It is time for Laxman

 The Rams win in the Superbowl has to have Ramifications.  LoL.

I mean Hollywood now has all the brothers portrayed on the silver screen in their quest to make millions.

They have clearly boiled the ocean for mythical figures.

Superman, Batman (really?), Iron Man and even an Ant Man?

C'mon y'all.

Looking east we had myths too.  And our own ocean to boil. Famous one involved Ram, Laxman and Hanuman (sticking to the male dominated industry that we live in).

Gender identity was not an issue.  Even Simians were fair game.

Now when you look to what the studios in Los Angeles have been churning out over the last decade or two they seem to have missed the one bro that I am eager to promote.

Laxman.

As the name may suggest he is just chill.  As in lax.  Does not get perturbed by every explosion or rape or misdemeanor. But when Ram is in trouble he will step up.

So LA has to either buy a QB called Laxman or introduce a blockbuster of the ways of a bow and arrow toting dude in a sarong.

They even made a hit on Hanuman - just called it King Kong.

Of chocolates

I like chocolates. Godiva Dark with Almonds - not sure of the naked woman on the horse to be the icon of some choice cocoa based products but tastes good. Started in Belgium but now owned by some Turks. Cadburys - Fruit and Nut Milk Bars - awesome combination of dried fruit pieces along with a medley of nuts makes your toungue dance - started by a Brit now owen by Kraft USA. Lindt Hazelnut spheres - made by a Swiss confectioner are divine balls that melt in your mouth with a lingering nutty taste Ghirardelli Milk Crisp Squares - crunchy and light these milk squares are easy on the palate but pack some serious calories - all good I say! Originally founded by an Italian who moved around till he landed in SF Bay today also owned by the Swiss Lindt empire.

Columbia SC

 The Palmetto state.  One of the confederate kinds. History dating couple centuries back.  We visited the capital yet again this time to take in the SC State Museum. Occupying the former digs (literally remodeled) of an erstwhile cotton mill this structure is an amazing piece of reimagination.  Four floors of excitement for kids and young at heart alike. Located on the shores of the Congaree River formed when the Broad meets up with the Saluda River, this edifice is approx. 60 years old.  The front of the building has a more modern planetarium that was added about a decade ago.  The museum itself has different areas of interest segregated on each of its four floors. The first floor has gift shop and a diorama of some of the local geography including the swamps and the state beaches with audio guides to help understand what fauna thrives locally. The second floor is all about natural history and showcases animal kingdom that may have survived on this latitude millenia ago.  There are se

New England is gleaming in the fall

 This autumn the weather gods cooperated as we took a family trip in the northeast to see six states that qualify or makeup what is known colloquially in America as New England. Mass, Maine, Vermont, New Hampshire, Connecticut and Rhode Island (tiniest state in the union). The outing helped tally up the states we either lived in, visited or have worked in to 47. Guess which three have eluded this intrepid traveling family. Any rate the drive was all in about 1,800 miles and included some memorable geographic wonders or points of interest.  Easternmost part of state of Massachusetts being one.  Furthest drivable road east in Mass being another. Visit to all Ivy League schools (term harkens to a collegiate athletics conference and generally regarded as elite academic institutes of some repute worldwide) is another random bucket list item of which this trip afforded the chance to knock two more of the list.  Dartmouth in Hanover, NH and Brown (and its sister institute the RISD  - school f
