Dog Driver
Spotted this dog driving a BMW !!
Whatever I like in this space, it's my profile.
He sits with is old school typewriter in various corners of San Francisco and can write an original poem for you/about you anytime..
Dis-assembling is always easy :) I hope I can assemble it all back !
After I disassembled the muffler and all, realized I am missing one tool to remove the part I need to replace in the scooter !!

I went to the CNY Chinatown Flower festival on Sunday and got this new orchid plant from there. It is customary for the Chinese to decorate their homes with bright-coloured plants for Chinese New Year, a tradition which symbolises rebirth, growth, happiness, good fortune and prosperity, among others. The Orchid represents love, luxury, beauty, strength and refinement, virility and long life. Hopefully this year of the Rabbit will have a lot of these things in store for me :)
Happy Chinese New Year to all !!
I was chatting with a friend today and I remembered this beautiful poem - 'Mignonne, allons voir si la rose' by the famous french poet - Ronsard. I had studied that poem in French Literature class in high school. It's about plucking life while life is still abundant and young - the main theme of the poem is Carpe Diem and somehow I just remembered it today and wanted to share it back :)

Mignonne, allons voir si la rose
Translated in English, but somewhow it does not seem as nice as the french version and convey the same feelings :) (I copied from this site -- http://www.recmusic.org/lieder/get_text.html?TextId=13861)
Sweetheart, let us see if the rose
that only this morning unfolded
its scarlet dress in the sun
has lost, at vesper-time,
the folds of its scarlet dress
and its colour, so like yours.
