This is what RazzmaN has to say about life. Part assertions, part conjecture and part criticism on any and all things that life has to throw at us - and a bit of sex factor too.

Ghost Rider Sucks Ass! (Eric Catrman Style)
Saw 'Ghost Rider' over the weekend. Wish I had'nt! As a child, I used to be a big fan of the comic book series, and was hoping that the movie would be sort of an X-Men'esque experience. I was wrong. Very Wrong!
The Story: When the motorcyclist Johnny Blaze finds that his father Barton Blaze has a terminal cancer, he accepts a pact with the Mephistopheles, giving his soul for the health of his beloved father. But the devil deceives him, and Barton dies in a motorcycle accident during an exhibition. Johnny leaves the carnival, his town, his friends and his girlfriend Roxanne. Years later Johnny Blaze becomes a famous motorcyclist, who risks his life in his shows, and he meets Roxanne again, now a TV reporter. However, Mephistopheles proposes Johnny to release his contract if he become the "Ghost Rider" and defeat his evil son Blackheart, who wants to possess one thousand evil souls and transform hell on earth.
Yeah I know it sounds good. The trailers looked good too. Unfortunately the movie isn't! The animation is good, but there's just something about a guy walking around with a flaming skull, flaming hands, all covered up in a leather biker jacket and blue jeans which simply doesn't cut it!!! Add to that the fact that he's got some lame-ass weirdo's for enemies. Sort of a cross between Vampires and Cartoons... 'Vamptoons'!
All they mostly do is bare their teeth to try and scare a flaming skull! What does the rider to in response, throw fireballs (read: snowball's except they're made of fire) onto them! wait wait... it get's better; the rider/flaming skull's mood are determined by the color of the flame on his head - much like a dog's mood is determined by his tail wagging/not wagging! And much like a puppy dog, the rider's got the female (love interest) petting his blue-flamed head! Incase you didn't know, a blue flame is supposed to be more intense (read: HOTTER) than an orange flame, but somehow in the movie it doesn't do smack to humans!
- Nicholas Cage
- Nicholas Cage with all the skin flamed off his bony self
- Nicholas Cage with that weird-ass haircut
- Nicholas Cage with the weird-ass Elvis impersonation
- The fucking blue flame thing!
Reason why Ghost Rider doesn't suck:
- Raquel Alessi (she's hot)

Black Snake Moan
I watched Black Snake Moan last night, and as funny as it sounds, there's just something about Samuel.L.Jackson singing the blues that rocks big time! That Christina Ricci's grown into a complete hottie!Premise: When divorced ex-musician Lazarus (Samuel L. Jackson) finds Rae (Christina Ricci) badly beaten by the side of the road, he brings her to his house and chains her to his radiator. Rae has been a wreck since her boyfriend (Justin Timberlake) went off to war, and has spent her time getting into fights and being taken advantage of by just about every man in town. Rae appears to be afflicted with a physical need for sex that no one can cure. As Lazarus watches Rae twitching with pain on his couch, he sees that the young woman’s only chance at redemption is in his hands.

All in all, the film manages to captivate you with it's fantastic blues soundtrack and somewhat bizarre premise, alongwith the acting skills of both Jackson and Ricci - finishing off with a somewhat predictable ending.

Sniff Sniff - The 'FF' syndrome
Sniff Sniff, Cough Cough... fucking flu!
Been popping Panadols like candy, taking steam as well as cough suppressants - but to no avail!
Workouts have been put on the backburner, although funnily enough, whenever I workout during flu, momentarily I feel a lot better; but then the effects begin to wear off and I end of feeling a lot worse.
Sitting in office because of a couple of meetings, otherwise would've been home having tea and watching '300' which I downloaded last night.

MS Office 2007
So I installed MS office '07 the other day. I was happy.
Just like IE7, the guys at Microsoft have finally figured out the value of tabs and customization.

MS Office '07 - totally new interface, a lot like IE7 i.e. all tabs and super customization. You can practically arrange all your commonly used commands in one single toolbar. Everything else is under multiple tabs for operational efficiency. Highly intuitive - though initially those used to older versions of MS Office might have problems location some of their commands, but once you're used to it... you'll never want to go back.

Oh, and they have skins too!
