You have to make drawings with the given characters. 'smoking ideas' and 'ode to the joker' were mine. go take a shot yourself.

Other random thoughts of the week. Only efficient systems will survive now; be it cars or whatever. Maruti Astar's fuel eff is an official figure of 19+ kpl. If you dont see too many of them right now, its only because buying a car in december ages the car by a year on paper compared to buying in Jan. So this car is a winner in coming years. Honda's new city is another winner- 16kpl and belts out 118hp! All systems indulging in excesses will be looking into the deep end of the gorge.

Here's why cooking makes a man a better man. Food is organic substance. Now you mix all this up (appropriately) on a controlled flame for a specific duration and what emerges is this... this work of art (at times) which doesn't take any sophistication to appreciate. this act of being able to convert this raw material; putting it through a process over a catalyst (flame), till it simmers, fries, roasts, boils and cooks and emerges, transforms, blossoms, evolves into something edible, enjoyable, energising, gives one the understanding of what it takes to add and understand the fuel of life.
Why food? well, its organic and makes it all the more interesting to understand; not a machine, process or a program that was man-made anyways so you grab a manual and figure things out in a minute. Its the same reason why raising children is considered more challenging than managing colleagues at work or mastering watercolors is more difficult than learning photoshop or taming a horse more daunting than getting the hang of a motorbike.

So come on now... put on that apron, and light up that flame.

life in technicolor

I see hope only in music now. If there is a harbinger of hope, a whisper at the end of this rat infested, mucky, fucked up tunnel, this is it; if it can bring any relief to my f**ked up state of mind and the larger clusterf**k we live in and irrelevant priorities.

Do watch 'The day the earth stood still'. It's what should happen now- give up to an authority that can handle things better, if we are so hell bent on screwing things up- or just not able to work towards environment sustainability in an effective way.
