It’s Ganesha’s party and everyone’s invited

MUMBAI: Lord Ganesha has swept Mumbai off its feet, blending the eternal with the ephemeral, mythology with mobile phones and bhakti with business.

Braving bomb blasts and Bipasha Bashu, Mumbaikars poured out on the streets on Sunday to welcome the city’s popular deity.

Full story.

I swear the little bronze Ganesha statue on my worktable has had an odd grin this week...

The link still won't work for me - I just get this message - "The XML page cannot be displayed
Cannot view XML input using XSL style sheet." I might try and find the article by going to timesofindia.com...

*a few minutes later* o.k. found the article manually and I'm posting the html link here (as I just checked again and the xml is still not working for me, why I don't know) just in case someone else has the same problem - great article btw!
