If regulars of this blog are wondering at the reasons behind the reduced output of this blog in the previous days, including no song yesterday, the reason is, I am at a place now where access to internet, especially of the required speed is at a premium. This is in addition to the fact that I am not in a position to get adequate access to internet either. Hopefully things will begin to look up in coming days.

When one talked of “Black Cats” two decades ago, one meant the elite commandos who protect VVIPs. These days they are called SPG (special protection group). But in the distant past, black Cat actually meant “kaali billi”, and there was this belief that a black cat crossing your path when you are going out somewhere was bad omen. As it is, I have a black cat for a pet and that black cat must have crossed my path hundreds of time by now, that is when it is not seated on places like my lap, my laptop, sofa, bed, mat etc.

Yesterday this blog reached 5000 songs. Today is 14th november, which is celebrated as the children’s day in India. The day is over and it is night time, and not a single song has been discussed on this occasion !
No, I have neither run out of steam nor I have forgotten about this day. In fact I ensured that the 5000 th song was discussed one day advance so as to keep 14th november free for children’s songs. It is just that I was neglecting several important tasks which I completed in the day time. Now I have time to discuss songs for today. It may be too late for the real children, but those who are young at heart (which includes lots of readers of this blog), the day is not yet over. So I will try and discuss a few songs on the occasion as long as it is still 14th november in India. so I still have more than four hours at my disposal. 🙂
