A book from a genre you almost never read, that you have read, or you will read (promise!):

Hmmm. Hmmmm again. Hmmmm. Why did you start blogging? : hmmm again. Ans : why did I ever start doing this meme ??

Today.

 Yesterday night I was just surfing the channels, while in many the reality shows were running, in one there was Rakhi Sawant yelling. I turned up the volume to hear what she was saying. There was this news scrolling on the screen.

Rakhi’s item number dropped from Krazzy 4.  

“Its publicity gimmick” I commented.

Wife “ What?”

Me “Well these guys, they will shoot it, then drop it, and then all the crazy news guys will roam around the actors, producers, directors and  the viewers analyzing the situation. All for publicity”

Wife “oh”

Me “I think they should not be given all this publicity…………………..they don’t deserve it………..” I went on and on and on for 10 mins while Rakhi was screaming on screen.

That’s when the scrolling changed to RAKHI FOOLED !!!!!! 

Wife “hahaha….” And went on and on and on…

Me “….”  

Today morning the Bangalore Times (the gossip section of TOI) had this STOP PRESS news.            

Saif and Kareena got HITCHED !

I read the entire article. And the last line read this Turn to page 3 for exclusive pictures And I turned only to see this APRIL FOOL !! 

I wonder how I fell for it two times in a row. Years back its used to be friends or colleagues who make a fool out of us (some don’t do it for fun J) now it’s the media. Well I think they are making a fool out of us the entire year!

PS : Read the post title as “Today is Fool’s day”

I am blocked !

Okay. So that’s a huge setback. My laptop or to be precise my antivirus/internet security software has blocked ma site. So each time I try to login it says I am trying to access my site its blocked. The reason? The word crap in it.

Well this post is not to let you guys know that I bought myself a laptop.  Compaq presario. with Turion…..

Just like I was saying this post is not to let you guys know that I bought a laptop (I am repeating that again aint I?), but that like myself many others who are trying to access my site would be blocked not cause of it contents (which according to me is suitable for all ages) but cause of the blog name.

Well that just sad.
