Blessed Nothings Blasted Somethings

Good Morning

Morning it is. 5 am. Have'nt got a wink of sunday sleep. Blame it on force of habit and hair loss. (I'm still thinking of reason no.3 and 4). It's been a week since I last stepped into the hallowed halls of All India Radio, and a lot of water has flown through the Ulsoor lake and a lot of ammonium nitrate has passed through the atmosphere of the city since.

I had plans of writing about subjects as diverse as the brand new studio console, my mothers' obsession for train journeys,the cultivation of cucumber in Upper Volta,etc, but I finally decided to stick to more dark and depressing subjects like bombs and my radio show. (not necessarily in that order).

It is my 4th tryst with disaster in a city.I've had an incredible knack of picking up cities that maybe subject to bomb blasts and natural disasters nad being present right there, which is scary as much as it is empowering. Without any attempt at political correctness, with all my heart,lungs and every living part of my body, I would like to express spite, anger and hatred towards the low lives who actually manipulated and designed this whole situation. But ultimately what does'nt kill us makes us stronger, so I'm hoping we're stronger and wiser with the experience.

Nothing eventful to report about on the last radio show I did, except that there was no noticeable influence of Satan anywhere around (ref: to the person who actually mentioned about satanic music in one of the shows).The music rolled on, I went through with some select picks .To be honest I dont remember a thing of what I did last week, trying my best to recall. But one week is long enough time to forget and to come up with good enough explanations for forgetting.

Alright, the easier bit would be this week. I'm slotted (lol,makes me look like a die machine) for 2 shows this week. Monday (today) as usual 6 to 7 and 9 to 11 pm and same time on wednesday too. Looking forward to getting back to our original studio and using the brand new console. Its all digital with shining LCD et al like some hip hoppers bling. Mine eyes, they dazzle. Lol, jokes aside, I've heard that this thing is really state of the art.

Thats it for now, hope we have a better week with more rains,more diesel, less power cuts, no disasters and the best from radio. Damn, thats a tv sign out line. Feel free to send in your requests and dedications too.

Cheerio people. Till next week.

Peace
