I write this with apologies to the late Skeeter Davis, and because a one Mr. Kenneth Meade predicted that today,  September 23, 2017 would be the end of the world…..as we know it (add REM to the apology list).

I’ve had some discussions with mates, usually when they’ve had a few beers, about mental health and related issues.

The Durga Puja is not just a religious ceremony for Bengalis. To them, it is a cultural extravaganza, a carnival, and a riot of happiness that knows no caste, creed, color, religion or political affiliations. So, naturally, this has become an extremely lucrative opportunity to be exploited for economic gains by multiple stakeholders.
