Man and the dog.

ok...I agree its been ages since I wrote something worthwhile (worthwhile...hehehehe)...but I have had my reasons. For starters, a screwed up comp at home does'nt help. No amount of indoctrination on the institutes part(doing my pg from Welingkar) to have the celestial initiative orientation can remove a guy like me from my reverential stupor, and get hold of a mechanic who can fix my freaking machine.

And then traveling to college is a pain. Now now, dont get me wrong...have been travelling on my own for a good decade and a half, but with every passing day, the number of people on the streets of mumbai seem to multiply three folds, especially since the past couple of months. The 11/7 blasts (I refuse to call them the 7/11 attacks) magnified the plight of this neglected city, but to no avail.

The thick skinned bastards sitting at Mantralay, don't care a shit about the beautiful city. None of the Peoples representatives from Mumbai opened their stinking mouth to voice the problems of this once beautiful city, in the parliament session. They said it was a collective decision on part of their party to discuss the broad terrorism issue, and not to restrict it to Mumbai.

I am not for any particular party. But there seems to be no one to to stand up for this city. I don't know where we are heading....if at all we are moving in any direction. This city has come to a standstill. Beginning to hate this city, beginning to hate my hometown.

The Shabana's give out a deafening shrill everytime the government tries to clear the slums, the Maneka's start barking when the BMC tries to sterlize the stray canines. They say they love humans and dogs respectively. Haha.

But they are more than prepared to see them living in the current squalor. Trust me when I say this, but the dogs prefer euthanasia to being run over by cars or worse, pelted to death. The Shabana's with their populist stand are encouraging the drought prone farmers to occupy our last remaining footpaths.

The former might be eyeing the votebank, but someone please text Maneka that dogs are yet to get a voting right.
