Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening by Robert Frost
Whose woods these are I think I know.
His house is in the village, though;
He will not see me stopping here
To watch his woods fill up with snow.
My little horse must think it queer
To stop without a farmhouse near
Between the woods and frozen lake
The darkest evening of the year.

He gives his harness bells a shake
To ask if there is some mistake.
The only other sound's the sweep
Of easy wind and downy flake.
The woods are lovely, dark and deep,
But I have promises to keep,
And miles to go before I sleep,
And miles to go before I sleep....

ROAD LESS TRAVELED

Two roads diverged in a yellow wood
And sorry I could not travel both
And be one traveler, long I stood
And looked down one as far as I could
To where it bent in the undergrowth

Then took the other as just as fair
And having perhaps the better claim
Because it was grassy and wanted wear
Though as for that, the passing there
Had worn them really about the same

And both that morning equally lay
In leaves no step had trodden black
Oh, I kept the first for another day!
Yet, knowing how way leads onto way
I doubted if I should ever come back

I shall be telling this with a sigh
Somewhere ages and ages hence
Two roads diverged in a wood
And I took the one less traveled by
And that has made all the difference

Superstar

I found this extremely funny article about Superstar Rajni here.

I selected a few ones that I liked the most :).
  • Rajnikant is so fast, he can run around the world and punch himself in the back of the head.
  • Rajnikant doesn't wear a watch, HE decides what time it is.
  • Rajnikant's house has no doors, only walls that he walks through.
  • If you Google Search 'Rajnikant getting kicked'. you will generate zero results. It just doesn't happen.
  • It takes Rajnikant 20 minutes to watch 60 Minutes.
  • There are no weapons of mass destruction in Iraq; Rajnikant lives in Chennai.
  • Rajnikant once ate and entire bottle of sleeping pills. They made him blink.
  • The only things that run faster and longer than Rajnikant are his films.
  • Rajnikant's every step creates a mini whirlwind. Hurricane Katrina was the result of a morning jog.

An "Outlandish" deal !

Check this out folks: http://www.redplanetland.com/ct/store/home.asp

Its simply "out-of-the-world", a deal of ""cosmic" proportions !!, "un-earthly" is what I would call it. And if I act fast, I can save $10 and get 2 acres of land on Mars for only $34.00. I have one question for the enterprising realtors who are taking the rest of us for such a "galactic" ride: What happens if there is a dispute with my neigbour ? Are all legal disputes settled in the court of Mars ??.

On the flipside .. who knows.. with the way we are thrashing this planet ... the idea may not be so "far-fetched" at all ....

Intelligent Video Synthesis

You have to check out this new concept: http://animoto.com/. The idea is pretty darn neat ... Take a bunch of pictures (could be a link to Picasa etc.) and choose a music (upload your own if you'd like), and the service creates a video montage
of your pictures etc.

Neat idea, huh ?
