I am here

I am here again today!
I am not Alone,
A Thousand voices echoing Mine.
Against your inhumane act!!
How long can you play deaf?
I raise my hand again today!
Against your guns.
With a thousand hands rooting Mine!!
How long can you stay blind?
I rise back again today!
After every defeat;
Stronger everytime ,fighting back!
This is my victory.
A few handful everytime backing me,
I am the people .
The number will grow!!
How long can you defeat me?
I will light the dreams!
A lillte late it might come.
But the dawn is sure.
The sun will shine on my face again!
How long can you block the rays?
I can feel the change in the air!
I will stay strong!
I am here again today!

We are back and we are hungry!!

Here is a tribute to the Living Legends of Roadside-Dhabbas Touring!! The very amiable Rocky-Mayur duo!
The quotes , the description and the mindless dropping by to the dhabbas to gluttonly savor the food..Epic Foodies...keep on making hungry and reminding that "we are here to eat only"!!

Expensive restaurants of the nawabs???..who can afford that??? India is a country with more than one billion population with a greater percentage of citizens are unemployed and under the line of poverty..but still everyone longs for a good and decent meals . The dhabbas boys are the saviors. I like the report card part where they rate the dhabbas.. The HOMP is a gateway for people who cannot really have time/money to eat out..It is a guide for foodies opting for reasonable prices...

When the dhabbas boys were denied permits to enter mainland Imphal , theyhave to humbly settle with a manipuri hotel in Nagaland. The video was totally mis-interpreted creating an image that Manipuris are rude. No, we are not. It's just that our hindi is not good, owing to the fact that Hindi is banned in Manipur.
And English was an alien -language to this people who runs roadside dhabbas in the ranges of Hills.
So , for Rocky and Mayur. I baked a typical manipuri dish "Paknam" and uploaded a pic.
Ingreidents : Besan(1 cup), Fresh Green chilly(2 nos), fresh Onion leaves(a handful), cumin seeds(one teaspoon), salt (pinch),water(half a cup).
Procedure:
The finely chopped green chiilies/onion leaves/zeera are stirred fried.
It is then mixed with besan(gram flour),a little water and salt, to make a paste.
Then neatly the paste is pour upon and folded with tumeric leaves.(The tumeric leaves give an aroma to the PAKNAM)
Pressure cook it (three whistles are just fine) then heat it on the pan(10 min)/microwave it for 5 min .
Serve Hot!!

Roti , Kappra,Makahn aur Mobile Phone..The basic necessity of Every Human Being(I 'm not sure of the Zulu tribes)...a must have in everyone's pocket..Purse in case of Ladies in Sarees.

Be it early morning /mid-night or late evening, I can see People are never alone in my office. Please be noted that I work in shifts. People are always having a company on the phone..Ladies screaming at their boyfriends, Guys talibanizing their ladies, Singles like me catching up with friends and families..
everyone is busy and has companies..

I have been the proud owner of Five cell phones so far..the sixth one is coming in soon within a few days..College days..with lesser pocket money..Nokia 1100 was my only option..It survived all through my four years of Engineering days..it even went on to accompany me through my first few months of job. In between these, CMDA comes..a cheap china phone that gets heated with one min of call.. it was bought with the greed of saving few paise as Reliance CDMA to CDMA was free back then. Then i changed it with Samsung CDMA to save my ears...back to my NOkia1100..When I got my motoraola SLR..i gave away the Nokia phone to my friend whose Mom was in need of cell phone..I heard that it is still functioning fine.. The motorolla looks beautiful but the functionality was poor..
I am clumsy and prone to getting cell phones slipped off from my hand.The life span was short .And soon it got replaced by a Nokia X3. A slider..and it has the slider problem now..the connection got blew and the screen was blackout ..Luckily It was within the warrenty period and got it fixed..now the sound quality is poor..I am switching soon to BlackBerry Storm !!! exicting!!!
