So, what are you all doing to celebrate the return of Lord Rama?
I'm going to look for a good Indian restaurant.

Actually the occasion is the celebration of Lord Krishna's victory over the demon Naragasur.

It is the most popular festival for Indians.
Well, happy Diwali to all!
Plus, this way I've learnt something today. :)
I can get drunk to celebrate this Diwali majigger right?
Though a non-believer, I say have a good one. In particular if its the one with the fireworks and the like.

I shall spend the night defending against the War on Diwali! Seeking out those who removed the "Rama" from the "ramalamadingdong", and then . . .
Doing . . . something . . . with them . . .
I actually never could understand what the other lyrics were about, something to do with the linoleum flooring at a disco or Transformers, I guess.
You probably have better musical taste then me, and so I can only offer this (http://www.sing365.com/music/lyric.nsf/Deceptacon-lyrics-Le-Tigre/602CF246104A709C48256C8100244A00), by way of explanation.

Yay. Diwali. Living in an area with a fairly large Hindu population, this means I'm not going to get a decent night's sleep for the next 3 weeks. :(

LOL, an indian couple in my apartment building has two red swastikas connected by a red line across their doorstep. Everytime someone moves out I'm like "please let a jew move in, oh pleeeease let it be a jew"

I used to live in a pretty multicultural neck of the woods, but since moving onto the campus of Lancaster (more like Lancracker) University, I haven't heard a single firework.
Which is a shame because Divali is one of my favourite holidays, I'm going to try and get my flatmates together tomorrow for a meal down at the campus Indian.
