What Petrol Crisis?
Its all over the news today, although it might've been overshadowed by the Satyam fiasco, which has almost managed to dislodge all relevant 26/11 coverage from major news channels. In case you weren't aware, there's a major petrol product supplies crisis due to the combined effects of strikes by the truckers (which has entered its fourth day) [...]
Wanted : Psychedelic-Coloured Pyjamas
So we're already into January 4th 2009. The first four days of this year have turned out to be so full of office work that I've left the motorbike in the parking lot and taken a cab to head back home instead, for it is too dark, too late and too dangerous to head out on a motorbike at the unGodly times that I exit from the office.

It had been almost two years since I had visited Mangalore, and that was in January 2007 for the wedding of a [...]
Tour of Nilgiris
The primary objective behind my picking up my cycle, aside from being über-cool and awesomer, was to use it as a means of commuting, because I want to exercise but I have no enthusiasm (a.k.a NED) to go to the gym, and cycling seems like the best option to save up on gymming as well as transport costs. My excuse for cycling is because I am [...]
