The Apple iPad.
I am starting to feel sorry I ever bought an apple product. Because now I am in the process of becoming an apple fanboy.
The first product I got from them was an Apple iPod then I got the iPhone and then I got the Apple TV and now I am looking to get the Apple iPad never mind the name.

Rashomon
Last weekend I wanted to see Rashomon a famous movie by the even more famous Japanese director Akira Kurosawa and the actor legend Toshiro Mifune. Found it in youtube!
The movie is about one story told from 4 different points of view. The viewer is left to deduce which of the stories is true. As life itself we may find many times contradictions between what some people claim and reality.
So what is real and what is fantasy and how people may twist reality to fit their own interests.
Here is the links

The movie is base on a short story called “In a Grove” by Ryūnosuke Akutagawa,
