    Apparently it is somewhere in Bangalore. Not the first. People had seen apparitions on toast, pancakes, usually breakfast foods. Some mirages disappear after the viewer recovers from a hangover from previous evening's party.

    The three old, wise-guys from the east is the Christmas story. I have often seen our three old wise guys from the east (this is not the first time) come together bearing "likes".

    There were these lyrics of a song of Tina Turner from years ago.
    What's love got to do, got to do with it
    What's love but a second hand emotion
    What's love got to do, got to do with it
    Who needs a heart when a heart can be broken
    I've been taking on a new direction
    But I have to say
    I've been thinking about my own protection
    It scares me to feel this way oh oh oh

    Last night I revisited DDLJ downloaded on my tablet.

    Simran inquired with Raj: Why do you address me senorita?
    Raj responded: My ex-girlfriend was Spanish.

    ... unbearable lightness of the 'bowler hat' folly though in this instance it was the man and not the woman. Should Raj have been mindful not to reveal the nitty-gritty of his past dalliances? A Spanish catchphrase would have been a playful endearment with his Spanish girlfriend but moving over to his newfound girlfriend, Raj out of habit contravened the 'bowler hat' discretion that could potentially have ruined his chances with Simmy. But our large-hearted Simmy laughs it out. Bowler hats are not always wreaking between emerging love. At times, the cherished references from the past love between the blundering couples are amusing.

    The song playing on my laptop. I love this song much!



    I messed up tonight
    I lost another fight
    I still mess up but I'll just start again
    I keep falling down
    I keep on hitting the ground
    I always get up now to see what's next
    Birds don't just fly
    They fall down and get up
    Nobody learns without getting it won
    I won't give up, no I won't give in
    Till I reach the end
    And then I'll start again
    Though I'm on the lead
    I wanna try everything
    I wanna try even though I could fail
    I won't give up, no I won't give in
    Till I reach the end
    And then I'll start again
    No I won't leave
    I wanna try everything
    I wanna try even though I could fail
    Oh oh try everything
    Look how far you've come
    You filled your heart with love
    Baby you've done enough that cut your breath
    Don't beat yourself up
    Don't need to run so fast
    Sometimes we come last but we did our best
    I won't give up, no I won't give in
    Till I reach the end
    And then I'll start again
    Though I'm on the lead
    I wanna try everything
    I wanna try even though I could fail
    I won't give up, no I won't give in
    Till I reach the end
    And then I'll start again
    No I won't leave
    I wanna try everything
    I wanna try even though I could fail
    I'll keep on making those new mistakes
    I'll keep on making them every day
    Those new mistakes
    Oh oh, try everything

    How Lucy Wills discovered a medical marvel in Marmite
    excerpts:
    Some love it; some hate it; but there is something special about Marmite, as Lucy Wills discovered in the 1920s. The discovery that folic acid is important to the health of pregnant women is a classic story of serendipity in science.

    Having recently finished a medical degree, Wills was recruited to Mumbai, India, to investigate why many pregnant women were suffering from a severe and often fatal form of anaemia. ....

    Marmite was rich in vitamin B. After its success at treating anaemia in monkeys, Wills tried giving it to 22 women, and it had a similar effect to that of liver extract. “Despite the small number, the results of the treatment were, however, so striking that I feel justified in reporting them – more especially as I am leaving India, and shall not be able to continue the work,” she wrote.​

    Simran must have wondered how she compared with the ex-novia, and in what aspects -- beyond just plain old "availability"-- she had surpassed Raj's benchmark.

    I went and looked up the etymology of "benchmark", the verb.
    Novalis keeps on shifting her benchmarks with books she reads. And the biriyani she makes. And ... yada yada..

    Wearing a certain hat, had become the idiomatic usage for thinking/behaving a certain way. But the wearer of the hat should mind the beholder.
    Could Raj have said that "Siñorita" is simply his mangling of the endearment "Simyorita", and got away with it, and pleased his girl aslo.

    Here is Alejandro Fernandez, a mexican crooner belting out these lyrics, asking the rhetorical "where are you going, so alone?" to his Simyorita; didn't Raj belt out something like this in the Swiss hills ?
    ¿donde vas tan sola?
    ¿donde tan solita? (x2)
    Toda el alma se me alegra Cada vez que yo te miro Unos dias por la maÑana Y en la misa los domingos. Y te miras tan bonita Cuando estas ahÍ en la iglesia Que me quedaria contigo Todo el tiempo reza y reza
    Ay, que bien te ves mi vida Cuando pasas caminando Que me dejas todo el dÍa Suspirando, suspirando
    Si llegaras a quererme Yo me quedaria contigo Nada mas dime con tiempo Pa' que tega listo el nido

    Viswa my friend, early morning on Mother's Day you are giving me work : ) Here's what google says:

    Kasu Kuduthu -- Dump Money
    Kasu Kuduthu Soonyam Vachukiteenga - Coins
    "Kasu Kuduthu Soonyam Vachukiteenga" - "Coincidence is a good thing"

    Take out one double quote, and it says this:
