Great Comment on the books Shyam. Keep it Up and others learn something from Mr. U. (Now with the Dhoom craze and Mr A's etc I am also going to follow suit. Atleast till the thrill wears out) Surprised that Ms. R and Mr. A have not seen fit to respond. Stopped reading have we?

I also would like to take this opportunity to web-smack that crazy M.P who suggested that the King be made a President in Nepal. Either throw him out and begin afresh or let him be as he is. What's this about a President. Who in their right mind wants a President in any country (the U.S included) Grand state occassions gets turned into a pantomine everytime Hon. Kalam steps out or when Bush opens his mouth. To really understand the value of the monarchy (inspite of them being big-spending free-loaders as per Mrs Blair) you should all watch The Queen. Apart from Helen Mirren who as ElizabethII gives a lesson in acting and subtelty it also shows how a monarchy serves as a symbol of stability & impartiality in an everchanging face of local politics. When Diana died and the British were thinking of abolishing the monarchy there, Blair was at the peak of his popularity just like Messrs Koirala & Prachada are now. But as Her Majesty tells Blair towards the end of the movie, "The public have a funny way of changing loyalties. Sometime in the future, suddenly and without warning, the same will happen to you"

We all know where Blair is now and knowing Koirala i am sure we can expect the same very soon. So in the middle of all this having a monarchy is the only decent thing to do.

Sorry to all you non nepalis who must be wondering where this blog is going.

By the way i am also starting a iNGO called "Lets Make Prabir History".

Oops! that should read "Lets Make Prabir's Bulimia History"
