Summer’s Here!
Not because it’s insanely hot but because it’s WrestleMania weekend. WrestleMania marks the beginning of summer in India. And if you think the IPL means summer’s here, then you’re just a jabroni.
4:30 am IST on Monday is WrestleMania 33. The Ultimate thrill ride. If you’re not a WWE fan, you’re probably not very hyped about it. But lemme tell you, there is no event in sports entertainment as big as WrestleMania. There’s a reason it’s called the Showcase of the Immortals and the Grandest stage of them all. I even love the video packages that precede a match, they’re beautifully edited and set to awesome songs.
I discover a lot of songs because of WWE. I need music, and I really need music when I’m exercising. Gym is agony but music makes it better. I realised only some types of songs feel right when working out, most of them rock or metal songs, most of them Metallica, AC/DC and Motörhead. I only like *some* Metallica and Motörhead songs though. I recently started listening to Clean Bandit and Fall Out Boy, both of which are nice but the *some* songs rule applies. That’s because I rarely buy entire albums. I like some singles of each band or artist, and those are the ones I get. My iTunes playlist has 500 odd songs of all sorts, a number I’d like to see increase.
Tuesday was the two year anniversary of the WEB. And don’t trust anyone tomorrow, it’s the first day of April.
Vacation Update:
My Godfather poster is here, and it’s classy. I still have to figure out where to put it though.
I’m also painting a mural in my room. It’s Tintin and Snowy! I’ve only done Snowy so far. He’s quite big actually, 16 by 14 inches. But he’s still a quarter of the size of his pal Tintin, who’s gonna be 3 feet tall. I’ll paint it too, maybe. I’ll keep you updated.
Tis, mate, was the Weekly Email Blast, Email 106. Happy Holidays !!!
