Good One

Well was away from blog due to some reasons. But m back. Sharing with u all a humorous story that i had read some days back on net. ENJOY IT :-

The marketing director of Nescafe manages to arrange a meeting with the Pope at the Vatican.

After receiving the papal blessing, the Nescafe official whispers,' Your Eminence, I have some business to discuss. We at Nescafe have an offer for you. Nescafe is prepared to donate $100 million to the church if you change the Lord's Prayer from 'Give us this day our daily bread' to 'Give us this day our daily coffee'.

The Pope looks outraged and thunders, "That is impossible. The Prayer is the word of the Lord, It must not be changed." Well," says the Nescafe man somewhat chastened, "We anticipated your reluctance. For this reason, and the importance of the Lord's Prayer to all Catholics, we will increase our offer to $300 million. All we require is that you change the Lord's Prayer from 'Give us this day our daily bread' to 'Give us this day our daily coffee'."

Again, even more sternly, the Pope replies, "That, my son is impossible. For the prayer is the word of the Lord and it must not be changed."

Finally, the Nescafe director says, "Your Holiness, we at Nescafe respect your adherence to your faith, we realise that tradition is essential to your beliefs, we fully understand the importance of the word of the Lord ................but we do have one final offer. Please discuss it with your cardinals. We will donate $500 million to the great Catholic church if you would only change the Lord's Prayer from 'Give us this day our daily bread' to 'Give us this day our daily coffee'. Please, please consider it." And he leaves.

The next day the Pope convenes the College of Cardinals. "There is some Good news," he announces, "and some bad news ..... The good news is, he continues to a hushed assembly, ' that the Church will get $ 500
million."

"And what is the bad news, your Holiness?" asks a Cardinal.

"Sadly" says the Pope ,

"We would have to lose the Brittania account!!"

Some movie recomendations..............PART 1

As i had talkd in my previous post abt it, today the day has arrived for giving u(yes u people, u cant believe that. I know now a days charity has become obsolete :-) ) to enjoy these memorable movies. And there r lots of movies that i wud be recommending. Hence the topic has words PART 1. So here we go:

1. The Dark Knight:

Whenever i have watched super hero movies, the one thing that i have hated the most is that they try to hav comic element in them. I cant understand y is that being done. I m enjoying a terrific action sequence and the very next scene has some stupid joke being told upon. Now that spoils everything. The animosity between hero and villain doesnt look real. Thank GOD. we had BATMAN. Watch this movie for its sheer DARKNESS. U love the way things take place. Marvellous dialogues. Man, those dialogues deserve a place in philosophical books specially those by joker.

Became a nolan(the director) fan after watching this movie. But How can i not talk about the show stopper. YES HEATH LEDGER. A memorable performance for his last movie. He was 30 but made joker look like 40 something. Awesome acting by him. AT LEAST WATCH THIS MOVIE FOR HIS SAKE.

My Favourite Scene: Batman and joker talking in cellar.

2.The Prestige

Now i told u that i became nolan fan after watching the dark knight. But after watching this, he is in my list of favourite directors. What a MOVIE!!!!!!! No words to describe it. Its one of the most INTELLIGENT movies i have ever seen. The movie plays with the audience like anything. Like dark knight too, the movie has a philosophical background but told so commercially that no one can get bored.

The cast is superb. Christian Bale and Hugh Jackman play their part to perfection. But others also make this movie fantabulous by awesome performances. Do watch it. I mean just watch it. U will come to know only then.

Favourite Scene: There are many. This movie has loads of them.

3. A Beautiful Mind

I believe that russel crowe's best performance till date has been in this movie. The movie on the whole could hav bored u out but due to this man's performance u just r glued to the screen to see what happens next. Crowe plays the part so convincingly that u feel the pain he goes through in the movie. Ur heart goes out for him. An oscar deserving performance but dont know how these guys always find someone else to fill the place. WATCH IT.

Thats enough for this week. I wont be recommending as it may affect ur studies. Padhai bhi karo yaar. its exam time.

One more thing. I didnt mention any hindi movie bcos i feel u all must have seen the good ones. Thats y talking about english ones. Enjoy them.
