| Life is Tough | |
| Today's papers were going gaaga about the honourary doctorates to be conferred on the Prime Minister,the Chief Minister and the President of Congress. Whether these are of any significance to the general public is anybody's guess.Prices have shot up and to add insult to injury, there are power cuts imposed as and when necessary.(I'm browsing from G...

| Teachers day | |
| Today is teachers day and I need to write about two people who made a difference to my early days at Trinity. One was Mrs.Pilimatalawe my English teacher and the other was Mr.Hastings, the senior boarding house master. When I was admitted into grade 4 in 1974 the only English proficient to me was the twenty six alphabets. Rightly so, I was put in t...

| Remembering Sarvi | |
| Sarvi,My dear friend and trusted confidante, I will miss you - as fond memories fill me that I will carry all my life…The ever smiling...., exuberant, cool dude stride with a 'carefree' attitude - I admire every little moment we have spent together. It was the other day you were in khaki attire at the mech engg workshop and your ‘koli kirking’ hand...

| My dear children | |
| I know it is too early for the two of you to read and understand what I am penning down. I just felt a sudden rush and adrenaline in my veins which makes me write something in appreciation of one thing, you being my children. And I can openly say that you are the only ones born after me who shower me with unadulterated love. This very fact makes me...

| Bamboozled | |
| Did anyone watch the test match in Colombo and feel the way I was on Sunday? My spirits were really low as I was one of the many guys who expected our team to come out trumps in the first match. We had done exceedingly well against Australia and equally well in the test we won againt the Proteas. Our batting might was world renowned and the bowling...

| My Dear Potted Plant | |
| My in-law bought a pair of bamboo plants ( the Chinese say it brings good fortune and wealth) and was good enough to give us one. It is a bunch of about 10 stems each measuring 10mm in diameter bound together by coloured celophine tape. We were asked to place it in a pot (which we religiously followed) and to allow plenty of light. Though we live o...

| Yesterday was an off day of sorts. There was the concreting of the lift machine room floor slab followed by lunch with an aquaintance. Then the workers and suppliers had to be paid off with the limited funds available.Geetha called from Bangalore and was over the moon about bagging an award at a international seminar. This seemed the only high poin...

| Middle Class Muddle | |
| My wife and I live in a two-bed roomed apartment in Chennai alongwith our two kids 9 and 3. One of the rooms is used by the kids at night which means we have the freedom to sleep together without guilt or intrusion. It is just not the case with our neighbours who must be slightly older than us but definitely not old enough not to crave for comfort ...

| Comrade Chatterjee | |
| It seems very ridiculous how the politics is mis-managed by politicians. First the Communist high command withdrew their support to the central government and threw the coalition into turmoil. Their boss Prakash Karat wanted the speaker to resign from his post. The speaker defied orders, and rightly so, said a speaker should be above petty party li...

| Its more than a week since communal violence erupted in Kandhamal district and other places of Orissa over the killing of VHP leader Swami Lakshmanananda. Contrary government’s claim, roads in Kandhamal remained blocked even on Saturday and reporters attempting to reach the riot-affected hamlets had to return half-way. Thousands of Christian men ...

Does anyone even care, unless it lands on their head. Who said babies look cute when they are born? We look like shrivelled prunes.A birth in a joint family has ...
