Inscrutable Americans

Monday,26 may 2.56 pm
I don't remember which year it was,but as it happens every year,nanimaa gave money for baisakhi [i always remind her that,no one nowadays celebrates baisakhi mela but she likes to stick to her traditions]So what did i do with money which nani had given for eating junk food and sweets :D ?
I bought the inscrutable Americans by Anurag Mathur :-)
So i write about the most hilarious book i have ever read [I start laughing hearing its name hehe]

Genre - fiction,comedy

Age factor - 17 and above

The book
A small town boy has to spend a year in America.His english is twisted and bit different and funny from the actual english.So the story is great,its hilarious.The boy wonders,why a guy is named randy in America?
Arent randy's supposed to be women as happens in India? something like that.So,the whole of his year in America is put forward to you.
Another point worth noting is the depth of emotions that the author has covered in a disguise of a hilarious story.
A great book,i heard a film is to be made out of it.I am going to watch it for sure.
Read it,if you haven't read it.Learn while you laugh your heart out.

Gifting ideas
95 rupees is the print rate.Rupa@co. is the publisher,a wonderful book to gift your friend or a cousin.My observation says boys like this book more then girls do.Since its a bestseller, you can find it very easily.Most of the bookstore owners know all about it.

A thought worth sharing
" The smallest bookstore still contains more ideas of worth than have been presented in the entire history of television." ~Andrew Ross

Trail of Mohammad Ajmal Amir Kasab – A joke!

Who do you trial? Who does this? What is this all about? Is this playing with justice or is it just a mockery of the whole thing? Well, there are lots of questions and I find very less of answers to all these. Mohammad Ajmal Amir Kasab is the only survivor from the pack of Pakistani terrorists who attacked Mumbai on November 26, 2008 (better known as 26/11). He was captured while he was on a rampage killing scores of people and injuring hundreds, on that dreadful night in Mumbai. There was a lot of fuss in the last few months about him being a Pakistani or his age to be prosecuted in an adult court or with his captivity. Recently, the long awaited trial started and everyone is waiting to see what the court will decide on his fate. Ridiculous! What is there to decide? Hang him!! Simple… Well, I do not want to hang him without getting all the information from him and only after proving that the attackers were all from Pakistan and the whole incident was built up by the Pakistani Army, Go...

A tale of 1 country: Brothers in arms

I stand at my balcony and watch the unfortunate (no not unfortunate) events unfold 2 floors down. Dadi (grandmother) has fallen to the ground and is crying, my mother has a face of steel, its frozen into a blank stare; I know this state, I have seen it before, she is controlling herself showing a brave and proud wife to the world. She is helping dadi. Uncle keeps pointing past the gate and is shouting something at dada (grandfather). Dada has just locked the gate and is walking back to the house. Past the gate I can see a group of people all clad in white, surrounding something lying on the ground covered with a white cloth. My governess Shobhadi stands next to me holding me, afraid that I'll run downstairs into the scene unfolding. She and and the servants have been given strict orders that I can not be allowed downstairs. Dada thinks I do not understand what is happening, he thinks I cannot comprehend what is going on, but I do. The year is 19...

(disgraceful but i'm sure he was jealous coz he is still a bachelor at that ripe old age) -> Bombings planned by Hindu Religious Leaders and the emergence of "Indian Mujahideen". (stupid fools can think of only violence and even a sadhvi was a part of this. I'm sure each everyone is corrupt. I won't be surprised if they were working for some islamic terrorist group) -> The atrocities against Christianity in Mangalore and Orissa. (Shows that our country's intellectual level is growing in reverse!!) -> Curtailing of pub culture in the Pub City of India.

U asses democracy means freeedom of individuals and an individual never lives in the same way as others do!!) -> Rajasthan CM announcing that he will do away with mall culture. (I think he is working fo...
