| When I carefully consider the curious habits of dogsI am compelled to concludeThat man is the superior animal. When I consider the curious habits of manI confess, my friend, I am puzzled. Ezra Pound’s Meditatio got it right. Do take a look at the cute innocence of the little pup on my dream space. He is named Flame, a Golden Retriever. He barks at ...

After a few days, I strangely liked the treadmill, hated the elliptical, felt macho lifting weights and grimaced doing the abs. There were more trainers than clients at the time I visited the five...

| I mourn the passing on of the writer Sujatha (Rangarajan). He was 73 and died yesterday. In the early 80’s, in a bid to improve my Tamil, I grew up on the Ganesh and Vasanth stories he wrote then from Bangalore. Of course, later, he used to frequent the Madras Book Fair and I have seen and heard him. I have not read any of his books after the 80’s....
