Lost



I have always been fascinated by space-time concepts of Albert Einstein. I really got a decent understanding of it by reading books by Stephen Hawking, Bertrand Russell and watching countless documentaries on PBS Nova and BBC Horizon.

When I actually started to watch the TV series Lost I thought it was a great thriller. Every episode was like watching a good movie and always left me guessing what's gonna happen next. I did not discover until after a while that the entire story line is based on time travel and relativity. I think its a wonderful story although I lost interest since season 5 was delayed. You can watch all the episodes in HD streaming at LOST. I liked most of the characters but Sawyer, Hugo and Ben are the best.

Radio Mirchi - Idhi Chala Hot Guru

I used to listen to radio a lot when I was back home, but completely forgot till Jaanu recently introduced me to Voice Vibes. Some of the RJ's are annoying with their silly talk but it is funny and informative for the most part. It does not work on Chrome yet, so I use IE. It runs in the background and I get all my chores/work done with excitement.

One Great Home Theatre System

I did a lot of research on how to set up home theater on a limited budget. Bose is the the name that everyone would think of when I say home theater or quality speakers but limited budget and Bose don't go together. Personally, I think they are very over prized. Other brands that offer home theater systems sound awful. So I decided to buy everything separately. I found great reviews for Onkyo receivers so I was looking for a mid range receiver and 607 fit my requirement. I ordered it from 6ave.com when they were running a promotion and I got it for 375$, I found the best home theater speakers for 300$ + 60$ shipping at Fluance.com I got the SXHTB+. Once the speakers opened up which took about a month I realized I din't even need a sub woofer. I was so impressed with the speakers that I wrote a review for them, which I never did in the past. I have been bragging about the set up every time I watch a good movie. My close friends have been the victims countless times now.

It did not stop there, I played with the toys for quite sometime and then got bored, I needed to quench my techie side so I got a PS3. I applied for a Sony PS3 card and they gave 150$ cash back on the purchase. I got other cash backs and offers and finally ended up with a great deal. I stream movies to my TV over the home wireless network now which is so great when you realize you don't need to get up from the couch to connect you laptop to TV and continue to browse the same websites and email for the millionth time.

I did not stop there, I wanted to stream every high quality video, audio through PS3 now. I downloaded PS3 media server and TVersity which are pretty neat. I get some DVD's from our community library and the PS3 1080p conversion had made all the difference. I got Metal Gear 4 Solid which I need to start playing to actually fulfill the purpose of me buying the PS3 but I got addicted to Dexter the TV series on Showtime.

Mirror of Sky

I had a dream, one fine day when I woke up and saw the sky I saw a mirror big enough to cover the whole sky!! I could see what ever I wished for in the sky, I could see the past, the present and future of you me and everyone I wanted. I did not use the power yet but I know I could use it. Strange enough I was in an island with friends, everyone of us were delighted and had a great time since its been eons since we all met, we played a strange game something like hide and seek and there were many stories to share among us, in the evening every one was drinking coconut water and telling their story, I was looking at the sky and watching what they were saying. Listening to their perspective of the story and actually seeing what happened made me feel weird. Although the dream might be only painted pictures and I tried to make sense out of it, I don't have the slightest clue of the theme of my dream. Can you try?

Twin Rovers

http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/nova/mars/program.html

Such a nice program on Twin Rovers. Although there were so many problems and issues, they made it look like sending a rocket is as easy as making an omelette. If I start counting I think we already sent more rockets than I made omlettes.

Pointless

I have been thinking about things that I do wrong after a lot of thinking. I think about what I thought wrong in the process of making the decision. But I haven't given much thought about things I do without thinking. I decided to think about these things because I observed that I don't think all the time. In fact, I see that the only time I really think is when I wake up a few times at work and before going to bed and if I get anytime to play. Everything else is routine or interacting/communicating with people. I am not sure how my thinking about things I do without thinking will be affected?? neither do I know why this part of me is a total mystery, I also do not know if I should really know this or not, if I know what I don't know, I want to know how things will be different, if you are still reading this and your head is not hurting then you either have a lot of spare time or you just like to be different.

Helpless in 4th Dimension

Since I saw the Tenth Dimension an year ago, I was thinking if it had any co-relation with higher states of mind? which I would like to experience.
