Loin (oops Lion) in the Lion City

Looks like the irresistible Mr C will be in the lion city next week. These stupid Ajit jokes always pop into my head when I hear the word Lion for some reason. Except that he always used to pronounce Lion as Loin- which as you all know is something completely else.

Talking about Loins, one of my friends from Lo(i)ndon has gotten so enraged with recent inane comments on his inane blog that he has enabled comment moderation. So I guess we are now unable to post any comments on his blog unless these comments comply with his aka big brother's sensibilities.

Kinda takes the whole free out of free speech doesn't it?

An inspiring interview

Just finished reading the third part of this three part series of interviews. I have to say, it is one of those rare candid interviews which surprises you in terms of the simplicity of the interviewee and of his responses. And yet, it blows you away and inspires you on some level.

Here are the links to all three parts. It's a must read-

Now we have Abhiwarya?

Conjugating names of celebrity couples is a passion of the tabloid press in the US and the UK. Brangelina and Tomkat being the most popular ones.

And now, the very very original Indian media has come up with Abhiwarya. Very Noice as Borat would say. Very very noice.

PS: I had the misfortune of seeing Borat last weekend. Despite it winning a golden globe, I have to say that it was a little over the top in terms of tastelessness. (And as all of you know, yours truly is not the most tasteful person around).
