Can rattle off names of all major female porn stars since 1972. Feel Black Adder should be made world president. Think Bogart rules. Used to write in mother tongue, but am using a notebook these days. . ''Don't sit under the apple tree with anyone else but me.'' Collect comic books and other second-hand junk. Follow Marx, albeit of the Groucho variety. Addicted to cigarettes, pop art and women (in that order).

Laughed out loud at the review. Couldn't help but imagine a tech-savvy monster, one who chewed on Dr. Dobbs before the rest of the country knew what a computer was, saddled with this gizmo (can I call it one?).

Have to admit that the Honda Activa is one of the most attractive two-wheelers around. The first time I rode it was in my student days in Pune. Later three days all over Goa. Phenomenal mileage and great handling. Now I want a Vespa... Great Review. so long and thanks for all the phish!

I completely agree with the fact though, that being a Peter Jackson flick it fell short of expectations. But I guess that's the price of fame. Strongly feel Adrien Brody was under used. Also typical black and white characters made it typically Hollywood. Good review of a good movie. so long Read More...
