BASHFUL THINKING OF A YOUTHFUL MIND. Thursday, March 26, 2009. Diamonds for Economically Challenged, Anyone? 1 Shell, Chevron and others should start making a poor person's version of gasoline [to be used with Nano]. 2 De Beers should start making poor person's diamond [we also have women to make happy, you know]. 3 Boeing and Airbus should seriously start making planes for poor persons [some of us have got bored with cars anyways]. 4 Central Banks should start printing poor person's money.

Old Gent's Tales: Where do I belong?
http://oldgentstales.blogspot.com/2010/02/where-do-i-belong.html
BASHFUL THINKING OF A YOUTHFUL MIND. Friday, February 05, 2010. Where do I belong? Marathi's and RUssians are already fighting over it. Kashmir ideal by I am supposed to be a Hindu! Punjab no way, they are already chasing out anyone who smells of Bihar. Bihar? Not a bad idea since I lived the first 16 years of my life there and my ancestors a few centuries from my mother's side. But Biharis always consider Bengalis as at best friendly aliens. So where do I go? It seems, India has no place for "Indians" -.

BASHFUL THINKING OF A YOUTHFUL MIND. Wednesday, August 26, 2009. Security Forces and Taj Mahal Hotel. Nah, I am not taking you back to that fateful day in November and write a rambling and critical note on the role of security forces on that fateful day. I am going to better than that and narrate two separate incidents. These are two separate incidents that seemed to be linked yet you cant pin-point the link. Why start a five star hotel?

Old Gent's Tales: Delhi Trafiic and Tata Salt
http://oldgentstales.blogspot.com/2009/11/delhi-trafiic-and-tata-salt.html
BASHFUL THINKING OF A YOUTHFUL MIND. Thursday, November 19, 2009. Delhi Trafiic and Tata Salt. 1 Allow pavements to be taken over by shopkeepers [unfortunately there are very few pavement dwellers in Delhi]. 2 Give a free hand to civil contractors by never focing them to clean up after themselves and allowing them to pile up materials on the roads. 3 Plan to build several flyovers and never complete them. The JC {T} generously praised the MCD for its insight and the value it brought to the partnerships a...

BASHFUL THINKING OF A YOUTHFUL MIND. Thursday, November 05, 2009. Poor, Their Lordships. For sometime now the RTI wallahs and the newspaper wallahs have been hell-bent upon forcing their lordships the High COurt and Supreme Court justices to reveal their assets - much like old directors harangue starlets to reveal their assets on screen. Oh what fun has it been to watch the terriers snap at the heels of their lordships forcing them to relent. But did something come out of it? Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

BASHFUL THINKING OF A YOUTHFUL MIND. Monday, January 19, 2009. Elections on the Net: Let’s Bring Politics to Internet! The first Chief Election Commissioner of India was a self-effacing bureaucrat Sukumar Sen of the Indian Civil Service. He served between 1950 and 1958 overseeing the first two general elections. Interestingly, he also served as the first election commissioner of Nepal and Sudan! As a postscript and from a narrow personal perspective, I may also add that “internet voting” will...
