My uncle dancing like a maniac is the greatest thing I've ever seen on YouTube.

Olympics Fever

I didn't really plan on watching any of the Olympics, but Men's Synchronized Diving may be the hottest thing I've ever seen. The skills. The physiques. The low rise Speedos.
Wow.
Wow.

Is Singh the Kinng?
Literally from the first moment I landed in India, I started hearing about the movie Singh is Kinng (yes, that's actually how it's spelled). I had heard a little bit about it before I left the U.S., in fact, but the real media overload began when my cousin and his wife picked us up at the airport in Bombay and immediately started blasting the soundtrack.
"It's rocking," my bhabhi explained. She'd know -- she works for the film's distribution company.
The music, while slightly comical (hearing Snoop Dogg rap the phrase "Singh is the king" is pretty funny. Also hearing Akshay Kumar try to sound hard core -- or is is hard Kaur? -- is ridiculous), is quite rocking.
The question I (and apparently many others) have is "What the hell is Snoop Dogg saying in the middle of the song?"
Interpretations have ranged from, "Buttocks, buttocks, I'm trying to slap my buttocks," to "Whaddup, bhaddup," to "Difficult to make out what he is saying."
Snoop, if you read this, please clue me in.
I'm seeing the movie tonight (back in the Bay) -- perhaps some light will be shed at that time.
