We went to Hocking hills state park during the weekend, hiked a few miles, had tons of fun watching waterfalls, caves, cliffs, rare plants and infinite greenery.

A bunch of us went to Ashtabula county and Put-in-bay island over the weekend; beautiful lake Erie beach locations on the northern side of Ohio.

Missus arrived Missus on bench Missus bored at hotel Missus asked for some immediate lap love (not the baby kind 😉 ) Missus nagged Missus ORDERED! I had to obey now, the choice was between Dell XPS 1530 and one of the Macs. A quick check at the bank balances revealed that I forgot my […]

GOOD NEWS, my wife has finally come to US yesterday. I am so happy. It was sad being away from her on our first marriage anniversary. But finally she came, her journey was safe and uneventful. Buy walmart shares if you can, now that I have shifted to a hotel bang in front of the […]

“Lakdi Ki Kathi”, that is probably the first song that I have ever heard, at least its the one that I can vividly remember hearing. On one sunday (or some such holiday when I didnt have to go to school) my dad played this song on our cassette player, the kind with a speaker and […]

I have been wanting an ipod for almost two and half years now. Somehow the need vanished after I got my Walkman phone.
