Its funny how entrenched the feeling of worthlessness of women is in our culture. One'd expect that Kejriwal and Co. would at least be careful while giving a name to their party - Instead of something like "Aam Log Party" (Common People Party), they have named it "Aam Admi Party" (Common Man Party), without even realising it.

GNOME3 Reich

Dec. 14th, 2012 | 04:09 pm


Just added this at gnome-look.org. I'd been having a tough time customising Gnome3. When I looked around, it turned out that I wasn't alone. The cribbing at IgnorantGuru's blog sums it up.

Settling Down Girl II

Oct. 12th, 2012 | 10:24 pm
location: New Delhi, India
mood: bitchybitchy

The most amazing thing happened today. A chap I'm well acquainted with dropped in with the chap I've been working for (DJ San) to ask me to build a computer for him. While he was leaving, we bumped into my 'settling down girl', who I've moved back in with as "just friends", with perks of course. She seemed to be surprised to see my acquaintance, as was he to see her. The moment I stepped back in, she asked me how I know 'Dustin'! It turns out that this was the guy she dumped me for. It didn't work out for her so she asked me to move back in. Now that I know both sides of the story, I'm just too kicked! She had told him that I was staying at her place but she had broken up with me 'months ago'.
As for me not being "socially acceptable", tch, tch. This guy was a jailbird. Lol!

"Western" Music in the 1980's

Heck! Back in the '80s, in socialist India, the only way we could get new "Western" music was when someone you knew had someone abroad bring them recorded "Top of the Pops" or recorded FM radio!

Power Grid Failures in India

In a nation where mediocrity reigns supreme, in the age of complexity, criticality is the order of the day.
