Paris

I will be leaving for Paris this friday night and for the first time I feel horribly unprepared for the trip.

I am so ready to get lost in Paris.

This week's Newsweek is good. I liked the article on Palin more than the one in the previous week, though it did illicit some pretty strong views for elitism on my part, and I liked the Francis Fukuyama article on Reaganomics. Thought it summarised it pretty deftly. That's what I like about such journalism - i relish the clarity of expression, thought and articulation. Often incisive and at times provocative. It adds colour into an otherwise dull profession. This would never happen here though. This is the reason why I will not do political journalism in this country.

I'm supposed to be giving Shane bro my Being and Nothingness theory but I'm too tired to really mull over existentialist issues now. Will definitely post that up soon.

Meanwhile, all fingers crossed for the financial crisis!
