Grit and guts
Bihar has never failed to fascinate me by the sheer grit and guts of its people.
Bihar is like its proletarian foodstuff - the litti.
Plain, no-nonsense, packed with punch, and down-to-earth.
Of course, you can dress it up in ghee and serve it with fine chicken curry and on a bed of pudina sauce...
but for all that .. it's still plain solid and sensible... and rustic

Cards no more
The other day
I happened
to walk into a bookstore
that used to stock
very interesting greeting cards.
The Store - Guy tells me... we don't stock cards no more
My eyebrtows hit my hairline in a big ???mark
SMS... he sighed... people use the SMS nowadays
the mobile killed the card store ....
and so has the snazzy 'free' e-greeting cards
Nothing compares to the feel of a REAL birthday card
or Easter Card in your hands
the rest still seems
rather ... CHEAP?
