father_sphinx and Sandman in Delhi

Friday, April 27th, 2007

They aren’t strangers to regulars here. The duo in the title are now in Delhi. From their blog post “Delhi tlanga“, Delhi Ahoy!!! , I learned they were on the same flight. Father and Sandman, do well in Delhi.

I hate to imagine where Sandman would regularly show up in Delhi :-)

A common misconception about this song from Linkin Park is it was written by Chester becuase of his history of sexual abuse and drug use. The truth is that Mike Shinoda had been working on the song since 1997.

However Mike Shinoda couldn’t finish the song. Co-written with Chester, it was released a single in 2004. It took Chester quite sometime to perform the song live because the songs reminds him so much of past memories and would always bring him to tears.

There is this story of mine which is becoming “Breaking the habbit” for me. I haven’t been able to finish for more than a year now. I tried once and wrote quite a lot. I deleted it by mistake. Hmmmm not meant to be told I said.

Something inpsired me to start again. I did and wrote some but still can’t complete till today.

Its about my memorable trip to Delhi, walking from Gurgaon to Delhi on foot not knowing where I was to go in Delhi not knowing if I was walking towards Delhi or away from Delhi. It was one hell of a night.

Mimi Renthlei – Hmangaih Vangin

Friday, April 27th, 2007

The video is not probably not new to you. Some facts you might not know – It’s her first music video and first single shot during pre-Tripwire days. The video was released in 2004.

Not just that. She composed the song herself, as early as 2000. Damn!

She ‘s been quiet for long. Come summer this year. Something got to happen. I heard.

The making of Masala Dosai

Thursday, April 26th, 2007


Chef making mosala dosai at the river island resort .

The first time I ever heard of Dosa was in 4th std. There was this lesson “The Weeping Princess”. It was about stamp collection. In the story they had dosa for breakfast. Our teacher Mrs Lasker explained “It’s a South Indian Food”. That was 1992.

For the first time in my life, I had dosa at a restaurant in Police Bazaar, Shillong. That was December of 1995.

Years later, since 1998, it has become a part of a regular food item for me. Till today.

Free Broadband?

Thursday, April 26th, 2007

NEW DELHI, APR 25: Not satisfied with implementing the OneIndia plan, wherein local and domestic long-distance phone call tariffs merged at Re 1, communications & IT minister Dayanidhi Maran is now looking at making broadband free.

What’s more, to arrest the declining rate of landline sales for BSNL and MTNL, the minister has also suggested that free landline phone could be offered to users with multiple mobile connections.
