at about 11.33am IST - Outlook Toaster pops up notifying of an email whose subject read "Michael Crichton passes away”. time froze; the second seemed to last forever. As the toaster begun fading away somehow gathered courage to click on it, Feroz was pointing me to a Wired magazine blog post.
disbelief struck ... this has to be a hoax! we were expecting a book this holiday season from him, not this news ... got to be a hoax. Read a few lines from the article... absolute disbelief... these wired guys are smoking something...
open www.michaelcrichton.com, and read the announcement... why do all good things have to end?
...as if the day wasn't sad enough already…
