Given my superior long term memory (for which i’ve paid a huge price in terms of an extremely bad short-term memory), I keep running this “this day that year” iteration in my head. On a certain day, I try and figure out what I did on the same day a few years back. Some memories [...]
Ok I thought this conversation merits a post. Given my writer’s block, I’ll just copy paste it here. And i’m adding some links to the conversation now. The counterparty to this conversation is of course sw_aadisht . You can find his blog here . //

If a girl is traveling pillion on a bike with a boy who is not her husband/boyfriend she should sit sideways – like you are forced to when you wear an undivided garment such as a sari or dhoti. Sitting straight (with one leg on either side) behind a guy who is not your guy [...]

Instead it was VRV who cracked in Orissa’s second innings, taking four wickets with five balls as they folded up for [...]
Two days to go for counting and declaration of results. I hereby stick my neck out and make my prediction. Modi will win. And I don’t think ideology has much to do with it. After Krishna and Chandrababu lost in 2004, and PVN got mauled in 1996, it has fashionable to say that development won’t [...]
some colleague in my office asked “so how is the new project? liking it?” I replied, “Do you follow cricket? Test cricket? When a batsman comes in with five overs to go in the day, he doesn’t aim to score runs. All he looks for is to play out the overs without any damage so [...]
I added yet another to my tally yesterday. I seem to have become an expert at this. Armed with a broom and a plastic stick, I go about my job slowly. Tapping the stick around on the floor, sometimes poking it into corners, I? try to force out the prey. And when it appears, the [...]
