Roadrunner

Monday, October 26th, 2009

Fellow blogger Dilip D’Souza’s third book is coming out in a few weeks from now. It is called, “Roadrunner: An Indian Quest in America”. Dilip blogs about it, here.

Update: The old theme is back :)
Don’t be surprised.
This blog has just gone through a successful upgrade. Apparently, the old theme is no longer supported and so what you see is the default Wordpress theme. Depending on my patience level, I might just have to get a new one or make the old [...]

Saturday, July 7th, 2007

There was a recent story on CNN-IBN about a murder in broad daylight in East Delhi. What was peculiar about it, from the journalism angle, is that they showed scenes of the dead body lying on the street. There was no panic situation (as there is, in times like a bomb blast) while the camera [...]
