No one is bigger & hotter than the Law

No one is bigger & hotter than the Law

 
After reading this one, i am warning every lawyer at our good old uncle sam’s state, watch your back dude, m cuming for you with my stun gun and butterfly knife, m short of pocket money. Have you ever witnessed a case when an engineer whose just 2 years short(hopefully) of earning his first graduate degree, suddenly out of nowhere sais ‘Damn yaaar, chose the wrong option, i even liked black’.  If you havent, then m lettin out a lil secret, I am one.
The cover itself depicts, that these son of …(chalo leave it, i might get sued for that) earn so much, that every dog of the alley is just after them. This here , is quite an intiriguin piece of art,by the famous ‘The’ fame (you’ll notice he has a lot of ‘The’s’ in his titles) Mr Grisham. Now, its seems like its not only our titsy bitsy Mr Johar bettin his little pocket money on K’s nd stuff, or our Tilak Queen, Ms Unity but the world if quite full of such philosophers.
So it’s a deadly game of blackmail, nd there playin with him, and our hero here is quite a player himself ;) , you know what i mean. So it goes somethin like this, our little kid over here, did what people normally do in their school life(not in hindustan i mean), smoke pot, booze parties, girls nd all their hoppin activities. And suddenly in one of their small get togethers, a bang happens. A girl, who eats less and sleeps more ( with some one else that is)  gets nailed..nthinn unsual about that hun…ofcourse their is..she’s  raped guys(Scream). And guess who the couched belonged too…guess guess,..to our little hero over here aur kaun. But time moves on, people forget and they also move ON. After a while the hero suddenly reads somethinn like this ‘Satuatory Warning : Ciggratte Smokin is INjurious to health’ and he decided to be the good old Mama’s boy. Gets into the the top most law college in the world, and is one of those…top performers every firm has an eye on. To pay him somethinn in like 7 figures and earn in like what..10 no 11 figures. But, he wants to a samaj sevak BUT ( and a big one ie) we don want that do we, cummon we’re payin Rs 250 fr this, samaj sewaks don get hot,fair,sexy girls (Kamineys are exceptions). The girl is with rich, slogging, smart, Yale graduate. So, now we have the Ganda Uncle enter, with his little reviving the past session, he gets our Hero do what he wants him to do. Sell hot dogs, at a ever low price, at wall street, and try listening to lawyer chat, and pass confidential info, or at least somethinn like it.
In the whole journey, our hero here acts like a hero, thinks like a hero, sleeps like hero (oops..sry) and wins like a hero. Nothinn which is happening for the first time, and certainly..certainly not for the last time.
The book cannot be termed as a page turner but is just a lil time pass entertainer. A paisa vassool..in hindustanin bhasa..provided your buyin it from one of those red light book sellers. And if not ..the sorry fellas.i think the girl friends’s waitin and there’s a spot at CCD just about to get filled. After all we are not like our hero over here..who’s paid for everythinn he does from bathing to dating.
I wish i had been a lawyer, wud’ve sued my self for writin this crap..but isnt this a democracy were living in ;)
Chaow
