Attention to Retail
Sunday January 30th 2005, 11:49 pm . Filed under: Uncategorized

Was aimlessly flipping through the channels the other night before i planned to doze off ( as i do ) and paused at a Denzel Washington interview in which he was asked ‘how it felt to be considered a sex symbol’ – to this, his witty retort was – “if in life you are ever intimidated by anybody – just imagine them sitting on the toilet with their pants rolled down……and if you are still intimidated – then you seriously have a problem”

From the top of my head… i can imagine quite a few people who i thought to be intimidating earlier – not so anymore.
Try it !! ;P

The Dubai Shopping Festival has been raging on for the past few weeks now and i am sooo glad that i dont have to fight the dreadful traffic anymore (thanks to my new office/studio being located in Sharjah). However, that hasnt quite taken me away from my attention to retail – bought myself these pair of shoes that i’d been dying to buy for a while now… (thats right!! i have developed a little bit of a shoe fetish in the past one year or so – and exhousemate Peter had quite a bit to do with that… so Peter if you are reading this – DAMN YOU !! ;P )

and oh!! aha !! i alsoooo got meself the iPOD !! yipppeee finally!
(i asked Prashant to get it for me from New York and although my wallet was hoping that he would forget – that wasn’t quite the case…. anyway i had been perving over it for a while now and it was only a matter of time)

needless to say that i am quite broke now.. so charity, donations and dinners are most welcome ;P

    denzel is a sneaky cow, cause he actually paraphrased something that French philosopher Montaigne said (he used to get intimidated by the so-called intellectuals and the aristocrats and figured that imagining them attending to natures call or having sex would just make them look so much more human). and i agree, it works!

    however, i can picture everyone doing ‘human’ stuff except the queen.

    i don’t think she takes a dump. EVER.

    and lets not even talk about sex.
