I was telling a friend about the need to find your own expression when it comes to writing when the discussion took a sudden turn towards a rather unexpected aspect though I wouldn’t call it entirely bizarre. ‘You can be comfortable with only your style of writing,’ I said, ‘and this comes only when you...
Trip: London. May-July 2010. It was never going to be an ordinary day… a day when we discovered an otherwise invisible bond between humans, birds, and animals! It is difficult to forget a date when you’ve met the friendliest of giant squirrels in the world. So quite expectedly, I too remember the 18th of...
Frankly, I loved the book immensely because it gave me all the reasons to have a hearty hoot after every few hundred words… and mind you, this book isn’t in the comedy genre at all. It is supposedly a serious treatise on the state of the social networks today. The book claims to take you...
Every chess player knows what is meant by the ‘power of four’… a domination of the four central squares on the chess board means you’ve managed to eke out a benefit that can very well go on to become the reason for your victory. If this can happen in a mere game it can be...

I remember the first time I boarded an airplane, I was overwhelmed and I had said to myself: ‘This is incredible!’ Flying is no longer ‘incredible’… but I still find the lift-off not just incredible but a super sensual experience. However,...
We had taken a local ferry from Chatham Jetty in Port Blair and reached the huge island just across… this was Bamboo Flat. The island seemed like a sleepy village where even shop shutters were opened when the owner saw a customer walking with some resolute intent to buy. Our island visit began in a...
Incredible moments come unannounced. Always. Like they did on a fine August day last year as we were getting ready to drive back to Chandigarh. The moments were surreal, and simply out of this world. Those incredible moments came rushing in at us through a large gaping hole in the sky. But wait… we’ll get...

I stood before a shop that sold Cute bottles with some magic spell It’s good. This one. I like. Let’s buy! Was all I heard, until was told: Hold this, don’t break and spill the spell! ‘Fragrance!’ My wife had spied my ‘why’! ‘Fragrance!’ I said, and then mumbled, ‘Is there in our home...
Yes, Bold Body Limericks… and it isn’t bold bawdy limericks. Though some of them may strut around like the road-side romeos do outside any girls college! Just a few of them here in this post… enjoy. (1) I have two and you have two Both can be fictional and also true No, not silicon...
No, I’m not angry with anyone, nor reading this post is going to make you angry. Yes, you’ll certainly be left a bit smarter if you don’t smart at the idea of using those specialised grey cells in your brain that are used to solve crosswords. Yes, this is a crossword indeed and it will...
I’ve read all of the 212 pages and this includes the ‘dedication’ as well as the blank ones at the start… and I finished reading the novel (Oops! The notes) in less than half-a-day and also went about completing the normal chores for the day. What is important is that I wasn’t tired or over-stressed...
