Cricket
I have never been a fan of this game...I dunno what so ever! I always thought that media and people gave too much attention to the sport. Anyways this post is in support of the indian team.. yeah! they lost big time... but what the heck? they are humans
Media and fans please give them a break.... Its "just" a game ... and please treat it like one.

Mozhi - Review
Got a chance to see this movie, let me tell you this movie is way better than the movies that are out recently. I must also confess that i have not seen all the movies that were out.
Thanks to prakash raj again for such a lovely movie.
A simple story but very well told. I would give a 4.5 out of 5
[+] - Prakash raj [+] - Story [+] - Jothika [+] - Light but nice humour
i cant actually see any minuses in the movie. If you get a chance then dont miss the movie

2006-2007
You realise that you dont write to me? Emailed my cousin, and what he meant was i never take the initiative to write mails. I was more happy to press that 'reply' button than the 'compose' button.
May be 10 to 15 years back i remember my mom asking me to add 3-4 lines in her letter to my granparents...she would say ' you should make it a habbit of writing letters' they will be happy to see your message. Same was the case when we recieved letter from them, my grandad made sure he wrote a paragraph just for me. The problem was reading it... his writing was a perfect example of a doctors prescription. He was a doctor! It used to take me a while before i could decrypt the message and read. Now that i am proficient enough to read his letters he is no more. Anyways that is not the issue and i dont want get too emotional on that.
I felt that, this year i was too lazy when it came to writing mails. No more leaking pens, no more stamps, no more rainy day... no more...err almost nothing... all it takes is 'write n send'... rest assured that it has reached the intended person.. unless mr.daemon decides to reply you back. A small simple mail personally addressed makes me feel happy... and i bet everyone agrees with me. So i would try my level best to write mail, i mean initiate of my own.
Year 2006 has been a nice year... few ups and downs and looking forward for 2007.
wishing all my blog friends a happy n prosperous 2007.

mapquest
Yesterday for the first time i used map quest... this site has a feature that i can choose not to use highways in the route to the destination and since 5 north is pathetic in the evenings i gave this a try.
I took me to another street by the same name in the same city... tho' i had given the full address.. lucky me that.. it was within 5 miles of my destination

The Prestige - movie review
This is a movie about two magicians played by Hugh Jackman and Christian Bale. A story of friendship turning to rivalry and which turns to vengence! I went to see this movie for the reason that, it was from the director of momento and batman begins. The movie is good and definately worth watching once.
Scarlett Johansson has a worth while role in the movie! The only drawback in the movie is when Tesla box comes into the picture. Other wise, the performance, screenplay and editing is all flawless. So my verdict, go see it!
I saw prestige on friday and another movie called The Departed yesterday. Though the ratings for the movie were good, i din like the movie much. The movie has a similiar story line to that of kuridhi punal by kamal hassan. Undercover cop gets into a mafia gang and the gang is trying all means to find out about the rat! The movie is nothing great considering that it has Matt damon and jack nicolson. My verdict watch it if you have nothing else to see
Yesterday we all had a small get together for diwali, it was fun. It was fun playing with the kids. But poor them, they dont get a chance to fire crackers here! I bet they will be afraid to play with them when they go back to india.
Hope everyone had a safe diwali! subha i owe you the tag, i will write one soon
Watch this and enjoy! these guys rock, its called the Yogi B n Nachathira Feat Lock Up - Madai Thiranthu

weirdo me
I have been tagged by marutham, its been a long time that I wrote a tag. Well the tag game is back and I am back with a tag story. The tag is about few weird things about me. I reckon everyone has their own weird side and here is mine.
CAR SINGER: you would have heard of bathroom singer! Now what is this car singer?? Well perusa onum illa. I like to sing when I am driving alone. one crazy habit! I know if I turn the speakers off, I would myself stop singing as my voice is pathetic but anyways..
COMIC LOVER: There is nothing weird about this, other than the fact that, i still love to read comics and watch cartoon. If anyone out there is like me, then you tube and google videos rock. I saw tintin in tibet in google videos.
POORI HATER: yeah! I hate those pooris! I cant just stand them, I used to like them when I was a kid, but I dunno when I started hating those things. Poori dripping oil, my god! I cant even imagine.
Shoe lace: This might sound totally non sensical, but I cant tie my lace which will hold itself for more than an hour, I dont know what happens to the stupid thing. After a preset time, the stupid thing unties itself. So atleast 5-6 times in a day I tie my lace… thats sad!
Maths : Guys at college know that I was pathetic in maths, what they dont know is at times I can really silly with simple ones. Like 11 in binary is eleven or 70 + 29 is 89, even now I do these mistakes.
Absent minded: I was never like this, but these days I am turning into one big time. The list includes, trying to call my own cell number from cell itself, ends up listening to my unread voice mail. Taking exactly the wrong freeway (North instead of south) and realizing after a while.
I am tagging sp, nawaz

limited or no connectivity
Disclaimer : Computer Related
I dont know how many of you have had this problem? Yesterday i had this problem in home laptop. I could'nt connect to my wireless router. It kept giving me this error.At first i thought it could be the problem with the router. What happens at times is, as we dont turn off our router for days together, it would require a simple restart. I tried that but in vein.
Then i saw that, this message (limited or no connectivity) i was recieving when my system was trying populate it ipaddress, i mean thru DHCP. So now i thought DHCP server in the router was not working properly.
So i assigned a static Ip in the subnet as that of my router and DNS as my router and tried again, this time it was wierd, i was able to ping my router but nothing beyond it. So this eliminated the problem with my wireless card.
I tried repairing the network connection, tried restarting the laptop but all measures failed. Was wondering if i had re install my OS, that would be tedious.
So when i googled from my friends system, i found that, the culprit could be some spyware. My firewall program (ZONE ALARM) had run a scheduled check previous night and had found handfull of spywares, and some sites said, while removing the spywares some of them corrupt the TCP/IP stack.
So, that could be a posibility and luckily i found this tool
I must say that this is a must have tool! work fine and if you are worried that, its altering ur registry you can also, take a snap shot of ur registry with this, in case u want to revert back.

Going to cinema
For people abroad it is a comman excuse for seeing a movie online is that, the movie has not released in a theater near by. So? you download a movie and watch it?? No thats not the way! i am not being a saint here and not that i have not done that. Yes! i used to do but these days i feel it is not a very good thing to do...
Why do some sites even do it... my point here is atleast dont upload the movie for atleast 30 - 45 days. Recently i noticed that some movies were online almost the very next day... that is not fair at all!
Point number one..this is not fair and point number two... the movie loses its quality and why should we do that? and for people who make it a point to watch movies online it is nothing less to stealing. Try to refrain from doing that!
anyways saw munnabhai in the big screen yesterday and it is a ok kind of movie, yes it has lived upto the expectations to some extent. My verdict is go watch it!
ghandhi-diri ... haan lage raho munnabhai
