It’s been yet another uneventful week again. Kerala presently is enjoying a pleasant climate throughout this month with incessant rain (but an unpleasant one for some though). I feel it’s just the best place to be on this planet Earth. Chennai on the other hand was getting hotter and hotter as the days passed before the rain Gods showed some mercy even here. It was completely hot and sultry. In fact, these two states are the neighboring states, yet, contrasting climate. It’s now the mid-June with the mercury level dipping drastically characterized by the unprecedented rain. It feels a lot better. Lying on the cosy couch, I wish I had more sleeping hours dreaming about a lot of things but one reason leading to another denied me from enjoying a deep slumber. Ah, why should I fret over these petty things? I don’t give a damn.
Okay, with the IPL thing getting over I was quite sure the following weeks will be monotonous. So I went to the lending library and thought of getting a book. When I got there I wondered for quite some time deciding on which author I had to choose. Mario Puzo’s books struck my eyes. So I went for one of his works, not a famous one though. It was “Fools Die”. One look at the blurb, I thought that would be a good one. The first half was interesting but the second half wasn’t that good. Praises for that book highlighted only Mario Puzo could have written that. It was about gambling and I noticed the word ‘bullshit’ used innumerable times. Okay, no matter what words were used, that’s how they write the book. Finally, it left a bad taste in my mouth.
