EXAMINE THIS STRANGE Piece of NEWS  http://www.siliconindia.com/shownews/Men_go_for_looks_women_profession-nid-84040.html?utm_source=Subscriber  

And what is the much touted "LOOK" ? In my opinion it is the "Look" given by the lady to the man - remember the song by Dean Martin - "The Look". The look could chip a heart of stone. And once the heart is chipped - Love pours out and creates the link which lasts for ever 

SO I AGREE MEN GO FOR LOOKS!!!!

Here is the link to the song "The Look" by Dean Martin - CHECK IT OUT ON YOUTUBE - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=57PN3CpOSS8 and I hope you all like it.

What do WOMEN go for? I think they go where their heart takes them! No one can ever know why!!

AND THATS THAT!!

FELLOWSHIP FOR SAMMY

This is just to inform everyone that our son Little Sammy has now grown into a Big Fellow. In fact Stanford University was so happy with the Little Fellow that they decided to always call him "Fellow" and so they have even awarded him with a FELLOWSHIP ha ha ha.
We are thrilled that the focus of his research and fellowship is "HEALTH". I think that one day he may own a Drug Store too ha ha

Sonnet No 6 by me

SONNET NO 6

.                      by

.      Deepak Menon
.
The oceans be deep yet the Sea of Sorrow is deeper still

In which the lover from his love estranged, wallows
The mountains be high yet higher is the lonely tower still
From which the lover’s lonely gaze scans the hollows
Enervated by the calamity that knows no earthly parallel
Yet pervades the world of humanity in equal measure
The look or word that transforms heaven into fiery hell
Hurling into depths of sadness what once was pleasure
The sight of a vacuous smile upon the same upturned face
Now meaningless as it follows a vacant and empty look
The frantic nonchalance in the searching for just a trace
Of the raging storms that once his heart by force took
And in that fleeting moment, do stop the sands of time
Life losing its lustre, and the song of life – its rhyme.

Abha's Family Album

Baar Baar Dekho - Shammi Kapoor & Shakila & Keshto Mukherjee - China Town

And this little clip of the great song - is still so enchanting - devoid

of all the embellishments of the modern world of high technology

where the real artistic skills of the actor are lost or overshadowed

by highlights or special effects - this song shows every thing as it

actually was ... and I love the song ...

HARDWAR - THE HOLY CITY - ABHA DEEPAK VISIT APRIL 2011

And Abha's younger brother Alok - recently got promoted to Inspector General Of Police - a big feather in the cap for all of us - and we went to Hardwar where he is at present and met Abha's father - as fine and fit as ever with the same sense of humour which my brother always liked - and we also saw the new born calf to their Cow - just a few hours old it was - and my friend Vinod Kala's daughter Ritvika really went bonkers over the calf! And we had also visited Abha's sister Sadhana and her wonderful husband Ravi at their Nursing Home in Muzaffarnagar - by the way Abha was born in Muzaffarnagar and for one thing - you get terrific Kebabs there .. and thence we went on to Dehradun and had a lovely short break with Kala and Kavita - we all kept waving our hands in the air ... but that is another story ha ha

Mary Hopkin - Those Were The Days

And those days ended - yet we keep the amazing voice and
beautiful lyrics always alive in our hearts and our souls and
so we never let those days ever end while we are alive .. yes
Those were the days my friend and we shall never let them end!

Petula Clark ' This Is My Song' in Stereo

This is the original and best version of the immortal song
"This is my song - a Serenade to you" by Petula Clark which
went to the top of the charts in the late glorious dancing '60s
and it is this version of the song which I like the most .. and of
course this is a Serenade to you from me too ...
