Extraterrestrial

After completing "90 orbits around the sun", Sir Arthur C. Clarke passed away, today (19th March 2008) at his Colombo residence.

He was a science fiction autho... ... ... .. ~~!!

No, It's useless to write anything about himself/his biography here, because I'm not good enough to do so. If you have no idea about Sir Arthur ... oh great!, please comment here because you are from another planet.

I just wanted to publish this YouTube video, and if you have time(just 9mins and 3secs) please watch it. It's a video recorded on his 90th Birthday at his Colombo residence and here is some interesting excerpt.

"As I complete 90 orbits, I have no regrets and no personal ambitions. But if I may be allowed just three wishes, they will be these..,

Firstly, I would like to see some evidence of extraterrestrial life. I always believe that we are not alone in the universe. ... .... ... ...."

"Secondly, I would like to see is kick our current addiction to oil and adopt clean energy sources. ... ... .... ...."

"I will dearly wish to see last seen peace established in Sri Lanka as soon as possible. ... .... ... .... This is Arthur Clarke saying thank you and good bye from Colombo."

Writers' Strike Over..., Now What..?

Crap Warning ! ;) Read if you really don't have anything else to do.. ;)

Finally the Writers Guild of America Strike came to an end. Now what about our favorite shows.. ;) ?

Heroes :
No chance of seeing a new episodes till Fall (Oct 2008). too bad ah? :( Checkout Heroes episodes list on Wikipedia.

Prison Break :
Oh! What a Season .. ;) The Season 3 finale (hopefully) "The Art of the Deal" screwed up all the fans... and they must begin a new Season because there are lot of things to be fixed.. Specially Sara! ;)

According to Wikipedia there may be some future episodes of Season 3 ... but at the moment this Wiki page can't be trusted.. Because.., several days ago someone had updated the prioson break episodes list page on Wikipedia by adding the following information about a new episode of Season 3...


"The Messenger" Karyn Usher Greg Yaitanes April 2008 58
Michael learns more about Jason Lief and is contacted by a mysterious woman claiming to have pertinent information; Sucre is forced to make an uneasy alliance; Gretchen reveals a shocking secret, while Mahone has a revelation of his own.

Then the page was modified and above details had been removed. Today [24th Feb] the page was modified again and the episode is there.. (It may have been removed again at the time you are reading this if so check the page history.. ;) funny hehe).

Finally they MUST bring Sara back...

Well after watching the S 3 E 13 Sara's fans can still have a hope to see her back in the show. :)














If you want to do something to save her then here you go..
Save Sara Tancredi
Save the good Dr

Supernatural :
Supernatural fans have to wait until this April... see this Wiki page. till then I suggest you to watch "Terminator : The Sarah Connor Chronicles" :P

That's all and thanks for reading my crap! hehe :P

Enjoy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Another rocking season

[-- No spoilers --]

Just like all other Heroes fans, I was also ecstatic all over the day(25th). Though Heroes Season 2 released on 24th Sep, it was 25th for us, here Sri Lanka(GMT +5.30), due to the differences of time zones. Finally the legit series was in the air around 9A.M(GMT +5.30) on 25th.

This time it took me more than 4hrs to get Heroes downloaded, because of the lesser number of seeds. The playback time of the episode 1 is about 51mins. But I didn't feel that much time passing when I was watching it, because all of my sensors might be caught by the profound feeling of Heroes. ;) haha.

As usual this one was also an awesome episode with a 'wow' ending. And it is a great beginning of another great series. Get ready for another rocking season of Heroes. !!

If you are interest you can try this cool Google Desktop Gadget which brings show related details right on to your desktop, made by Benjamin. :)

Cheers!
