Television and silence drives me nuts
Friday, October 5th, 2007Can any of you NRI’s please explain your logic of bashing our very own Sun TV??
I came home early on Monday evening and started channel surfing and all i get to see is how
(or why or whatever) Britney Spears lost custody of her child!!!
I’d rather see Sun Music and SCV for this. How high quality a news item is this from the ones covered by the likes of Nakheeran or Junior Vikatan??
Another thing about US. There is a peramaidi prevailing here. Unless you are of the introspective kind, you will soon get depressed. In chennai, you need not come out of your
apartment nor watch the clock to know that its 8:45 AM in the morning. As our cricket comentators keep saying, the atmosphere will be electric. Here it is like a low voltage bulb.
Even me, a guy who is as comfortable when alone as with people, ended up with a 3 hour
telephone conversation with my friend in LA just to beat the boredom. This is apart from the calls i make to IDC as part of my work.
Unless you have right company, US’s calmness can drive you nuts. Nothing desi about it. I guess that’s precisely the reason why those who visit the US feel like coming home in the first few months.
