Woo Hoo! Everybody loves Sin City<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Can’t wait. Though it’s going to be some time before it releases in India. I am still undecided about whether to go the Kill Bill way and shed picture quality in favour of an early peek ( courtesy The Market ), or wait for the theatrical release in India. Probably it will be the former, because I can’t imagine it being screened uncut. Humph.<\/p>\n

For non-comic-book readers who have no clue about what on earth Sin City is, here’s the primer<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Prices of the Sin City comics, the original 32-page floppies that were released between 1991 and ’98, have soared on eBay. I remember seeing complete lots of the Sin City comics going for 80$ a year ago ( I bought the individual issues at below cover-price, my first 2fargon<\/a>-assisted eBay purchases. Did I tell you about the Frank Miller-autographed issue of Sin City: To Hell And Back #1<\/i>he got for me? ). Last I looked, complete lots are selling at about 300$. Man. <\/p>\n

Oh, and porcorosso<\/a>, I finally watched Porco Rosso<\/b> last night. I have a vague feeling that the Great Ghibli Gig has just begun. <\/p>\n

Before I go to sleep in the middle of the night, I put on the computer, and enqueue all the music files on the hard disk (the playlist time comes to about 312 days) on Winamp, put it on low volume. It’s an awesome feeling waking up in the middle of the night ( for a glass of water, or to pee, or just like that) and listening to the song that’s playing at the moment and trying to figure out who it is by. I put Winamp in shuffle mode, so when I go back to sleep – it’s fun guessing what the next song would be. <\/p>\n

It might sound funny, but I can’t sleep with the sound of running water, or a clock ticking louder than normal – but heavy metal playing loud is no problem at all.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
