Daniel Craig...is one swoon worthy dude...he is an awsome Bond and I sure am looking forward to a Quantum of Solace.
What's interesting is the evolution of hero genre...hard hitting, almost tru to life in emotions and contexts one can relate to. Case point is Batman.
Its back to perceivable reality for sure from all the fantasia of the prior movies of the league.
Suddenly, plush and OTT is becoming redundant in many aspects of life.
Is it me or am I subtly just noticing it in conversations between people...lesser bit of bragging, muted consumerisim....
Its also undeniable that with all of the financial crisis its boom time for all the comics…what with all the takes on the current US administration.
This joke I heard the other day on the Tonight Show about how Bush was responsible for the current economic mess resulting in people becoming healthier (as food gets costlier), there is savings on fuel costs ( no one can afford to travel any more)…lesser resources get mined, people are actually saving ( they can no longer afford anthing with what they have) etc etc…so there is less pollution, lesser starin on resources…so the joke goes that he messed up the economy to save the planet!
And this is another nice bit on depression…looks like good manners and stimulating conversation topics are back too!
If anything, these are creative and reflective times. I aint complaining…I’m get my daily dose of humour :)
OK…now here is a good move by NY city’s officials to encourage conscious eating.
Imagine calorie counters on many of the Indian delicacies!...i dread to think how high the counter would shoot at any regular restaurant or even homes. What with all the milk and sugar in sweets and foods with their incredible carb content…spices and oil and refined flour.
Middle class India is bloating and that includes me!To boot, I have just had a calorie loaded biscuit!
Cut to a different theme...
I am in one of those phases, when I am just counting days ...you know...one of those times when you meaninglessly await for the future...days just go by...you almost wish you slept thru them.
Sometimes,I honestly do wish I could get more shut eye
It was a mad weekend for sure and I found myself chasing cars and trying to find answers to questions.
The first bit was a cinch…the later was a complex and an exercise in failure.
And as like the last time, I asked my self -why do we...... ( WE- now, that’s generically putting every one in the same situation that I am- which I think is factually is not the case. There is a significant bunch of the smarter lots from whom I evidently never learn!) …
.......always need to fall to really realize that there is a pit in front of us and people who fall into the pit...will evidently get hurt?
An optimist would say “HURT” is good because...that leads to realization….and I guess we will keep falling till we learn.
Like I did and I think, I ( in particular) always will.
But, heck this time I am not whining at all…I think it was good to know what I did eventually deduce.
