Magnets
Magnifying glasses, binoculars and prisms
Maggi (yes,I loved the whole slurping thing!) and wobbly jello and jujubes
Escalators
Dragonflies,tadpoles,goldfish and caterpillars and flies constantly rubbing their legs together as if to clean up before sitting on a trashcan
Ruminating cows (I still wonder what they think of all day long?)
Stray dogs hurrying along sidewalks (where were they rushing off to?)
Kaleidoscopes created by petrol slicks on water
And of course- Rainbows!

Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na
Ok! I will club the next person who tells me that the lyrics of Rock On are so cool! and Farhan's voice is sooooooooo well suited to the rock genre..Poor Dylan and Nickelback! Duh!!!! The movie was fine, heavy on DCH inspiration - a cool gang of friends who split, thanks to a misunderstanding betn a couple of them,an uber- rich unhappy guy(Aamir/Farhan), a happy-go-lucky flirt (Saif/Purab), one intense introvert (Akshaye/Arjun), the whole Goa angle, the dark minimalistic apartment , a terminally ill person who brings these friends back together (Dimple/Luke) etc.. I guess the movie again works coz it again takes folks to back to rose-tinted nostalgia and gives some cultish trends for the younger lot to sport ....I am writing all this now coz I am sick of people who go on and on about the songs ...I am not a rock know-it all but puhlease don't tell me that Farhan sang better than that Chakravyuh guy! I loved the nasal smoothness of Dominique Cerejo 's voice in Ye Tumhari Meri Baatein though! And I loved Arjun's long locks in the last concert!
P.S - On the same ranting note, I also totally disagree with people who put Atif Aslam in the same league as Shaan /KK.. listen to him singing live guys! he can't carry a tune to save the whales!! Himesh is much better!! Phew!!! I feel much better now
