An evening with the "dancing" superstar MJ...

No...I am not talking about Michael Jackson; about Sir Mick Jagger and The Rolling Stones. We (the other one was Mr. Dinesh) went and saw 'The Rolling Stones' on tour with - A Bigger Bang - on the 20th. What a performance! You would'nt believe its a 63 year old man on stage. He's got so much enthusiasm and energy, its no surprise they are a great act. I haven't been any other major gig, so may be I am exaggerating...but wow...I certainly am going for many more...

I solved this puzzle some time back. I don't remember how long it took me to figure this out, but it was time well spent. Very engaging...try it! Objective: Everybody has to cross the river.

Happy Onam!

Listen to some Onam music while you read: O nam, the principal festival of Kerala, is celebrated against a setting of lush green vegetation. This picturesque harvest festival brings with it ten days of colour, feasting, boat races, song and dance to the state. According to legend, Onam celebrates the golden age of King Mahabali, the mythical ruler of Kerala. The festival is celebrated to welcome the spirit of King Mahabali, and to assure him that his people are happy and wish him well.
