A Lone Stranger

That's exactly what friends are for... (A nice thoughtful piece, by a well meaning soul...) I never sat on a sofa with my father after my marriage; he had already left me, but I have edited & forward the following story, since it is almost mine: "Many years ago, after I got married, I was sitting on a couch on a hot, humid day, sipping frozen juice during a visit to my father. As I talked about adult life, marriage, responsibilities & obligations, my father thoughtfully stirred the ice cubes in his glass & cast a clear, sober look at me. "Never forget your friends," he advised, "they will become more important as you get older. Regardless of how much you love your family & the children you happen to have, you will always need friends. Remember to go out with them occasionally, do activities with them, call them ..." "What strange advice!" I thought. "I just entered the married world, I am an adult & surely my wife...

A Jinxed Love Story: 5 Autowallahs I Have Met in Delhi Autowallahs  are not my favourite people in the world. And going by the sheer number of stink eyes I get from them every day, this feeling must be mutual. Don't get me wrong, there have been plenty of times when the  autowallah  has happily agreed to take me by the meter, or sweetly helped me find my way when I was more lost than Babe was in the woods. But it is a truth now universally accepted, that thanks to my auto-jinx, I have had more near death experiences in auto-rides than everything else put together.     Here are five types of  autowallahs , I encounter pretty often, but wish I didn't.  1. The Hulk:  First and foremost is The Hulk. He may not turn green but The Hulk is ALWAYS angry. The Hulk loves expletives. They make him happy. In my vast (and deeply disturbing experience) it is best to keep calm and plug in your earphones. Also pray that he doesn't run over someone. Pray ...

India and weed are inseparable. Our relationship with the plant is long and deep. Quite a few of our holy-men have it, and quite a few of us have it in Holi! Now, the official position of the Indian government on marijuana is "illegal, but not enforced." But despite being illegal, the plant is doing just fine as our generation has taken to Cannabis Indica with a vengeance. We believe that it's time to de-criminalize weed. Here's why:     1. Marijuana grows naturally. Making something natural illegal is "borderline stupid."  Here's where this is going, "Mangoes are tasty. But mangoes are fattening. They cause obesity. Let's make mangoes illegal."   2. Organized marijuana farming will be an economic -stroke. It'll mean loads of jobs and loads of very baked and happy farmers.     3. Ever seen a violent stoner? No? That's because there's no such thing. Weed drastically reduces aggressive behavior in ...
