dear all,
this is the blog we were speaking about (well, sagnik and trina, at any rate. i think...) so, since young (even by my standards, heh) unjustified insanity has put up a post already, i thought we might as well get some work done here.
since the blogmeet was where it all started, it'd be a good idea to post all your relevant posts here. trina? arnab? JAP? would you please please please do it?
(oh, damn! and blast. i didn't invite arnab. sheesh! me!)
right, then, JAP says, and i completely agree, that pujo posts everywhere is a brilliant idea. so, everybody who wrote anything about the pujos, please put it up here.
also, this isn't attempted racism (it's better to play safe, you never know) but will members please scout blogs and their own archives for their cal and bengali related posts? (g9's post on bongs spring immediately to mind...)
so, posts up ASAP, what?
and any changes to the blog name/template/settings? (i'm not over-fond of the name, so please suggest changes if you want to)

I agree with Great Bong
Kolkattar Rosogollas
Amazing name GB :D
Agreed.
Kolkatar (or Kolkattar!) Rosogollas sounds great!
Arnab - naa aantel naa keowra, this Rosogolla is SO Punj.
Aar ektu bhabo naa bhaiti.

J.A.P.
hmmm... can't decide now...
BTW, regarding the pujo posts... do we just link to the original posts, or do we copy/paste everything?
may i suggest :
maidan morons
banchharamer begoon
magis and megos
koi, amay ekta?
aar bolben na
keliye debo
monda mithai malai
mochhar kamor
KELIYE DEBO ALL THE WAY !!!
thing is, ami bhabchhilam...the name should perhaps be such as to figure in google searches for calcutta...
i love most names suggested, but...ektu bhebe dekho.
and no teen administrators, is the ground rule :D
WHAT?????
No teen admins??? WHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA????????
You're right about the Calcutta search bit though...
why don't we keep Keliye Debo as the subtitle?
hello can i pls contribute here..? pls pls pls? i wanna i wanna i wanna. pls, all nice ppl here? pls add me man.
kanti--shhh child, there there...
shayantani--sure, just send us your mail id.
biplab--are you drunk? ;D
I would like to tender my candidacy as a contributor. Pretty Please?
Why are all the proposed names in Bengali? Calcutta is a cosmopolitan metropolis, and many races, religions, languages and marwaris flourish here. Perhaps the name should reflect this and be in English, or an equally nuetral language, like, say, Afrikaans.
Any thoughts?
how about calcutta rules....err, ok no scrap, scrap.
but the google search thing is relevant, so maybe a cosmo name is in order.
and do we have to have the infernal word verific. thingey????pliss pliss let's not have it.
@ maru --
ok how bout
KAGUZUCHI!
(no this name isn't random)
email id's phukez@gmail.com
i suggest some more names
DHUR KATUA!
WAKAO~~
or simply
FAH-AUF!
Would it be unseemly to remind my esteemed fellow bloggers and Calcuttans of a certain long running theatrical revue debuting off-broadway and with sketches by Samuel Beckett and John Lennon which was entitled Oh!Calcutta!
The title might one add is from a pun on the French words "O quel cul t'as".....
and keeping in mind the over-excitable teenagers we have here I shall not translate.
ho hum..just a passing thought...
nono we must choose something original :)
Came here through 3tio Bishyo and UI..Good Idea guys..
Im not technically a Calcuttan anymore :( .. Not even a Blogger..
Waaaahhh....(crys rather loudly)
Babelfish - Bare-behinds do not excite teenagers anymore. Especially not in French.
UI - DHUR KATUA roxxx!!!
@rimi - why NOT teen admins???
Hi! Trust everyone had a
great (and wet) weekend :)
Calcutta rules sounds nice, Jaded. Why 'cancel'?
Could we switch the word verification off?
OYE PANTY!
speak for youself!
nobody has replied to prerona and me- we wanted to have the word verif. thingey removed and no one answered......hmph
prerona: tai tai??cal rules is nice? how sweet of you to say that!

jaded - thanks - i HATE the word verification thing. its really diff to get the words at times!
the word verification sucks. I prefer to manually delete spam from my blog.
Lets have a vote on whether the word verification should go.
kanti, jaded - thanks - i REALLY hate that thing too. I vote for no word verification.
Can you please allow me to be a member-contributor? My email ID is mailme.dena@gmail.com
