Ulaga laptop varalatril...muthal muraiyagaa.....

It was a lazy sunday at my friends house in blore... i didnt really have any plans for that day to go... so i was sitting with my friends lap top.. and also impressed with his 250GB USB portable hard disk which has very good collections of ripped movies.... i started to browse.. the folder... it was such a big folder which has atleast.. some 75-100 movies in it...starting from hindi.. english..tamil.. telugu... german?? and what not...

Decided to spend my whole day with lap top watching these movies........ to begin with .. this movie.. caught my eyes.. at first sight... tis none other than the American pie band camp series.... the same old goofy stuff.. but worth watching some scenes ;) and after quickly looking at that one... i couldnt stop with that.. so proceeded with a serious one now.. and now it was DER UTTERTANG.... it s a german movie about the fall of hitler.. the good thing was...it had english subtitles.. so started watching it.. first 10 minutes i was not sure if i could continue with this one.. but still proceeded with some guts... and finally this movie started to impress me... i started observing the actions of mein furher(hitler)..he has been decieved by his army generals... that is how....hitler the great dictator came to an end... some of them ((the generals) didnt like the way they were been treated so they wanted to be secure when it was actually a time to fight back....

After watching this touching movie... another folder caught my attention... it is none other thaan.. WATER... i knew there were some controversies..going around about this movie... but didn t get a chance to actually research on that... so there goes the start for the third movie... it was also a good one about the difficulties faced by the widows during our independence.. period... the heroin was pretty good... i dont recall her name.. but the little... kid must have caught everyones attention... that one also added to the serious list.... couldnt take it anymore.... so finished with that one... and wanted to continue on with a masala movie.. and this time it was NEAL N NIKKI..... i dont know what made me to choose this one... but i have seen some trailers of this movie when i was in mumbai last year.... so decide to giveit a try../.... i really felt bad to choose such a bad masala... it wasnt good..but still continued to watch because of the (you know what the reasons might be...) :D

Finally... little tired after watching all the movies... right from early morning... and kind of little hungry.. so decided give a break... and had lunch.. and took a little nap... but before i could sleep my friend came back.... and said.. guess what we are going for a movie now.. so hurry up get ready.. i asked what movie.. and where.... he said.. you come.. i 'll tellyou.. it was a local theathre in the marthahalli ring road... and he took me to a telugu movie.. :( aaaahhh.. i couldnt even remember the name.. aaaahnn... it was YOGI.... had to somehow sit till interval.. my head was aching..o could nt take it any more.. but unfortunately i may not be able to go.. coz.. my friend watching it very intrestingly... and the bike key is with him... that being the worst catch.... i had to sit with him till the end of tte movie... where our hero ... fights with everyone and finally settles with the heroin...

came back from the theater... and i was really sad...for being forced to sit in the theater for 3 hours.. so decided to go back to the lap top.. for another movie... now it was 40 year old virgin... :D good one... had real fun ..... if you have not watched it before.. i recommend you watch that movie.. and my thirst for movies didnt stop when i saw the folder name... called Kill Bill... i have heard from a friend of mine about this one... and Uma Thurman ... so finally didnt want to give. up... and it was full time action movie... with all the blood... violence and everything.... i decided to close my sunday.. hmmm what a day huh!!!!!

Tender cocunut!!!

There is a big crowd near the church... which i didnt expect at that point of time... it was too dark in the evening... and there is a small road side cocunut seller on that corner of the road... she is a handicapped woman who has been selling tender cocunuts there... i have been there a couple of times... during my morning walk with cheenu...

That specific day... I was going out for with drawing some money at the near by ATM... but then while returning back... i stopped for while..to understand.... what is really happening over there...

there is a big JCB earth mover crane... and a corporation employee standing with a piece of paper...the person claims that they have sent a notice... just one month before to remove the shop from there.. but there is no response.. from that lady... and the tiny little hut & shop has to be cleared now...

the lady... who own this hut... refuses to move out from that place... from her perspective.. where will she go... what is the alternative for her... is she the only person blocking the road.. infact.. it doesnt block any roads.. but is an hindarance for the corporation road expansion..???i dont know when the road expansion is going to happen... but after hearing all this.. i couldnt stay as a normal audience...

i just went to that corporation offical.. and asked... what is he really trying to do at this place.. mean while.. the person..who operates the earth mover...tried to create a scene as if he is going to demolish the hut..everyone standing there including me.. thought the hut would go into pieces.... but no.. the lady was sitting right next to the big wheel of that massive vehicle.. and the operator could nt move any more... she refused to come out from that place.... the operator has to stop.. proceeding further...

i started again.. can ask you person to be on hold for a minute..... do you think.. it is the right..way to do this..he started.. Sir i have been in service for the past 35 years.. and all this sentiments and all will not work while clearing the sideways... we are also humans.. but at the same time.. we cannot proceed against the GO... and this ladyhas been informed prior about this happening.. and it is not fair on her part to still...stay and claim for this place...

Before ..i could proceed... there was another person.. who is supposed to be a very old gentleman who also stays in my street..came all the way from the crowd and pulled me outside....... he started asking me... what do you think...you dont know anything about this... have you seen any of the demolitions.. before,... you just come from here.... i have seen a lot in my experince.. whatever you say...may not be taken...into consideration... so just come away and dont argue with the person...

damn... how could he speak like that... agreeed from a logical perspective.. what all they say is right..but bloddy... its 9 in the night... and where will the old lady.. go if thier hut is removed... with this massive machinery... she still has some of the cocunts..lying in front of the hut... atleast cant you people see that she is a handicapped..i have interacted with her a lot of times and she also has a kid...

but this gentleman.. knows me right from my kindergarden days... he doesnt allow me to speak anymore.. and we started an argument...right there.. where i refuse to leave from the situation and he desperately wants to pull me out...

i went back to the corporation fellow... (all my respect for him has come down really).. i said.. i totally agree with your...G.O.. and other formalities.. but i guess this is not the right time do clear this place.. come on where will she go... please come back tommorrow morning and carry on with your execution... when there is day light.... atleast give them a 'nights' time to clear things from the hut... where will this small kid sleep in the night... and what do you going to achieve by executing your G.O this very minute... cant you just wait for the sun to rise..

By the moment .. i completed this sentence.. my neighbour uncle... started again... back to me... cant you understand.... just come out from there.. dont argue.... i said.. fine i am coming ... all i asking is a request to wait till morning... and after this its upto... you... by this time.. my uncle..or the so called old man.. pulled me holding my hands from the crowd.. and wanted me to go to home... he said... you better go to politics..(with a smile)...

I just smiled back.. and went back to home.... still worrying what could have happened.. there

The next day morning.. i was so anxious to go back and see what really happened... to my surpise... the hut was there... but couldnt see the lady

While coming back from office the same day evening...... I wanted to make sure to just have a look at the place... it was even more pleasant surpise for me.. the hut has been shifted little backwards from the existing place... so that it doesnt block the road expansion....

Sometimes complex problems do have very simple solutions..... :D and i saw the same lady sititng with tender cocunts lying all around.. and her little girl playin with a small roadside puppy...
