Why? Why that title?!

Two things:

A) Favorite song.
B) I'm studying to become a Chartered Accountant. ;)

Here is the song, by Bufallo Springfield, and you might just want to think of the '60s hippie era to know what the song really means!
And hey, its a YouTube link with a video that shouldn't ever be taken seriously. I mean, really, the black and white pictures are cool, but why?! Why on this video?!

And about the CA thingy, I guess it has more to do with the fact that after reading The Undercover Economist, I'm starting to think in real terms about the 'worth' of everything. What I like about this book is that Tim Harford, the author, really wants you to understand what he'd like to say.
I've been trying to do same shit, only numerically, on my CA syllabus, and I'd never get it right. On a platonic level, in both the cases, I'm only trying to find the 'worth' of things, but Tim Harford does it better than most FCAs and ACAs earning huge royalty from my hatred of unnecessarily complicated stuff. Or maybe I just like the way he's analyzed things, and I've started doing that too.

So, while there is no Starbucks
in India,
I now know why I pay
so much for my cuppa at CCD.

But what the hell, the best friend and I have been sitting at CCD for hours on a sunny day, with a bitter espresso (its the cheapest thing on the menu and we were broke) discussing the computation of taxable income for Mr X, Mr Y, Miss S, Mr A who is a senior citizen, Miss C who is female assessee (this in the text has been mentioned as a hidden adjustment :P).

Getting back to the topic, this is how I decided the blog title..
More on that purple haze some other time..!
