Black coffee with Karan

Karan Thapar's interview with hon. HRD minister Mr. Arjun singh.

Mr. Arjun Singh doesn't his As from his Bs. If there was one guy who could win "Single most stupid move to destroy a country's future", this guy would win hands down for his brilliant act.

Here's his interview with Karan Thapar. Arjun Singh sounds like a lost lamb. The country feels so much safer with people like him in charge.


Brilliant piece of interviewing throughout. But, the ending takes the cake (and the icing):

Karan Thapar: What about the Government of India? Has the Government of India failed to respond adequately?

Arjun Singh: From the Government of India also, the Defence Minister met them.

Karan Thapar: Only recently.

Arjun Singh: That is something because everyone was busy with the elections.

Sad, sad state our country is in.

Poseidumb

Poseidon - n. greek mythology God of the sea
- n. movie about a namesake ship which (sigh) sank


Watched 'Poseidon' yesterday. Even the god of the sea could not save the movie from sinking.

Let me summarise the movie -
" A ship sinks. Some people survive."
That's it. I just saved u a chhota gandhi and couple of hours of pain. So, what are you doing reading this stupid blog? Go spend it on something better.

For those who have nothing better to do, read on -

Hmm, the movie is about a ship named poseidon (yes, I've already said that. But, hell, its all there is to it). Okay, so this ship is huge and by huge I mean really huge. yes, much much bigger than Rakhi Sawant's 'you know what'. So, this ship is in the sea with all these passengers, doing what big ships do.

It's new year time. Item number by Fergi (Black Eyed Peas). Everyones happy dancing. The moment you see all this hoopla, you know somethings gotta give, this baby's gonna sink and you know how.

Enter a big wall of water. Bam! ship starts sinking. And with that, the movie. Some people try to escape. Some don't make it, some do. As usual as soon as these 6 ppl leave the ship, it drowns. Phew! just in the nick of time.

The movie is as engaging and thrilling as watching your grandma knit (yeah, some ppl may find watching their grandma knit entertaining. I would recommend them the movie).
All said, if you have some money spare in your pocket and don't know how to spend it - courier it to me. I'll be more than happy to invest it in a malty beverage made by fermenting cereal.

Bottom-line:
Titaninc # 1047 other rescue drama movies = Poseidon
