OBAMA and OSAMA

Never, ever before in history (to the best of my knowledge) two opposite forces have name which rhymed so well to represent "yin and yang". This is like examples simplified by some super-natural forces/coincidence for us to understand.

I don't need to remind people again that how Osama was a comrade of americans, while fighting Russians to liberate Afghanistan, and so, was actually helped to reach at a position which helped him later to make his voices reach millions and join the war against his old allies. Which proves how seemingly opposite forces are bound together, inter-wined and interdependent in the natural world, giving rises to each other in turn. Just the same way how years of war all over keeps american economy running to be the worlds biggest economy.

And now after all these years, when the much hyped "change" is arrived in the face of Obama, Osama has reached a status when it is more important for USA to catch him, for not to stop his actions as the so called "Jihad" has already in the self energized fusion reaction, but just to keep there promise to his country men.

Today some weekly magazines are covered with the faces of both of them, with "will OBAMA can catch OSAMA" headlined. Well in my humble opinion we should just let him pass to an un-noticed and not so special death in his rocky pakistani adobe.

And, for Obama, i am waiting to see, is this is just one more american fairy tale or they (americans) have finally arrived, as after seeing this change i have a hope that "rome will not got to dust" this time.

My "Cenophobia"

I am feeling good today, as i finished one more great masterpiece, "The Great Indian Novel" i was reading for last 45 days. But it also brings back two problems i always feel after finishing every book.

First, what to read next? Now thats a really difficult question i comes across every time, i spend minutes standing between two doors of my cup board full of books collected for last eight years from second hand book shops. Why?, because every-time read a good book (which i always make sure to do by reading classics and highly recommended by distinguished people), i want to read something even more better than the last, something which makes my grey matter stir more than before. As you see i like my grey matter "stirred not shaken".

Second, to start this book in public place. As my favorite reading place is local train which i use to travel to my work place and back, that's where usually the first pages are turned. It's an awkward thing to start a book in train because, thou i have seen lots of reader who believe, like me, not too waste that time by nodding on the person next to you, or by reading advertisements on wall of the coach, but by making new sparks up there just like the ones happening up there between the bogie and the electric cables. But i have never seen some one starting a new book there. Never, never-ever in my life. And that's why i feel like i am on to something unspeakable. What i hate is the look on peoples face when they see me doing this. What do they think?, "bloody show offer, reading here to look like an intellectual" or they just hate to see me so comfortable in such a place as usually what i hear around is just people cursing the whole system (or the "hole" system). Thou its a really difficult place to be in, packed from all direction, with one hand holding over-head rods to support and book in second by the  spine of the book, which i read somewhere was the worst way to hold a book, no, not for me, but for the book (of course written by a bibliomaniac). But even worst than this place is when I am standing between two rows of seats and people sitting down looks at my book and then my face, which always makes me feel they are trying to see weather what i am reading matches my face or not. I bet if thats the case the only book which will match my face will be "Letters from the Penthouse", (no, i don't look like those hot blondes) .Thou i haven't read one yet but, hmmmm i should do it, sometime.

So my problem this time is that i want to start the famous Discovery of India by Jawaharlal Nehru, and to tell you the truth the edition i bought is really big in size even thou its a papeback. And i am sure the picture of Mr Nehru on the book will not match my bloody rowdy face.
