A Winter Soliloquy

Rays of the sun caress the cheeks, 
A cool breeze tickles and goes
Eyes closed, she envelops me in a tight hug.
Her warmth, her fragrance, the freshness and a nip in the air
She is here again to make me alive again.
I am alive once more! 

The traffic, the sounds of birds, steaming hot tea gushing into cups, 

Heady cigarette smoke at chai tapris,
Makes me forget the chaos on the streets!
She is here, winter is here!

After he entered the infamous toddler phase, I became the quintessential “villain” for my son – the usual don’t do this and that. Yet again, my dreams of becoming...

Barnes & Noble expands Nook Free Fridays with apps, free games

The book retailer is hoping to cash in on the application fad so that keep customers will keep re-visiting the Nook application store and download books and other applications.
