Much A- blog about nothing ...

This is one of the three blogs I maintain in parallel. The other two have been plagued by comments from people whom I know IRL. Hence ... Iam forced to start something new where I could express my thoughts which, I believe, should stay away from the people, whom I talk to everyday. The one I started with started 5 years ago and mainly fed a not so Indian audience. ( Back then the blogs were not invented ... they were just plain old html journals, powered by automatic scripting engines running on perl or cgi .. )
The second was where I used to write my philosophies on life. Now Iam slowly moving over to a more convenient and one-button-click-world. Its more like switching over from black-and-white text based unix system to 3.1 million color Windows XP ! and somehow I dont loose the multiple joys of switching back and forth my blogs each has a taste, aroma and style of its own . Talk about parallel journalism :-)

He becomes drunk on the cologne, and his mother finds him the next morning, in a puddle of his vomit, in a cove of the bay where drowning victims are known to wash ashore" - Love in the time of Cholera
