I am back

I am back. Back after a break of more than a year. Shame on me. Ok after that short and sweet round of self-condemnation its time to present excuses. Initially I was forced to take a break for couple of months because of the road accident I met with almost the same time last year. But later on somehow I lost the enthusiasm to blog regularly. I did keep my writing instincts alive by regularly posting articles to Kannada Section of Wikipedia (I am patting my back). I invite all the Kannadigas to contribute their time and writing skills generously to make Kannada section of Wikipedia the best Kannada encyclopedia on web. After that non-commercial endorsement let me get back to my story. I do intend to write regularly and guess what? I am now proud owner of 4 weblogs. Three of them on Blogger and one on JRoller .

Guru Brahma Guru Vishnu Guru devo Maheshwaraharaha Guru saakshath Para Brahma Tas mai sri Gurave namaha Every year we celebrate Guru Purnima as a mark of respect to our teachers. Other than this we celebrate teacher’s day on Mr. S. Radhakrishnan’s birthday. If I peek into my past, I see that I've learned under many teachers during my sixteen plus years of formal education. There have been some teachers who have made tremendous positive impact on me and are frequently remembered, there are some who have slipped down my memory lane and there are some whom I remember for not so good reasons. Out of all my teachers I remember the teacher who thought me the music the most. ...

Sweet Culture

Folks in our office are slaves to a strange culture. I prefer to call it “Sweet Culture”. We frequently get a blank email with subject “Sweets at my desk”. What the heck? I will be busy waging a loosing battle against all powerful and mighty siesta after hogging generous volume of free lunch. I will be desperately waiting for an email with some entertainment value so that I could save myself from embarrassment of being caught snoring with mouth wide open.  During such trying times I get this dead as wood blank email with a sweet subject line. Such mails bring tremendous fury and frustration in me and greatly disturb my internal peace for many reasons. Firstly, after gobbling up to dangerously high "neck level", mention of the word food can cause eruption of undigested lava from my protruding belly.  This surely degrades hygiene level in the work environment and results in loss of productivity of my colleagues. Unmindful of such a risk, some spamster crook...
