My past week
I saw Shawshank Redemption, and it would sound strange if i mention I saw it twice in two days. It would sound even more strange that I had already seen it before I started watching it the first time couple days ago.
Not surprisingly, anyone will think I have got time to kill.. but I must mention it was not during office hours. At quarter to twelve.. I am about to sleep and I suddenly feel the urge to watch it.
"Get Busy Living or Get Busy Dying", hats off to Stephen King. Capturing the balance between hope and patience in life, it kept me high for few days now. There are so many great moments in that movie that I think theres not a single frame in the movie thats not great. I think am all set to write a review at IMDB now.
Also, past week, am listening a lot of MJ stuff. Am also posting the infamous Michael Jackson's moonwalker clip. When I was a kid, I used to listen to his music almost the whole day. I had all his music alums, but concert videos were not really accessible. It was only restricted to what the MTvs and the Vs used to show. Now, thanks to the net, I have this, think no other star in the world can do it like he does. Its almost magical. The classic moonwalking step and standing on the tip of his shoes... that ought to be genius...that guy was and will be the King of the Pop. Its really sad the guy has been implicated in child abuse cases. Cant really judge if he did it or not.. but if he can create music like he did.. and if he could dance like he did then he has to be God gifted and for such a person involved in this... only brings sadness.
Anyways... I hope that doesn't take away the credit for the magic that he created.. and am sharing the clip with you.
Wikipedia article on his biography click here.
Have a great day.

Warden, handing the Bible to Andy :
"I almost forgot, Hate to deprive you of this, Salvation Lies within."
and in the end, the day after Andy escaped, Andy leaves the same bible for warden to find in his safe and writes "Dear Warden, you were right. Salvation lay within"
Andy to Red in the library
Andy "The funny thing is.. on the outside.. I was an honest man, straight as an arrow. I had to come to prison to be a crook."
