Blogging the RIS
I'm at the sky dome at around 3pm. Trying to blog a public event. Why did I choose this particular event? I don't know. Maybe because my favorite Cricketer and Politician, Imran Khan was going to be here?
In any case. This was certainly a freeking experience.
I was here yesterday as well, and stayed only for about an hour for the duration that Imran Khan was speaking.
I am currently dictographing the thing on my dictaphone. There were somethings that were good, some that were not so good. Was it worth the 40 bucks? I dunno.
I got Imran Khan's autograph on my Attendee's Pass. Which has NO Date, No time, No NOTHING. Its just a piece of paper, on which I wrote my own name. That's about it. Then I had Imran Khan auto graph it. I took a couple of digital images of him, but couldn't really talk to him. simply because the people were hurrying everyone. They didn't let me properly talk to him. And I think I was a little abrupt and loud and might have kind of startled him.
To me he was the only progressive, moderate and rational thinker/speaker in the forum, and was promptly ignored by the audience.
I'm not done with this one. I'm going to have more to say about this one. Where's that "dictaphone" of mine?
