Jagadish has long insisted I read ‘Gone with the Wind’. It was also made into an Academy-Award winning movie whose re release poster you see above. It’s a book he absolutely adores, and I never had any real interest in the so-called classics. I love mystery, thrillers, and some comic relief. Yet, he persuaded me [...]
Who was it that once said, “All the world loves a lover”? Well, whoever it was, he/she must certainly not have come from where I do. The part of the world where I come from hardly loves a lover. It is, I think, a little strange that falling in love and wanting to marry someone [...]

As Jagadish mentioned, this is the fourth time we are celebrating this wonderful day together. I can scarcely believe that we have been together that long. Four years is indeed a long time, and even longer considering all the distance we have to transcend. I don’t honestly know though if Valentine’s is as special as [...]
Valentine’s Day is a day invented by greeting card companies to make people feel like crap. –Eternal Sunshine of Spotless Mind Eternal Sunshine is one of my favorite movies of all time. It’s an amazing movie with some brilliant lines that resonate through some good acting by Jim Carrey and Kate Winslet. It is one [...]
A very happy new year to all of you. So this new year, me and archana have decided to start up something new in addition to the blog we have here. I am a huge fan of web comics. I am not talking of the regular Sunday newspaper comic strips like Dilbert or Calvin and [...]
