Nothing much....




So thanks to vetti ...I fell short of the cooking and Tennis part yesterday....Yesh's b'day party had taken the rest of the night...so in traditional Shanmugha isshtyle.....we had it celebrated....it's more fun to the ppl in the jamboree....so every1 sat down after the exploits abt 2am to watch the celluloid version of Thomas Harris' RED DRAGON ....I had inadvertently bought the DVD a couple of weeks back......but it was worth every penny....I for one think it's way too superior to its sequel (chronologically prequel) Silence of the Lambs....true had swept the Oscars unlike this one...but the potrayal of the characters was PERFECT....I'm starting to watch quite a number of Edward Norton's movies and he is of the Kevin Spacey class....choice of screenplay "Dead - On"....doesn't mess around with some stupid movies....and if Anthony Hopkins as Hannibal Lecter was voted the "villain of the century"....it is for a reason....the movie's haunting and scarier than a regular horror flick....and though the clues were right out there...u had to wait till the last scene to unfurl them.....Chilling movie.....The one thing left is to read through the novels....but I doubt doing it....I have never had the patience to complete one......movies are far too interesting.....had to rush through a lot of technical journals to start on this MEMS project.....but blogging has been addictive..that's speaking in a mild tone.....;-)
