~~ Comfortably Numb ~~: May 2008
http://kumar-palan.blogspot.com/2008_05_01_archive.html
Life (or something like it) through my lenses. Monday, May 19, 2008. Football, flying and the feeling of irony. Excuse the bad alliteration in the subject line, but its for want of a better phrase. 21st May, 2008, the biggest football match of this season in Europe will unfold. Mancheter United take on Chelsea FC. The 2 best English teams of today will fight out the highest trophy in Europe. Its already assured that an English club will be the Champion of the continent. Links to this post. That Air Franc...

~~ Comfortably Numb ~~: March 2008
http://kumar-palan.blogspot.com/2008_03_01_archive.html
Life (or something like it) through my lenses. Saturday, March 15, 2008. Of 'guilt at the stoppages' and megapixel rains. Its a nice sunday afternoon and you are just done with a family lunch. Then you get to your fav place in the drawing room and get glued to the television. It hasnt been a few minutes of visual joy, when the screen goes abruptly still! Much like the blue screen of death in Windows) And then there is a flash with the very familiar words:. Rukawat ke liye khed hai'. These were just a few...

~~ Comfortably Numb ~~: February 2009
http://kumar-palan.blogspot.com/2009_02_01_archive.html
Life (or something like it) through my lenses. Friday, February 27, 2009. This article on a prominent travel site did not surprise me a bit. I'd mentioned in the previous posts how there were 'Slum tours' being conducted in Mumbai. This one just reaffirms it and says,. Mumbai, and particularly its 175-acre shantytown Dharavi, are experiencing a boost in tourism.'. Slumdog Millionare is now in the league of masterpieces like. The Sound of Music. I'm wondering what we'd say to this. Links to this post.

~~ Comfortably Numb ~~: January 2009
http://kumar-palan.blogspot.com/2009_01_01_archive.html
Life (or something like it) through my lenses. Friday, January 30, 2009. Much has been said about Slumdog Millionare already. The movie is entertaining, yes. But is it extraordinary enough to sweep the oscars? I don’t think so. However, from a superiority point-of-view, I don’t think the movie should be a huge oscar winner. Even ARR who’s got 2 nominations, has done much more brilliant works compared with the mediocare soundtrack (by ARR standards). Links to this post. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Deshe B...

~~ Comfortably Numb ~~: December 2008
http://kumar-palan.blogspot.com/2008_12_01_archive.html
Life (or something like it) through my lenses. Tuesday, December 30, 2008. Year Two Thousand and Nine. So an eventful year comes to an end. So what was it be this time? Salzburg - the land of Mozart and the Von Trapps (remember the Sound of Music? After a good 3 days and a hugely overjoyed wife. We both are back to home, although not without a considerable hangover which (obviously) wants the vacations to never end. Its that time of the year. The aftereffects of too much beer. And you say instead. Politi...

Life (or something like it) through my lenses. Sunday, February 07, 2010. While I was away. Here's what the world was searching for. And must say we Indians need some image building exercise in the world. But hey, before you say either 'Holy shit' or 'We are like this only', the Western world is not spared from convenient stereotyping either. Here's what the world thinks about Les Français!

Life (or something like it) through my lenses. Wednesday, May 13, 2009. Tweeter ke do aage tweeter. Tweeter ke do peeche tweeter. Bad attempt at mixing Bollywood nostalgia. With a new internet phenomena and squeeze some humor out of it. But you can't blame a man for trying. Was around a good 18 months ago. And I had joined-in a year back or so, expecting this to be just one of those new jigs in the social networking wave. Suddenly, come 2009, Twitter is THE place to be! Now if you'd excuse me, I have to ...

~~ Comfortably Numb ~~: Why on Earth....
http://kumar-palan.blogspot.com/2009/06/why-on-earth.html
Life (or something like it) through my lenses. Friday, June 05, 2009. Are we killing the planet that keeps us alive in the first place? Global warming is not a myth anymore. Its wide-ranging effects are being seen everywhere, in form of melting glaciers, extreme temparature changes, floods, hurricanes, tsunamis, earthquakes and what not. It is true that we are cooking up our planet faster than we can imagine. So, on World Environment Day today, lets do our bit and try being better Earth-citizens. Is lice...
