Our blank blogs
(Preview)
Aviation may not be everyone’s cuppa. One of our bloggers said as much, in response to my mail seeking their thoughts of the bloggers on our list on a move to revamp the bloglist. Evidently, in its current format, Mymysore blogs do not appear to hold out much appeal, even for the blo...

Mysore Masala Poori
(Preview)

Global warming ? Not in Mysore

Mysore is sweltering and almost everyone I meet says this year has become unusually hot and, that too, very early. Come to think of it, I have always heard the same comment about the summer every year over the past twenty years. But, unbelievably, my lo...

Blogger Viji’s back, with a bang
(Preview)
Mr Vijendra Rao, Viji to pals, says he is back into blogging. Is that a promise, Mr Rao? If I remember right (can’t be sure, it was that long ago), he said he was into blogging to stay when he posted his first piece –‘E-effigy’. This was some six months back, give or take a few days. If someone takes th...

Cloning Bangalore, are we ?

A city that was once vibrant with music and culture; a city we once thought would keep pace with the changing times but some how would still manage to retain its old world charm (Venice in Italy, Bath in Britain have all achieved that balance, so why not our mahisha mandala?) - but, every time I visit Myso...

Would pigs sue our mayor ? Unlikely

'If Pigs Have a Say, They'd Sue the Mayor' - So I wrote an year back, when the pig menace was drummed up to be at its peak. The then mayor had made it a personal crusade to have pigs banished from the city limits. Nothing much happened. They are still out on streets, the pigs. I don't supp...

My take on Mysore's miseries

We have it from MGP (Mysore Grahakara Parishat) that there are at least 3,171 residents who believe that Mysore's most pressing problem is garbage disposal. Nearly as many of them give bad roads a higher rating on the city's chart of public miseries. As MGP secretary S.K. Ananda Thirtha put it, "Ther...
