Thursday, June 25, 2009. Like Chandler Bing would say . "I KNEW IT! Now I'm not one to swear by statistics but this Businessweek article. On the most expensive cities on the world validates that feeling you have when you live here in Luanda . that Luanda is the most expensive city in the world! Yaay I'm happy to be here . after all its worth some bragging rights . no? Thank You Oscar for the pointer. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). View my complete profile. Wildlife in South Africa.

Thinking ...: July 2008
http://venkythinky.blogspot.com/2008_07_01_archive.html
Thursday, July 24, 2008. Absolute Batman . Hush! This is not about the movie (altho' I wish it was .). Have spent the last few evenings re-reading Batman-Hush. And I can not describe how much fun that has been . especially reading it in the DC Absolute. Kinda like the 'big-screen' version of a comic . with the slipcase, oversize pages and all the extras . Takes the experience to a whole new level . The large size does some justice to the phenomenal artwork of Jim Lee. Links to this post. Lakshmi Nursing ...

Thinking ...: Umeed-e-Sahar by Laal
http://venkythinky.blogspot.com/2009/06/umeed-e-sahar-by-laal.html
Thursday, June 25, 2009. Now I'm not sure how I stumbled across the song or the band but I'm glad I did. The first song I heard from the band Laal was titled "Maine Usse Yeh Kaha" - .very. intriguing lyrics - based on politics and governance - that piqued my curiosity and after some research I discovered that the band Laal is made up of a couple of Marxists (one is a Political Science lecturer and the other is an Economics grad student! And then the second song "Umeed-e-Sahar" . Wow. Laal - Super band,.

Thinking ...: Congratulations Pakistan
http://venkythinky.blogspot.com/2009/06/congratulations-pakistan.html
Monday, June 22, 2009. Very happy that Pakistan won the T20 World Cup 2009. I guess the country and the people needed this . a LOT. Congratulations to Sri Lanka as well. I pray and hope that these events are catalysts for a better future for both countries . in whatever manner possible. A long long time ago I would have looked at myself quite strangely for saying all this . I guess the old adage of wisdom and age is true after all - and about time some would say ;).

Thinking ...: Working for Retirement
http://venkythinky.blogspot.com/2009/06/working-for-retirement.html
Friday, June 26, 2009. Such a conundrum . work hard now so that you can retire peacefully . At first glance that may seem like a solid and clear target but it's not . you don't know how much you need to work (ergo money to save) . you just work till you HAVE to retire . primarily guided by the scale of age - 56/60/65 whatever the "policy" states! But you may have saved more than you needed to and then get hit by a bus on the first day of retirement . whaaat? So what is the solution you ask me? Have saved...

Thinking ...: Michael Jackson ... Gone to Soon!
http://venkythinky.blogspot.com/2009/06/michael-jackson-gone-to-soon.html
Friday, June 26, 2009. Michael Jackson . Gone to Soon! Blazing 'Cross The Evening Sky. Fading In The Twinkling Of An Eye. Like The Loss Of Sunlight. On A Cloudy Afternoon. Built Upon A Sandy Beach. Like A Perfect Flower. That Is Just Beyond Your Reach. Born To Amuse, To Inspire, To Delight. Dying With The Rising Of The Moon. Just like his song . he's gone too soon. I'm secretly hoping for a Kauffman'esque reappearance sometime soon . oh well . 8:55 AM, July 02, 2009. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

http://venkythinky.blogspot.com/2009/05/new-slideshows-and-point-to-ponder.html
Friday, May 29, 2009. New slideshows and a point to ponder. Have been wanting to write for a while now but . oh well . Performed some cursory cleanup on the blog . played around with slideshows in the right pane and added Saara's pics for all of you hounding me - look at this spot for newer pics as and when they roll (ha! Now for the point to ponder . . was generally pulling Mom's leg yesterday . asking her to define God - you know . almighty and all :). Try describing an electric shock to someone - yeap.
