I love my city and my life literally revolves around (parallel at times) it.This is gonna be my modest attempt to share info about Bombay's people, its places, markets, maidans, institutions, transport systems, politicians, socialites, food and eating habits, sports, business, underworld, fashion and life. I shall also post Stock market tips, News and Rumours which I normally get from my many friends and sources.

1. Select a combination of both the mother's and father's names. eg: Suresh and Sharon = Susha, or Joseph and Beena = Jobi.
2. The addition of a 'mon' (meaning son) or 'mol' (meaning daughter) is optional. eg: Sushamol, Jobimon
3. To attach a modern anglicised feel to the names, the mol or mon can be replaced with boy or girl. eg: Jobiboy, Sushagirl.
4. For the politically correct Keralite family, mol and mon can be replaced by the universal 'kutty'(child), which can be used for both boys and girls! eg: Jokutty, Susikutty
Even parents having combination names can still give their children suitable names eg: Libi and Jobi = Lijo However, in the scenario where the parents already have combination names that cannot form more comprehensible child names. eg: Itty and Amukutty, would produce only Itam (which doesn't even sound like a name), or Amit (which is like Northie and stuff!!!!), then:
a. Use an English word like Baby, Merry, Titty, Pearly, Smiley, Anarchy, etc.
b. Use a combination of two English names that you think sound cool (but never cool enough) like Meredith + Gina = Megi, or Sharon + Darlene =Sharlene
c. Use a name from the Bible (and not Nebuchadnezzar! Use one that even Velliammachi can pronounce!) like Jacob, Sam, John, Joseph, Mathew, or Jijo!
d. Use a name that sounds like a cuss word but isn't. eg: Boben, Prussy, Shagi, JustinTimberlake etc.
Note: The use of the letter 'j' is useful in the naming of sibling where names that sound alike are a novelty. eg: Ajji, Sajji, Majji, Bhajji and Nimajji, or Sijo, Lijo, Jijo, Anjo, Panjo, Banjo!

This is place where I go for my daily breakers... I normally have the Hotdog, Omlette Sandwich, Sada Orange Juice or Cocktail...
All over the Gulf you will find small Juice Stalls like these which serves Sandwiches and Burgers at reasonable costs... 99% are run by Mallu Parters who share the responsibity of investments, cooking, delivery, accounts etc.
Also must try Cocktail Icecream Juice .
Sometimes I wonder why are these stalls not found in India ?
Fresh Fal-Fruits
Standard Must Have Decor in every Stall
That me giving some Gyan :)

But I still like this contest of theirs, They have the guts and first mover advantage to this.
Where is Osama? SMS us and win prizes
Some of thier likely upcoming contests are
1. Who killed JFK
2. Where is D Company's CEO
3. How is Smita related to the Thackeray's
4. Why is Rekha always with Farzana.
Whatever said Rediff must be surely make some moolah since junta can vote as many times as they want.
I wish the US goverment did a global SMS contest from thier reward booty to help in thier mission to find OBL and Al Qaeda.
Yesterday I saw the documentry on 9/11 Cover-UP. "Loose Change - 2nd Edition"

I loved eating Misal , Sabudana Vada & Piyush here ..He has a funy veg Samosa which I never figured out the taste. It was one of my favorite joints when I used to work in Shivaji Park.
Once am back will say hello to the guys there.. There is one Raddiwala there where I used to stand and read all the Comics and Magazine :)
I think Thackeray get 10 points for reviving it.
The other Cool Joints in the area are Saibini (Malwani Food), Fansikar, Yeti, Prakash, Aswad, Surti (Samosa & Alluvadi, chinese pattice), Oven Fresh and ofcourse the Frankiewala near Shivaji Park :))
I think Prakash Wagle should open a few outlets via the franchise method and chill-out on his retirement... Come to Dubai, Kai Manhtoss :))

Craz level of construction is currently happening in Doha. You'll see thousands of guys in Blue Suits all over the city.
The city plans to build 450 skyscrapers, only 10% is complete.
Majority of the labour is from the SAARC countries.
