Creative Block = Creative Blog (?)

So,

As the title suggests, there is a blockage of the creative kind. Blockage sounds gross. (-.-) But I digress...
Presenting to you today is a drum-and-cymbal kinda cartoon.

Enjoy!





BADUM - TISH !


For those who don't know what Murai (puffed rice) is: 

Puffed rice (Telugu:Maramaralu, Tamil:பொரி [Pori], Malayalam:പൊരി, Marathi:चिरमुरे) is a type of puffed grain made from rice; usually made by heating rice kernels under high pressure in the presence of steam, though the method of manufacture varies widely. (source: Wikipedia)

Fig 1: Plain Murai

For those who know what Murai is but don't have access to it currently (mainly people gone abroad):

Fig 2: Spiced Murai/ Chatpatte


P.S. I'm eating Fig 2. right now. mwahahahahaha!

Love.

Higher Understanding

What up world.

So currently, Nepal police is cracking down on Marijuana farmers because well, believe it or not, marijuana just happens to be illegal in Nepal. They're burning crops in the belief that they'll be able to "weed out" (wink wink, cheap shot lol) this illegal trade from the glorious Nepali economy. The punnily titled Nepali Times article, Going to Pot, may inform you better on this issue: http://www.nepalitimes.com/issue/2000/12/15/Nation/8384 

This is my take on the matter. 

Cheers!






P.S. The drawing for the second frame was inspired by Henri Matisse's famous artwork - "La Danse", pictured here:




P. P. S. I've already told you in Post 1, "Smoking is injurious to Health".

Over and Out.

Use more, lose more (... melanin)



I'm so annoyed with the current 'fair and lovely' ads that asks you to:
1. Apply more (and more frequently) cream
2. Apply a range of products by the same company (capitalism much?)
3. Be bitchy to people who "cheat" and do not follow step 1.


People, embrace your melanin! It saves you from skin cancer, to some extent. Plus, we're always gonna want what we don't have. The west runs after tanned skin (spell Snooki) and the east runs after buttermilk white skin. You're beautiful as you are and all that jazz.


Peace.

Hello all!

In my head, you were all waiting for my next post with baited breath. Hope you're all having a good Monday (bleh) so far! I will be in India for the week and thought I'd let you breathe for now.
