Read a blog about names the other day. And yes some names you come across in real life are pretty funny and weird. Like at a bank I heard the teller calling out "Ben Hur" .. and then "Amoeba" for a famous bowling alley (in B'lore). I know its a popular hangout and all but Amoeba ??? Maybe the...
Windchimes sound so nice ...sweet little tinkles or some wooden pipes hitting each other to the rhythm of a soft breeze. But on a windy day .... you would like to pull it out of the neighbours window/balcony and throw it wherever. No other way to shut it up.
Just like the street dogs .....
As you might have figured out by now, I am concerned about my health and try to do all that I can to preserve it and not let the family history repeat itself. Get paranoid bout thoughts of BP, sugar, acidity, arthritis what not in the years to come. No... no ... I am not a hypochondriac or...
Ever wondered how many weirdos are there in the whole wide world? or the world wide web ? Say you have n weirdos in ther real world and all of them have internet access, how many of them will take their weirdness to the realms of cyberworld as well ? The point is would an average real world...
The ever familiar sight of grey skies after a long dry and dreary summer. Well not quite dry due to some mid summer rains but the average Indian's affair with monsoon has an altogether different and special charm.
Day or night, its alwas a beautiful sight. And then its a bonus if it rains...
I generally like posting original stuff here ... just not upto it today. This story is one I would want to remember for a long time.

For example, in Year 1 that useless letter "c" would be dropped to be replased either by "k" or "s", and likewise "x" would no longer be part of the alphabet. The only kase in which "c" would be retained would be the "ch" formation, which will be dealt with later.

This is probably the first thing one says when he/she encounters someone in the most unexpected place (and in all likelihood with someone he/she does not wish to be seen). Like an ad of Pepe Jeans once used to read " The world is filled with people we hope we will never meet.
So does the...
Like you all know I am a novice blogger. Never claimed to be a seasoned one. My flair for writing (leave alone creative writing) has always been pathetic. Always watched the pen fall asleep while writing any essays..felt more like penning lousy lullabys. Dont need a pen to blog Phew!

I dont think we can thank the guy who discovered emoticons and smiles enough. What started only with web-based communication read email and chat has now expanded its influence into more advanced forms like SMS. And even real life. They have certainly added a personal dimension to plain-text...
In fond memory of someone who always asked me to is-mail. :) Been 12 long
yrs!
A smile, as we all know, is something we can wear and always look good. There is something about a smile that actually makes you want to smile along.....
Was dining with a group of friends one mid-summer evening. At the adjacent table was a family of three mother, her daughter and son and...
I have made up my mind to add a post to my blog, but then there seems to be a rush hour of thought traffic and my blog didnt quite get its clearance and security entourage. Even the services of a jammer wasnt available. So my poor lil blog idea was totally out of sorts...more like Micheal...
Goodness gracious. I am like 3 posts old and I havent talked about this cool obsession of mine. Just so you know in real life I would normally introduce myself like this "Hi, I love frappe, my name is .... " No kidding! Its pretty ironic that I chose now to talke about frappe(and froth). But I...
Last Sunday, the maid who works in my house came upto me and asked me if I could help her out. She is not your regular foul-mouthed, lazy kaam chor kinda maid, basically minds her own business and doesnt indulge any kinda small talk or neighbours' gossip. So I asked her what is it that she...
