2009 has been hectic so far, what with a tour of some six cities in the North and three in the south within about 15 days. This was to interview students for admission to our b- school. Very interesting to interact with young guys and girls across towns, sampling the local flavours of food and culture. The highlight was a kite-flying experience on the rooftop of a Jaipur hotel. Udaipur was also a place worth looking around in, with its serene palaces and lakes.
The headlines on TV look almost surreal and disconnected, when one takes off to visit various places. Why we can't discuss anything better than one or two sick happenings for three or four days in a row is something only TV news editors can answer-or maybe they can't!
Anyway, we have more news channels and hours than we need. As with everything else? Choosing between 100 channels of trash is only occasionally interesting. Thank god for something like the sports channels or the handful of comedy shows. They are so refreshing.
