Perhaps understanding is superior to belonging. When I find out, will first put it here. View my complete profile. In a silent way. Available: higher moral ground. Sunday, September 25, 2005. You can't seriously complain about peaceful protests - being free expression in most countries, and, in the US, an additional bill of rights thing. But they are unlikely to work with the current US government. Given that truth is just one wea. We define ourselves more by what we aren't than what we are. And if w...

Perhaps understanding is superior to belonging. When I find out, will first put it here. View my complete profile. In a silent way. Sunday, October 02, 2005. Available: higher moral ground. The outing of CIA covert operative Valerie Plame gets curiouser every few months. After Nicholas Kristof described Wilson’s findings in the New York Times. Soon after, a number of reporters got tipped off that Wilson wouldn’t have ever gone to Nigeria if it hadn’t been for the influence of his wife, a CIA operative.

You may not agree with what I have to say, but I will defend to the death my right to say it. Monday, August 27, 2001. He came off the street one rainy morning in August, three years ago. He was dripping wet, dirty and hungry. Instinctively, I was angry at the intrusion into my tiny little space, already crowded by three colleagues, four computers and a bunch of pesky mice with a taste for mouse cords. That day, I had only half my lunch. It’s strange, now that I think back about it. Except those two ...

Sometimes democracy can throw up some interesting stuff. If in doubt, check this. I wonder if someone like T N Padmanabhan. Who helped restore those statues before the Taliban came around, would have stood a chance if he was a candidate in the elections in Samangan - or even in Bamiyan. Posted by etranger @ 9:23 PM.

Full TP: What's more likely to kill you: A hernia or a terrorist?
http://fulltp.blogspot.com/2006/10/whats-more-likely-to-kill-you-hernia.html
You may not agree with what I have to say, but I will defend to the death my right to say it. Wednesday, October 04, 2006. What's more likely to kill you: A hernia or a terrorist? If you are in the US, your appendix is more likely to kill you than al-Qaeda. In a neat article, One Million Ways to Die. Wired extrapolates data from the last ten years to create a colour-coded chart of the threats US citizens face. Driving off the road. Posted by Ashok @ 4:32 AM. Comments: Post a Comment.

l'étranger: Survival strategies
http://thriceremoved.blogspot.com/2005/08/survival-strategies.html
Perhaps understanding is superior to belonging. When I find out, will first put it here. View my complete profile. In a silent way. Wednesday, August 31, 2005. I'm told it's a great thing to be a survivor - coming out ahead at any cost. But then, I'm told I'm merely indulging some romantic doubts. I've also been told that trying to remove onself with dignity is just another survival strategy. Or so I'd argue. Posted by etranger @ 3:19 AM.

You may not agree with what I have to say, but I will defend to the death my right to say it. Monday, October 16, 2006. At what point is a person dead? How much percentage of the world's water is contained in a cow? How does a perm work? Of all 19th-century politicians, who was most like Tony Blair? Posted by Ashok @ 6:15 AM.

You may not agree with what I have to say, but I will defend to the death my right to say it. Saturday, October 20, 2001. It was seven years ago. I was assigned to write an article for Mid-Day’s anniversary special on Bombay’s dancing bars. I had a sense of déjà vu Saturday as I watched a grainy print of Chandni Bar. There are two outstanding sequences in the film, though. Chandni Bar is worth watching, if only for those scenes. Is a dancer in Chandni Bar. Potya, a local gangster, takes a shine on he...
