It is an amazing place. Like I said to Vod once, see this country with your own eyes before forming your opinion of it from the movies and cable TV channels.

I am sure you ll like it here.


You better. I d urge anyone who can afford it, to give this place a visit at least once in their lifetime.

Rolls is doing quite well. The meds and shots he's on right now seem to be working a wee bit. He stands a lot more now (still limps though), and the 2 nodules on his tail look a bit smaller than before. The docs will be arriving tomorrow morning to give their diagnosis though, so we will really know if he has improved any. Thanks for inquiring, bud. :)


Oh we stash em all out of sight, so that people wont know we are actually heavy beer drinkers.

j/k...I dont drink, and neither does she.


Psh...I m just another social human with a busy life like all of you out there.

I posted pics of my collection not too long back. Will take some new ones soon.

slumdog must have really pissed you off to come out from behind the mask like this :)

Not to be a "buttinski", but I was wondering if that was you V. If that is you, awesome, but if you're not willing to admit that, then your "friend" has a very kind face and you should photograph him more, maybe this time without the hand in front of his face so we can see his nice smile. :D

Undoubtedly. You must have read my review in the Last Seen Movie thread.

I am terribly disappointed with that flick. Not only does it portray this country differently, but also because Danny Boyle has come across as a very responsible and talented filmmaker.

For him to make this flick, AND collecting awards for his effort, is a really sad and pathetic fact. People need to wake up away from this "fantasy" real life that Slumdog has portrayed of India. The real India is far, far different.

Although I have been planning for this thread for quite some time. Slumdog certainly wasnt the ONLY reason behind this effort.


rofl...that is me.

FINALLY! And thanks for the mention as well. You must be bloody amazing at time management though, to do all the wonderful stuff you do here and spend time with the wife, work and all of the other daily activities. Bravo!

Really interesting to see what Indian life is like, as it is with any culture (except the dutch. Damn them all). Really nice home you've got there. The outside views of India remind me a bit of Egypt. I know they're in 2 different continents, but there is something there that seems familiar.

The open roads on both sides must leave that impression of Egypt.

The area where I live and the road leading to my office is actually out in the suburb outskirts of the city. It is still under plenty of development (roads widening, underground cable & underground drainage/sewage systems), so pavements and streets are still a few years off.

These same driving pics would look much more sophisticated and crowded in about 5 years or so. The city is developing in this direction at a rapid pace, and the real estate rates have shot up about 5-6 times in the past couple years.

This is so cool. I love being able to picture who I am talking to online. Your wife is beautiful by the way, and your puppy looks so cute. :D

What's wrong with the Dutch?? Netherlands 2010! Woohoo!!

:p

Aha! The elusive V! :eek: Thank you so much for sharing!:) It looks like you have an amazing and wonderful life! I especially like the "on the road" shots, and of course the picture of you! :p

Great thread. Great to meet you! :D
