    Where in India do you live? It's crazy how the Hindu right is becoming more paranoid and more terrorist-like with every passing minute.

    They want people to be more like a Lion or a Tiger or anything else ferocious Man like and they world like them to do less Mew Mew and more Grr Grr. When they first got together they looked around the world and realized everything powerful in the world: Western civilization, Islam, true Manly man, White man, Aryan man, real Hinduism, electric motor, the all knowing electric fan overhead the great minds in the Parliament house...they all go GrrGrr, so they decided it was time the Hindu nation too finds its original voice, unique voice, and that voice was GrrGrrr. Now they mostly spend their time telling the people of this 'could-have-been-great-if-we were-in-command' nation to stop mewing and speak in the one true primordial sound...GrrrGrrr.

    Dunn, that's really great. I was deeply disappointed that a discussion of Jayamalini brought me to a blog of Hindiantalk but the excellent of this remark slightly consoled me.

Indian Cigarette Vintage Ads

He put a cigarette in his mouth and, as a matter of silent routine, offered one to Gwyn, who said ‘No thanks.”Richard looked at him.”I packed it in.”"You what?”"I stopped. Three days ago. Cold. That’s it. You just make the life choice.” Richard looked up and inhaled needfully. He gazed at his cigarette. He didn’t really want to smoke it. He wanted to eat it. Almost the only thing that he still liked about Gwyn was that he still smoked…Paradoxically, he no longer wanted to give up smoking: what he wanted to do was take up smoking. Not so much to fill the little gaps between cigarettes with cigarettes (there wouldn’t be time, anyway) or to smoke two cigarettes at once. It was more that he felt the desire to smoke a cigarette even when he was smoking a cigarette. The need was and wasn’t being met… While it would always be true and fair to say that Richard felt like a cigarette, it would now be doubly true and fair to say it. He felt like a cigarette. And he felt like a cig...

Target Magazine 1988 Annual Issue

Cover of Target Magazine 1988 Annual Issue (June) It's a copy that a cousin brother of mine owns. Years ago, I discovered this wonderful magazine only thanks to him. I was too young, about seven, when I first laid my hand on it. I never owned a single copy, my cousin used to do the buying. By the time I decided it was time for me to buy my first copy, the publishers had called quit on the magazine. Yes I did buy a copy of Teens Today. But never again. On the cover image above, one can see Granny, Gardhab Das, Detective Moochwala with his Pooch and many other characters that made this magazine special . -0- Related post: Cherry Blossom ad featuring Gavaskar from this magazine -0- Update: Apr 23, 2014 Rama shared April 1988 issue of Target Magazine
