Uttery buttery delicious

Remember any of the fun filled hoarding, which gave you a sense of joy and made you laugh? I bet that out of ten times 5 times it would have been Amul’s hoarding.

Reviewed Bicentennial Man - Isaac Asimov

Is this the coming shape of future

The bicentennial man deals with the story of a robot that wants to become a man. Truly awe inspiring it deals in psychology of not only robots but also men. Strangely it seems very real.
