Pointless

It is official folks, i am going nowhere. I signed a new deal earlier today which will see me stay here for atleast another six months, not that i had another choice but just in case.

Since i have not done anything today, i intend to describe a certain Vir Das who happens to be a Tv anchor
and is bound to give Cyrus a run for his money if he decides to really step in. Who is he?

He happens to host a program called " News on the loose" and if you wish, you can download his serioulsy funny wisecracks from virdas.com. He describes his web site as just another site on the web. Now, that may not be humility at its best but considering the web sites of some of my peers,thats quite a statement especially since all that one gets to see on people's personal sites is their name popping out from everywhere and running about mindlessly.This amazing phenomenon is amazingly prevelant in every page, very much like the corruption involved in all of our government papers.

Moving on to the print media, all that we get to see nowadays are news related to the not so lucky toddlers who end up
either being trapped in a bore-well or in swirling sewer, courtesy open manholes.These may be heart-wrenching for the near and dear but are somewhat amusing for the indifferent ones mainly because of the way they are telecast by the electronic media.

Gone are the good old days where one crossed the road after looking either side, these are the days in which one should also add a completely new dimension ,for who knows when a boarding might come crashing down to relieve you of your senses.
