Emotions in humans are something that differs from one person to another, when expressed. But each person goes through every emotion one time or the other in his/her life.

Here is a good read on the concept of "Emotional Ecology".

Review: "Atithi" [Kannada Movie]

I watched "Atithi" yesterday. It is a Kannada Movie on the subject of terrorism. It portrays the conversion of an educated man, who has strayed onto the path of terror, to a path that is humane.

There are English subtitles. Watch for scenic Malnad region and excellent performances.

Cast : Prakash Rai, Baby Raksha, Dattatreya
Music : V. Manohar
Direction : P Sheshadri
English Subtitles - 90 Minutes

Funny TV Quotes

Why is creating life under any conditions whatsoever so applauded when there are already millions of unwanted kids around the world? And Angelina Jolie can't save them all! In fact, somebody has got to tell this chick that sometimes when you go to a foreign country, it's okay just to bring home a tee-shirt.

"Chef", please don't leave

Isaac Hayes Leaves South Park

South Park has never spared anyone wrt religion. Now that the SP creators want to go back behind Scientology, the loving "CHEF" has taken offense and is leaving. What is with Scientology?

It will never be the same without Chef on the show.

What else is happening in New Delhi?

Apart from being the rape capital of India, look at this new trend of married couples framing their elderly parents with dowry cases, to part with their wealth and live seperately.

I know materialism is glamorous and fun. But is our metropolitan culture deteriorating, ever since our forefathers migrated to urban settings from rural culture-rich settings?

Here is the read:
Couples framing parents with dowry

Kudos to Delhi Police for having gone to the bottom of these charges.

Well, then there was the MMS case....

My sweet old Bangalore

The once laid-back sleepy town has been encroached by technology, traffic and outsiders. The days are long gone when between 9am and 11am on Sunday, the roads would go empty, because Doordarshan was either airing "Ramayan" or "Mahabharat". Religion, caste, creed or language did not come in the way during this period, when everyone would watch these shows. This is what we call "UNITY IN DIVERSITY". I am told that during the airing of "Kaun Banega Karodhpati", the roads go empty. But I am sure it is not to the same extent as Ramayan/Mahabharat times of old.

I was explaining about DilKush and DilPasand to someone, that I had to search the web and found this great blog about Iyengar's Bakeries in Bangalore:
Fresh Puffs, DilKush and Little Nostalgia

What makes Bangalore special?
* DilKush/DilPasand or Congress?
* Ragi Muddhhe/Balls?
* Old times.
* Dr.Raj Annavru?
* Chinnaswamy Stadium?
* Avenue Road?
* Kalasipalya?
* Vidhana Soudha?
* Huttidhare Kannadanadal Huttabekku?
* Majestic?
* Chow-Chow Bath?
* Second/Third Helping of sambhar at xxx-Darshinis?

Truth about "Whole Foods"

I shop at Whole Foods once in a while, even though I prefer "Trader Joe's"

Here is an article that throws light on the fad created by Whole Foods.
Whole Foods

Some of the statements made by the article are true. But it is heartening to know that the employees are paid and treated well, UNLIKE Wal-Mart.

The other company that I know of, that is flourishing as well as the best pay to employees is COSTCO - courtesy, the generous founder/CEO who is down-to-earth. I read long ago that he is not listening to Wall Street which has repeatedly asked to lower the wages, to keep the balance sheet greener.

Review: Harold & Kumar Go To White Castle

I saw 'H&K Go To White Castle' last night on Encore. Man, this is one of the most hilarious movies I have seen, since "American Pie" and "Dead Man on Campus". Every minute of this movie is hilarious and well connected. Real Stoner Gem.

If you get an opportunity, rent it or see it on cable, with buddies!!!

It is not only me, look at what the movie buffs are saying:
