'Harry
Potter 6'
16th
July 2009
I'm
totally un-embarrassed to say I'm a Harry Potter fan. Of the books,
to be precise, which I've read at least twice each. The quality of
the films [direction, acting, casting, etc] has been steadily improving
with each release, though. And this evening I'm going for "The
Half-Blood Prince", first day, first show. With a giant tub of
popcorn, an ice-cream, and a coke. Its so great to be a kid again
sometimes!
I've been 'preparing' for it these last five days, re-watching the
first five films one a day.
[I'd like to reassure the 'adult and mature' smirkers right here
that I'm a great fan of 'The Lord of the Rings' too - I don't know
why they often seem to think its got to be either / or. I mean, surely
we can be adults and children at once?]
'India, I Cry'
23rd
July 2009
I
have written a new song called 'India I Cry'. I've just finished recording,
mixing and mastering it, and am working on the video at the moment.
It should be ready in a couple of weeks. It will soon be released
for FREE listening and download on this website.
Desecrating
Creation
21st
October 2008
You
cannot desecrate my God by destroying man-made structures of worship,
for He builds them not, needs them not, and dwells not within them.
You desecrate Him daily when you destroy His earth, trees, water and
air, for these He has created, and lives in them and through them.
I
wish He would call a bandh and stop giving you His gifts
for just a day.
In the wake of vandalism in places of worship by
unknown miscreants in Goa, and a bandh
called by a political party to protest the same.
