S.O.T.O. Rants: June 2011
http://shinyontheoutside.blogspot.com/2011_06_01_archive.html
MY very own sounding board. Tuesday, June 28, 2011. Rant 84: A day in the life of body art. If you've ever walked into(/gate-crashed-because-you're-hungry) an Indian wedding, then apart from the great quantities of food, there is perhaps no other. Element that characterises our love for exuberance than dresses and accessories. Gold jewellery worn as if we've run short of dresses to cover ourselves, sarees sweeping around in a sea of red, and if it's a modern Indian/NRI type pphamilee waaley. The power to...

S.O.T.O. Rants: March 2014
http://shinyontheoutside.blogspot.com/2014_03_01_archive.html
MY very own sounding board. Saturday, March 29, 2014. Rant 95: Protesting protests. Today became an unusual day in Manchester United's history. A form of protest rarely envisioned, let alone seen, at Old Trafford. Called into question an appointment that was expected to be just a step short of "divine will". Slightly short of pointless. Were on the road to a "routine" wobbly win. The manner of the protest itself has been deemed "classless" by some quarters, this after protest organiser Wes Jones. Manches...

S.O.T.O. Rants: Rant 94: A radical slip of the tongue
http://shinyontheoutside.blogspot.com/2013/06/rant-94-radical-slip-of-tongue.html
MY very own sounding board. Wednesday, June 19, 2013. Rant 94: A radical slip of the tongue. Brett Lee once discovered to. His annoyance how bloody. Dangerous fielding on the. Ever watched a cricket match, and wondered which was the most important fielding position? But I'm talking about a position that is used only in certain periods of the match. Not always like a wicketkeeper, not always like point, perhaps, or even not as frequently as fine-leg. I'm talking about the slips. Budowa plot plastykowe na ...

S.O.T.O. Rants: April 2011
http://shinyontheoutside.blogspot.com/2011_04_01_archive.html
MY very own sounding board. Thursday, April 21, 2011. Rant 81: My love-hate relationship with Rain. When I was little, I hated rainy days. Absolutely did. For the simple reason that I was unable to go outside and play. Of course, this was back in the east-Indian city of Jamshedpur when the rainy season lasted no more than a month or so. But having spent the last four-and-a-half years in the south-western part of India - where rain accounts for half the number of seasons - it's much harder to ignore it.

S.O.T.O. Rants: January 2012
http://shinyontheoutside.blogspot.com/2012_01_01_archive.html
MY very own sounding board. Wednesday, January 18, 2012. Rant 89: The most important sportsman. At last, just as all hope was lost, the winning moment arrived as my team’s captain pulled off a spectacular strike to send the packed house into delirium. Sudhir Kumar Chaudhary (right). For thousands, a match is more than just a result. Days, sometimes entire lives, are based around following their team. Take the case of Sudhir Kumar Chaudhary, who was awared an honourary ticket for all of India̵...The f...

S.O.T.O. Rants: Rant 96: My Dynamic Shift
http://shinyontheoutside.blogspot.com/2014/05/rant-96-my-dynamic-shift.html
MY very own sounding board. Monday, May 26, 2014. Rant 96: My Dynamic Shift. It's hard to find ways to kill time sometimes, especially when you're unemployed (enforced). However, it gives ample time to experiment with different types of photography, as well as different types of post-processing. On a very bright and sunny day. Perhaps best to leave HDR for sunrise. Make you feel like they're describing marmite, "you either love it, or you detest it". I got some really nice feedback off Facebook as well!

MY very own sounding board. Saturday, July 2, 2011. Rant 85: Let's not forget. The elephant in the room called emotion. Nobody likes to be given a full dose of it. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Coming Out as an Atheist in Mississippi. Which religion is more anti-gay, Christianity or Islam?

S.O.T.O. Rants: Yorkshire De Tour - Part 1
http://shinyontheoutside.blogspot.com/2015/03/rant-98-york-de-tour-part-1.html
MY very own sounding board. Wednesday, March 11, 2015. Yorkshire De Tour - Part 1. Part 1: Sheffield Wednesday's nerves of steel. 7th February, 2015: Having found a rare Saturday off, I decided the best use of it would be to travel down to Sheffield. Yes, it is really travelling 'down' as Sheffield lies in South Yorkshire and was once the heartland of steel in the UK. Quite a nice city to start off this Yorkshire tour then, given my Jamshedpur. Which is attached to the station, and which was insanely busy.

S.O.T.O. Rants: August 2011
http://shinyontheoutside.blogspot.com/2011_08_01_archive.html
MY very own sounding board. Monday, August 29, 2011. Rant 88: I miss you. I am about to embark upon a new chapter in my life. It will take place in a foreign land. I will be taking on an educational challenge that will define my career, meeting new people, building on some acquaintances, and continuing a very special relationship. I cannot begin to describe how excited I am about this new chapter. (For brevity's sake, let's assume: I am excited). However, I will leave behind some incredible memories and:-.
