The Good Lei: July 2006
http://goodlei.blogspot.com/2006_07_01_archive.html
Rahul's blog from Honolulu, Paradise, circa 2005-2007. Now from Manhattan. Sunday, July 30, 2006. The Interpreter (Sean Penn, Nicole Kidman). 6/10 This is not a bad movie, but more of the pass-time type. Nice shots of the UN and some mild US-bashing which is always a good thing. Further developments occur which I will keep secret in order to be less of a spoiler. The movie is reasonably slick, but falters a bit near the end. Watch it at the dollar theater. Posted by rahul @ 11:16 PM. Who is the bad boy?

The Good Lei: September 2006

Rahul's blog from Honolulu, Paradise, circa 2005-2007. Now from Manhattan. Sunday, September 17, 2006. 75/10 This is the coffee shop on Waialae and 12th avenue. I spend quite a bit of my time there with a laptop or a good book. From the food point of view, the situation is not so rosy. The sandwiches and burgers are mediocre and best avoided. I recall a hot melt with such poor qualiy pastrami that one would need a crocodile's jaws to break off a piece. The cookies are quite good though, espec...Concernin...

The Good Lei: February 2006

Rahul's blog from Honolulu, Paradise, circa 2005-2007. Now from Manhattan. Monday, February 06, 2006. 75/10 This is Fernando Meirelles latest movie based on the novel by John Le Carre. It is essentially a romantic thriller mixed with a message of neo-colonial exploitation of africa - this time by a global pharmaceutical company. Posted by rahul @ 8:56 PM.

The Good Lei: May 2006
http://goodlei.blogspot.com/2006_05_01_archive.html
Rahul's blog from Honolulu, Paradise, circa 2005-2007. Now from Manhattan. Wednesday, May 03, 2006. India Cafe, India House and Maharani. Well, it's been a long time since I blogged. Too many life un-changing events have been going on lately to leave space for serious reviewing. Been to Zaffron. It is buffet-only with average dishes and $20 for that. Pointless. With the addition of the on-campus take-out place, and further visits, I say now that India Cafe is better than India House. The price is reasona...

Rahul's blog from Honolulu, Paradise, circa 2005-2007. Now from Manhattan. Friday, August 18, 2006. OK so I seriously wish I lived in a time where I could read the news without coming across any middle eastern events. Come to think of it, I've been forced to read this stuff for almost my entire adult life. Posted by rahul @ 7:20 PM. Honolulu, Hawaii, United States. View my complete profile.

The Good Lei: December 2005
http://goodlei.blogspot.com/2005_12_01_archive.html
Rahul's blog from Honolulu, Paradise, circa 2005-2007. Now from Manhattan. Friday, December 23, 2005. The clientele is nothing much to write home about either. There were a bunch of Army guys doing the persistent-grope thing with some girls in our group. Now that could be an aberration, but I believe nightclubs are sort of like geishas - they attract a certain type which become fixtures. Posted by rahul @ 1:25 PM. Thursday, December 22, 2005. The Namesake" by Jhumpa Lahiri. I suppose anyone who has grown...

The Good Lei: March 2006
http://goodlei.blogspot.com/2006_03_01_archive.html
Rahul's blog from Honolulu, Paradise, circa 2005-2007. Now from Manhattan. Monday, March 13, 2006. As Crude As It Gets. First of all, every problem doesn't necessarily have a solution regardless of what homely wisdom says. Sometimes the choice is between things that make the problem worse and things that delay the inevitable. Day, and there is no known source of energy which is so abundant and delivers quite the same punch. We will have to go back to a less-mechanized era one day and the world's popu...

The Good Lei: January 2006

Rahul's blog from Honolulu, Paradise, circa 2005-2007. Now from Manhattan. Tuesday, January 31, 2006. So, what's up with Iran? Well, I am located in a part of the world where I have no right to even be thinking about this. I should just be surfing and chasing wimmen. But despite my efforts at avoiding anything remotely connected to the real world, it has come to my attention that there is lot of Iran-related crap buzzing around. It seems that all of a sudden the Iranians have gone berserk. And that's how...

The Good Lei: June 2006
http://goodlei.blogspot.com/2006_06_01_archive.html
Rahul's blog from Honolulu, Paradise, circa 2005-2007. Now from Manhattan. Monday, June 19, 2006. As part of my ongoing series of in-depth articles on international affairs (see "So, what's up with Iran? Below) , it's time to tackle the latest North Korean missile crisis. The NK missile goes by the name of "Taepodong" which means "Big Cannon" in Korean. However, strangely enough Taepodong is what the Americans call it,. Hurt and unhappy over this whole mess, one of Bush's men said, "For our part,. Perhap...

Rahul's blog from Honolulu, Paradise, circa 2005-2007. Now from Manhattan. Monday, October 16, 2006. 8/10 This is a great place for Italian food located on Waialae avenue - same block as Coffee Talk. Yep That's the other weird thing about the place. Posted by rahul @ 10:57 PM. Monday, October 09, 2006. Jamiroquai, Cosmic girl. Farewell. Even I can't bridge those light years.). I must've died and gone to heaven. Cos it was a quarter past eleven. On a Saturday in 1999. Right across from where I'm standing.
