"always look on the bright side of life"-whistles.

I bow my head in shame for a grave, unacceptable, irrecoverable error of judgement, a blunder that I had committed a few months earlier. I am yet to recover from the trauma and grief of this tragic mistake that I have been looking for redemption from this sin for the last few days like a thirsty traveller in the deserts, looking for the oasis, but dreamily. I should not have done what I had done, and there is no repentance for this sin. A confession would ease my burden, so here goes:
(fumbling with the keys, sweating and panting very very hard, a little asphyxiated)

I said tendulkar is getting old, and he should not continue playing cricket.

I know. You are probably ashamed of me. Shocked, disgusted, outraged, confused, and benumbed by this atrocious crime of mine. I deserve every single moment of your disgust, every single word of your invectives, every single syllable of the sounds of admonishments and reprimands; but I am thankful to the few who would be willing to pray for me for this grave error; I know I have now overburdened myself with bad karma. I cannot find solace for neither kailash nor vaikuntam would forgive me for this, but I will tell you this-If tendulkar were to be reborn as tendulkar again in my next birth, I will relive every single moment of this birth minus this impetuous display of careless judgement of one of the single biggest phenomenon of our country.

As it is, from reading my posts, you would understand that I am a little confused, borderline mad, and bottomline stupid. The incident I am going to narrate now, would tell you how I managed to surpass all these, that I would categorically go into the 'bats**t' stupid classification. I went into a fast food joint. I ordered for a veggie platter. You know what I said after that? I said, 'No meat.'

So, I said, 'Veggie platter, no meat'.

Repeat slowly after me, and take your time-'Veggie platter, no meat'.

I thought I was a human being until then, but after this, I am seriously starting to question my roots. What would I have to be? More importantly, which planet in which galaxy? Which other planet in this universe produces idiots who can surpass the ones of this planet?
The clerk at the counter excused himself for a second to go into the kitchen, and when he was back, I saw that he had changed his pants. The old wet ones have to be washed...

After seeing Inception twice, I believe I have some right to make some noise about it, in addition to the existing clamor. Don't watch the movie trying to understand the movie, but pay attention to the attention Nolan has paid for the details. Such meticulous attention to details, elaborate detailing, mind numbing stunts and such a genius of a plot. I still think this movie deserves more than the attention it already deserves. I am not going to write off the criticisms of the movie as blasphemous. The movie is an engineering marvel, and the man who created this deserves the glory-a la matrix, lord of the rings, etc.
This humble good-for-nothing couch critic's opinion: Not even Nolan can create a Dark Knight again, God bless heath ledger.

Now, for some lessons: Don't ever stop. Don't bow down to life, when it tries to break you. Live, and break it. Life is tough for the strong. Its a challenge for the adventurous. Its the most beautiful song for the poet. Its a series of blinding directionless turns for the lost(and lady drivers). Its a blog for the hopeless. Its a frightening dream for the realists. Its a struggle for the meek. Its a lost cause for the downtrodden. Its a worst case scenario for the dreamers.
Life is always good. So, lets do something stupid!(be careful when you drive with all that weed in your car).
