I personally love family socialising. 10. Oh yea, u see that a lot in Hyd. Drives me nuts. 13. So-so. 14 I like coriander 17 I, though a brahmin , am not so against killing sentient animals for food. I consider that as a very low priority when I think about the habits a brahmin should have. 18. I used to love cricket. Now less. But having understood test cricket, I think it is a great sport and has many specialities which most other sports do not have. I believe your grudge against cricket is also because you are not a person so inclined to enjoy sport. Cricket wastes a lot of time for some ppl, but then sleep, movies and other sports also waste time for others. Likes…

Aiswarya Rai is smart. It was a little careless of me to put her there and contrast with Jennifer Aniston.. I only meant to say that most men are crazy head over heels about Rai, but I'm not. I sincerely think she doesn't belong in the film industry because she can't act to save her life. 2. There is no superficial relation between the two. I just like better, the people who don't follow all the "etiquettes" but are still nice. Secondly, I'm not agnostic. I've treaded that path and am very much a believer in God. But my belief system is close to Hindu Pantheism. My principle is simple - question all the beliefs that you acquire, and find the better one. 3. Sitting here, you can't change anything in India. That's true.. But candle light protests is only a way of convincing *yourself* that you are protesting.. it doesn't prove anything to others. Heck, I wonder if anyone outside of Raleigh even knew about our candlelight protest in NCSU for the Mumbai bombings. 4. I would be a hypocrite if I mind people challenging my views. 1.

Just to know, I feel you're agnostic- wild guess, want to know if I am right. 3: about candlelight protests- well I feel they do make a difference, its silent protest, sitting in the US, you can't change what's happening in India but protesting from here shows we aren't OK with anything and everything and that we will change things if we have the opportunity to do so! 4: I hope you don't mind people who challenge your views! else add it to the list and i'll be careful next time :) 1: Aishwarya Rai is a smart woman, I’ve always felt men who dislike her are male chauvinists who can’t accept that a woman from Bombay with no background in the film industry, could so easily conquer the world with her beauty and charm (and manipulative mind maybe as my dad puts it)
