The past two days I was in Baroda (Vadodara) and of course I had to take a special leave from my diet and enjoy 7 cups (in 2 days) of what I consider the best icecream on planet earth; its a small shop called Natural Ice Cream (not to be confused with Natural’s — the […]

The other night we had a long discussion about the future of the country — Bumpy (our bassist) had some heartfelt issues stemming from a series of intense experiences of rioting and mob violence, seen from a window overlooking the scene. Saw the movie A Wednesday this afternoon, and it echoed many of the sentiments […]

Took off last week for a gruelling tour of the Northeast (shall post on this in a day or two); not knowing that Assam and Meghalaya don’t allow CDMA networks (security reasons!?!) — my Blackberry runs both CDMA and GSM but I had never bothered to install the SIM card — lazy!! So it was […]

It was an elaborate, hour-long aarti, and we offered laddoos to a very happy-looking Ganeshji 🙂 Then we went to court and actually got legally married at […]
