We are in touble?

The ombudsman reports that several prominent signs are now emerging that we may indeed be in trouble. 1. Porn industry has shut down .. filming new movies that is .. could portend other problems 2. People are hiding behind underwear by wearing them like masks 3. Certain people are using underwear to make bombs 4. Although beauty and value are in the eyes of the beholder it now costs the equivalent of a small car to purchase sneakers - perhaps that is a good alternative to ditch the car and just wear sneakers to walk but I doubt that.. 5. Thinking outside the box is becoming harder as there are way too many boxes piled high and deep to avoid being boxed in 6. An insider look comes standard with anything that is sold outside - for someone wanting to look from the outside in 7. Latest news indicates that the IN N OUT burger (talk about confusing the outside the bell crowd - Taco bell that is) chain may have bought unhealthy cows to the table thereby causing an exodus of all those that were planning to be IN for the long term There are discussions whether there is a more serious characters (cousins of the anopheles) lurking on the EAST NILE..assuming there are two Niles - have not heard confirmation from the Africans.. a predator drone has been sent out to scoop air samples..it was delayed due to the urgency of the mission to MARS, which sucked resources, since the cure for retarded behavior is assumed to be present on MARS..

On the go(zay masta) in Japan again

Cool cat the Japanese are Tokyo at dusk  My second visit to this land of the rising sun after almost a decade. Back then clearly I was wet behind the ears product manager and likely didn’t pay attention to all (efficient) things Japanese. But today I did and of course continue to be impressed. It is as much the obvious stuff like on time travel that is both clean and comfortable and all that which makes it possible. The impressive landmark and landscapes that these humans have put together despite their cramped (or because of it) surroundings and precarious geological conditions could amaze a novice architect among us. But it’s also the little things that someone had to think about which have a phenomenal impact on day to day lives that make the Japanese stand apart. Below are few random examples- 1. Providing a very fine machined wooden toothpick in every packet of wooden chopsticks. The said chapsticks are simply set on the To Go counter of any food vendor/ convenience store wher...

Presumptive Society

Today's world is hyper connected.  I am not so sure what it means but you hear it a lot.  It is probably hyper but not sure how connected it is.  Sugar (fermented or not) is available in many ways than before and so getting hyper is easy.  It is probably more a threat than cocaine since it is sold legally. And what is this connected stuff?  Most people I encounter seem disconnected from reality.  So going back to this assumption that we are connected there are subtle and no so subtle instances of how brands and companies and middle men try to portray someone - A linkedin profile for somebody working for X years at a place advertises to the connected network that so and so is CELEBRATING X years @ Such and Such Inc. Do we know if (s)he is celebrating or cringing?  Perhaps a better way to portray will be - So and So LASTED X years @ such & such inc. Then it exhorts the readership to go ahead and congratulate them for this lasting effe...

The Central State aka MP

Narmada river and site of Omkareshwar Indore Rajwada or palace of the Lady Holkar   Somewhat geographically centered in India is the hot landscape of MADHYA PRADESH. A region I had a faint memory of visiting as a young lad eons ago. Now in my (along with my best half) quest to get to know lands far and wide I got an opportunity to visit Indore city and surrounding areas in MP. It begins with an evening visit to a bustling old market selling native snacks both savory and sweet. It is the realm of jewelers who run night time street side restaurants once they close their primary operations at dusk. Think of it as desi style block party that I am told goes into wee hours of the morning. My impression was it is worth one visit.  The humid and hot ambience along with crush of humanity doesn’t make for a pleasant dining experience but the sheer variety of foods sort of makes up for it. From piping hot coconut filled fritters to oodles of milk based sweet confections, I gorged on item...
