@Site: It appears to work. 😆 Will surely check out Piku over the weekend.

@Detective Byomkesh Bakshy: Kwerky, we have a telepathic connection...

Yesterday, after I finished downloading DLKH, I also downloaded DBB, and had intended to watch it before going off to bed. [Was in a film-watching mood yesterday.]

DBB didn't really hold my attention though. Will try watching it again today, but I might just fall asleep today too... 😳😳

Have you watched the BBC series "Sherlock" with Benedict Cumberbatch? I'm not quite smitten by BC's good looks, but I quite like that show. 😳

The guy is so oblivious... 🤢🤢

He actually shot down someone opposing the death penalty by saying: "your opinion does not count!".

Wisu (enraged): You pathetic attention-seeking megalomaniac!

YOU SHOULD NOT be peddling YOUR opinions around in a debate that you are moderating. It is YOUR opinion that should not count...

[Unfortunately, the mild-mannered A. Goswami couldn't possibly hear me yelling at him from my living room...]

Have you heard Golda Meir? When she delivered her speech saying that the state of Israel will not negotiate with terrorists, it almost sounded like a man was talking. There was nothing gentle or soft - but it was extremely courageous and obviously correct.

Our govt, on the other hand, succumbed to the pressure put on them by the relatives of the people in the hijacked plane, and their petty political compulsions. There was a very fat man (a surgeon, I remember) who was speaking on news channels on behalf of the families of the people in the hijacked IC-814, and he was constantly referring to the Rubaiyya Saeed case. Rubaiyya Saeed was a useful precedent, and now so is IC-814.

You know, when random right-wingers on news websites post responses to messages opposing the death penalty saying: "what if one of your family members had perished in the terrorist strike?", it makes me think...

While I don't even want to imagine how I will cope with the grief of losing someone in a terrorist attack, I can say for sure that if I were to be killed in such an attack, I would not want the terrorist to be executed. If there is any life left in me after the attack, and they ask me for my opinion on my deathbed, I am quite certain, I will not want the person responsible to be killed in return.

Should he be made aware of the senselessness of his actions? Yes, of course.

Should he be incarcerated? Yes.

Should he be rehabilitated? Yes.

It can't be just be the leftist liberal in me, who'd be willing to give up my life without a virulent urge to seek revenge. I would have expected that the nationalists would rather be more willing to sacrifice themselves, nahin? 😛

LOL... nahin... I should get an award for procrastinating. 😳 😳

IF mein I found a food and recipes forum... Some people post pictures of food that they have cooked. I'm thinking, I should just start with unprofessional pictures, only so that I can at least start with the idea... 🤔

@Only the two of us chattering away here: I'm not complaining... 😆

You know, how it was last year? We had a similar thread, and we needed to fill it up, because I was determined not to go to the BB forum until the CC thread was finished. So, every morning, I'd wake up and spam that thread. Every evening, I'd see that GG has done her bit too...

And we were not even talking to each other. At one point, I decided to make a list of my favourite words, and then I would make one post after another, each with just one word that caught my fancy. It had gotten so bad that IF was giving me spam warnings. 😆 😆 😆

GG had similarly posted pictures, and random messages... That was the fate of

This year, at least we are having a conversation. Hopefully, by the time BB starts, we will be done with this thread. 😆😆

Arrre waah...finally ONE site works. 😆 This is my go-to site for watching Hindi movies...I just don't like downloading stuff so I prefer good websites where I can watch movies online. Einthusan has HD prints...and though it takes a couple of months after the release of the movie to be featured on the site, it's worth the wait.

Telepathic connection...🤗

So did you get through DBB or fell asleep again? The plot was far-fetched, IMO.

Yes, I have watched "Sherlock"...though not the complete series. The treatment is good and I think it is a very fine show.

So he was being his usual self. 😆 What really gets my goat is HOW ON EARTH some people come in repeatedly on his show after never being allowed to say anything more than - "Arnab...Arnab...can I speak?" 😆😆

He has this I-am-the-sole-custodian-of-justice-and-the-last-standing-pillar-of-the-fourth-estate air about him which drives me mad.
