Let me start with a note 'It was not great'!. Might be my expectations was high. But my expectations was set wrong becuase the context I had was its a science gallery for adults.It was more like an artistic expression of science to attract kids. Great palce for Mom's and Dad's to bring their sub 10 year olds. I really loved the 3-D globe. There was a show where the vibrations from deep within the earth was captured and visual representation was made in a hexagonal cylinder (pic: light streaks/noodles).One room was set up with motion sensers and lights, that tracked motion (pic:lights on floor).Other show was of a type of plastic that glowed when UV light fell on it (pic: blueeey--glow)

My Favorite TL's send off
I have been in the IT industry since 5 years,I have met people of all types. When i say all types i mean of "all types". Comming to Ireland I met the best of all types. His name is Christoper Moore.An absolute inspiration to me. I look up to this man, who is in the youth of old age yet does twice as much as a youth of youth age must do. There are a few things that i have decided to do in my future which will have the fine imprint of Chris on them.Worked with him for 7 months and thanks to the Global situation he had to leave us.He took us out to a pub where I had fun with some American vet students, and knocked myself out with just a two glasess of Wine. I am disgrace to the drunkard community.We later went to Dublin's finest Indian restaurant. We were welcomed with an idol of Nataraj and lord Ganesh. Had good north indian thali food and Chris enjoyed the macaril fish for starters. Finally as saying goes, good things dont last much. We bid our farewell to him. I definitely will miss seeing his shinny prescene (if you know what i mean :-) ) at work place.

The Gallery
What would a gear head like me do in a gallery, is the first thought that came to my mind when some one suggested that its a good place to visit.Checked the distance on g-maps and it's just a kilometer away.Took my bike and headed to the place.This is how far the non-exciting part of the story goes.Admission was free and the gallery was very very huge.So huge that one needs a map to get around inside the gallery.I have never been impressed by paintings so much. I spent 3 hours in there, till the guards had to show me the way out. There was Caravaggio master peices and some by W B yeats. French, Dutch,Spanish and fiinish paintaings. The was one painting dated to 1650 of an Indian girl.I was mesmerised by it. She was the most goergeous person i have seen. I spent 15 minuts in front of that painting alone.Some dated back to 1500's. Priceless and marvellous.No wonder some of them are close to 2 million Euros. I am definitely going back there!!!
I took a sneak pic somehow!

neighbours' cool wheelz


It was to my total surprise that i found these two hotties together. I could not beleive my eyes and some external penonemal force directed my bicycle towards these. The cycle with me upon it

THe Rolls Royce on another hand, i need not say anything about the majestic features of a King.

Lake View Terrace

Pretty different movie made in the back drop of the forest fires. Samule as usual gave an excellent preformance. Most of the movie one cannot decide who is the good guy and who is not. It does bring about the racial issues that still linger around in USA when Obama is contesting for the presidentship. The movie has a few silly bloopers that anyone can easily make out. Like a cop making arrangements for a theif to breakin to his neighbours house!!!come onnnn what are the odds!!!The take away from the movie, for me is that guys who are supposed to be good guys and who are menat to do good stuff need not be so and need not do so. So people watch out.You be the better judge of things.
