the eternal cycle goes on - plenty of conspiracies around

not of hell and inferno etc. Just that of life, esp on chowk. after a long leave from chowk and roaming the world, I once again washed up on these shores. And surprise surprise life is just the same. The same old haggles, fights etc. It is not salim Vs Chowk-staff but the women Vs women (as in spy vs spy from MAD). The same old lines, with just the gender changed. Atleast its easy in english, just change his to her, him to she etc not like in Asiactic languages where even the adjectives, adverbs, verbs etc change with gender. The nics fighting should thank their lucky stars that they donot have to rewrite the old fight dialogues!

Interestingly there are two theories of note circulating
(a) Arjun_m is the owner of chowk
(b) salim is an Indian

both of these are interesting for I could add another set to these

(a) Arjun_m and salim are one and the same
(b) that this is a set of people coordinating their activities (you can infer this if you read the interacts closely as a continuous stream - the language, etc are marginally different)
(c) the veeresh malik and mullah omar are behind the eve-chasing routines with mantolives somewhere in the frame

there you have it. You can ofcourse add more to this list.
