Stay off the roads

… cause I’m finally driving by myself at the ripe age of 29. So what if takes me 45 minutes to cover 3 kms. Today I even managed to put the AC and the radio on without knocking anyone down and it was fabulous. THIS is women’s liberation my friend.
Also I figure it is more [...]

30/10

Just finished reading Richard Branson’s autobiography. No sleep in sight yet. Can’t believe I didn’t read this book before considering it’s been in the library for years now. It must’ve been all the comparisons between him and the local liquor baron that put me off.  Totally fascinated with this guy and would love to know [...]

Happy Diwali

Wishing you a very happy diwali and a prosperous and fun-filled new year ahead!
PS. In case you were wondering, I went and had a wonderful time while I was away from this blog. Life has been AMAZING and the proof is that I didn’t feel the need to blog/vent!!

Google Lok Sabha Elections site

Google baba has come to our rescue once again and come up with a website about Lok Sabha Elections that kicks some serious ass.
You can enter your locality and it will choose the constituency automatically. There are simple comparisons of developmental facts (as factual as facts can be) such as infant mortality rates, crime rates, [...]

Dear stainless steel dubba makers


that little sticker you stick with gorilla glue, is supposed to be peeled out by us humans, not get permanently bound to the said dubba. So please to be taking mercy on us steel storage dubba consumers.
Edited to add: A cousing had given me an expert tip to handle those buggers and it has worked! [...]

If ignorance is bliss why do we seek knowledge

I remember this question from the days when I  still bothered to watch Miss India. The question was posed to one of the contestants and the answer was random and unrelated as usual, but the question has stuck on, because I love that question.
Meanwhile this weekend, two of my fingers got wounded badly while grating [...]

So much to catch up with. So little time. I am drowning.
