(...Nope! There was a problem with the Sulekha web servers!)

Did I blow my trumpet too loud?
Sorry!

Hey, repeat that 'sorry' a million times and yet you will fall a billion short before we forgive you for blowing your trumpet.

Or is it the effect of my earlier comment listing the seven sins you must refrain from commiting, to avoid being stung by a bee?

WOW Rakesh!
I thought u were a lost entity in geekdom. Welcome to my blog!
As u can c, my pages are more interesting than bitmca02, thanks to amoebas like Sittu, Rob & Sameera.
Your joining the club (of course, in a higher avatar than an amoeba)would be a nice thing.

Sittu, I don't have a split personality. If I had, each of my posts would get a thousand comments from my alter ego!

Hey this comment is quite true...your blog is very interesting. Even my mom reads it (hi mom!). The other day she said to me, "This Deepanjan seems very intelligent."

Zoya, your comment almost made me jump over the moon! If only G (Gravitational Constant) could loosen me a bit!

Sittu, I would die a thousand deaths before I assumed Sameera's minuscule persona.
No comments about Sabu!

Hiyo, Zoya!! I had started wondering where our leading lady was while there is so much action going on over here.

D..Did you say your mom reads this blog??? I hope she is as sprightly as you are cause I am still a bit flustered about a particular comment I made a few days back.

Hey, I just visited this idiot, ignoramus little lamebrain, this….this imbecile jackass Deepanjan's site for the first time in my life today and I find that for past 1.5 years, somebody else has been posting comments in my name (Sittu).

I am sure it is Deepanjan himself who has been posting these comments to show off his fan following.

Shame on you Deep, you @#$%&!!!

Important: - Please do not believe Deep (pretending to be me) if he tries to convince you that he has not posted this comment. In the meantime, I am trying to find a knife to slit his throat.

So one of my fans has a split personality!
What a high-profile fan following!

Rakesh, its good to have you back.

And Deep what the hell do you mean when you call me an 'amoeba' of all things. Getting too big for your boots, are you? Maybe it's time for another Christ-College-style attack. What say?

It's one thing having loyal readers like me & another to treat them like dirt. I didn't particularly relish that comment of yours.

As I garner more and more support in my day to day battles with Deep and as he invariably ends up on the losing side, he seems to be on a recruitment drive to muster his forces by inducting both foreign and Indian mercenaries.

What do you say comrades? I feel this war is going to be a long and a bloody one.

Vivek, u r right. okay in case of another christ-college, i call for his nokia 6681.

You guys have any idea which burrow that filthy rat could be hiding after receiving so many life threats?

In the arms of some female whose asses he's so keen to kiss.

Hey Viv, I completely support you and understand the reason for your anger but let us not resort to sleazy words and cheap talk.

And please don't get cross at me for saying this.

Vivek said…
Chalo at least you got to fathom my anger from the comment before Deep deletes it. Yeah, I agree .... sleazy words & cheap talk aren't required where a good bashing should suffice.

Deepanjan said…
OK, I take my word back. I upgrade Rob, Sameera & Sittu to Homo Sapiens.
The afterglow of my original post has been an embarrassment to me.

Sooooooooo, now you've taken to playing God. Incorrigible, aren't you?

Playing God? Not me!
I offered the upgradation on humanitarian grounds.

This is what Bertrand Russell said about religion...

Religion is based, I think, primarily and mainly upon fear. It is partly the terror of the unknown and partly, as I have said, the wish to feel that you have a kind of elder brother who will stand by you in all your troubles and disputes. ... A good world needs knowledge, kindliness, and courage; it does not need a regretful hankering after the past or a fettering of the free intelligence by the words uttered long ago by ignorant men.

The year that was

I'm wearing a rather striking shirt, one that makes me feel like a clown fooling around in a graveyard. Roving eyes latch on to me and make me too conscious of myself. Checkered in red, grey, black and maroon, I've excused myself into donning it and looking silly for two reasons. It's Friday and…more importantly, the last working day of the year. Tailored half-a-year back, I never had the courage to wear it, not until today. It's that time of the year when it's time to reflect on the events that transpired. Last year ended on the worst possible note. Dad had expired and I was numb with shock. The repercussions rippled halfway thought this year. Things were so abysmal initially that I had lost the will to live. Acrid in everything I did, I was immensely angered by time phlegmatically flowing through its cadence. It was as if Dad meant nothing to anybody. What right did people have to live the way they always had when Dad was no more? Why was much of the world still ...
