There was a time…

Posted by: Jolvin on: October 29, 2009

There was a time when I could pen poetry in minutes
There was a time when I would blog effortlessly
There was a time when I’d change status messages frequently.
Where is that time gone I think. My present has overtaken my past.
 

Welcomes You…

Posted by: Jolvin on: August 28, 2009

Some banner designers have a novel way of ensuring their business suffers. Look at the banner of the Congress Party above.
What do you see?
Struggling are you?
Well for one it has a welcome address in all the top 5 languages spoken in the city of Mumbai.
Two, it has the top brass of the Congress across India [...]

Pav, Pohe, and Politics

Posted by: Jolvin on: December 6, 2008

Oh my great state what has become of thou!
Thy politicians are fighting o’er pohe and pav.
To each it’s the food of the soil
Yet it’s all a clever political foil
Oh my great state what has become of thou!
Thy politicians are fighting o’er pohe and pav.
They beef up their security
While our lives are full of anxiety
Oh my [...]

I quit

Posted by: Jolvin on: December 1, 2008

Someone took moral responsibility
Someone listened to his conscience
Someone was put under pressure
They all quit
I wonder who will clean up the mess – or will that person quit too?

A city under siege

Posted by: Jolvin on: November 28, 2008

While our state politicians were busy fighting over pohe and pav, vociferously defending the terror attacks in Malegaon and blaming the ATS (Anti Terrorist Squad) as partisan, they gave a red carpet welcome to approx. 26 militants to hold the financial capital to ransom. And this time it was not some coward militants who planted [...]

About a blog

Posted by: Jolvin on: November 19, 2008

It’s more than a month and a half since my last post. I’m at a loss of mutterings. Actually not – there have been many mutterings that came and went – unfortunately never got pressed as words. Sad!
Keeping a blog alive needs more than just mutterings – it needs the willingness to spend that quality [...]

84mm…

Posted by: Jolvin on: October 3, 2008

Dear Honorable Mr. AR
I’m so stressed the minute I leave the comforts of my home these days. I’m sure I’ll have a nervous breakdown soon as I find people staring at me as though I’m some alien or criminal that people have been wanting to nail down. I don’t know what’s the cash award on [...]

Driving and Rowing

Posted by: Jolvin on: July 28, 2008

WIth all the choices I have seen so far I have finally made the choice of my dream vehicle. I am getting it imported from US for a large sum of money.
It is a war ready vehicle able to go through land and water. Considering the situation I get into these days it’s the [...]

10000th – a conversation…

Posted by: Jolvin on: July 24, 2008

I just finished the 10000th post – well nearly. I do know though that I have missed a few zeroes after that but then it’s fine to be modest sometimes.
Actually It’s all in the mind you know. Fine, there were more or less around that many ideas for a post -  but they never reached [...]

A Room with a View

Posted by: Jolvin on: July 10, 2008

I asked for a room with a view – they obliged
I asked for a room on a higher floor – they obliged
I checked the room and the view in the still of the night - was happy
I checked the room and the view in the wee hours of the morning and look what I saw
The room with [...]
