The All New Look

"The food here is terrible, and the portions are too small"- Woody Allen.

This blog has reinvented it's look due to yet another mid-life crisis of it's author. Anyway, the metamorphosis has taken 4 hours, so when you recoil at the bright orange, remember the hard work that has gone into bringing you this new look. Most of the hard work was concentrated on changing the font colours from a blue or black to orange or black and I am happy to announce, this endeavour has been almost successful.

Sadly though, the quality of the writing would remain the same.

Your views on this change are solicited.

Hi R, You have an alternate career ahead of you, that of a graphic artist. BTW, you are yet to send me the java script for the blogroll. Please do so. I have a measly little "blogroll me" up on my site and then am stuck. Wonder why my pathetic java skills deserted me in toto. Off to Mumbai this week, and I sure hope I don't have to write any airport stories. Hope the book came in handy. CU in your town someday soon

Oooh la la.. it is superb! and I would say you should look at it definitely as a career. Though I can see the heavily leaning on orange must have inspired you from somewhere!! hmmmmmm where must it be eh? It was definitely worth taking a break from work just to check out ur latest. Do write more often. :)

m. said...

impressionism is when you see, (eg) a landscape and think "greenblueyellowanothersplotchofblue" and paint it like that with lovely thick gobs of paint and no thought of how much oils cost! :))

when i see a landscape...i just look for the nearest spot to have a cool drink. i swear, landscape does nothin to me...show me a crowded area...i'm more at home :)
