Of Unrelated Geometry
This seems like a familiar place. Reminds me of my blog somewhat? Wonder what happened to it? Maybe it too fell on bad days ...poor thing...i can only sympathise with its author who must be busy earning his daily bread much like me. Trying to get more and more work squeezed out of his fatigued body, nay soul maybe.Ok enough of the oblique excuses, the last day has seen me stumble upon somethings that are worth propagating. First is a wonderful book of short stories titled "The Red Carpet" by Lavanya Sankaran. I have read just 2 of the stories in the book so far, but have been smitten by this lady's subtle wit and immaculate picturisation of the Bangalore youth and spirit. Lets hope the remaining stories too match up. The book was actually a worthy recommendation from a friend of mine, who we call Bib as a tribute to his clumsiness, when we got around to discussing why there werent too many books that had ever tried to capture the feel of living in Bangalore. Yup, i agree that not many would want to write about living in Bangalore today with its traffic and other monstrosities but there are a bunch of things that do give that city a whole lotta soul. The second would be these awesome radio shows that go by the name of Global DJ broadcasts that any self respecting trance fan should listen to. Just checkout the roster for the guest DJs on the show and you would know. Look up http://www.globaldjbroadcast.com/ for more details.
On an absolutely unrelated and tangential note, did anyone see this ( http://content-usa.cricinfo.com/columns/content/story/258516.html) . No no, forget the stories, just scroll down to the 2 nd pic and well ...ya ..pick your jaw back up. And yes that is Vinod Kambli with one of the hottest chics that i have seen in a long long time. Man, how the hell is it possible i have no clue, but that guy must have done something right in his lifetime.
And then you get to hear news like this (http://www.lse.co.uk/ShowbizNews.asp?Code=ZK44187L&headline=steve_irwin_killed_in_diving_tragedy) . The Crocodile Hunter is no more. Struck rather ironically by a sting ray and not a croc as would have been much more poetic. RIP steve. Animal Planet would not be the same without you.
