Ignorant Americans!!!



Cover Design: Jesse Alex

It has been long known fact that the Americans are so ignorant about the outside world. About how they are self-content with what they have and are proud about their country. I have no hard feelings against them. But it really annoys me when people pretend like they know everything when they do actually know nothing. So here is an incident I would like to present to you guys so all of you would know how ignorant the Americans are of the world around us.

The other day I was chatting with one of my chat friend. When she asked me if there is 'ALLTELL' connection in India. I told her we do have Airtel but not ALLTELL. To my surprise she showed surprise to know that ALLTELL was not in India. I asked her why was that. She told me its quite big in the America. I was like.. "Ok.. fine..." Next she asked me what service do I use? I politely answered her I use 'Vodafone' she was like... "Vodafone.. whats that... never heard bout it..?" I couldn't take it either... Vodafone is a major European brand with their presence over 40 countries worldwide.

Well its cool if she was ignorant about it... she kept bragging about it like... "I am an American why would I know an European brand..." and this freaked me out...
I thought I need to do a research and show her how ignorant she is... so here I go on to wikipedia and find info on ALLTELL and write to her this.

" Alltell is the fifth largest wireless telecommunications company in the United States, after AT&T Mobility, Verizon Wireless, Sprint Nextel, and T-Mobile with a revenue of US$ 8.8 Million." And she was like... Yeah... now thats what I am talking about...

Then I posted to her about
Vodafone,

Vodafone is a mobile network operator headquartered in Berkshire, England, UK. It is the largest mobile telecommunications network company in the world by turnover and has a market value of about £75 billion (June 2008). Vodafone currently has equity interests in 25 countries and Partner Networks (networks in which it has no equity stake) in a further 42 countries. She couldnt take this anymore.. and she wrote me that she hates me... he he he....

Pretty immature behavior.... but I realized.. how true the world is about Americans...

I Still Miss Dublin :'(

Design: Jesse Alex


Yes... Dublin the magical city!!! I spent 2 months in this beautiful city and its almost over a year now and I cant get her off my mind... I never expected my trip to be so amazing and wonderful. The Irish people were so warm and treated me like a King all thru my stay there. It was a wonderful experience.

There are some things that I miss a lot about Dublin:

1. Dublin City Centre


















2. Dun Laoghaire East & West Pier
















3. Dublin Bus & Train


















4. Dun Laoghaire Evangelical Church





















5. Guinness ( Though I don't booze)


















And a lot of my friends, the night life and a lot other visuals I can't put up on my blog as of now...
Hopefully I would do them some day soon... :)

Dark Knight Rocks!!!



Yesterday was Friendship Day... and have been getting all sorts of friendship messages from friends around. The day was pretty usual until afternoon when we left to watch the new Batman Movie - "The Dark Knight".

The movie rocked right from the beginning till the end. It wasn't those typical Batman Kid show... it was violent but thus far the best Batman movie ever. Christian Bale was damn good at it... as he was in the 'Batman Begins' but the best deal was the Joker... Heath Leadger at his best... he was incredible in this movie. SO far the best Joker in a Batman movie... really spooky and freaky...

Its really sad Heath is no more... we'll surely miss this amazing actor and the freaking Joker in the Batman movies in the future....
