Am..' Bushed '..Indeed...!

-

I was not able to connect my reader to my last blog entry "Oh..! What a "Head" !..
I appreciate being 'am..bushed'.
I however feel.. I 'remained' connected to the scribble...may be that's what is obsession all about...
Thank you ...Himanshu...for the wake up call...
My 'scribbles' in the coming year..I.. 'hope'.. will remain an engaged reading.Well..well...that's a long way to go...?

Now I will not be able to close this entry..unless I come back to subject "BUSH".
The world may hate President Bush for different reasons.. but I will always hold my respect for him. I am glad he was able to 'duck' the "shoes"....
The people of America may not have reasons to remember President Bush..but I as a human being will remember him for keeping the people of America safe after "9/11."
I am not an Iraqi... hence I will not be able to fathom the Iraqi's hatred of President Bush. However I don't endorse 'flinging shoes' at a "President".
I am an Indian and I have more reasons to respect President Bush..
because President Bush has done more to India than all the past "American Presidents".. put together.
Well I am sure there will 'remain' difference of opinion there... but I will still hold on to this scribble...about the 43rd President of America,Mr.George W Bush....
"Bushed" indeed..! ..Am I....?

AFRICAN SAFARI.....a Book Review

-
Image
  "African Safari" is an intriguing title for a book that nowhere talks of  any expeditions to animal kingdom in the jungles of Africa. This book is about a cigar smoking business tycoon , a multibillion and multinational conglomerate whose business interest goes beyond his inherited empire of liquor and beer industries and spreads across industries  as diverse  as Airlines, Pharma, Paints, textiles to name a few. The media across the globe dub him as "King of good times".  "African Safari " is the story of "Rana Kapoor" the business tycoon and his business ventures in the French speaking regions of Africa, a continent that is fast emerging as world's big time growth market. The book takes us through  intricacies of clinching  business deals.  It talks about how political lobbying and networking with people in high places and bankers collaborate and become a blue print for M&A  stories. The book tells you that stories of business ventures

Giving words to my thoughts...

I  am returning to this space after 2 years and past 242 posts .It doesn't mean that I have lost my itch  for writing. I have always loved  scribbling words that give voice to the way I look at a situation, or to the way I feel about anything on the ground and under the sky. . My   view  may or may not matter  to the rest. However for me it remains a  mark of my own creativity. My creativity is more about visualizing things that  seldom see the light of the day.   Some call this  “Daydreaming” . I don't mind if people call me  a “wandering mind.” Neither I am bothered about the stigma called  “laziness” attached to it.  I see it as a tonic that energizes me  to think  beyond the realm of possibility For instance no matter how much  ever  I would have   chased my dreams  of becoming a corporate tycoon  I would never have been one simply because I would then lose the privilege and intimacy of being around with familiar and friendly faces sipping beer in crowded bar. I don't l

Who will win BIHAR .. 'Let the last Vote get counted'

This Bihar election is the first major election since the Covid 19 pandamic disrupted the political calender and prompted sweeping measures for social distencing. The three Phase Bihar Poll for 243 Vidhan Sabha seats was completed on the 7th. The turnout for the poll as per media report was 58%. Today is the vote counting day. By the time the sun sets today , the dawn  of the next political regime in the State will emerge. Will this dawn usher in a new political 'don' or  the "Sarkar Raj" will continue  with  their  "All is Well " narrative for another 4 years. Will PM Modi, the over used "trump card" political campainer for NDA  be able  to push  back JDU- BJP led alliance once again into rulling Bihar for another four year terms or will he   concede defeat without playing and  crying foul.  Well whatever be the outcome of today's polling verdict, the politics of vendetta and vilifying the  poor will continue. The problem of unemployment, the
