Book's a long while from now, and mostly in the air, but someday..<br /><br />Thank you for the faith.<br /><br /><b>Janaki</b>: Oh come on! You, I must've told this story to! Please don't get all mushy in your old age:D. Come to Delhi. I miss you too. Good conversations are so sparse!<br /><br /><b>Un B </b>: You're smarter than the average reader to have figured my history in a finger snap. :)<br /><br />Apple doesn't fall far from the tree. Yup. Always liked that one. I am Apple. No relation to Gwyneth and Chris Martin :P<br /><br />Your six years in the U.S coast guard is a book I'd want to read. I know what you mean by it saved your life. Although the feeling will probably resonate better with my brother.<br /><br />Ask and you shall receive, yes! Not sad at all. I was ecstatic with my notch-higher-than-mediocre rating! And anyway, that's how I stumbled on your blog. Bless them for that. You really raise the bar, Un B.<br /><br />Your wife's a wise woman. I have a baby on my hands! We're not married and he already thinks I excel at making him sound like an ass. <br /><br />Fair to say he's influenced by American music? Yes, I'd say so. Most of us are. When it comes to playing music though, he likes the old stuff, the popular jazz standards. Fats Waller, Oscar Peterson. Art Tatum, Louis Armstrong, Chet Baker -- he knows this stuff in his sleep.<br /><br />I'm being a brave heart in linking him here but <a href="http://piazzollavideo.blogspot.com/2009/10/piazzolla-in-india.html" rel="nofollow">this is his band playing Libertango</a>, if you care for that stuff<br /><br /><b>Dark C</b>: I never wore pigtails, never made a plait, and now I'm back to a short crop:) Nunu was the nickname from childhood.

Or this cleverly written. But then, not many lives are interestingly lived either.<br /><br />The part about Nimpipi being the name of a little girl with pigtails is surprisingly exactly what I thought of the name. I always thought it has to be a nickname from childhood :)<br /><br />Loved this post!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26829926.post-60890094150531614592010-06-22T17:22:13.094+05:302010-06-22T17:22:13.094+05:30Humm.

Have you heard that expression?<br /><br />I had horrible grades and gravitated to the U.S. Coast Guard for six years. It saved my life. If not for Mother Coast Guard, I’d have wound up toiling in a factory in Cleveland, vs. spending a few decades in New York City.<br /><br />I was given a very favorable write-up on Ask and You Shall Receive last summer. It was one of the happiest days of my life. Sad as that sounds.<br /><br />My wife has requested that I leave her out of my blog and I have complied.<br /><br />Is it fair to say that your boyfriend is influenced by American music, then? Does he prefer Popular Standards or does he gravitate to more avant garde jazz?The Unbearable Banishmenthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05704208968630911021noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26829926.post-37966016405865048942010-06-22T17:21:12.533+05:302010-06-22T17:21:12.533+05:30Superb!
