Adoption......

I once read in Linda Goodman's book that people with the sun sign-Aries tend to adopt people rather than befriend them....

Hmmmmm.... many many many years later methinks that I agree.

The main problem in this scenario is that the person who gets adopted often doesn't realize that he has been adopted and then ensues a comedy of errors and often a tragedy of high proportions.....
All this in because of expectations and no expectations I guess...

So I think that it is best to go slow and not help people unless they ask for help, we should just watch people falling into holes and then rush forward only when they cry out aloud( aka Mahi..)     .....Naaah! This is something that I have never done and will never do, I shall always warn the person that there is a pit before they fall in, and if the person feels that my warning just slowed them down, just too bad ya!

Saw GOW yesterday and was so impressed, what a movie, too blasting good....

Also am two-thirds done with my chanting...tried to chant without the text and failed so miserably, so all I can conclude is that I have probably developed some sort of a mental block for that chant, coz I certainly was able to memorize other stuff....hmmmm.. Maybe Miss Marple can tell me how to get to the bottom of this...

Monica, O My Darling

Straight off the bat, let me tell you that I went into this movie cold. I just saw the trailer and put it on my watch list. I was totally enamored with the cast and the premise. I knew I was going to watch this one, so I didn't delve into the promotional shenanigans.  So if you are of the same bent of mind, stop reading and start watching.  And on your behalf, I did Google Ankola, it is a town in Karnataka and is not to be confused with Akola in Maharashtra. Ha ! Ha! Netflix has been delighting us with gems like Raat Akeli thi, Haseen dilruba and Bulbul. Add this one to that list and think Gehraiyaan. I need not stress on the proficient star cast. They are masters of their craft. Starting with the sneaky Rajkummar Rao, the sultry Huma Quereshi and the wily Radhika Apte, the ensemble includes the creepy Sukant Goel, the beleaguered Zayn Marie and many others. For me Sikandar Kher was a standout. A shoutout to his intensity and his baritone.  The dialogues are spot on and t...

Razorblade Tears by S A Cosby

    This book belongs to the revenge trope and I enjoyed reading it for a reason, other than just the story or the thrills, it was for the delicious turn of phrase, that the author employed. Here are some examples: “It didn’t seem fair for a man to mourn someone so deeply, whom he had loved so miserly!” “Wound on his cheek was weeping like a broken-hearted bride.” “As careful as a long tailed cat in a room full of rocking chairs.” “Give a man a clipboard and watch his true nature come out.” “He smiled; it was like watching an icicle form.” The story is about two men who are bound by destiny, when their sons who were married, are murdered. The tapestry is enriched by the fact that one family is black and the other is white. Throw in the fact that both the fathers are ex-cons and you have an intrigue on hand. Other than the language I liked the way the conversations were handled and how the characters were revealed by thought, word and deed, rather than extrapo...
