| A WELL-SPENT SUNDAY |
| Monday, November 28, 2005 |
Kribs No.1 made my day yesterday with a mega bloggers' meet i which some 50 odd people turned up.The meet was held at "Amethyst" in royapettah.The place is close to a popular fashion showroom whose name sounds like "Studio Sucks".
Met a lot of new people.Satyaprasad,Jaleel,VG,rakesh,sunil,My-three,akshay,quiz-king goach,...........(cant remember all the names)and old ones like somu,balaji,ravi,sophie,etc.
For details and photos click here and here.Like the previous bloggers' meet at YJ's(who didnt turn up yest) place,this one too was followed up with dinner at woodlands' drive-in.Scribbling pad somu dropped me home.Missed two VIPs---curses and lakshmipathi.

Now the serious stuff:
In the movie Sivakasi,Prakshraj sends away policemen, who come to his place because of some violence,stating that it was an intra-party fight.That's what has been going on in the Shiv Sena.Raj Tucker,Ball Tucker's nephew,is in a spat with his cousin Uddhav,who's Ball's son.The spat came soon after Shiv Sena lost the Malwan assembly election in konkan maharashtra.Now he has quit SS.SS has faced similar incidents in the past when Sanjay Nirupam and Narayan Rane quit the Sena following bitter terms with the supremo.These two are now in the congress and this has enabled congress to gain stronghold in the konkan region which was sena's strongpoint before the exit of Rane.It remains to be seen whether Raj Tucker joins the congress,which is waiting for him with betelleaves,bananas and manikchand gutkhas(vethalai,pazham and paakku).Such incidents are plain entertainment for a current-affairs-obsessed guy like me.But giving them exclusive coverage in news channels when one part of the country is reeling under floods caused by dambreaks,lake breaches and rains shows the priorities that news channels have set.Unfortunately what else can I do other than sit and watch such nonstop nonsense when CAS rules chennai?

Bihar is all set for a makeover thanks to Mr.Nutties kumar.No more helicopter campaigns.And do u notice the coincidence--the ex railway minister is the current bihar CM and the ex-bihar CM is the current railway minister. |
