Nature's Finests Desserts

After a wonderful lunch.. a dessert is definitely called for. A dessert is a sophisticated term for a sweet dish after a meal(I love being sophisticated). Its pronounced "dis-zert". The word comes from the old french desservir,meaning "to clear the table."

Common desserts include cakes, cookies, fruits, pastries,ice- creams and candies. More Indian way of saying..it could be payasam or kheer, gulab jamun(slurp.),fruit salad,or any indian sweet dish served afer meal..(mera bharat mahan..).

Well today i had my lunch and was on my way to the hostel (on my knight rider.. wait for a blog on it ), while I saw this man yelling at me" banni saar banni, 10 rupaige yelneeru saar "..taaja saar..sweet ide"ganji beka ,neeru beka,kai beka.."

An exact translation would be " come sir come, 10 rupees young coconut water"(this translation could be funny..its not without a purpose..coming soon "englishina kole".. i cant resist this.. here is a classic one i heard at class " you salve the prablams pikkedd pikkedd from tha textbook" in kannada it goes like this.."pattya pustakadinda prashnegalanna hekki hekki uttarisi")

(Ok jokes apart) I stopped for a drink. He said"taaja saar..sweet ide..ganji beka ,neeru beka,kai beka.." I said "anna.. ondu ganji kodi". Let me explain the different varieties of coconut u get. I'm not going by their species or varieties but by the local slang used for describing your requirements..

Neeru:
Its a plain very young coconut that contains jus sweet water for a drink..rather enormous content.. a normal size could contain upto 650 ml of juice. After u r finished u jus pay and walk off (looser.. don get anything more)

Ganji:
(also paper ganji or plain ganji)
Its the same previous package..the coconut is older than previous one. juice volume could be less but after u are finished (u get a surprise gift inside) u give the vendor to slice it open and u can relish a thin film of just formed coconut flesh. This white slush is tastes like heaven. if its paper ganji den u could get fairly one or two mouthful of flesh.. plain ganji gives u with this flesh in abundance but lesser coconut juice.

Kai:
This package comes with plenty hard coconut flesh that is edible and can be very fulfilling, the quantity of juice available could be jus around 300 ml. Opt for this if your meal is lite(u get more to eat).The coconut flesh is chewy, sweet and delicious..

Back to my story.. so i drank the juice which almost filled my stomach,but a huge relief on a hot working day afternoon.. soon i was about to leave when the vendor cut it open and offered the young soft sweet flesh.. here u go ..its one of nature's finest desserts in the offering..

With a heavy but fulfilled(fully filled also..) stomach i climbed up my bed only to sleep all the way to glory..

Summer's First Showers

This poem is an inspiration of the heavy untimely(a relief tho..) rains that lashed through out yesterday.. i call this one

Summer's First Showers

Sun's tyranny
Seemed infinite
Scorching majestically
To death,all in its path

An inferno incessant
Mercury danced alongside 40
Chaos surrounded
A savior was awaited

Out of unknown horizons
Came dark shadows
Of hope
Of life

Time froze
Everything went into oblivion

A drop fell
Another fell, soon many..

Pearls from Shangri-La
Quenching thirsts
Refreshing lives
Summer's First Showers

Aroma of the first rains
Ethereal aphrodisiac
Earth cried out in consummation
Transcending pleasures

Skies thundered
Rains lashed
Blazing sun
Succumbed defeat

Cool breeze swooped
Azure tranquil sky
Rainbows arose
Life Flourished

No Country For Old Men

As i promised i'm back with a post on No Country For Old Men.. Well the movie stands out for its title..if you think its a movie on some bunch of old idiots.. you are mistaken, except for Tommy Lee Jones and couple of others who die.. this movie is not really abt old ppl.

The movie is abt a psychopath killer..his weapon.. an oxygen cylinder and a nozzle. His style of killing ppl is unprecedented..he shoots them with a blast of high pressure gas through a small nozzle..(No wonder Hollywood has inspired inventions and psychos)

Well the Coen brothers have made this movie to prove all movie goers think twice before predicting a storyline. The movie takes strange turns at untold points. You keep wondering "Ah look out..at last this man is gonna get killed".. but there you go ..you are wrong.. bad men never die(pun intended)..

This movie keeps you chewing your fingernails(well atleast my nails are done with) as well as toenails if you are hungry.The only thing(There are other things too) I could decipher of a strong Texas accent is that there are lots of crazy ppl out there.. Beware..

The technicals of the movie are strong(could be a reason y it won Oscar)... dark scenes throughout.. screenplay..direction(of course) and acting.. Story as i said is not appalling..
Its an adaptation of a novel of the same name by American author Cormac McCarthy.

Intended audience: (psychopaths.. tutorial on ways to kill) not any average Indian..
I recommend this to ppl who are strong fanatics of english movies.. ppl who want to kill some time (ppl like me)... also ppl who boast of watching every Oscar winning movie(again ppl like me)..

Charlie Wilson's War

Abhi was always asking me to download a certain movie.."Macha! its great.. Tom Hanks Julia Roberts and even Om Puri.. i don kno the name..search for it dude.."
Then i was like "Dude.. nfs prostreet is still on.. i'll think abt it"..

On 11 our internals was over.Kishore and myself went to return a cd at the parlor .
("No Country for Old Men" I watched it the day before.. HELLO! studying for internals would have been better..i wonder why was it given an Oscar...wait for my blog on that)..

I picked Southland Tales(another stupid movie) while Kishore saw Julia on the cover and took this cd.. Never stopped loving ever since.(Now i'm actually reading the biography online..)

Based on a true story of Texas Democratic Congressman Charlie Wilson, an adaptation of a biography of the same name written by George Crile, this movie is wonderful.

I think its the real story thats put the charm in this one else "boo-hoo the movie is bad for a fiction".. i mean everyone has done their job perfectly well but the story gets the honors.

(Backdrop 1979..height of the cold war..Soviet a huge communist country is expanding frontiers..) Soviet attacks Afghanistan with all their sophisticated weapons ,the guerrilla mujahideen struggles to put up a fight. Charlie ,an unorthodox senator with controversial habits and an opulent sex life, plans this secret war with a rogue CIA agent Gust.

Charlie was the House Defense Appropriation Committee member and increases the CIA covert operations budget gradually from an initial $5 million(ppl around the world thought it was a joke) to a whopping $1 billion. Its actually believable that CIA could undertake such a covert mission,but at the height of the cold war it should have been impossible.

I recommend this movie to all those lazy people who cant read.. others go to this link and read the biography its wonderful.

My First Blog

Rome was not built in a day... yeah rite.. it took me more than a day to jus customise my blog template..I was lost looking for my persona in them.. after hours of googling and more of Kishore's nagging...(he's not stopping even now),look i settled for this.
