Welcome to 'Playgrounds of the Mind"

There was once a time, back in the day before Orkut became overrun with spammers and before social networking sites like Facebook, and Twitter were used to sleep with the people they once knew at kindergarten, I kept up a small anonymous blog. And believe me, it wasn't that bad.
And, even though I blogged it up for a while, it lapsed with the passage of time. Thereafter, I became a guest columnist at The Shed Ender. Okay, well, let’s just not talk about it. Anyway, lately the blogging urge has struck again. Surely, I think to myself, the world can still benefit from my always clever, often timely, and admittedly vast pool of personal wisdom!
Of course, it fricking well can. It is, for example, full of people like you, and that does it very little credit. The world, I modestly accept, could use me.

So here I am, yet another blogger.  One who has already lost his bloggin’ magic once. But one, who believes has some more magic left in him.
Here, you’ll find social commentary, with frequent diversions into the merely curious and occasional forays into the field of law.

But before we begin, it would help to have the House Rules.

The House Rules

1) A sense of humor is required.

2) Your comments will rarely be deleted. However, I will delete any material deemed to be offensive to any gender, ethnic, religious, or other interest group, anything deemed off-subject, any material my girlfriend does not like, and, on rare occasions, any time I really, really feel like it.

3) These things do not amuse me: Manchester United, Liverpool, Barcelona, Coldplay, the Wall Street Journal Editorial Board, Robert Pattinson, and Justin Beiber.. Liking anything above doesn’t disqualify you from participating in this blog. It will, however, raise grave doubts about your level of taste.



And, finally:

4) There's only one team in London. Chelsea Football Club.


Okay, so let’s get it started:

  1. You just have to drag football in everywhere, don't you. :|
    But even then, I just added you to my favourite authors list. :)

  3. Well, don't you agree that the readers have a right to know what they are in for?

    In response to your question, however, I have been trying. Trying to build up the willpower to not drag football everywhere, though it's not going too well; evident by my post.


    Oh, thank you. Flattering.
