Hmm

JJ is losing her religion. While she still remains the exalted floobadoon, now she has joined the Order of the Bagel.

But Java City won't be forgotten. Nor will the big fat lazy doggie outside... the only one who remembers Bangalore the way it was.

Or Koshy's. Gleaming white coffee cups, extra strong coffee and colonial hangover.

But thats what JJ does. She collects. So forgive her.

F**k Coelho

Joyous Jala is only Jyenagar Jala today. She is watching mass produced Hollywood soppiness and drinking it all in. Its so much easier to feel sorry for oneself when pretty images are constantly hurled at you from the idiot box.

Democratisation of loneliness. Here everybody, now all of you get your own personal little stash of self-pity. Who needs to socialise to feel bad about themselves anymore. You can do it in your own living room or bedroom. Much fun it will be.

People say when you want something, go ahead and work hard for it. It will come to you. Coelho even makes money out of dishing the same drivel.

But the real misfortune is that, I remember having read it.
