I am keeping myself away from trying to google Halloween before I write this down.. How much I didn't care for this event up till evening 7pm. I switched on the classics radio station in Cincinnati. Programming blew me away! This is how the violins sound the best. The coarseness in them, thumping pianos, hollow flutes, church bells, and not taking anything away from the presenter and their

plain pleasing and lovely My Mother's Coat (excerpt) from Moth on Vimeo. This film is about my Italian mother and her confessions about life in Greece.

All this has only made me more delusional. Lying on a bed 14,000 kms away from home, it suddenly struck me too. People have called this chill "the sinking feeling". Right when the lights were off and the laptop was out of my sight and I look up towards the ceiling. I have never been struck with this nostalgia before. Others have been palak paneer, lassi, indian supermarket in jersey city, paan

“What makes you think human beings are sentient and aware? There’s no evidence for it. Human beings never think for themselves, they find it too uncomfortable. For the most part, members of our species simply repeat what they are told—and become upset if they are exposed to any different view.

unlike other animals, humans are acutely aware of their own mortality and are terrified of death. But the study of cosmology gives us sense of timelessness, of being part of something much larger. The fact that your own personal life is finite is less frightening when you know you are part of evolving universe - an ever-unfolding drama.

I don't get it. Why is he crying? AK for some weird reason acts "vocal" Chaplin. SJ does what he does least best. MD is again wasted. BI overdoes it for very first time. The jokes are pale - starting with Astronaut pens. What followed first? AK Preaching or the Preaching script?? I wonder! What followed next? Vacuum pump driven suction pipe, web-camera driven delivery, car batteries driven

It's like a toofaan right in middle of perfect stillness. All there right there in my mind. This lead to me taking least interest on what was ever being taught!

The gates, the bells, the morning assembly, the teachers, the intervals, the vada paos,the PT, the Karate, the Scouts, the Nuisance, the mis-behaviours etc. I do not like to remember any of them now. My school had gates which opened to an over-flowing gutters when it rained, making it really hard to enter. My school

.. definitely looking forward to this. But only if they (the Yash rajs and Yash Chopras) keep away the stereotyped notions. No foreign locations, no promotional hip song, no gay jokes, no disco number, no item (either he or she) numbers, no great looking character beyond the demand of the character.. just keep it raw.. just let the sid wake up ! !

Delhi~6 and now Kaminey .. both the movies reached their 'The End' even before the 2nd half started. None had any more to suggest post the Intermission. Both these movies failed in keeping away the sense of 'déjà vu' .. been there seen that - gimme something new .. they ended up like a failed attempt to master all the characterizations and 'short bios', not that कि these characterizations and

How odd that it never struck me that beneath this unctuous ghee of compassion might lurk a supreme arrogance: for quietly I had believed I was superior, just for being able to feel all these things, just for being able to ask all those questions. It occurred to me that the kind of cushioning life had provided me- which gave me the freedom to think the way I did and live the way I'd
