Hi Friends,

Have been out of action lately. Actually what transpired was first my laptop crashed. Then when it was repaired, the internet connection malfunctioned. The broadband provider said it was my lan card problem. I had it checked, the person said the lan card worked fine. I scratched my head and got the laptop home. Had almost decided to buy a new laptop, when hola, miraculously the laptop AND the broadband worked fine. SO here I am and hopefully should be here more regularly, the Gods (I mean the mean machines and service providers ) willing.

Last week, I had almost convinced myself facts cannot be stranger than fiction. I mean, what can beat this: I visit Krampochilikeshanbfjousn, a planet in galaxy named Hkujsouoslhupjsapu Qhyphb at the other side of the universe for a holiday, have fun, get laid by the beauties there and head back home to avoid boredom. Then, I glance at the newspapers (I avoid watching TV news channels now, except for NDTV 24X7) and I am convinced otherwise. Last week seems to have been a week of momentous speculations for me. I even suspected that my long standing notion of God being a figment of Human’s imagination could be false. The capital H is only to rival the capitals G. Don’t ask me the significance of this para in the blog. I had almost deleted it, then told myself, what the heck, let it remain.

Today, I had been out hunting for a flat for my friend. Visited a few builders. This chap is not easily satisfied, demands the best – could be a right approach too, only it gets a bit boring after some time. Anyway, the properties around this place have gone out of reach of many people. Couple this with the fact that home loan rates have gone up. It is quite obvious that sales have slowed down. But the fuckers refuse to negotiate on the price. So, we retreated – whats the cliché – yeah : to lick our wounds.

Adios!
