A curious incident indeed

With more than ample free time in my life I guess I have turned to lots of things but most of them aren't worth mentioning in this blog but some of them definately are. I have developed a voracious appetite for
  • Web Surfing
  • TT
  • TV Reruns
  • Books


I had visited Blossoms (a second hand book shop in Bangalore with millions of books and they do have a section devoted to erotica :) ) last week and bumped into this strange book by Mark Haddon called "A curious incident about dog at the night time". It is surely a brilliant account of a autistic child who undertakes a huge journey from a small town all the way to london to meet his mother. I am amazed at the ease with which the author enters into such a weird (technically) mind. Infact something that really leaves one preplexed is the fact that the the line between a autistic and a normal person is and in what pathetic ways do we handle that !

Well please read the book if you are either a fan of "Catcher in the Rye" or you have had the opportunity to see (and appreciate) "I am Sam".

so i decided to get a geared cycle ...ki savere uthh kar kahin ghoom aayenge...dukaan par gaya ...toh keval uske paas ek model thha ..no. color choice also ..."saab lena ho toh lo...."

now i am searching a showroom type shop...
