Admitting the reallity that we are strangers, is sometimes so nice.<BR/><BR/>Today is a strange day. Every single communication I had today with any human being has been clear and straight. I'm probably going to resolve something in my workplace because of that, I offered the MTNLwala some bribe ... straigth.. and it worked, I told a girl that she can do without me ... again in clear fashion, I told an old friend that he is a jerk and he reciprocated, and then this comment ... everything straight from the gut.Nikhilesh Ghushehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15787536658456120737noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6511169.post-1126888260934001642005-09-16T12:31:00.000-04:002005-09-16T12:31:00.000-04:00[Nikhilesh] Well, I am glad you bit the bullet (not in the Mangal Pandey way though) and decided to comment. Hopefully the deed will be repeated in the near future?<BR/><BR/>And I am doing quite well, thank you. Now even if I were not doing particularly well, I would have still said so. Apparently this is the stock answer one gives to strangers, and since the question was asked as one, I figured I should reply as one too :)Meghahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16424596181466853163noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6511169.post-1126495898847239522005-09-11T23:31:00.000-04:002005-09-11T23:31:00.000-04:00I wanted to really comment about something... but the shear number of other comments discourage me.. I refuse to comment here.<BR/><BR/>BTW how are you doing? Not that I know how your were doing earlier, but that's the whole point about asking that to "strangers" (Dont mind the univeral brotherhood crap). you never know what the hell can be the response.Nikhilesh Ghushehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15787536658456120737noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6511169.post-1126284775801955412005-09-09T12:52:00.000-04:002005-09-09T12:52:00.000-04:00[scorpigle] Oooh nice! Thankooo so much! I had no idea Films Division had a website and all!

Next time I find such gems, I shall promptly report them to you :)<BR/><BR/>There is more truth in your statement than you realize. I did successfully 'pull off' a saree when I was 10 :) It was everyone's fortune that it did not happen until 90% of the show was over and when I finally hopped, skipped and tripped my way out of it, I was half-way off stage. Of course, my dear dad armed with his camera, has preserved the moment for my grandchildren to laugh at :)Meghahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16424596181466853163noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6511169.post-1126115496891927552005-09-07T13:51:00.000-04:002005-09-07T13:51:00.000-04:00Great ! even I had a feeling that you would have caught hold of the clip :).<BR/> *special effects start* <BR/>You could have given me a link or something na :(. <BR/>*special effects stop*.<BR/><BR/>I am very happy today..just cuz I got to see that clip..lol.

But thankoo phir bhi. Awesome memories it brings back eh? I did a web search once for this song's lyrics and stumbled upon this video on some Indian Student Association website :) Too cool na? I promptly downloaded it, of course :)<BR/><BR/>I had once done a school dance-drama type thing on this song .. so besides all the TV memories this clip brought back, I also have memories of a 10-year old jumping around in circles on stage, singing <I>hind desh ke nivaasi</I> while desperately trying to keep her mom's saree from falling off her :) Sigh!Meghahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16424596181466853163noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6511169.post-1126104180159104322005-09-07T10:43:00.000-04:002005-09-07T10:43:00.000-04:00Yo !

Time to play catchup.<BR/><BR/>[Sriram] You are <I>contributing</I> to the cesspool. Well not just you, me too. Oh well, if I try to explain, I'll just add more waste matter to the aforementioned cesspool, so I'll stop :)<BR/><BR/>[Stuti] Ah, you are <I>thinking</I>! :) I am not usually in the habit of doing that, but I hear it is a most wonderful thing to do. And thank you. I function best when people don't take my words too seriously. All is well and good in my world once again :)<BR/><BR/>[nithyananda] Thank you! Keep dropping by! :)<BR/><BR/>[HWSNBF] Hmph! I am badnaamofied for no reason at all :)<BR/><BR/>[Standerby/Passerby] While I love a good discussion with diagonal points of view as much as you do, there is not much merit in everyone saying the same thing over and over again. So I will have to grudgingly take away your source of entertainment :) On a more serious note, I don't think there was a conflict in the first place. When two people actually have differing points of view, THAT is a conflict. This was more of a <I>misinterpretation</I>, IMNSHO :)<BR/><BR/>Interesting posts btw. Any reason why one doesn't blog anymore? And hello fellow-Beantowner!<BR/><BR/>[Prahalathan] Arrey, you shouldn't have removed the post. Just excerpting it would have been fine. But whatever you wish, it is your blog :) And a happy Blog Day to you too!<BR/><BR/>[karan] A-ha! Much cause for celebration that is! Awaiting the unveiling of the blog in the coming months. Yes I am the eternal optimist :) And me is happy to know that Gabby's blog is such a hit. She is my soul sister if ever there was one. We hope to run towards each other in slow motion one day, singing <I>yaadon ki baarat nikli hai dil ke dwaare</I> type family songs and all. Of course, if she reads this, she will probably cringe :)<BR/><BR/>[phatichar] Hello hello. HBDTYT! Haven't been inspired to write anything of late, but the deed shall soon be done! Good to see you around after a while! :)<BR/><BR/>[Sharanya] Ah, I feel better that the 'they are saying the same thing' has been noticed. Much thanks :) <BR/><BR/>Hmm .. singletons, blogs .. what next? Blogs about singletons perhaps? No no, pretend I did not say that, else history has a risk of repeating itself :)<BR/><BR/>[scorpigle] Too much action and drama happening in my life has resulted in no blogging at all. But coming soon .. to a blog near you :)<BR/><BR/>[Rajesh] Arghhhhhhh! Et tu!<BR/><BR/>Fine. Sigh. Will write. About time I wrote anyway. 55 words hm?

My somewhat eccentric Creative Director says, Bloggers will be the next Big thing after the Singletons! :)<BR/><BR/>You and Stuti seem to have a rather intriguing sort of debate going, though I suspect you are both saying the same thing! :)Sharanyahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06697615767958992551noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6511169.post-1125911229455464962005-09-05T05:07:00.000-04:002005-09-05T05:07:00.000-04:00Happy blog day (belated by now) to you megha ji.

Both of you have made tactical retreats so easily. I'm not trying to be a Shakuni-esque character attempting to fan the flames of discord (well, maybe just a little bit -- nothing like a bit of discord to bring a little edge to things, what? ;)) but there is something to be said for this clash. I have persistently failed to wrap my head around how the conflict between these twp views could be amicably resolved.<BR/><BR/>Here are links to two posts from my now defunct blog on this topic (be warned, it is completely devoid of Bollywood references and guilty of taking my own thoughts a little too seriously):<BR/>(1) <A HREF="http://linear_thoughts.blogspot.com/2004/12/amazings.html" REL="nofollow">The Amazings</A><BR/>(2) <A HREF="http://linear_thoughts.blogspot.com/2004/11/gattaca-1997.html" REL="nofollow"><BR/>Gattaca</A><BR/><BR/>- The StanderbyAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6511169.post-1125629395700472022005-09-01T22:49:00.000-04:002005-09-01T22:49:00.000-04:00oh, and i forgot.<BR/>[Megha] Oh greatly confusing one, a belated happy blog day :)Heh Hehhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00221367276532123230noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6511169.post-1125629281200185302005-09-01T22:48:00.000-04:002005-09-01T22:48:00.000-04:00No, No! You might think you have flogged the horse enough, but how can you be sure its dead?<BR/>@stuti.. the first line about your comment is interesting "its worse when some million people get all excited about discussing medicocrity?!"<BR/>If you looked at the number of comments that post on the great Cushion Kumar got, you would realise that people *love* talking about mediocrity. <BR/>And please, nobody give me ones about how 'Accha sila diya tuney mere pyaar ka' was anything but mediocre. Infact, it was *so* mediocre that it appeals to the ear in a 'once you hear it, the tune gets stuck in your mind' kind of way.Heh Hehhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00221367276532123230noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6511169.post-1125618283044038132005-09-01T19:44:00.000-04:002005-09-01T19:44:00.000-04:00happy Ogbl day!!!<BR/>nice work ! <BR/>keep ogbling...nithyanandahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07636843300256343118noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6511169.post-1125617934550200122005-09-01T19:38:00.000-04:002005-09-01T19:38:00.000-04:00Arrggh, its bad enough that I have an articulation problem. But, its worse when some million people get all excited about discussing medicocrity?! Hmmm.<BR/><BR/>Anyway, I am not the respresentative of the "Downtrodden Bloggers Club", and hopefully will not need to make a career out of it either! :) I was merely making an observation, which I thought was the purpose of commenting on Blogs?<BR/><BR/>And the 'subtle put down', was the previous post reference I am thinking. And don't worry, I am NOT giving you too much importance. There are only a handful of people who are handicapped by that quality with respect to my life.<BR/><BR/>And I have no clue who the Esha Deol Blogger is or the other names that you mention, but if you are Salman Khan, is cool. I personally think, he is bit of an ageing star, but generally seems well preseved!<BR/><BR/>Anyway in case you or the sundry others I see are offended, my profuse aplogies be accepted. If no offence taken then may I add, The Dullest Blog link was super cool! :)<BR/><BR/>Chillax!Stutihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11826095060668283017noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6511169.post-1125612466736982302005-09-01T18:07:00.000-04:002005-09-01T18:07:00.000-04:00I'm in a <I>cesspool</I>???
