I feel if it were not for the logos on their T-shirts, they would forget whom they are playing for anyway in the middle of a serious match.

Munnar is beautiful no doubt...but its kinda tip of the iceberg. Kerala has so much more to offer, that you will be surprised :)

Sweet! I have memories of Munnar, which I shall share here. Do bear with me while I babble.

Memory #1: Going to Munnar on a two-week long National Service Scheme volunteer camp. The excellent time playing football in the greenest thickest-cushioned ground ever. Cleaning horrible filthy ditches in various places in Munnar town and the whole panchayat. Listening to utterly boring speeches by the honourable panchayat members. Writing and presenting camp reports in the night. Carrying a lot of water to the camp canteen. Guess who was the best volunteer in that camp. :D

Memory #2: An exam season. One of the papers is suddenly postponed because death of a director in the college management. There're more of them waiting, but by 4:30pm someone had an idea to use the opportunity to pay Munnar a visit. By 5:30pm a bunch of souls are in Aluva bus stand. By 11:30pm all of them are in a cold Munnar street, shivering, without a place to stay and less than a quarter bottle of something or the other rum. Yours truly had less than ten rupees on him, besides the shirt and pair of pants that he was wearing at the time. :D

Thanks for listening. What I was trying to say is this: life would be utterly pointless without friends.

Munnar is a wonderful place. I went for vacation during Dec 2007 for a week (Munnar and Kumarakom). Both of us loved Munnar and wished we could have spent couple of days more there instead of Kumarakom.

We stayed in property called Club Mahindra Resorts .. very nice place.

Munnar is beautiful, Since I grew up in Kerala it was the closest getaway for our family. I havent been there after my undergrad, Rosh & I are planning to take our families for a weekend trip together to Munnar. I look forward to it.

Your pics bring back old memories. This one time I saw Karishma Kapoor, Govinda & Anupam Kher sitting in the lobby of a Munnar hotel.

Oh yes, read about them a while ago and found them very interesting indeed. Makes you wonder that even outside captchas, are we indeed part of some grand computer - what Douglas Adam has been saying all along ;-)

Have you seen recaptcha.com? I thought that was an interesting use of the armies of CAPTCHA cracking humans....

Ok once you are done cleaning, honest opinion about Delhi-6 music. Since I have been in extravagant mood to splurge - DevD/Oye Lucky Lucky Oye/Hazaron khwaishen aisi have been recent acquisition. So after reading this review - http://passionforcinema.com/delhi-6-music-roman... - I am biased. So your views are essential :) , knowing you I know you would have gone ahead with rahman purchase.

Re: Ghajini or how I shouldn’t have begun my new year

Govind — Tue, 20 Jan 2009 23:27:27 -0000

No watching Ghazini anytime soon expecially after seeing memento and carl nolan's ingenuity years ago. This one was no brainer. I would rather watch - Oye Lucky Lucky oye/DevD/The president is coming - on DVD off course. So waiting ...

I tried convincing in vain. In hindsight, I don't think I wanna risk a pulled muscle and kill the darling goose that lays this weekly golden egg. ;-)

(We're both gonna face the music, girl)
