Why?

jiven rukia / (the) way you paused
si tu zara / slightly
nahion bhulna / i shan't forget
main sari umar / all my life
jiven akhia si akhan chura / you said, looking away
"rovenga sannu yad kar" / "you shall weep in my memory"
hasia si main hassa ajeeb / i laughed a strange laugh
(par) tu nahi si hasia / but you didn't
dil vich tera jo raaz si / the secret you kept in your heart
mainu tu kyun nahi dasseya / why didn't you say it to me

Gill Te Guitar

Here's a Summer of 69-ish number from the first true Indian Brand in Music. Mind you, I'm not suggesting replications, I'm suggesting genres.

It's in my blood, not in my hair

An amazing and daring piece on making sense of religious teachings. The Author is known to be radical, but conventionalists will find it hard to rationally disqualify his conjectures.

Me? I agree wholeheartedly. Religion is not anyone’s authority. Like the constitution, there can be a million interpretations of a document that has unquestionably been written in a completely different context. Adaptation and Progress are the keywords for our species. And they will remain to be so, no matter how many people keep banging their heads on the seats of Authority, hoping for the forthcoming generations to assiduously follow adjunct practices of their tailored religion.

Bodies are born and burnt. The soul survives. However, it’s invisibility is mistaken for insignificance.

The Wait

Aaj fir ek sawaal ka javaab nahin
Aaj fir kuch mujhe gavara nahin

Abhi tera waqt hai kaainaat wale,
ek mehfooz sa ghar banale

Kal ko waqt mera bhi aayega
Tujhe tabaahi se kaun bachayega

Cool Mozilla Firefox Extensions

There is a certain ignorance amongst internet creatures regarding Mozilla Extensions. I felt that because the topic came up in converation with KD today, and he didn't know much about them. And if he doesn't, well, then it's safe to say a LOT of people don't.

So here's a list of neat tweaks to make your foxes foxier:

1. Sage - The best Integrated RSS reader for Firefox. The CSS Style for RSS looks drab after some use. Here's an idea for those of you initiated in development and looking for making something popular quick - An RSS Reader with some cool content templates.
   
2. BlogThis - Adds the Blogger "Blog this!" functionality to firefox.
3. googlebar - :)
4. easyGestures - Do everything with a middle click.
5. FoxyTunes - The one I use the most. Allows you to control your music player from within firefox status bar, you can hide the player or open/close right from the neat little control buttons. Mmmuuuah
