The Origin of life....

Not going to have a debate on religion, this would be only an academic curiosity here. So, please don't throw any "stone bytes" on me, folks. We just finished reading briefly about Darwin's evolution theory as a part of our homeschool science. Simply put, this theory means that we have all descended from a common ancestor and through successive genetic accumulation, spread everywhere. You must have heard of too many apes and the chimps joke which are too stale to throw in here, so i'll hold them back for later use. In India, all science books across the country dutifully follow the evolution theory, probably because most of these books are published in the United Kingdom where Darwin came from. On a related topic, the 'Darwin centre' at the Natural History Museum, London is a must-visit (my own plug here, free service). Back to my question - how does a majority Hindu country like India which also believes in the Trinity theory (Brahma -the Creator, Vishnu ...

Gossips Galore...

Let me shamelessly admit. I love them all. Harmless tidbits involving movie stars, Tv stars or anyone famous than me (which the last time I checked, shockingly includes most of the adult population) would be great for starters. If you're like me who loves to go through the gossip mags on shelves or even better, browse useless online web sites, but consciously pretend you never ever read them, please raise your hands. Ok, keep up the good work of "Mission TattleTalk" from getting destroyed by those bland non-gossipers. Who by the way, are really leading pathetic, platonic lives. Not even worth gossiping about. Back to juicy sound bytes, there are those personalized ones like getting the latest updates on our relatives and friends back home in India. Where, thanks to a zero-tolerance policy to privacy of life, everyone seems to have a deep, insightful knowledge of what the others around them are doing - who lost their job, who got married and living unhappily ever afte...

A Trip to the Fantasy land.....

Where else on earth? Disney land, of course. The house where the richest mouse in the world holds the fort. Is there anywhere, in any part of the world, any other member of the animal kingdom this powerful? Wait. Don't answer that. We just returned from an annual visit to Walt's shrine. Parents who live in California especially, faithfully take their kids almost every year. You have to. It's the State law. You could be whipped and sent to prison if you don't. Anyways, this year we went on the day of Christmas. My logic was that everyone will be busy with their families and who would have time to go to Disney? Right? Well, was i wrong. Completely. In fact, there were families of people visiting and so the crowd was even more than usual. Mmm, maybe it's time my logic took a huge hike. This is what happens when you think you have a uniquely brilliant thought. Exactly that second, about 5000 other people have that exact unique thought. Very sad. For me, i mean. Back to ...
