			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>1. I fear water. I invariably manage to drown myself in swimming pools. To overcome fear I try to dip in the ocean or the pools, but fear overtakes my bravado.<br />
2. I’m highly conscious about the way I look. Sometime I take more time than a woman to dress up.<br />
3. I have read the worst of Harold Robbins even before I understood what sexuality was.<br />
4. I used to stammer and had an inferiority complex because of that. Maybe that’s the reason why I talk less.<br />
5. I never knew/used to speak in Hindi till I was 17, while I knew to read and write since I was 11. I always seem to understand languages that I have not heard earlier.<br />
6. I don’t feel pain when I bleed profusely. I have been hit on the head by a cement stone twice the size of a brick and have walked on with a grin.<br />
7. I have three tattoo’s each symbolizing Hinduism, Islam and Christianity, which I have flaunted only once on Anjuna Beach in Goa. This is for my belief that all religion is one and not for fashion. I’m going to have more done, which is for flaunting.<br />
8. I love all animals and scared of insects. I used to be frightened of bats when I was young as I was told that they would get inside my ears, but now I sort of find them cute.<br />
9. I’m sure I was dog in my earlier life. Or maybe a mutant<br />
10. I still am tongue tied when I have to talk to women.<br />
11. I’m too organized and prefer keeping things spotlessly clean for my own good that I piss of people. I can’t have lunch if I don’t bath and I don’t bath for more than once in a day.<br />
12. When I was young I used to recognize bikes and cars from the sound of their exhaust and engines, now I just guess we have too much noise.<br />
13. I still love day dreaming and can spend hour’s day dreaming even while at work.<br />
14. I’m paranoid about the dark and still extra cautious about locking doors before leaving home or before sleeping.<br />
15. I couldn’t ride a geared bike till about a year and half back while I have owned one for the last three years.<br />
16. I don’t get high fast, if I drink too much I don’t babble. I sleep. I very rarely puke.<br />
17. I wanted to be a Biophysicist after my graduation, influenced by Michael Crichton’s (R.I.P) Andromeda Strain. I now feel it would have been better if I had pursued my dream as I just read that the maximum salary is around $102,930.<br />
18. I once ate some rat poison thinking it was sugar. But didn’t eat too much of it for the necessary effects.<br />
19. I can still remember most of my childhood, but can’t remember much of what happened at college.<br />
20. I have watched the Lord of the Rings Trilogy at one single go for about 24 times. I can guess most of the dialogues and am still in awe of the movie every time I watch it. By the way I need to buy new DVD’s as the old ones are almost beaten to death by use.<br />
21. When I was young I somehow guessed that women make babies and they come out of holes in the navel, while I really couldn’t understand why men needed to have navels.<br />
22. I used to lie when I was young that I was born in Boston, I was of French descent and I came back to India to pursue school.<br />
23. When I was young I wanted to be relived of all the homework and exams and I thought college would change things. College reduced my work load of homework but still felt pathetic, I hoped working would make things better. Now as I have been working for the last 7 years I feel that I need to get back to college and re-pursue education.<br />
24. I wanted to become a commando in the Army and I decided dying is not a big deal when I was 13, after all you are just dead. Once I realized this I have been living life much more easily. But after my grand father passed away it has created such a huge void in my life that I think life is easier only for the dead. Because someone does miss you.<br />
25. I used to write well and my English was prim and proper when I was in school. Now look at all the points above and decide.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>A prettyling asked me this question &#8220;<span>what is your opinion about marrying a younger guy.<span>in general,</span><span>will it be a problem later,because</span><span> women tend to be more mature</span></span>&#8220;, well its not everyday that someone asks me for a &#8220;wise&#8221; opinion and women never ask a question &#8220;in general&#8221;, its always cliched.</p>
<p>So this was my &#8220;wise&#8221; answer : &#8220;I feel its a stupid reason for rejecting a guy if he is good.Anyway the girl dies as a sumangali, W<span>hat every woman yearns for&#8221;. She said &#8220;Yuck.So cliched.N<span>o Thank you.I will let him die first</span>&#8221; Then i said &#8220;Seriously, i think its a stupid criteria.Because <span>the major reason parents say is if you both stand next to each other she would look older.S</span><span>o what!!we have botox.Long live plastic surgery!!.I</span><span> think its more a social issue.Rather than anything else</span>&#8220;</span></p>
<p><span>I think that was a responsible answer and she thought maybe i would be better at</span><span> politics,which i refused, whose going to question a woman&#8217;s judgement anyway.</span></p>
<p><span>But my take is that there is really no biologically proven reason why a woman should not marry a younger man, yes the Demi Moore  and Ashton Kutcher types looks odd, but a year or so more here and there should&#8217;nt really matter as far the feelings are genuine and there is no malice involved.</span></p>
<p><span>I read somewhere that older women like younger men as they relive their younger days and feel a sense of liberty. It was also written that they feel much more in control as they don&#8217;t have anyone to boss around them.</span></p>
<p><span>The point is, age is not a criteria for any relationship. In this age of touch and go affairs and ever breaking relationships such a marriage must be appreciated.</span></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Finally, got &#8220;that&#8221; call to volunteer for Teach India (<a href="http://www.teach.timesofindia.com">www.teach.timesofindia.com</a>) almost 2 months after registering. Not bad considering the fact that there where more than 15000 volunteers from Bangalore(nee Bengaluru..ha..ha) and 5000 are being placed in the first round. Have been mapped to an NGO called Youth For Seva (<a href="http://www.youthforseva.org">www.youthforseva.org</a>) which was formed in April 2007 by a man who quit after spending 14 something years in the corporate world.</p>
<p>I was neatly suprised when i saw almost 300-400 people just for the Bansashankari and near by areas. More surprising was the fact that around 60-70 where college goers. Quite a number of experienced people where also present.</p>
<p>Should commend the effort of the Times guys, the initiative has grown in strength from Mumbai, Delhi,Kolkata and now Bangalore (if I&#8217;m right) with almost 50000 volunteers from all section of the &#8220;junta&#8221;. Quite a significant number of corporates have joined the bandwagon too.</p>
<p>What it all takes is just 2hrs of ones time for 12 weeks on the weekends. You could be good at anything, say Maths, Science any language or even dance. But what is more necessary is patience as we need to understand the short comings of these kids.</p>
<p>Anyway, if it helps the country 2hrs is quite less. But i have reason to belive that once volunteers do get into the groove they would find satisfaction and may want to continue as long as they can.</p>
<dt><span style="font-family:Times New Roman;"><em>For I was hungry and you gave me something to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you invited me in, I needed clothes and you clothed me, I was sick and you looked after me, I was in prison and you came to visit me . . .

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I really don&#8217;t know why i started on this post, I&#8217;m really direction less. I really don&#8217;t know how some people write books, its so tough to prolong your creative juices for 800 and more odd pages.</p>
<p>I suddenly realised I&#8217;m going through a <span style="text-decoration:line-through;">mid-wife</span>..Christ!!!..mid-life crisis.I just completed 6yrs of active professional life(so..yipeeeeee!!).Almost all,yes almost all women i know are married and none of them who isn&#8217;t married is 5&#8217;10&#8243; &amp; above or has light eyes(quite a precarious combination..aye??also as the sample size becomes minuscule when you look into my types its even more tougher).So mom decided to carry along a measuring tape and magnifying glass to check these up on every girl she likes.God save the world.</p>
<p>Then, buying lots of designer wear of late, some sexy,some just for the heck of it.I decided i need to make a movie. A super duper fun movie just like the Chennai 600028 types(maybe call it Chennai 600018?) with a wonderful down to earth story,super comedy, super music and the heroine will be Snigda(i think thats her name,actress in kannale kuthatha nee enna song from Anjathey).No prizes for guessing who the hero will be&#8230;</p>
<p>Getting too fed up with the corporate world, i&#8217;m itching to turn entrepreneur, especially a restaurateur.Playing lots of TT these days.I decided music, friends and family is life. Want more tattoos, more watches, more friends, more networking</p>

Iwouldn&#8217;t have expected anyone in the world other than the Honda guys to come up with something so wonderful. The latest commercial version of the only(as far as i know) hydrogen-cell powered passenger vehicle in the world, the new Honda FCX-Clarity. So whats good about this car?It runs on hydrogen, is a saloon and has 100kw of power.That is enough power to light up a whole street of houses for a day. And the only output is,WATER!!So, you can quench your thirst also.Bake the cake and eat it too..hmm <img src='http://s0.wp.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p> </p>
<p>And as per the site, it costs $600/month for a 3year period and on one tank runs to about 250miles(roughly 130kms), that&#8217;s cheap &amp; economical.Yes,its commercially available only in U.S of A, but what gives, they guzzle the most amount of gas in the world wide world.But are they going to get out of their MUV craze is anyone&#8217;s wild guess.i hope Arnie takes it more as a cause in California, at least the water vapor will provide relief from the drought, and with the money in there, everyone can afford it.</p>
<p>Honda has also gone a step ahead by inventing a home solution to make hydrogen,This is some sort of a backyard gas plant that will regenerate hydrogen from house waste and other sources. Considering the fact that hydrogen refuelling plants are not abundant, this to me is the invention of the century.</p>
<p>But the only worry is the safety of the hydrogen cells, i don&#8217;t think these cells are currently considered much safe for India sort of usage. The Honda guys have just bought India&#8217;s first hybrid car this month(Civic).The FCX will become a reality very soon.I hope the govt provides tax sops for such energy saving methods, as i don&#8217;t find any of the companies making them in India. The civic by the way costs 120% more as it bought down from the Japan(i think) plant as completely built kits.</p>
<p><a href="http://automobiles.honda.com/fcx-clarity/">http://automobiles.honda.com/fcx-clarity/</a></p>
<p>Let&#8217;s say this, such viable options are going to create less chances of war in the near future and the initiatives more so are from Japanese companies. As its written we don&#8217;t inherit the land from our forefathers, but we borrow it from our children..Peace!!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>This is something that i have wondered a lot of times when people tell me i talk less. Yes, i talk less, reason as below:</p>
<ul>
<li>im trying to find out if talking less avoids me from emancipating toxic gases into the atmosphere and help reduce global warming.</li>
<li>i really need to see if there is a 6th sense and if we can telecast our thoughts by just looking into each others eyes(like the movies where the lady &amp; the man talk across a crowded room by just looking at each others eyes)</li>
<li>im trying to find out if talking less really helps me in gaining weight &amp; analyse it against people who talk more and publish a thesis on this and win a Nobel peace price for making the whole world silent and peaceful.</li>
<li>since it makes me &#8220;reserved&#8221; im trying to find out how many coaches and berths i have and who has reserved me till date.</li>
</ul>
<p>Im somene who has always belived that you talk only when its necessary. Its suerly made me a good listener and i do know how much rubbish is said when you are loose mouthed.If its an interview i talk and there have been cases when i have been told to shut my mouth too(by a distinguished professor of XLRI in my selection interview).</p>
<p>The whole world if it talks less and does more would rather find itself in a much better place than it was.And by the way it is said he who speaks does not know &amp; he who knows does not speak.</p>
<p>So talk less, do more..</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I have been watching many movies of late and bought 4 DVD&#8217;s of some of the finest Hindi movies that i have heard of, but not seen. Thanks to moser baer these original DVD&#8217;s didn&#8217;t cost me a fortune.</p>
<p>Lets see, Sholay don&#8217;t have to comment on that movie..a known classic.</p>
<p>Jab We Met..will turn out to be a classic on the Dil Chahta Hai lines, the only movie till date that i liked of Kareena Kapoor.And it made sense in the movie, most of it was something that you could relate to.</p>
<p>Then Jaane Bhi Do Yaaron&#8230;rib-tickler, some of it is so silly, but highly practical and most of it is true even today.Khosla Ka Ghosla&#8230;another in you face movie with that sidey delhi humor and language, as again very relevant to the indian social situation.</p>
<p>The non-dvd one&#8217;s are to name a few, Woodstock Villa, need to appreciate the effort of the lead actors, very understated performance, nothing much in the story, but was pretty good indeed. Indiana Jones, the man never ceases to surprise me.I can&#8217;t imagine my dad doing those stunts!!</p>
<p>Iron Man and Speed Racer&#8230;just out of the comic books, Speed Racer was a visual treat, you can expect only the Wachowski Brothers(<a title="The Wachowski Brothers" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Wachowski_Brothers" target="_self">http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Wachowski_Brothers</a>) to pull off something like that.</p>
<p>Hmm&#8230;then the only tamil movie that i made in the last month or so was Yaaradi Nee Mohini, pretty good time pass, my admiration for Dhanush is constantly growing with each of his movie.</p>
<p>The rest of the hindi movies meanwhile where total, utter crap and not even worth spending costly key strokes and broken nails..till then ta..ta..</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>There is something about Delhi that makes you return back(its not the girls, but yes its one of the factors) to it again and again. As i keep saying &#8220;दिल्ली की हवा में कुछ है &#8221; There is a charm in the way the place is, the language, the raj age buildings, the cultural melange and the food.</p>
<p>But no, not the people. Maybe its the fact that they have been subordinated by more rulers than anywhere else in the country, the aggression, distrust and the disrespect to anything that&#8217;s not them self is an experience. Anyone would fleece you if they know that you are not one among them. And everything is quoted twice the price.</p>
<p>I&#8217;m not a fan of any paper that&#8217;s not the Hindu(typical tam bram of Chennai), the only two newspapers that I&#8217;m ok with is the telegraph and the TOI. The TOI as other nationalized newspapers has the same outlay and design. But the Delhi edition is a shocker. I have read it for something like 4-5 months at a stretch, the TOI has the unique distinction of having reported the most number of murder, rape, hit &amp; run and robbery in the first three pages than any other edition published out of Delhi.</p>
<p>Take for example the Aarushi case. The poor girl has been maligned to such an extent that if the murder ever knew this would lead to such a character assassination by the media, he/she would never have killed her. Its another fact that I still don&#8217;t trust the fact that her father would have killed her.I don&#8217;t know too much of the surgical jing-bangs, but common sense tells me a dental surgeon cannot be so precise with cutting open a throat with a scalpel with such precision. Even if he had done it, common sense again tells me that the neck has possibly the maximum flow of blood in the body and any incision would have showered him with blood. But again this is only me and my common sense, I could be wrong too. If this seriously is true, I will be  more scared of my dentist than the pain in the mouth.</p>
<p>A repeat was again the Neeraj Grover killing. The media has explained the whole process of his being made fresh human kheema<br />
(300 pieces, that bastard had the audacity to even count after he killed and the cops cross checked that too!!)and the physical intimacy of all the parties concerned in almost every article that it has published about the case. Its DISGUSTING!!The poor man is dead and some adult humans did a few things they normally do in normal circumstances(the circumstances where absolutely not normal here), why do you guys need to reiterate it again and again?</p>
<p>I remember when I was young, the only thing that I was taught to get my English better was to read the paper. I don&#8217;t think I would ever ask any of the next generation to this now. they would possibly learn more things unnecessary out of it. The media of today has breached the thin line of being the extended arm of the people and the law and has become more sensationalist and cheap thrill seekers. The Hindu and the Telegraph to my knowledge are the only saving grace.</p>
<p>And, if the above two parties are to be ever convicted of their crime, make sure that its death and kindly deliver the judgement fast . As its said judgment delayed is judgment denied.</p>
