After I get back home from Office I have got addicted to this jaytalking of Jay Leno from the Tonite show. His show is just the right stuff to end your day on a hilarious note. His show puts my mind in the right perspective so that I can hit the bed with some lighter vein.
In side story
Had been to Hubli/Dharwad my native last week and believe me it was a very refreshing experience to visit Ancestral roots. In short I was among people who speak my native language day in and day out. I could really connect to the people and the language as Dharwad kannada is my Mother Tongue. Had been to my Native after 9 years which made this a special moment.
but the unfortunate thing this region faces is Zero development and growth. The State Government is too very Bangalore/Mysore/Mandya/Hassan centric and North Karntaka is a Majorly neglected lot. The IT Park built there gathers dust even as Millions are spent only in this small Concrete village called Bangalore.
For north karnataka people bangalore is the only place to hit for jobs. Real Estate prices are a dampner for other kannadigas in bangalore. I don't see a change in the future also as Politicians are Bangalore centric and all that matters is a quick buck for them as long as the Colaition government continues. Nobody thinks beyond bangalore or maybe even beyond a radius 100/200 kms.
Till then North Karnataka people have to bear the high costs of living here and survive in bangalore. Though there are many(many) North karnataka people in Bangalore nobody can start a company in Hubli due to lack of Infrastructure support and political will @ the Vidhan Soudha.

Dude...HDMC has allotted 25 acres land at highly subsidised proces in Hubli, 6 companies have will be starting out in the nexy 12 to 24 months, a friend of mine from B'lore has been allotted 2.5 acres. Heard that 24x7customer BPO already employs 400+ people in Hubli.
Me thinks for Hubli region to take off, we need a critical mass of 2000+ people mostly working in same kind of business in IT.
But then, the region has seen too many false starts, and we can only hope this one is the real McCoy.
