For those of you who hadn’t heard (or haven’t guessed from the accompanying picture); yours truly was given the honor of officiating the ceremony. How’d it go you ask?

My Favorite Time of the Year…
08-Aug-06… college football season. I know I should start blogging about my new life here in NYC… and I will at some point… but all I gotta say is… “You know it… you tell the story… you tell the whole damn world this is BEAR TERRITORY!!!” Unfortunately I won’t be there in Memorial Stadium every [...]
So long San Francisco…
07-Aug-06As most of you know I’ve moved to New York. I know that this is the right decision and I have no regrets about it… But in all my pondering over what to do with my life I’ve never thought about missing/being away from my friends. It’s not that I don’t love y’alls, but I’ve [...]
The Action of Inaction
24-May-06I’ve come to yet another fork in the proverbial road of life; and this time I’m at a dead halt. Up until now I’ve been cruising down the highway, watching the mile markers, and planning my exit. Now that I’m finally here, I’m at a full stop in the divider, watching the other cars go [...]

3 Degrees of Influence
03-Feb-06My mom called me earlier this week to deliver the strangest of news. She had recently talked to a relative of my Dad’s who had asked if I was registered with SAAVY (South Asian American Voting Youth). My mom told her that she didn’t know but it was doubtful since I’ve been voting since I [...]

A Corporate Quandary
20-Jan-06Today I got a call from a woman who worked in the HR department of some tech. company. She informed me that I was listed as a reference by a contractor who had until recently worked for us. As she uttered his name I was greeted by feelings of surprise, elation, and guilt. The contractor [...]
“Mission Accomplished”
18-Jan-06A few weeks ago I decided to rededicate myself to “Operation Car Stereo”. In preparation for my offensive I re-soldered all the connectors, remounted the harness, and strategically plotted every aspect of my plan. I decided that this time I would strike in the middle of the day when the sunlight would work to my [...]
