Blogspot - resurrection !!

Feel greatly relieved that Blogspot finally came back from the dead !!! Was worrying about shifting all my posts to another blog site that may not be blocked ... Good that the ISPs got their wits gathered soon... I was thinking ..what the hell the Government was thinking when it did a blanket banning of Blogspot, geocites and other such sites. Read some interesting quotes by fellow bloggers .. Signing off Sundari

Got a chance to watch Krrish .... there is only one word to describe it ...WOW !!.... A cute and sensitive movie ...perfect for children and the child within us... Felt that a new era of movie making has kick ..no ..no.. leap-started in the Indian Film industry ... The kind of techniques used into the making of this movie is awesome and is light years ahead of the camera gimmicks used in the earlier attempts by any other bollywood director to present in the cut-throat bollywood market... Hrithik-Krrish actually jumps out of the silver screen and captures your imagination with his beautiful acting , elegant dancing and the wonderful stunts ..even though computer generated ... could not have been pulled off by any other actor with such aplomb...

Two of the most saddest things have happened in my life !! My LG phone & my HP laptop both decided not to work at the same time :-(( and as luck would have it both the service centres are located somewhere at the other end of the world..literally ...you would think that a place like Pune would have adequate service centres thrown around ... Hmm..not so...life can't be that easy ... I decided to sacrifice my saturday and visit the HP service centre ... But the lady at the centre gave me the weirdest answer when I called them up... the service centre is open only from Monday to Friday between 9 am to 5:30 pm ... Never in the life I have lived so far have I encountered such a thing... How is a working person who is having the same 9 am to 5:30 pm duty supposed to visit their service centre ? Some of life's questions do not have any answers... I think this is one such question... Still atleast managed to solve the mobile phone issue ... No points for guessing what I did... Hmm.
