the printed word...

There is certain Joy which I missed while I was in Okinawa... that of reading an enjoyably informative Newspaper in English (perhaps with a cup of tea and cake rusks!) in the morning. Today, being a Sunday, I was greeted by the Sunday Times of India, with the same Editorial columns that haven't been replayed since I've been gone - Erratica by Bachi Karkaria, Jugular Vein by Jug Suraiya, Swaminomics by Swaminathan, Men and Ideas by Gurcharan Das, Shashi on Sunday by Shashi Tharoor, Indiaspora, etc. I usually pore on each word in the articles and their great writing and ideas enthrall me. I am such a knowledge-hog!
