failed bill

very surprised to see that the bill failed! spoke too soon. the world looks on.

rescue bill

A very interesting and important week begins. After the announcement of the rescue bill the market, not just US but global market is sure to bounce back. What remains to be seen, and is difficult to judge now, how it will affect the market in the long run -- even in a few months. Quite a few reading to be done.

Rajinder da Dhaba ... revisited

Ok this time we made no mistake, we went to the real one, the one tucked away behind the flashy Rajinder Express, et al. We ordered butter chicken, mutton barra, and naan -- the food was good, nothing out of the world, but definitely one of the good places in South Delhi. The food wasnt overly spicy or oily, the naan-s were really freshly baked and huge! It was worth watching a team of 3 men hauling in huge pots of cooked meat to efficiently replace the empty ones. The place does very brisk business.

imf-ing

I know its bad English, but could not help it. It was fun yesterday, the big wall was open after a while. I had a nice bouldering session, mostly by myself, for a little over an hour. Then moved on to the rope section, where an interesting, knee-bending, and at times powerful route has been put up --- I got through about 2/3rd of it after my 3 attempts. Hoping to go there on Sunday to try again, and again, ... Meanwhile I can think ...

felt good

ran yesterday, and ran in good time!

wall street

whoh its getting really interesting. first the $90B bailout, and now a proposed $900B bailout. its a serious business here, it better work otherwise might be lot of unrest and rippling effects to follow. i should definitely read up a bit to see whats being predicted. sort of feeling ill-informed at many places.
