Identity

Naga Totem Pole (Nagaland, India)

Native American/Red Indian Totem Pole (USA)

Totem is about identity and totem poles and symbols distinguish tribes from each other in certain parts of the world. What is fascinating is that some of these totems made halfway across the globe are remarkably identical in their stylisation.

Who's to say who were the original creators of these marks of identity! Did it crop up simultaneously across the human race - the need to be identified for various reasons or did one start & the rest emulated and copied!

The more we try to look for our differences, the more similarities we shall find.

hrithik v/s hugh


oooh... these two handsome hunkies... me likes. They both have these AMAZING biceps and of course are drop dead georgeous!! And last night whilst I was watching Wolverine, I realised that Hrithik interestingly has a similar body structure to Hugh Jackman! Long lost brothers perhaps ;-)
so i have also added these 2 other photos that are just great eye candy!

Poster boys!


Doesn't Percy Jackson in Lightning Thief look like Harry Potter from behind... they must be related... Lightning Thief long lost brother of Harry Potter... they both yield strange looking wands/lightning rods, & have odd hairdos... not to mention the posters from Lightning Thief bear an uncanny resemblance - colours, deep staring glazed over looks, to Harry Potter-Goblet of Fire movie posters... hmmm... one would expect some originality but what the heck. I hope this new movie about this Lightning Thief is entertaining!
