Quickie question: What is the difference between an oil barrel and a beer barrel?

Quickie answer to Quickie question: A beer barrel holds 31 gallons, and a barrel of oil holds 42 gallons.

Quickie answer to Quickie question, Beatzo version: Beer barrels hold beer, Oil barrels hold oil. D-uh!

In other words, the monthly K-Circle League quiz at St Francis saw Moi and Banana Singh get massacred beyond belief. Man, am I out of touch. Or was it the questions? Nope, I was out of touch, no second thoughts. A visual of Agatha Christie, I know it’s her, but no, I have to say it’s Dame Barbara Cartland. I don’t recognise Aung San Suu Ki. I don’t recognise Brigitte Bardot. I don’t know which company Dr Evil invested money in, in the Austin Powers movie. I suck.

Well, that was that.

Anyone who plays the “Surface Tension” level in Half-Life without getting his nerves shredded to pieces deserves to be called God. No, make that GOD in caps and bold.

Discovery of the day: I am a masochist. I met Vasu in the morning, learnt from him that Cradle 2 The Grave is lousy as hell, and just to learn how lousy a movie can get, I went right ahead and saw the movie. No, correction, I went right ahead and tried to see the movie. Jeezusmommawottapeesashite!!!! The only things I could make out included random usage of the word “stones”, “Taiwan”, “momma”, “mahn”, and a load of swish-thump-grunt sequences (Jet Li movie, boss, what else do you expect?)in Dolby. Walked out during the intermission, cos the Matrix Reloaded trailers and the X-Men 2 trailers got shown. Paisa vasool! I think I need to google search and figure out WHY the movie is called “Cradle 2 The Grave”, though. Might make a nice quiz question.

Hung around at Walden for sometime in the morning. Read half of Batman:Dark Victory there. The TPB is on sale for 800 Rupees. Must get it included in next month’s budget. Also, the Enter The Matrix game is out! Control, beatzo!

“Guns, lots of guns.” Wheeeeeeeee!!!!!!!

On an afterthought, here’s something I just dug out:
I know you’re out there. I can feel you now.
I know that you’re afraid… afraid of us.
You’re afraid of change. I don’t know the future.
I didn’t come here to tell you how this
is going to end. I came here to tell how
it’s going to begin. I’m going to hang up this
phone, and then show these people what
you don’t want them to see. I’m going to show
them a world without you. A world without
rules or controls, borders or boundaries.
A world where anything is possible. Where
we go from there is a choice I leave to you.

We wait and hope.

  1. Banana Singh ?

    Who is this Banana Singh dude ? I remember a raging controversy in quiznet about 3 years ago, over this guy. Is he for real ?

    • Re: Banana Singh ?

      He’s for real. I ought to know, because he’s my regular K-C partner. ;-)
      As for WHO he is, i will need to ask him – i think he intends it to be a secret. :-)

    • :-D

      Confession: That poem is not a poem:-P….the lines are the last words spoken in the Matrix movie, the part where Neo speaks into the phone. He then keeps the phone down, and walks out, with Rage Against The Machine’s “Wake Up” playing in the background, and then proceeds to fly away.

      That movie! That movie! Oh gosh, that movie!
