The Drenched Dudeni? ROFL. Yeah, as if my real name isn't bad enough, people in Blogistan are out to shower funny names on me!
missus calling out "Naren" angrily
Is that why you're reading a book which has the word 'bachelor' in its title? To reminisce about the good ol' days? Sometime back in the 19th century? :D
#19: Are you finally accepting that you fall in the senior citizens' category?
And dude! (Sorry for the age-inappropriate title beswtoed here.) Rollercoasters are NEVER bad! You're too old to enjoy them. That's what it is.
Race so sucks. I watched it somedays back. My poor brains were jammed for a while...even topless Saifuuu was no good. :'(
The Dudeni has done this cool tag already. Does she rule or what? :D
"11. Finish this statement. “If I had lot of money I’d….?”

Haha :D
I'm gonna agree with u on the roller coaster bit...actually for me its any ride...my stomach churns like crazy...like it would when exam results r to be out...ho hum!
Another tag well done :) Not like my verdict matters, but still ;)
okay..im braindead and whatnot so i will do this tag RIGHT NOW
Hahahaha @
->Scalar once you press the brakes - magnitude, no direction

-Do you drive fast?
-Not unless I have to go to the bathroom.
LOL! Hilarious !!
I've read this tag on a few other blogs..must stay, you did it the BEST so far. :D
Clap Clap Clap
What does "insurance millionaire" mean?
Will get to tag soon. :-)
:). Hmmm.. your missus does run a tight ship:).
Actually, you are such a cool dad:).
Have you read the PGW where a small boy and a writer swap spirits in the astral plane? Its the best PGW I have read.
-Ok
@drenched - "Dudeni" is BPSK's work, which I thought was super cool. Read your response to that tag. Beautiful. Dudeni rules. Need to comment at leisure.
swetha - Thanks. Need to comment at leisure on your blog too.
preeti - Thanks, babe.
cynic - Waiting...
gradwolf - Thanks, dude.
alwayshappy - Thanks. I think I'll have a beer
bpsk - Insurance millionaire - a word of explanation is in order. My wife, when asked if we could have another child, girl this time, categorically threatened to decapitate me in a certain way which, though not necessarily leading to death, might make one wish one was. I covered myself with insurance and the idea is that if she does bear child and decides to say "off with it" and in the process if I pop it, the family will be well endowed with doubloons.
I know I am too brief and circumspect when I have to say something, but it is an old failing. Naren the Taciturn, they used to call me back in college.
OK - The missus is actually a bag of laughs. I revel in painting her as an ogre. She is anything but. However, she does espouse non-Gandhian tactics when presented with disorder at home, on which occassions one wears one's helmet and treads around the house softly.
"What was your first car?
Maruti Omni Van (Scalar once you press the brakes - magnitude, no direction)"
hahahaha, brought back some memories of close calls on the roads of b'lore
naren: Rule #1 of tagging: INFORM the tagged! To make sure you get the bakra, go to the tagged's blog and let them know. Hound them till they do the tag :D
If not for the fact that am a good blogger who actually don't mind doing tags and admitting to reading every last line of your post, I'd have happily squirmed and ignored this away. ;--p
@BPSK: ..and here I thought some nicks were exclusive. Bah*
OMG. You passed a tag to me. Sniff. No one's ever done this before. Sniff. Thanks. I shall. sniff.
The black dye part cracked me up. Come now, there are advantages to not being too young. You don't have to pass insipid exams, for instance.
Ah, I see Manipal :)
