This weekend, I read the book "Five Point Someone" by Chetan Bhagat.I started reading the book yesterday morning and finished it by evening. I was glued to the book. It was amazing. I felt that I was a fourth person in the Five-point gang of Hari, Ryan and Alok. Ryan was the best. He is the real Engineer who is an asset to the nation. We need more Ryans to really see "India Shining".
While reading the book, I felt that the story is happening in my alma mater IIT Chennai. Suddenly there will be a reference to Hauz Khas which reminds me of the fact that it is Delhi and not Chennai.
Also, Chetan has described the incidents in a very humorous way - especially the incident where Hari is caught red-handed by Cherian at his residence. It is hilarious. I am still laughing at the thought of Hari sweating in front of Cherian when he is caught with his car.

Since George is hospitalised with chicken pox, I have been watching a movie a day for the past few days. The ones I liked are Last Samurai, Rainman and Runaway Jury. I would say that Last Samurai would have been better if it was a bit shorter. But it is ok. Tom Cruise has done a good job. He has wonderfully shown the dilemma inside his character Algren. Hoffman is terrific in RainMan. He is so good that when I saw him in Runaway Jury, I was wondering why he is looking normal!!
This blog is created using BlogBuddy, a small windows blog-editor. I got hold of it from SourceForge. A real cool application. It is very useful for blog sites who do not have HTML-Text editor.
It also offers spell-checking with the help of another site.
But I noticed one problem. This app does not let me give atitle for the blog. It just takes the first few wordsof my blog as the title. Also, I cannot assign my blog to any specific category.
We saw that movie today. Hopeless one.. No story.. no effects.. no suspense.. no nothing. IMDB has given rating 4.4 out of 10. I guess even that is too much. It comes under the genre of thriller. Wonder what is so thrilling about it. There a lot of loop holes in the movie.
