Today I am reading an article on manorama that CPIM website is inaugurated (http://www.cpimstateconference.com/).
In India we see lot of news article which inaugurates websites. Do websites need to be inaugurated. In India we generally have lot of inauguration and nothing happens after that. These are meetings and functions where every one get some media attention.
Let us not inaugurate sites. Try make the sites popular and popular.
This state meeting of CPIM is going to American bashing. And this site is hosted in US. What a paradox!!!!

To Meet the Doc or Not
Today morning Shibu called me and told that he was suffering from fever and he wanted to see a doc. He wanted to meet Dr Khej. He practices in Apporva Clinic in Bangalore.
This doc is little different from docs normally find in Bangalore. Myself and Wife had visited him couple times before. I like him because he doesn't prescribe lot medicine. He usual advice will be rest and have tender coconut and slight medicines. Once he asked me drink coke when I had some stomach issues. That was time there were controversies that soft drinks contains poisons and other bad minerals in India. Might be he thought it will kill the worms in my stomach.
As usual we had to wait atleast an hour to see the doc. It was not because there were lot of patients but the doctor takes time during the appointments. He always make patient lies down in the bed and do some usual checks. These things are pretty unusual in Bangalore as most docs checks patients in parallel as much as possible as Time is Money.
I couldn’t control the smile when he prescribed the treatment. Thought why did I came there. Could have easily predicted it.

Driving Kottyam to Bangalore
During this Christmas me and m wife made a very late decision to spend time our parents at Kottayam. Since tickets were not available as usual to Kerala from Bangalore I decide to drive in my car. We took the Bangalore - Mettur - Coimbatore - Kottayam road. After a long 14 hours of drive we reached Kottayam.
While coming back we decide to try another route. We started Dec 29th 8 AM from Kottayam. After pushing through heavy traffic we reached Trichoor by 11 AM. Then we took deviation to shornoor than the usual Palghat road. The road was good and less traffic. My wife decided to take the driver seat. She is a cool driver. But easily get tensed can create traffic blocks. She was driving pretty cool and when we reached Vadakamcheery a lorry started honking from behind. She got scared and vehicle got stopped. She created decent block before she was moved out of the driving seat. I took the driving seat again. From Shornoor it was Pattambi and then perumthalmanna to Nilamboor.
On the way we stopped at the roadside had lunch which we packed from home. It was really fun !!
We went to our cousins home in Karulai in Nilamboor and decided to stay over night there. We took bath in the river near by and walked through the rubber farms... We were expecting more variety agriculture. Look like rubber making deep roots there also.
Next day morning we started from Nilamboor 8 am. We took the Nadukani, Guddallor , madumali, Bandipur Gudelpet, Mysore and Bangalore.
On the Nadukani Road we were exited with the forest route and stopped and stopped all the curves. Both of us were traveling this route first time. We were very sad we couldn't spot any animals. Almost at the end of Madumali forest we spotted an elephant. We saw tourist info centre and stopped and with in seconds there is a monkey on my windshield.
We spotted couple of dears in Bandipur. It was 1: 30 Pm we reached Mysore Ring Road.

How can you make Movies like this?
I watched the malayalam moview Romeo in Bangalore today. What a horrible film? This movie is directed by Rajasenan who made some decent movies. How people can make such movies.
