Remember the post about the Cheetah cubs that I had gone to visit in St Louis Zoo? Here it is, at

Finally, thanks to a friend, I went and saw “Cheeni Kum”…and except for the really melodious music, and some very nice dialogue, I don’t really see what the fuss is about…I think audiences accept the romance between a 64 year old man and a 34 year old woman because Amitabh looks fit, and not 64 at all. And of course, Tabu is very beautiful and her face is so expressive (she is, I think, my favouritest actress.)I wonder what the reaction would have been if they had used a balding, paunchy hero…or if it had been a 64 year old woman and a 34 year old man….

I took my Toshiba to the Authorized Service Centre at Manipal Centre in Ulsoor….they said that there was a Rs.1000 inspection charge and probably I would have to pay Rs.24,000 for a new screen….

Weird problem, that would happen only to Ms. Murphy. On Thursday, we spent the entire day without any power. When the power came back, I decided to leave my laptop on while I went for my swim.
