Writer's block!

Looks like I have this Writer's block goin on with me. Am not able to work on my novel since am not getting a good plot...and well a lotta other things are also occupying my mind rite now and it has now officially constituted the writer's block for me. (if ppl agree am a writer..then ys i have a writer's block.) Just read in the papers today about the freedom tower that they are gonna build where the WTC's used to be. It is supposed to be 1776 ft. tall and does that no. ring a bell??? no/ yes ,ok...it was this year, 1776 on july 4 that the american's got their independence and well what a time to announce it when july 4 th is around the corner?? rite now am reading a book called "After the world trade center" and the way the book has been written poses some intriguing questions. it is basically an art and design book, trying to get a perspective on the aftermath of the WTC's. well even my first novel is based on the events of 9/11.

Now this is strange gas prices are goin up in the US and well it means increase in fee, textbooks and almost everything. its high enuf u pay for one increase and well it triggers a chain reaction in increasing prices!

I watched a lotta indian movies these last few days...
Anniyan-Stinker! for all the hype given to the movie, it was a mess. it was a rip off frm tell me your dreams in the first place and then to add to it, it was made on the lines of gentleman and mostly indian. vikram's acting in one scene where he becomes on and off the character of anniyan and ambi in front of prakash raj is really good. I think that is the only best part abut the movie. the way he goes after sada the heroine when she says she has to bribe the authorities is so typical and cliche.

Parineeta and Paheli..well i didnt stay up to watch these movies but looks like parineeta is good..it ws too slow and well it put me to sleep....but it is one movie worth watching i guess.
but neways i didnt direct or make these movies so..i dont have the right to judge them but still i have the right to voice my opinion. and thas all am doin here. you on the other hand might have a totally different view abut the movie.

Roddick is a force to reckon with. Now this guy is gettin serious and trying to go places. I just hope for a final showdown betwn roddick and federer...and rain is playing a spoil sport. this happens every year at the wimbledon. lets just wait and watch! after all that is all we can do!
