Deshabhimani Rocks!

The news in Deshabhimani!!!!

 

For the Malayalam challenged: The article on the left says that a man won the International Dog eating contest by eating 68 dogs in 10 minutes. The article specifically says that the man ate the meat of 68 dogs.

 

Now the truth J

What a translation ??????

Got this as a forward today morning. Don’t know if this is photoshopped. Having read Deshabhimani, I can say that it is not!

    Oh my world! Naru, thanks for pointing this out. Well, I was never proud to say Deshabhimani is my newspaper, but what can I say, my father won't look at another newspaper, and his favorite channel is you guessed it, Kairali. And his favorite son is named Lenin, obviously. But I kinda hate Deshabhimani n I am no communist! Deshabhimani is terrible, they make mistakes in almost every edition. For more, u just turn to the names of English movies released in the city, or names of English people, you will find terrible names there.

Scholarship!

Found this is Friday Five and liked it. 1. If you were to have a scholarship created in your honor, what qualities would you look for in applicants (leadership, service, GPA, etc.)? GPA is bullshit. People with high GPA can be both muggers and geniuses. There can be people with no real "definitive talent" having a high GPA. Also, some can be flatout arses with no regard for the society. I would never create a scholarship in terms of GPA. Service is paramount. IQ and EQ both are equally important. Abstract thought counts. Creativity would be a defining factor. Enthusiasm is a must. There will be personal interviews. 2. Who would be eligible to apply for your scholarship (members of a certain major, ethnic group, sexuality, etc.)? No discrimination except there would be a weightage given to economically disadvantaged. Their need would be greater than that of a well to do kid. 3. Would it be need-based or not? Why? Need-based is contentious. Whose need? Some may need the money ...

The End...

This is the final post in this blog. Nearly five years ago, I started this blog from an Internet Cafe. 5 years on, the blog has probably chronicled my state of being. The triumphs, losses, disappointments et al. All this while, I have been experimenting with lot of things and even tried to switch the blog multiple times. This time the switch is for real. I want a fresh start without the baggage. You could even say I am a little inspired by Up in the Air. I don't really have an ETA for a new blog. I could start posting today, tomorrow, or never. Go to: Idle thoughts and update your references. See you out there! Signing off with these words from Jim Morrison: This is the end Beautiful friend This is the end My only friend, the end Of our elaborate plans, the end Of everything that stands, the end No safety or surprise, the end I'll never look into your eyes...again Can you picture what will be So limitless and free Desperately in need...of some...stranger's...
