Have put up a short post on it. Fingers crossed for the Oscars, although I do think the subject/message is a little tired for western sensibilities...(in fact, in 1985 there was an After School Special about dyslexia...)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2252471958376602325.post-76625193868425615772008-10-29T09:11:00.001-07:002008-10-29T09:11:00.001-07:00That makes me feel better somehow- since thats the...That makes me feel better somehow- since thats the same anxiety I have when I cant make myself stand either of the Rks- Raj Kapoor and Rajesh Khanna- "what is wrong with me"?
