A Tangled Yarn of Thoughts Being Unravelled…
Towel Art: The Marriott at Kochi really is living up to its name of customer delight. Barring the food and service, they leave you delightful little animals made with towels when they clean your room. Another young man named Pintu, quite like yesterday's Rinse the chef, is the creator of these animals. He has a... Continue Reading →
A bite of a salad sets the tone for a holiday...go figure!
in the middle of the night, you catch up on stuff you've recorded on tv for just such a situation. Red and I've been watching The Voice for a couple of weeks now. We usually end up watching movies or sitcoms and usually avoid the singing and dancing competitions but while surfing channels on a... Continue Reading →
2015 is about to come to a close and yet there were times it seemed to drag itself out unendingly! Biggest news from our side is that the brat is now in a big kids' school. He's only in first grade but he seems to be changing perceptibly in front of our eyes. He's learning... Continue Reading →
I went and saw Tamasha yesterday. And here's why I liked it: Deepika Padukone and Ranbir Kapoor work. Totally work. Their chemistry is palpable. Helps that Kapoor isn't an aging Khan and an actual contemporary of the lead actress; playing his own age. Corsica is beautiful. And the fact that they moved away from Capri... Continue Reading →

And while he no longer has the problem with his hearing that he did before, he is still prone to quite a bit of distractibility.

One lingering memory of Durga pujas at Barasat are the acoustic version of retro Hindi songs of Salil Choudhury playing in the neighborhood somewhere. Right from Yeh Kya Hua to O Sajna, Barkha Bahaar Aayi...they play them all. And it sounds just wonderful. Seeped in whispers of the years that've passed while trying to make... Continue Reading →
That CC is just me trying to be clever and semi-gloat because this is the 200th post on this blog *drum roll*. However if I was being very, very honest I would probably need to write a couple more to make it 200 original posts since I know I've reblogged (another author's) atleast one post...

I first blogged in 2005. Courtesy Red. When we met he asked me a couple of questions about my interests and what sort of things was I into; sadly my answer to most were no. And stoic man that he is, he never batted an eyelid at any of them. And still doesn't a decade... Continue Reading →
On an early morning drive to the airport, roughly 36 kms of thinking time, I realized the following: 1. Robert Palmer is very repetitive. And annoying. Addicted to Love is getting deleted from the playlist. 2. Morons, the real ones, are very consistent. Moronic all the time. All days of the week. Never take a... Continue Reading →
