The Nano is everywhere.

Heh..came across this while reading my daily dose of comics




I can't believe its global now! I hope they export most of the cars and sell a minority here.Please buy them up, o America!


If its already everywhere virtually, I shudder at the thought of our roads.
I had written about this, and now I am even more convinced! Tata No-No!

What a con!

Ok, I was on facebook, as I am wont to do when I have nothing to do. And I see this banner on the right screaming, " Want to meet your perfect partner? Check out excitinglives.com" or something of that sort. So being single, available, bored and at home, I thought I should give this site a check. Actually I check all new sites, to get more ideas for my entrepreneurial mind. No I am not a narcissist. I am an Entrepreneur. ;p
Yeah, so I checked it out. Looked good. Till I came across this - Charcoal Portrait !
Are you kidding?! This really has to be a con. Or maybe people don't use Photoshop as much as they think. Or so this site hopes! :)
I am starting my own Charcoal services soon!!! Heck, if people fall for this, I might as well take advantage of it, you know.

Ok, see ya around soon. I am off to design my site now!

Awesome TV Idea

I just bought a 42" Philips LCD Tv and was looking around on the internet for a good idea to plagiarize and build a TV cabinet for it. Did find a few which I liked, especially from Ikea.com.
Unfortunately for me, they do not supply to India, and I have to make do with checking out for discount offers from the various furniture homes in Hyderabad.
What I did find on the internet was this video of an awesome solution to store your television.



The only trouble is, I guess since its so close to the eyes, you will need a lot of eye massage creams :)

Luck, Fortune, Dumb

Ok,
Let me first cut, copy and paste the definition of the central theme of this post.

Luck :
n.

1. The chance happening of fortunate or adverse events; fortune: They met one day out of pure luck.
2. Good fortune or prosperity; success: We wish you luck.
3. One's personal fate or lot: It was just my luck to win a trip I couldn't take.

Now lets come to a comment by Katrina Kaif that I happened to come across while reading a magazine today. On being asked about her rise to stardom and how she is now considered a 'lucky' mascot, She said [verbatim], "I don't believe in the word luck, I just think I was fortunate." Umm..Katrina, much as I drool over you, I gotta say, WTF?!! Oh, and when is your sister joining the movies. I gotta practice my drool.

So, I saw 'Shaurya -It takes courage to make right...right.' tonight. A pretty good movie. Ok, it was alright. It was based on the Indian Army, so I thought I must watch it ( a really mild sub-conscious way of appreciating my dad's continuing service in the army and, more or less, to feel some sort of connection to the Indian Army since I declined to join ;p)
Now coming back to the point. It is amazing that the movie is based on valour and the ethical code. It is amazing because of the superb perfomances by Deepak Dobriyal (who has, maybe, 3 or 4 words in the entire movie - give or take 1.) and Kay Kay Menon. Deepak Dobriyal is probably the next Nana Patekar. And Kay Kay Menon is already the Nana Patekar. Both of them were simply too good. And so is Nana Patekar. No, he is not in the movie. I just think he is a fantastic actor.
Now coming back to the point once again, what is even more amazing about this movie being about valour and the ethical & moral code is that the movie itself is a ripoff of A Few Good Men. Heh Heh. I love such amazing hypocrisy and tongue-in-cheek stuff.
What you will ask me, is that how does this tie in with the theme of this post - luck. Actually, it does not. In any major way I mean. The Major in the movie - Rahul Bose, is assigned to be the Defence Lawyer. And he is suddenly struck by the peculiarity of the case while driving on a highway with his crush. He stops the car and tries to re-enact the crime scene and asks the question, " Why did Javed shoot Rathore and Rathore only?! Why didnt he shoot anyone else?"
Ummm..Bose, you really won the case by pure luck, didn't you? If this is not in the first 3 questions that you ask as soon as you are assigned the case, and deem it correct to ask and mull over when I am already on the 2nd CD of the 2-CD movie, you better be darned lucky to crack your next case, son.

I crashed my car 2 weeks back. The left side of the car. Due to no ABS and EBD, taking a slight curve on a wet road at 60kph caused my car to skid across the road and crash into the pavement. The impact damaged the fender, the apron, the lower arm, the left supension, the wheel and my savings in the bank. ONE day after I finalised the sale of the car. And ONE day before the guy was supposed to take delivery.
THAT is a Pure Unadulterated Bad Instance of Catastrophe.PUBIC.
So Katrina, I was unlucky and not fortunate enough. When is your next movie coming out? *drool*
