Aba ta ati bho
After what felt like umpteenth time Sushil commented about my long time silence, I am trying to restart. the trouble is I can't write on a single sitting, it takes time to write. a very long time... so long that i can't do it in office. and when i get home... well the TV is very attractive, with HBO and Cinemax back on line, its very difficult not to lie down and goggle at the wretched box!! so there goes another hour in front of the box. it is almost unbelivable that, a few years ago, i was such an emailer that subash once said his mailbox got filled up, today, my mailing frequency is once a week.. and with 600 mails to download (yup, that is 6 with two (2) zeros) on one such sitting, i rarely write a word unless it is very important... why, the last time i wrote something from home must be about a year ago... so here it is.. the new me.. the lazy me.. the non-writing me.. the tv-goggling me. now here i am trying to be the writing me.. so far all i am doing is pretending to be one.
ok lets put a blame for this lazyness. i have already blamed TV... now there is one more thing i would like to acknowledge its presnece... msn messneger. everytime i think of writing to someone, i first check if he is online. if he is, then proceed to chat rather than email... now chatting of course is interactive and no need to think but just respond to what hte other guy says.. that took a chunk out of my writing skills, and a far far bigger chunk out of my writing enthusiasm... (but of course, i stopped writing long before i started using msn messenger;) thats' another story to investigate).
tara aba chai ati bho.. aba ta lekhnu paryo.. tyesaile here i am writing one more thing -- straight from my दिमाग । न बढि न कम!!
may be tomorrow i will have some thing more.. i still have to write about RBB and NIFMIS. my aggrements and disaggrements with co-workers, my photos, my photography, mannu's new hobby, pappu and jine's new routine, my health and so on.. there are more than a billion subject i need to write about.. but do i have time? and more importantly will i overcome my laziness? i don't know... but with sushil and his kick on the line, i think i will.
So long then.. I have to go home u know....

"yes, brother, tell us the story".. I think that is what Larry Wall had to say when he was attending Eric Raymond's talk on OSS.(I think its somewhere here, but not sure) Now neither am I Larry nor you Eric, neither you or I might share the same passion they share :), but I think I am just going to say the same thing. "yes, brother , tell us"..
I wander what mannu's new hobby is ? and, of course your photography.. That I would like to look at mostly.. do you have a scanner there ? as you don't use digital cam, I think it'd be a big hassle for you to digitize them. Anyways, I would, more than anything else, like to see your archive of photographs, and, of course, annotated with your artistic recollections.. You can easily do that either using, flickr or picassa.
So, brother, tell us the rest of the story. And, welcome back to the crazy world. TV is a sucker ! and, i cannot resist myself being sucked in. You just have to resist turning it on. But if its on already heaven save you !
