I had actually listened to this song before but i was in the midst of doing something else, so i didn’t quite tune in. Fortunately, i listened in today and i am glad i did
. A beautiful rendition of the Electric Sitar and what a wonderful way to start this Diwali! BTW, the song is called “Priority” and it is by “Niladri Kumar”
First it was the lack of inspiration and now its Diwali season. I am hoping to post regularly/more after Diwali.
BTW, all these lovely comics are by Blog Comics
Today is Blog Action Day where bloggers/sites around the world will publish, donate, or promote the issue of poverty.
As soon as i entered the house, a strange silence fell over me. It was as if i had become dumb all of a sudden. Nothing could prepare me for what i witnessed. Emotions were mixed and i simply did not know how to react.
It all started like as usual. A quick shower, a quick bite and race to the office before the early morning rush settled in. Just like everyday, i greeted him via a text message.
But today was a little bit different. He did not respond immediately like how he always does. I assumed he would be driving so the delay.
As i waited for his reply, i gradually settled down to the day’s work. I work in a very busy environment where every second counts and the boss watches like an eagle ready to pounce on the moment someone relaxes. As I started work, my mind kept wandering to the missing text message that should have been here almost an hour ago.
I am sucker for good music. In-fact music is one of my past times. When I am bored, angry, sad or happy, music is an integral part of me. I would even go to the extent of calling it as one of the best stress reliever (at-least personally). I listen to a lot of songs mostly alternative rock, electronic/dance, rock/metal and more…
Rather than creating a list of my favorite songs, I decided to take it one step further and create a site around the songs that I like and listen to regularly
.
So, without much boring talk, here it is: The Best Music Videos ![]()
I have just now started adding the songs to it, so there is not much. But soon, I should have most of my favorite songs in there. And if you want to add yours to the site, feel free to do so.![]()

You see, whenever Diwali is round the corner, my mind automatically makes me a kid once again. Its not about the sweets or the hyped up programs on the television. Its simply the firecrackers
. How much ever everyone talks about pollution (noise and smoke), I simply turn a deaf ear to that and get quite excited about bursting crackers.
Even when I was a kid, bursting crackers always excited me. And when I had to leave India for my masters in England, one thing I still missed was the crackers part. The food, the parties and people were all there. But it was simply the inability to fire-up a 10000 wala cracker that played the spoilsport ![]()
.
This is going to be my third year since my return to Chennai and I am already excited about Diwali ![]()

Now that public smoking has been banned in India, here something we can expect to see very soon.

Got this cartoon during a random search in big G. I hold no copyright to it.
The last few days has been kind of mixed in many ways. Right when I thought I shall start writing once again, my imagination and to an extent the little brain I had did the unthinkable. All the ideas and thoughts that were swarming inside just disappeared after a good night’s sleep.
It was as if my mind just became blank or as I am saying to myself, clear. No reason and absolutely no bloody excuse why this happened. So I did a quick search on big G and the solution was to keep writing more!
Ok, I have no idea what to write and I am stuck in-between this world and that world. Clueless of what to write I decided not to worry too much and just concentrate on other things. Even after a bit of shopping, movie and some late night parties nothing came up. Not even a little spark.
