the da vinci code is in news again...in the state of andhra pradesh, where i live...
reason....the screening was banned conjointly with two other states, just an evening b4 its release...
initial uproar and then the matter fizzled out..
now again, the honorable high court passed a ruling that such a ban was unjustified and directed the government to compensate the distributors...it also called for the release of the movie...
all said and done...one makes the other mars...
the movie was to be screened yesterday but was apparently not...reason being a group of self acclaimed guardians of christianity resenting such release.out with the same old rationale that it affects their religious sentiments...
they staged a protest,resorted to vandalism..damaged some furniture and glass panes at the counter...
all this in the name of religion...
it compels me to wonder what goes on in their mind when they resort to such stupidity... does any religion encourage violence of any kind.[oops violence is too harsh a term in this context...lets call it unrest, public nuisance, craziness..nething...]
wat baffles me the most is that when the movie was created and brought out by an all christian crew, why is it that these so called fundamentalists object...
are they competing against the christians all over the world for the most devout christian award !?!?!?!
wat is, after all ,wrong with all these people who protest in the name of religion..to me its jus an eyewash...a gimmick to attract attention..an attempt to bask in limelight...
little do they realise that in the end, they only make a royal fool o themselves~~~
PS before i end up startin another crusade here...im not targetting neone religion in particular...all u narrow minded religious fanatics pls keep ur views to urselves :)

pee pee everywhere....
im not gonna continue with dat oh so known line....4 my own gud!
my only qstn or thought is ...will boys..oops men ever grow!
its understandable when, as kids, its difficult to "control" the urge to relieve oneself...
it is also totally acceptable that men are indeed at an advantage anatomically...wat with they not having to bother, per se, about scurryin around for a decent if not impeccably clean loo...that advantage comes into picture when, say,ones travelling by road[ with no access to a loo]and travelling i mean long journeys...
but to flaunt it jus cos u have it, is something i cannot really fathom.
y is it that men dont think it necessary to visit the loo b4 steppin out[ frm office, home jus bout newhere]...or is there some weird sense of justification or pleasure they derive by answerin their nature call amidst nature!?!?!
or have they taken it up on themselves to water [?!?!?] trees, cure the walls,nourish the soil etc etc....
this is probably one area where caste, creed, status, education pose no barrier watsoever...it transcends into all strata of the male clan....
u get off a sedan, a SUV, a bike,a cycle or plain walk it...it dont matter when it comes to peein in public.
it compels me to wonder bout the pscyhe of the "pee'ur"...does he think its his birthright to pee jus about newhere... or is it a symbol of his manhood...or is it jus out right lack of self control...
for me and im sure many o the women its plain annoyin, sick and gross to b forced to witness and walk by the oh so many men happily relievin themselves in the open...oblivious to their own surroundings, stench and good sense!
did i stir a hornet's nest....well i dont care!

mirror mirror on the wall, who's the worst of them all....
well a slight alteration to the witch's stmt[ was it the witch? been ages since i read "snow white" ;)]
wat prompts me to alter it in such a fashion...
well im into my second sem of law with some interesting papers such as criminal law and constitutional law and some oh so dull one's like muslim law n contracts..
usually, nay, more often than not a teacher has it in him /her to make even the saddest of all papers, interesting...
also there exist some really sad teachers who kill the interest in a student and not in the subject perse.
but this semester,have i the pleasure of having as my "teachers" , 4 persons who have successfully managed to kill not only the interest in the student, but also help develop a total aversion to the subject!!!
to me it always seems they are competing with each other for the "teacher dat sucks the most" award !!!
picture this:
my criminal law sir, who comes[late] lectures and leaves...no interaction watsoever....
my contracts sir, who for some despises the very sight of us, which is y, he's always teachin the ceiling!!! yes he only looks at the ceiling when teachin :(
my constitutional sir, who in all fairness the least of evils...
and lastly the family law sir, who's sexual orientation is always a doubt 4 me and few other likeminded souls...he blushes when a fellow student throws him a kiss & pouts his lips at "sir", converts the classroom into a playground 4 a while...which is y hes earned the nickname" sleaze ball "
now tell me doesnt my title seem apt...
ne suggestions towards a better title,,,gladly welcome..
till then , well il count the # of days left 4 my second sem to finish!!!
