I was with India Today Group Online for 1 glorious year where I learnt to use this fantastic, open-ended, seamlessly infinite medium. The joint was headed by Arun Katiyar who made working there such a pleasure with inspiration galore- how else do you make everyone slog it out and still not hear them crib about being overworked and underpaid?! :)) I guess we just loved what we did. Arun, salaam!
We all met again after 4 years at Rodeo, in CP. The last time we partied publically was at San Marzano, then known as Pizza Pizza Express, where we created a ruckus which I was hoping we'd outdo at Rodeo, but I guess we've all sobered down a bit. Of course, you can never duplicate an event, nor the ambience of working with this boisterous gang! Check out the pics:

time out needed to pack a slr and a sketchbook in a rucksack, sit astride a royal enfield and ride off to anywhere

130 pushups. Nice to see those cuts again; the veins on my neck.
I'm free. I hardly miss a cigarette. It takes a will and it's possible. To be free of a chemical dependancy is to experience liberation. If I can just apply this principle to loneliness, I can overcome the need for companionship. To realize that I have only me to depend on in a crisis, and to be at peace with myself would be absolute liberation.
When I'm not working out, I indulge in self pity. Physical stress is essential for men to maintain emotional equilibrium.
Tomorrow, I want 150. C'mon ya sexy hunk, you can do it.

Getting things done...
This exercise starts from home. The basketball backboard and support in my apartments has been knocked down due to wear and tear and a new one needs to be put up. I've already attended 2 residence meetings to get this done and all that has happened is talk. I've sent emails to everyone I grew up with playing in the backyard, and have enough moral support and financial, if need be. I don't really know how much I'll be playing once this job is done, but this is for the kids. They deserve what we had.
Why is it difficult? C'mon, let's dissect this. The reason it's such a major task is, that one has to get around everyone's egos. There's this passage which has a series of doors blocking your way. Each door's keyholder stands by that door. Once his importance is acknowledged, he opens the door. He might make this easier for you by giving a nod to the next keyholder. how you interract with each will depend on how many doors you get past. When you get to the end, you are given a door and a key to manage!!
