He was thrilled. He had managed to find a spot in a secluded corner. Amidst the crowd. Just in time... Expand

I know... I have been here since sulekha was a portal for people to come and go without any registration. Then it turned out to be a portal with registration but with multiple handles and then it became one registration one handle thingie. In all this transformation the techi gods failed to properly upgrade their database. Now i am stuck with two handles and which page uses which handle is anybodys guess.  

Nothing wrong in being an idealist and a dreamer..without you people there would be no progress..that is for sure. I am just a realist.....and live life according to the prevailing conditions.

Very well expressed.

Mr. T (Wokay ?)
I shall forthwith cease and desist from addressing you by your full name . I noticed that apart from Mr. T, you also go by Anthurium. Interesting names and monikers you have :-)

I'm an idealist and a dreamer...can't help it....it's innate.
So long...

Regards

Why do you insist on calling me by my full name ? Since then i have even tried to change my name here, of course with no avail. Bless the sulekha techi gods for that. I have put effort to built up this Mr. T persona here and you refuse to accept it ...tch....tch....I am hurt.....deeply hurt. 

no-entry for hunger and poverty...no such lofy goals for me. Yep it would be good, but it aint the truth, learning to live with it.

NB
I'm sorry to have upset your gala wedding lunch. I could write this one only this way...and this probably reflects the browns and grays of life you were talking about earlier.

The no-entry board: It would be better if it were a no-entry board for poverty and hunger, no? Sadistic indulgence? Will try to put a statutory warning next time around...

Thanks for reading and sharing your thoughts.

Okiee,

Now you keep up this torment, i would have to impose an no-entry sign to your blogs. You might not be a foodie...but spare a moment for all those who salivate at the very thought of food. For a split second you took me to a gala wedding reception lunch and before i could settle in, drove me back to reality. 

Sigh !!! now i have to settle for a indian lunch buffet...nothing else would do. 

Missy, next time you get into such sadistic indulgence, please to add atleast a satutory warning.

Nice to see you here. Thanks for reading.
U know what, I'm not that much of a foodie, I'm not picky and can be content with even curd rice and pickle :-) And I don't have exotic taste buds either LOL. But yes, the banana leaf certainly reminds one of weddings back home :-)

It's indeed sad. Poverty is such a curse! It's depressing to see how someone's leftovers become another one's feast.

Thanks for coming over.

Regards
