Hello there!
So finally after 3 years of pondering and procrastinating I have been able to start blogging. Maybe its sheer boredom that made me take this step or that I really want people to enjoy my writing. Just like the title of this particular blogpost, my blog is going to be about nothing..like Seinfeld was - a show about nothing! Yet very witty and entertaining!
If any of you are wondering about the title of the blog "Life's a rummy affair", the word "rummy" in P.G. Wodehouse's dictionary means something odd or peculiar. Well LIFE is odd, isn't it! I couldn't think of any one better than the beloved P.G. Wodehouse as an inspiration for my blog. His characters like Jeeves, Bertie Wooster & Aunt Agatha are as firmly implanted in my mind as "Mogambo" or "Gabbar" or "Shaktimaan" for that matter. Btw, when I was a kid I used to think Shaktimaan was a big show off! (No offence to anybody)
Right now I have so much to say, but my commitments to the real world beckon me. Adios and see you soon!

PGW as an inspiration for this blog will keep me interested in itself. Welcome to the blogging world! Perhaps, a good chance to know you better through your blogs. Good luck!
ReplyDeleteYou may want to read my blog as well - http://der-kunstler.blogspot.com
any ways as i too was busy in doing nothing i thought y not be the first guy to follow some one who is busy in writing about doing nothing that would be a great compliment, wouldnt it?
ReplyDeleteAs for shaktimaan he was always a big show off!!!!
I can understand superman drilling a hole in ground by spinning about himself but shaktimaan doing it is a bit to much!!!!
Have never read P.G. Woodhouse so cant comment on that but would like to add that its not only seinfeld but many serials (like how i met your mother ( season 4 and he still hasnt met his kid's mother!!!!), friends, etc.) are based on doing nothing!!!!
So after typing all that , I would like to say happy blogging!!!!!
You obliged to my pestering about writing a blog! I am heartened. :-) Liked the Seinfeld reference.
ReplyDeleteKeep writing frequently.
thank u all for the encouragement!
ReplyDeletethe first thing that came to my mind with "rummy" was a game of cards... and yea i guess life is also like a game of cards ;) Very relevant to the present scenario and a gud way to strt a blogpost.. all the best for the long way to go !!!
