I checked out the blogspot pages...
What I saw...

Princess Kimberley

Absolutely Nothing in here...Apart from the heading Princess Kimberley and a name Tony...
May be this is code...very suspicious
Blogger shows an unexpected error when the profile link is clicked...

Pajama Editors

A very weird blog...Nothing anti Indian as far as I saw...Anti leftism is there...
Could it be a secret code? Could be...some of the stuff can be deconstructed to mean terrorism...

Exposing the left

This one seems credible to be frank. I mean not objectionable. A sort of news blog to be frank...
One reference to India...‘‘At least 131 killed in India train bombings: More humanitarian acts from the ‘Religion of Peace’.’’

Sarcasm at its best!
Terrorism? No way!
And they have acknowledged the ban and posted on it too.
Check the article in Indian Express about this.
If bans are placed on this...then every blogger who writes with sarcasm and acid have stuff to worry about.

Common Folk Common Sense

This is very weird. A chinese or japanse blog. Can't say whether this is terrorism or anti India...

These are things I saw first hand. We can interpret anything and apply deconstruction to get any answer. But a ban has to be credible. Even if this is a temporary blackout...

The questions are why this ban?
Even if Government meant these 4, we have the right to know the reason.
And for what was this ban?
To block terrorists?
Guffaw! Anyone with a slight ability to Google Search can circumvent this easily...Just to irritate the public...That is all that was accomplished...And oh yeah reduce my mighty hit rate! :P

If tomorrow was today, today would be yesterday...

One of my favourite songs by The Beatles. Pressure is in an all time high with stuff piling up left, right, and center. These are the times where you long for a better yesterday than a better tomorrow. If tomorrow was today, today would be yesterday, But I long for my yesterday, Your yesterday, And our yesterday. I hope there is yet another day, Will it be any good like yesterday? P.S: These words are mine, song lyrics is there in the song itself. Trivia: Paul McCartney had a dream in which he heard the tune and he immediately composed the music. He didn't have any lyric and used to sing "Scrambled Eggs" instead of "Yesterday" while composing the song,

A Party...

Just came home after a party. A housewarming party. A horrible experience to say the least. Me and my parents went there just after me and mommy had a very uncomfortable talk. Looks like I have to be really careful... So was not in the best of moods. I usually hate these kind of parties when I have no company. My cousin is out of station so one is crossed of a precariously small list. When we reached there were lot of familiar faces. FIxed up a cheshire cat smile on my face and lit it up any time I saw anybody looking at me. Woman: Do you know me sonny? Me: *cheshire cat* (Who are you?) Woman: Don't know? You *blah blah* Me: *cheshire cat reloaded* (errr, I have no idea what you are talking about) Woman: Still no? Your mother *blah blah* Me: *cheshir cat revolution* (y do u bother?) Woman: Still u didnt get me? Me:NO! ( I really mean No!) Woman: Aha! You got me! Me: *smug smile replaces cheshire cat* (Did I?) Went upstairs...they were making food and the dining area...bad place to...
