There's an interesting hunt that we guys had this sunday, trying to figure out if we had an appetite for pizzas; These US Pizza outlets in B'lore do have a unlimited eating package, which we hungry guys wished to exploit, The hunt went interesting when different franchises offered different rates and claimed to have these offers only at their outlets. This was when we were doing our preliminary market research on our thinking palmtops..
We Finally went to HSR layout franchise which apparently had one lone guy as a staff... We ordered and finally asked that guy to cancel it, for which he seemed pretty happy as well ...
We moved to Marthahalli's outlet and this at least had more guys... the salads were fun..quite good pastas and makaroni salads .... but pizzas..we guys finally realized weren't for us.. after three four slices we all gave up..gorging on the garlic bread instead was me..
I just realized that we were close to a friend's place so went over to meet him...the cricket match between India and Aussies was almost looking finished so we decided to play pool for sometime, It was hard to have a game with three guys, me, tarang and Raj, but we trid innovative ways of doing that...But then we had this "pro" emerging out of no where... Never having player pool bfore, this guy was like making shots of a lifetime and the lovely ones, the lucky ones...all were raining..Tarang obviously a mastro was having his own time, but the god was this chap "nirupam" again... the rule of "black and white" was invented wherin he got only white and black balls to these 6 damn holes...but mind it the black was no longer a black once other balls were done...so had such a wonderfully bad time at this game...don't know if towards the end some magic or some great counselling whatever be it.. tarang asked me to hit at certain angles and I did get some of the really odd ones.. The only sad thing that weekend's over... Sadder is the fact that I dont expect any weekend coming over after this mostly....But its a beautiful world anyhow isn't it .... ..

And apologies, On a very short note again,
btw just stuck a blog which has a couple of movies one should watch, esp. if he likes one of them. I 've CTRL C-V'd a note from the author's blog, Hope the author doesn't mind - for a reason that he's a bitsian, and yeah an Income Tax Commissioner as well
".... seen some of the best movies I have seen ever... It started with The Virgin Spring (Sweden/Bergman/1960), Mongol (Mongolia/Bordov/2007), The Counterfeiters(Germany/Ruzowitzky/2007), Pan's Labyrinth (Mexico/Toro/2006) and stands with The Downfall(Germany/Hirschbiegel/2004) that we watched last night. It is difficult to single out the best one out of these...however if compelled I would go for Mongol...er...also The Downfall. Mongol traces the life of the most famous person from Mongolia - Ghengis Khan. "
