  • Beauty with Brain Fry

    Saw the movie ‘Bheja Fry’ last weekend, and had a good laugh over the antics of vinay as bharat bhushan… and to lighten the mood further and have a laugh at D’s expense, i started this conversation
    Me: Imagine you having a husband like that
    D: that leaves little scope for imagination…
    until next time, ask and you shall receive 🙂
  • The Fast and the Curious

    There was a time when ads at the end of music casettes was the only way to listen to future music releases.. times have changed and a deluge of new media has ensured that nothing is kept a secret for long… and in any case, who wants to keep it a secret..
    with an audience that lives a fast paced life and devours content as if there’s no tomorrow, entities across the board from tv channels and radio stations to newspapers and internet are in a race with each other to get it to the audience first…
    and so we have the making of the movie, and if the ex mrs federline had her way, perhaps we might even see the making of the star in future..and maybe a little bit of this impatience and curiosity is rubbing on to our personal lives also – in the way we make and break relationships, and the way we deal with other people.
    and in all this, perhaps an important virtue is being lost – it used to be called patience, and is now kept in hiding for fear of contempt.

    until next time, quick, comment!! 🙂
  • All things nice

    Once upon a time, being nice was the way to be. These days, it pays to be nice… Wonder what the financial model will do to the system


    until next time, to each his own

  • Incorrigible

    when we walk into the store with a sign that says Flat-Discount-50% and ask to see the flat…

    until next time, did that fall flat? 🙂

  • Crossroads

    I guess there’s a connection between the post titled “Conformity” and this one… more or less ends at the samepoint…
    at many points in life, in fact at most, if not all points, there are crossroads, and we choose one path based on what we are and what we want to be, at that point of time.. a sort of constant game theory, if you will..the paths might turn out to be good or bad, and some paths also offer a correction mechanism, while some dont…we judge the outcome of the paths based on our sensibilities, and are also affected by the judgements of others.. some among us learn to discard the latter, whether this is an advancement, a sign of maturity is of course arguable.. assuming it is, this would be one level..
    while that goes on, theres another level being played, the venue being our minds… for we are after all humans, and with our objective tendencies, try to judge ourselves in comparison to others..
    i am wondering which of these levels is tougher to handle… and whether it is posible to build a coccoon which prevents any sort of comaprisons.. or is it forever going to be a battle of finding a balance between the greenery of the grass on the other side and the extent of greenery we allow it to bring on to our faces..
    until next time, some grass does make you high…
