I remember this from a few years back. June 2007 to be precise. I had flown to Cairo to join the ship which was supposed to cross Suez Canal in a couple of days. Since the ship was to arrive at the canal in a few days I was put up at the Grand Albatros […]

Whats the price at which city dwellers are eating mangoes? 500 rs a dozen? May be more. We have them for free. Just look at the quantities that were produced by just one tree this season at my home.

Dig and Fill….??

Few of us might have knowledge of the keynesian economics. What I understand of it in layman terms, is that it a dig and fill policy, where in the government pays someone to dig a hole and pays someone else to fill the hole.

Lost…The Countdown!!
By I Said It on April 8, 2010
Just saw the 11th episode of Lost season 6. And am euphoric. The very defining moment was when Desmond shakes hand with Penny, and the next moment he is back at the Hydra island.
