Link: the road ...

2 comments

Hello ...
Had to make a one day trip to Addu Atoll ...
Had to get some work done in the south ...
I've been to Addu a couple of times ...
Starting early last year ...
Each and every time I'm there ...
It never fails to amaze me ...
Bee-yoo-ti-ful place I tell you ...
Really it's a very kewl place to visit ...
Absolutely fascinating …
Islands linked by cause ways …
Small uninhabited islands …
Dotted along the main road …
The laid back life style …
And of course the famous/infamous link road …
All 12 km of it …
It's almost a tradition to be on this road …
At around 1800 hrs …  everyday of the week …
Lots of people out for a stroll at that time …
If you know what I mean …   hehe …
And yes …
The late evening bike ride along link road …
It's a 15 minute fast ride from end to end …
Civilization on one side …  the ocean on the other …
Some time so close …  you can almost …
Drag your foot in the ocean …  while riding …
A cool salty wind in your face …
Something happens in those few minutes …
The kind of thing that makes you …
Scream out that you are alive …
The sudden realization of being more than alive …
And the people you think of in those few minutes …
Makes you wanna do something about it …
Addu …  a good place …  A different place …
Been there …  done that …  need to do it again …
Great that some our friends …  who we grew up with …
Are from addu …  and I tell you now …
Guys …  cool place you got there …
The place has got prospects ... I am sure !!!

Supernatural …

2 comments

Hello ...
After a few busy weeks …
I got some free time now …
So started watching a new TV series last night …
It's called Supernatural
Watched a couple of episodes at a stretch …
Supernatural is a show by Warner Brothers …
It started to air in September 05 …
It's about two brothers …  Sam and Dean …
Driving around in a black Chevrolet …
Chasing and killing evil stuff …
And saving strangers in small towns …
In the mean time …
They search for their dad …
Who leaves them odd clues …
And try to find who/what killed their mum …
Twenty or so years ago …
I kinda think of it as a mix of some hit shows …
A little bit of this and a little bit of that …
Like a little of X-Files here …
A little of Twin Peaks there …
And a lot of American folklore everywhere …
Not that bad if watched an episode a day …
All in all …  its an OK show …
Thanks to Inn
I'm gonna get a lot more shows soon …
Will write about … 'em when I start watching …
Till then …
Laterx ...

Gonna get myself a MacBook Pro …

1 comments

Hello ...
Introducing Apple MacBook Pro …
This is one sexy machine … I tell u …
I'm seriously contemplating …
About getting myself one of these …
I'm sure this would raise …
A lot of eyebrows but …
I kinda like this …
I've heard a lot about switchers …
I've heard a lot about windows …
Read a lot about Mac OS X tiger …
Done a lot of googling … and reading …
And i dunno why …
But I still have hots for these …
I mean … it can't be that bad …
And now that it supports windows XP …
With bootcamp …
I think this can be a kinda …
And OK investment …
Now that I've decided on this …
I can stop humming this song…
Something ain’t right …
I’m gonna get myself …
I'm gonna get myself …
Gonna get myself connected …
I ain’t gonna go blind …
For the light which is reflected …
I see thru you, I see thru you …
I see thru you, I see thru you …
Ok …
Its a song from the movie Hackers …
Stereo MC’s - Connected…
It's a kewl song …

Loosing the view …

1 comments

Hello ...
Somebody stole my side-view mirrors !!!
Side-view mirrors are mirrors …
Found on the left- and right-hand sides of most modern vehicles …
Though these mirrors do face backwards …
They are meant to show the biker the traffic …
To the left- and right-hand sides of the vehicle.
One of the first important steps …
We learned to take during driver's education was …
To adjust the mirrors so we could see properly …
I take these as suggestions …
And do not strictly follow these rules …
May be i’m reckless …
May be i’m normal …
As almost all the bikers I know and see on the road …
I use side-view mirrors to glance back at persons …
That I don't want to double take to …
Thus, the main function of my side-view mirror is …
To show me pedestrian traffic that I might have passed …
Rather than vehicular traffic trying to over take me …
Also, as everyone else, I use side-view mirrors …
To help me communicate with my passenger sitting behind me …
Especially if the passenger is of the opposite gender …
Now that I've lost my side-view mirror …
I'm contemplating if I should by a pair …
Or just exchange my loss with someone else …
The evil in me is on the verge of winning …
“You may have stolen my mirrors …
but you can never steal my view …
Its just a glance over my shoulders … ”
Objects in the side-view mirror …
May appear closer than they really are …
If any of the person(s) who stole from me is reading this …
I really hope they get my drift …
Dig ???

Henry Gale sure had me fooled …

0 comments

Hello ...
Lost is getting good again …
It did loose my interest a coupla episoides ago …
But its back to it again …
Happens … eheheh …
Henry Gale (played by Michael Emerson) sure had me fooled …
When we first saw him in “One of Them” …
I seriously thought he was a good guy …
Then later in episodes like “Maternity Leave” …
and “The Whole Truth” …
I started to feel that he might be a bad guy …
Then as “Lockdown” progressed …
I felt sure he was a good guy …
And BAM!!! sayid and the hottie comes with proof …
Damn it …
The whole balloon story was crap …
Double damn it …
"My name is henry gale, and I'm from minnesota"…
I dunno about you guys …
But really … that line sure did have me fooled …
Time to watch “Dave” now …
Can't wait to hear his story ripped outta him …
He has got a lot of pissed-off people around him …
Ehehe …
Gotta go …
