Happy or Sad

3 books read-

"The curious incident of the dog in the night time." - Read kekre's copy, which Ranchu had brought. So had to finish it at a stretch, cover to cover in 5 hours. It's unputtable.

"Invisible Monsters" - By chuck pahlunuik (spellliing?..) author of fight club. The style is like fight club, though i have only seen, not read FC. Maybe it's the content, but i did'nt like it.

"7 times 6 is 43" - kiran nagarkar's marathi novel translated into english. It's too good. Highly recommended.

Being a freelancer has it's ups and downs. Lot's of free time in the last 10 days. But problem is i can't decide if it's a up or a down. Very bittersweet, coz on one hand total freedom, lots of sleep, novels, t shirt paintings..etc..etc.. But no income :).

That's going to change today ...Confused if i should be happy or sad.

Wardrobe Malfunction Malattraction

Yes I know you want to see it. Here they are.

Happy, you must be, like everyone, from the media to the masses. Everyone likes to see someone (or shall we say something) else slip, and what better then a model.
A professional who uses his/her body.
Then why do people and the law prosecute a guy who sells MMS clips on ebay. Because it is illegal? The newspapers are smarter, as they get away with it, by placing appropriate blocks of black.

Is the actual "thing" more shameful than the whole episode?

People's reactions over the episode are being published. And the discussion is definitely not about the printability of the matter.

Some thing the models are actually attention mongers. Maybe some of them are. But then the whole thing is even more pathetic, as they have made puppets out of media and the people.

And even from a commercial point of view, one of the newspapers can position itself as Moral, by not printing it. And publicising that fact (of not printing it).
