Yesterday's newspaper.

Forrest Gump. Rohan, although i agreed with you before, i must expostulate now. In my opinion, the film did connect emotionally. The acting was, of course, just what to be expected from Tom Hanks, but the storyline too was an unusually beautiful one.

I played pool and guess what? i lost to a couple of strangers! Well, it came down to that shot of mine before which both me and Ratul were doing rather well. And then i fouled. Crap! We lost. And er, a small excuse is that it was my second day at pool, i did play quite well actually, in case you were thinking i was hopeless at it. That wouldn't go down too well with my ego.

I fisnished "Anything for you ma'm" by Tushar Raheja. An interesting, funny book. It talks about simple normal things, but the way it talks about the simple normal things is the factor that appeals to me. Definitely a nice read.

Thats about that folks, nothing of interest in my life presently but its just a matter of time before i am back in form, living up to my reputation of being a weirdo!

Your reputation as a weirdo? Rick, I never knew...that certainly gives me ideas (insert cackling laughter here).
Tell you what, watch 'Road to Perdition', starring Tom Hanks, Paul Newman, Jude Law and Daniel Craig. It's definitely one of the most affecting movies I have ever seen.

"invariably awful"-the worst offhanded insult in a long time!
