1 week from now and I'll be in India. Reality is finally starting to set in.
It's been close to 10 years since I last went, and I've been anxious to go back ever since. That time has finally come.

I really do not think I could feel as ****ty or miserable as I feel right now. The situation I have been dealing with for the last few weeks is just eating at me. It's absolutely painful to deal with this. Not going to say what it is yet, but damn, it makes you ****ing feel like absolute ****.

I've lost so much motivation, I sleep at 10 PM now because I'm just plain depressed about this. Ugh.

When the Thoughts thread was funky I posted an article which may have gone unnoticed about the rise of Indian Fast Food in American culture. It was really interesting to see the rise of Indian fast food. I should have Na'an someday.

I'm still recovering from the feds shutting down Megavideo a few months ago, but I am beginning to move on from it. I have been pleasantly surprised by Netflix's improved inventory ever since I cursed them into oblivion and canceled my subscription last year.

Although I feel that I have great taste in movies, I do fall victim to the alluring nature of the occasional cheesy action/horror movie every now and then. I just can't help it. Today it was Hard Target and Congo, which happen to be two pretty good movies.

I completely forgot about Congo, which actually has some mild starpower to it (Laura Linney, Ernie Hudson, Tim Curry, Dylan Walsh, Delroy Lindo cameo). Vastly underrated movie. A pretty good mixture of sarcasm/humor, intensity,adventure, violence, gore, and horror. It also reallyhelps that the director actually used real actors (instead of the the overexcessive cgi crap that gets used for everything these days) to portray the sadistic man killing apes, and it worked. It looked more real than anything I've ever seen.

The music is very good too, and being the avid fan of all things movie scores(soundtracks) that I am, I just found a new favorite...


Jerry Goldsmith actually happens to be one of my favorites. Also, after watching this movie, It has really dawned on me that 1995 was a very, very, long time ago, which (even though I'm still young) makes me feel very old, because I remember everything about 1995.

If you like the movie I would suggest reading the book, I think it's better. It's in my rotation of books I read over and over again.

Good to hear, buddy. Have a wonderful and safe trip!!

"Keselowski". And you actually have it backwards. Not only did they not penalize him for having his phone in his car, they said it was perfectly ok. They even went onto say that they encourage all their drivers to use social media. Though not while driving, of course.

I think Danica might have been tweeting in the car, or putting on makeup, or something. Not a good idea when you're a woman driver to start with.

Her in-car audio was funny after the 88 turned her in the nwd race. Sure as *bleep* wasn't very *bleeping* lady-like after that *bleeping* mother *bleeper* *bleeping* wrecked her *bleeping* car.

I don't want to seem like I know what's going on. I don't. But having been through some nasty stuff, I can honestly say that I haven't found a wound yet that time doesn't heal. Doesn't help you now, I know, but some small amount of solace I hope.

Be well, and if I can do anything, let me know.

Again, maybe I'm just blowing it out of proportion, I've been way too paranoid on here in the past, and I'm always afraid that people are angry or mad at something I did. Let's just say I did something pretty silly a few weeks ago, and somebody hasn't responded to me about that. That's all I want to go into right now.

Ohhhh....

Your PM asking me out. Look dude, I'm flattered. Really. And I wish you the very best, but I like girls. I thought it would be less hurtful to just pretend I didn't get the message.

Cheer up. It'll pass.

don't just have Na'an, it's just bread. Have it with Butter Chicken (Chicken Makhni) or a Paneer dish. Indian food is amazing if you like spicy food. If not, then you may want to stay near a bathroom for a few hours afterwards.

Butter Chicken is boss.

Here is the article on Indian Fast food.. The article mentions a place in DC called Merzi, have any of you been there and would you recommend?

Tandoori chicken is also pretty good too. Would love to try Indian sometime.

Never been to Merzi and haven't heard much about it. Honestly I don't go to many Indian restaurants cause I can easily get just as good if not better food at home. But I'm excited to get some legit Butter Chicken in India, cause last time I went I was still a vegetarian.

Denim Chicken is superior.

Just caught the end of a commercial, some type of sold on TV hair trimmer. I don't watch commercials typically (live sports is the exception), but it made me wonder why would any product that is advertised this way would take 4-6 weeks for delivery ?

There is an "As Seen on TV" store at one of the malls around here. If I saw something I wanted on one of commercials, I would just go pick it up and not wait. Seems pretty silly that it could possibly take that long.

Does anyone know the reasoning ?
