already.
Seems like busy days ahead. All about them in the next post, if and when that gets posted.
Bye for now,
abhi

Some Random Thoughts to start off!

Hi,
Now that my blog is up and running after a good beginning (a crashed firefox and a reboot - I know "windows" is like that, but think about firefox; may be windows is corrupting him. Time to think again about Linux)...
Ha ha very long and unfinished sentence. That's because I'm preparing for my Theory exam and National Board conducted a teleconference on how to write a good paper. ;-) .
Hope Arvind Sally doesn't read my blog.
Coming to think of it at present no one is reading it, it has barely started.

Starting My Blog

Hi,
I was thinking so long about an ideal start to my blog.
But I found that I kept thinking for too long.
Now I'll just start somewhere as usual.
