Steve Buscemi’s Night Out In Colombo


Mr. Pink in the box

House Of Fashion sells these Reservoir Dogs action figures, in the kids section. If you’re unfamiliar, it’s an extremely violent Quentin Tarantino movie. I bought Mr. Pink, which is Steve Buscemi. He comes with a coffee cup, cigarettes, lighter and briefcase. I think the character had some issues with guns, so he’s the only one without. It’s a lovely toy really, looks just like Steve Buscemi, except with a six pack. I don’t know. My friend stripped him and said she was going to take him to bed. So anyways, he was in town so we decided to show Mr. Buscemi around.


Mr. Pink gets a light.

There are more images of grown-ups playing with dolls if you have some perverse interest.

The doll reminds me of Robert Downey Jr. in Iron Man! :)

  • jcnars: @rubbish, you hit the coin. Indi seems to have sold his soul of late. Sucking up to the govt. like a pro. @girigor, talking loud doesn't always means talking sense. We are in a period between wars, if: a) nuts like you don't STFU and b) china is allowed a naval base in SL....
  • Girigoris the One: Tamils are being mistreated, Sinhalese should understand blah blah blah Yoy say "But for the sinhalese people, they find it good that the armed forces are around because almost all of them are sinhalese and past experience shows they will favour their own people, sadly." Tell me when the LTTE was around, did they even allow normal Sinhalese peeps to walk in to their area freely? Where were you then? Did you complain to the LTTE why...
  • myil selvan: dear indi, You as a Canadian sinhalese may find it hard to comprehend the nature of militarization. But for the sinhalese people, they find it good that the armed forces are around because almost all of them are sinhalese and past experience shows they will favour their own people, sadly. But for the Tamil people, they see it as an occupying force not interested in their welfare but only in holding real-estate. The coming days, months are...

Did Little Children Create God?:
  • Shammi: It's funny the way most of the stories and rituals in the bible have so much in common with legends of more ancient pagan civilizations. Bits of the tales of Gilgamesh, Dionysus et al are mirrored in the descriptioons of Noah, Moses, Jesus, the Holy Trinity and the holy family etc., even a trace of Solomon reflected in Mahoshada of the jataka tales. They could've been a little more creative at least. I think I'm...

  • Kids Say: No, little children didn't create god - insecure and ignorant people did. Believing in and worshipping a magical invisible creature in the sky gives a lot of people comfort and security. That said, little children can be wonderfully creative. Have you seen the show "Kids Say the Darndest Things"? (You can watch clips of the show on youtube). This sounds like something from that show: Christianity is the belief that a cosmic Jewish zombie who...

Othello:
  • Electra: Actually race has little to do with what Othello is actually about. Of course it does make an appearance here and there, but it's possible that the race theme has been slightly over-analysed (as is most of Shakespeare's work) by later interpreters. However - it deals with the equally potent themes of jealousy, obsession, paranoia, the idea of masculinity. To me those are the things that makes Othello a truly remarkable account of what is...

Einstein’s Night On The Town

I'm not making a habit of this or anything, but someone got me an action figure of Einstein. This are some photos of him in action, with Barbie and friends. I read on the back of the box that he discovered special relativity when he was 26, which disturbs me greatly. I'm 27 and still playing with dolls.

This Is Pretty Much How I Feel About Colombo

Deshan has a photo print of the beach. As you look closer you can see the garbage. That's the Colombo I know. Above is a photo by Tharindu Amunugama (u4j10.wordpress.com). It also captures a bit of how Colombo feels to me. I like walking the streets. You can see more. Down my street the National Hospital burns medical waste at night. During the rains a girl got swept into a storm drain and died. It's

Double Long Exposure

This is a double exposure. The shutter is open for 20 seconds. For the first 10 the subject holds a pose. Then they jump and held another pose. In this case the subject got too ambitious and fell over so there are actually three exposures. This was at night, after the sun had set over the Kalutara hills. The light you see on the plants is not visible to the naked eye. All we saw

Mannar Is Pretty Sweet

I won't go into it into too much detail, but Mannar is a paradise. It's the point of Sri Lanka closest to India, a little spit off the edge of the island. It's a bit trouble to get to. We hammered my poor Toyota hatchback through the rape road through Wilpattu National Park (which by all accounts should be illegal) and then down an impressionistic patch of rubble and despair to Mannar. The town itself
