On a personal note..

Whether people understand or not, I am behind Sarkozy speech on Burka. “The burka is not a sign of religion; it is a sign of subservience”, can’t be said better.

What's my fathers day present? "Up" the Movie, in 3-D!!! What I don't understand with Disney is, why make a cartoon movie with sad theme. Nemo, Toy Story, WALL-E and now Up. Man, I am all chocked up!!!

A great novel by Cho. In his own way, Cho gives an excellent narrative on Hinduism and Caste System. A must read.

Naming Stalin as deputy Chief Minister could be a blessing in disguise for Tamil Nadu. It is highly likely that the old crook won’t be around for the next election. Remember what happened when MGR passed away, each one had his/her own party within ADMK and they were lucky to come back as one unit. Stalin knows, that DMK faces a similar future. To come out on top he has to play his cards right. One such issue could be giving a corruption free government for the next 2 years or until we face election. So I would guess in addition, we would get some new roads, action on power cuts, new project for Chennai (I heard that he is already talking to Sheila Dikshit). Let’s see how it goes. But don’t get too cocky; it will be short lived…
