These are good times for the folks in the funerals business.

In the so-called richest country in the world USA, 1,000 people have died of Swine Flu.

Folks, given that the flu season is upon us, the terrible shortage of vaccines and the 75 million uninsured and underinsured people, you may expect more people to die in the weeks and months ahead.

Of the expected 120 million doses of the vaccine by mid-October, only 11 million are ready.

President Obama has now declared a national emergency that gives the government special powers to address the Swine Flu crisis.

The U.S. accounts for 20% of the worldwide toll of 5,000 people who have died of the Swine Flu.

It is the Land of Contradictions, the Land of Subtlety and Superstition, the Land of Wealth and Poverty, the Land of Splendor and Desolation, the Land of Plague and Famine, the Land of the Thug and the Poisoner, and of the Meek and the Patient, the Land of the Suttee, the Land of the Unreinstatable Widow, the Land where All Life is Holy, the Land of Cremation, the Land where the Vulture is a Grave and a Monument, the Land of the Multitudinous Gods; and if signs go on for anything, it is the Land of the Private Carriage.
- Mark Twain in Following the Equator Vol II, P.145-146

Just finished watching Taken, a high octane action film featuring Liam Neeson as the father of a kidnapped girl who rushes from L.A. to Paris to rescue her from sex traffickers.

Folks, no matter what others tell you this movie has only one actor in the whole movie.

And that is our retired CIA agent Bryan Mills (Liam Neeson). The rest are mere props.

While some desis have derisively referred to Taken as the story of a 60-year-old going about bashing young thugs, we gotta tell you Liam Neeson does a fairly decent job within the straitjacket of a B-grade script.

Now pour some scotch, relax in your La-Z-Boy and press the start button on your remote.

Before you know it, this fast-paced action film with car chases and all will be over.

Heck, you could do worse than watch Taken this weekend.

Not a good day for that desi hag Mira ‘Salaam Bombay’ Nair.

Folks, critics have brutally f*cked Mira’s latest movie Amelia Earhart.

Since you guys in India are unlikely to have heard of Amelia Earhart, here’s the Wiki profile of the extraordinary woman (for her times).

Here’s a sample of critics who have savaged Mira’s Amelia Earhart:

* Wall Street Journal:

The film struggles to stay aloft, and may soon vanish, like its namesake, without a trace.

* New York Times:

 Exasperatingly dull production.

* Time:

It leaves the odd impression of being merely a very long trailer for a film you’d actually love to see. Continue reading »

With the help of his Pakistani chamchas (puppets), the church-going Barack Obama and his Christian henchmen from Blackwater a.k.a. Xe Services have been quietly killing Muslims, sometimes as young as five-years-old, away from the public eye and without accountability.

The killings are happening through the use of CIA-operated unmanned Predator drone airplanes in Pakistan, according to an article in the latest issue of New Yorker (P.36-45, October 26, 2009).

While ostensibly targeted against terrorists, many times innocent Muslim men, women and children are caught by the Hellfire missiles fired by the CIA’s Predator drones.

According to the New Yorker:

[T]he number of drone strikes has risen dramatically since Obama became President. During the first nine and a half months in office, he has authorized as many CIA aerial attacks in Pakistan as George W. Bush did in his final three years in office. (P.37)

Estimates of the deaths from the 41 CIA missile strikes in Pakistan this year range from 328 to 538.

How many are innocent Muslims from this huge death toll is hard to estimate because Obama is operating the covert CIA program with little accountability.

But this is what Jane Mayer writing in the New Yorker has to say (by the way, Jane was on the Rachel Maddow show on MSNBC Thursday evening):

Critics say many of the victims have been innocent bystanders, including children. (P.37)

With an arsenal of over two hundred drones, Obama plans to expand this Muslims-killing machine by commissioning hundreds more (just in case you want your own Predator drone, the manufacturer is General Atomics Aeronautics Systems). Continue reading »

20% of Avatar Work Still Incomplete

The mailman brought us our latest issue of the New Yorker (Oct 26, 2009) yesterday.

And what do we find?

A huge, 13-page piece on James ‘Titanic’ Cameron and his upcoming 3D/2D movie Avatar, the director’s first movie in 12 years.

In production for over four years, the $230 million Avatar is scheduled to hit the screens on December 18.

Since it’s Cameron, expectations are sky-high with Avatar.

After all, at $1.8 billion Titanic is the highest grossing movie ever and Cameron’s older Terminator movies are the stuff of legend.

Set on distant Pandora, ‘a moon in the Alpha Centauri star system,’ Avatar is a science fiction love story that’ll be released in both 3D and 2D. Continue reading »
