An American Question
The thing about being asked if I’ve ever had pizza is that there is no way I can appear intelligent while answering. Ranks up there with do you have democracy back there in India?

1. Please dial 9 + 1 to dial an external line. 2. AT&T helpdesk is 1-800-744… Oooops!!!! 3. 2 policemen knocking on my door. This is why they shouldn’t have let me into the US unsupervised.

I think it takes only a special kind to understand that I want to see a Google street-view of a place I’ve already been to earlier in the day.

India considers banning Google Earth after... →
ruhi: igowen: Stupidity knows no bounds. I totally agree with the Indian Govt. in that high security areas should be blurred from Google Earth. Countries have the right to protest against what’s aired on this software. In fact, India and other countries should take such step against all online maps- Microsoft, Yahoo etc. Er..no! And if they want to, shouldn’t they be banning it in...

What a terrible terrible day. And it still hasn’t ended. Will things ever change. Or maybe they should after this. While they quell the fires.

Loved the CNN election day graphics and “that” touch screen. Waiting for our own Prannoy Roy, Vinod Dua and team to show ‘em how it’s done right when we go to the polls next year.

Waiting for aliens to appear so that Raj Thackeray can leave the Biharis and UPites alone. Maybe he will be abducted. He’s a good specimen of one extreme of mankind.

Got my driving license today. There are colors on the Karnataka license which can blind people.

91. Dear Don Draper, Do you have any views on men...
whatwoulddondraperdo: Yes, the same ones I have of men wearing brassieres. Lovely in-character blogging. One of them “Why didnt I think of this” things. And also reminds me that I still need to see Mad Men. The shame.

iPhone 3G prices in India
Rs. 31,000 for the 8GB. Rs. 36,000 for the 16 GB. No 3G available in India yet. No unlimited data plans. Vodafone has a 500 MB data limit with a fee of Rs. 5 per extra MB. (Just forget downloading them emails or youtube videos). By pricing them at 4 times their cost in the US, Apple + Vodafone/Airtel have proved that they dont have a clue or they want to position it as a...

The Olympics.
The olympics were always a big deal to me. Watching greg louganis almost break his skull on that diving board and yet walk away with a gold the next day. That performance by Mary lou retton in “84. Ali lighting the cauldron in Atlanta. Ben johnson getting caught. Did zola budd actually trip mary decker. And then as i grew up, I realised how much we suck at this. A bronze or a silver every...

Saw Indy 4 last night. What fun! Though, I wish they had a more bad-ass villain. And what is it with the Fonz being Indy’s son.

Swell Weekend =
1) After spending days on the phone with DishTV trying to get them to come down and take a look at how their seedy service is not working, I finally fixed it myself (with lots of help from the Wife, of course!), 2 hours before ManUtd had to beat Wigan in the last fixture of the season to be Champions again. They did! 2) Watching Chelsea choke to a draw in their last game.  3) Winning the football...

Cafe Mocha in Noida used to be my favorite cafe when i lived in the “naarth” some years back.  Ferozi blue walls, mahogany furniture from jodhpur, the best of world-lounge music, morroccan themed interiors / attendants wearing red morroccan top hats, cidar flavoured sheeshas and lovely kenyan coffee.  Spent many lazy hours there. Went to the bangalore one this weekend, and was appalled...
