At the Indian Coffee House in Trivandrum. Coming back to this place after almost 5 years, coffee, cutlets & omelette still tastes the same. nostalgia at its best.




Pod whating?

I had started a podcast sometime back circa July 2005. I know.....that was aeons ago, well to cut a long story shot, we (the new I) did one episode and somehow the podcast came to an abrupt end.

Now really thinking about reviving that podcast with some more clarity on my life. Hit me up on ideas of what you do not want to hear on my podcast and i will find a way to present those in an unexplainably difficult yet reasonably irrational sense to you. If you thought i wrote funny, wait till you hear me.

Life in Cambodia

It all started with a ride on a "motodup"(just a motorcycle) which we realised can carry 2, 3 or even 4 people easily!!!



Dinner by this wonderful hotel overlooking the Mekong river, and the presentation was something beautiful.





The savories on the street left a lot to be desired thought, with your pick of the platter from cockroaches to bugs, to wasps....talk about people here being bugged!



And finally back home in a "Tuk Tuk"

get a hand at your sixth sense

If you thought minority report was cool....you gotta see these moves, bringing technology into your personal space.....


Talk about specific requests!

Chennai on Steroids

Maybe thats too much of a tagline for Malaysia, but walking through Central Kuala Lumpur gives you a real hit of our very own chennai...


Getting to the Twin Towers 101

First of all you get to the twin towers atleast by 7 a.m. in the morning to get in a queue for a counter that opens at 8:40 a.m. In case you arrive later and expecially on a weekend, place yourself towards the end of the picture below!



Once you get the coupons, you are asked to pick any of the slots you like and are available...Get back at that assigned time and you get one of these...



Then a 3d presentation on the Petronas company, the people behind the Petronas Twin towers. You then enter an elevator that zips at 5 m/s thats covering the 41 floors to the skybridge in approximately 41 seconds....and the sky bridge....



Views from the Skybridge....







The twin towers in all their glory!!!!


The future is

discount airlines



I am waiting to board a flight to KL, Malaysia. Choice of airline Air Asia. Reason - dirt cheap! worth it?- every penny!
 
One of the problems i did not forsee was the long queues for the check-in, the recession may have hit, but  look at the air asia counter here at the bangkok airport and a glance at the half empty queues of the other airlines leads me to believe air asia is still in the air.
 
They do not allow u to get food on board and charge u for baggage, and extra is extra payment, u can pay to get  fav seat to board on priority (why? to run in and wait till every other guy gets on board? we are not exactly talking first class here!), or for a blanket....i am pretty much sure the next thing they are gonna charge me is for toilet paper coupled with a ban on bringing any personal tissues on board!
 
They still dont charge u fuel surcharges and i got a ticket from KL to BKK one-way for 800 baht...thats 24 us$!!! Cheap is the way to go in these times and people are choosing their option wisely.
 
Flight boarding......

Power of Dreams



We invite you to discover this inspirational metaphor that has helped impossible dreams come true.


Some neat inspirational short films from the original believer of the power of dreams.

Crash landing


BANGKOK, TH — A military report into the crash of a hard disk in Bangkok city limits on 9th Feb 2009 that killed one hard drive and lost tons of data in the process fails to yield conclusive evidence of a foreign hand involved in the attack.

The first warning signal was a similar crash in the month of March 2008 at Bangalore, India where thankfully under warranty the US made Macbook model of 2007's hard drive was replaced. 

The casing also apparently underwent some damage in the subsequent months after the replacement, which on a trip to San Jose,U.S.A,  the incumbent got replaced just 3 days before the warranty expired. The recent crash however throws suspicion towards the replacement of the replacement drive which has not survived a bare 10 months...

The latest diagnosis of the crash has experts pushing for yet another hard drive replacement which since now the aforementioned model being out of warranty,  would require green backs. This is yet another blow to the entire episode. We are awaiting further reports...
