Another thing about Vijay

He volunteers at an orphanage. Evil.

I am into these dogs!

Photos, missing from your collection!

Filed under: India — Chris @ 5:22 am

Just so you know, I haven’t been blogging every single picture I take. Not every photo I take necessarily has universal appeal and I recognize that. Nevertheless, completists can subscribe to my Flickr RSS feed or bookmark http://www.flickr.com/photos/chrisandhilleary.

Also too funny (but kind of sad)

Harry Reid, Senate Minority Choker

Filed under: India — Chris @ 4:37 am

This counts neither as original political analysis, nor as particularly relevant to what I usually blog about, the this story is too funny not to link to. Harry Reid: a man who does not like to be bribed.

My Nail Clippers

Filed under: India — Chris @ 3:45 pm

Why would the houseboy steal my nail clippers? Is he just trying to fuck with me?

My Indian(-American) Doppelganger

My Indian (-American) Doppelganger

I only just realized that my fellow intern Vijay is my doppelganger. (Or perhaps he is the Christopher Conway of Earth-A.) Hair: check. Glasses: check. Height (impossibly tall): check. Smile: check. Blue checked shirt: check.

So physically, we’re identical. Only I’m all pinkish sweetness and light, and he’s pure brown evil. I like Okkervil River; he likes Aphex Twin. I like Dre; he likes D. On Monday night, he was chased by a pack of wild dogs; at the same time, I was NOT being chased by a pack of wild dogs. (Wild dogs hate evil.)

Fate has a plan for us. He must be destroyed.

Virtual Desktops

Filed under: Not Tech — Chris @ 8:47 am

I grew accustomed to them in GNUstep. I came to depend on them in Gnome. Somehow, I can live without them on my Mac. I can’t live without them in Windows XP. Too many damn windows!
