Wii Hurts

Don't get deceived by the heading. Wii is absolute fun, and is worth every penny I paid. When I said it hurts, I mean it hurts 'physically'. I have been playing tennis and boxing for a week, and my arm started aching already. No wonder that they have released this Wii Fit to workout. Though this is a revolutionary one when compared to its contemporary peers Xbox and PS, given the graphics and difficulty of the games, I very much think it may not attract advanced gamers. 

Yeh! right! it is for amateurs like me :)

The Daily Show

I love satire and I love The Daily Show. With so much anger and sadness about the Mumbai attack, when I was watching the show yesterday, I was little anxiously worried whether they would make any fun of that. Not that they have done anything in the past. But that was a legitimate worry of a fan.

To my joy, they came out well, ignoring the f-words and m-words, I liked the explanation of John Oliver, "when you're a bankrupt ideology pursuing a bankrupt strategy, the only move you've got is the dick one. "

I think Aasif Mandvi should have delivered this skit, it would have been more appropriate. He is an Indian American, was born in Mumbai and not to mention he is a Muslim. But I like John Oliver, as his delivery and british accent is more fun to watch.
