UCBS!

Bowled over by the title? It's the acronym for 'You can't be serious'!

But there are many of us who take ourselves very seriously. To cite an example, there was this incident in Punjab today when a 'sarpanch' repeatedly slapped a young lady, under the glare of the media and with thousands of people watching. And what was her fault? She'd insisted on meeting the local MP!

Who gave him the right to make decisions and dipense justice(?) and that too in this crude manner? And what made the whole scenario miserable was that none amongst the crowd had the guts to tell the uncouth guy that he was in the wrong and elicit an apology from him on the spot. His punishment, as per my personal belief, doesn't end there, it's just the beginning and it should be deterrent enough for him and people like him to never again repeat such an outrageous act!



Tailpiece.

Have not been able to get over Dev Anand's passing away. I've been assiduously following the tributes to him being broadcast on various channels and it gives me tremendous relief reliving those nostalgic scenes and movies of the greatest entertainer of them all!
