Mayhem on the Boardwalk


This is the latest Prohibition cum  rat-a-tat-a-tat mini series to hit the small screen.


Packed with overwhelming violence, it is tight and does not do injustice to the liquor wars that flamed the eastern seaboard of the USA in the 1920s.



Helmed by the wizard of cinema magic, Martin Scorcese, this series is an on-going never-ending tale of Nucky Thompson who ruled with an iron fist and  handfuls  of cash for everyone from runners to the candidate for the US Presidency and his key staff.


Great series.


The fourth season will begin next month.


Watch it to savour the magic tale as played out by Steve Buscemi as Nucky and his horde of gun-toting villains.






Season of Grace;Season of Giving for X'mas and New Year 2013

Season of Goodwill and Kindness
Well, it's that time of the year again;

When we wish and pray for all dear and near, the very best of our love and affection;

It's that time of year when we pray for grace from our Father in Heaven;

To touch the lives; and reclaim good health of those who are in pain and in sickness;

Is that time of the year when we renew our bonds of friendship with loved ones;

When we forgive and forget all the misunderstandings that the world has brought upon us;

To recall the challenges that we overcame and recognize those yet to be overcome;

To all these close ones be they friends, relatives and even foes:

We wish them all goodwill among men and peace and blessings;

Merry X'mas and a joyous New Year 2013.

Amen.
