This building - Saks - is bang opposite the Rockefeller Center. And it is glowing !!..
We actually went there to see the decorations at the Rockefeller Center.. and this was the bonus..
I have always wanted to visit the Apple Store.. and so Brodie and I hatched a plan to visit their flagship store downtown in Fifthe Avenue. It is bang opposite the Plaza Hotel.. and it is the most populous areas in New York.. Have a look at the mindblowing design of Apple's creation..
This is the flagship Apple Store in Fifth Avenue in NY. This is probably the most crowded store I have ever seen in the whole of America. Go Apple..!!
Its got a glass staircase circling down and a glass lift to take you up. The glass cube is on ground level.. and the rest of the store is underground.. Pretty cool, huh ?
Thats later in the evening.. on 24th December.. The Store was restocking.. and it was vacated for about half an hour.. so the crowd was just loitering outside..
Just look at the crowd inside.. Believe me.. this is the most crowded store I have ever seen..
Of course there were a ton of limousines outside Memphis airport, but I had the camera ready for this one..
Tom was trying to saddle one of the horses to ride it.. but the horse was in no mood to let him do it..
All the photos that I have taken are here below..
Enjoy all of them..

India and its people have a way of turning everything on its head...Take a look at the internet..
The internet, when it became mainstream, ate into the revenues and marketshare of magazanies, tv shows, films and music and newspapers...The traditional media began to die in the wake of the Internet behemoth...People would rather love to notice an ad on a website and follow thru than see the same ad in a newspaper and follow thru...
In India however, the reverse is happening...
We have internet companies advertising in the papers, on the radio and on tv !!!!
WTF is happening ???
Now remember that I am writing this post with a white flag in my hand...I already surrender to those Casanovas who have their own melodious ways of spending time with their girlfriends and romantic interests...Following is my consideration...The only way to be happy with your love interest is to do other (read non-romantic) activities together.
Tell me...how many times can both of you on a bike ride in the evening Mumbai traffic ..? How many times can you two eat out..?? How many movies can both of you tolerate (after you're done tolerating each other) ?...After a couple of weeks...time spent at the coffee house will feel like time spent in the local train...
What I am thinking is that the best way to keep the level of excitement going on is to do something constructive and profitable together...
Going to drawing class...
Joining a dancing class...
Joining a swimming pool (wow!)..
Going out of the city on your bike or car early morning and return late night...
Coach kindergarten children for 100-metre races...
These things will help each other to discover the hidden things...things that will never surface in the college basement or in the canteen or in the coffee shop...
Love you all...
Why not have a plugin for WinAmp / iTunes / VLC which fiddles with the equalizer settings ??
Now see...songs bought from the iTunes Store have full metadata in them...and generally most other songs too have their metadata within them...However, I am concerned with only the genre of the song.
Why not have an EQ which shall set itself according to the genre of the song being played ??...When a rock is on...set the EQ to Rock...during a BackStreet Boys song...set it to Blues...and so on..
What say you ..??
