Nature

Technology has always be 'witch-hunted' for causing damage to our environment. There are many cases where technology helps in protecting the environment. But on the other hand, it can be argued that technology is the source for the damage to begin with. The cause though, is human need. As humans needs and wants increase, technology happens to be the tool that serves the purpose, and as a side effect, it causes environmental damage.

The much awaited Simpsons movie was released few days back. After years of airing, and numerous episodes, as mentioned in their site, the stupidity of Homer Simpson would only fit the wide screen.

Well, like most story, the movie had a beginning, middle and an end. The protagonist (Homer) had challenge, went on a journey, overcame the hurdles, and met an ending.

Yes, it was first snow for me today. As I said in the last post, I moved from coasts of India, a warm humid place, to Denver, USA, a dry and cold place.

How beautiful can it get? How melodious can it be with its screeches and tweets all at the same time? How disciplined can it be during the creation and destruction process? How mysterious can its ways be? How can it bring together things seemingly so far fetched and totally unrelated as into one single entity?

It was a fine Friday evening, and I set out to meet my friends from my workplace. A common conclusion to such an excursion would mean that we are going to have a party, but such was not the case.

We drove our vehicles and parked it at Besent Nagar's beach, that is, Elliot's beach. Yes, I rode my Black Beauty to that place. From there, we hired an auto-rickshaw to the target beach which was further south.
