Thanks for listening to my recordings. I’m immersed in Hindustani classical music these days, but I’m glad my other stuff still has shelf life. I should credit Chris Linnane for his brilliant cover which motivated my Smiths track. I really covered his cover. I appreciate the comments. Please be prepared to send me money one day when I ask you for it. All the best!

Krazy Ass Desi,

could you be the Punjabi Morrisey?

Highly unlikely in all aspects. Trust me.

Jai, You're so sensitive and progressive..could you be the Punjabi Morrisey?

People, While I enjoy me some Morrisey, let's not forgot his schtick, his longings for a white working-class England, this is the man who wrote to Pakis, "life is hard enough when you belong here, his ode to Bongs in Platforms but thankfully he got love for American black lesbians.

Another reason why I want you to buy me this CD is because I don't want to spend the money to buy it myself.

You are persistant! Fine, the cursed thing shall be yours! Don’t tell me I didn’t warn you when your ears start to bleed

The only reason why I want this CD so much is that if one day I get my shaadi done, I am going to play it at the wedding ceremony in honor of my roots.

I doubt that it could make my ears bleed. I’m Gujurati yaar, and to hear Patel Rap will make me stand tall with pride, move me to tears and make me gulp back all this emotion welling up in my throat…. We’ve come such a long way since Gandhi…

But you didn’t say anything about the Patel Rap CD. Now, are you going to buy it for me, or what?

This ain't no UCD, indeed. Let me guess...you wanted to drop the H-bomb or similar, didn't you? Anyway, it's a little late to spank someone goodbye. Manish has left the bunker.

The connection between wanting to drop the "H-Bomb" or similar and this not being UCD is beyond me.

Someone's trying to troll.

Not to be mean or anything, but this ain't no UC Davis. This is SM, and we should give Manish one spanking farewell that he will never forget.

CAD,

Only if Charlie Sheen decides to sue me for inadvertantly giving his show free publicity on a global desi discussion forum

…..The latter, of course, is something I have no problem doing. Two and a Half Men is a fantastic show, one of my favourite TV programmes, and everyone should watch it.

I could cheerfully quote snappy one-liners by Charlie Sheen’s character all day

Jai:

Okay, I admit it, that was another quote from Two and a Half Men.

Looks like someone is following in Kaavya's footsteps!!
