Toon Trouble
I recently read an article (http://www.slate.com/id/2135661/) that said the issue was not about giving form to the Prophet, but about showing him in an unfavorable light. That made some sense, but then why didn't people make a big fuss outta this one? Im just curious... Maybe there isn't enough bandwidth in India to achieve critical mass for creating trouble?!
I am sure I've seen another cartoon on Ganesha with a Nuclear bomb. But then, don't you not find this funny? (The following image is by Daryl Cagle - cartoonist at cagle.slate.msn.com)

'That' didn't make too much sense to me (I mean the cartoons aren't remotely tasteful or funny either, but for ...'s sake just ignore them and dont buy that Danish newspaper). Another article on slate makes more sense to me. Anyway that is why I'm really glad that other people are not fussing abt this Ganesha cartoon (and yeah, it is sort of funny).
tch tch... too serious..
thank you for the info :)
does ravioli pasta, with homemade sauce, served with cold thai ice-tea sounds good to you?
i hope you're having a dandy time with your phd supervisor!

happy valentine's day to you. who's going to be your valentine? :) feliz dia de san valenti, para ti *kisses*
