Hello from Rich









Guys,
It was great seeing you over last few days. I have gone High-tech over the Christmas Holidays.
I want to introduce my new friend Nanda. Without her I'll still be lurking in the background, making snide, cryptic comments anonymously.
From here on I'll be playing straight up on the blog. No Shenanigans. Let's improve the quality by limiting the quantity. (That's from Rich. I am just the messenger...)

I'll soon be posting the lyrics of the song I wrote specially for Nanda, for inviting me over for Thanksgiving, for which she cooked curried chicken.

Here are some of the photos of me, the boys and Nanda.

Welcome, Rickie.
Of course this makes you the only blog member with an amanuensis. Hopefully you're providing her with adequate remuneration.

quality over quantity? yes, an interesting concept. but, alas, who will decide? perhaps all entries should first go the blogmeister for review. or, we could continue to post our blather and those who find the quality lacking can simply use their mouse to scroll to more favorable internet zones. it's all rather subjective anyway, isn't it? one man's humor is another man's snide comment. one woman's introspective remark is another woman's self-indulgent prattle. the only really interesting thing is whether or not one can refrain from copping a tude.

Simmy,

Please don’t take the comments about quality/quantity the wrong way. Rich was just overjoyed that he was finally able to post something on the blog. Since he lacked on the quantity, he was just boasting about quality. You know how he has been struggling to become Computer-literate. And he was probably referring to the discussion he had on Christmas day about what goes on, on the blog.

I tried telling him that his message sounded harsh. He said that his family knows him and that they would expect nothing less from him. Again… he was just trying to be funny.

I spoke to him this morning and he has agreed that he needs to apologize and he has promised to treat the blog and his family members with utmost respect that they deserve.

i've taken dick's comments personally and, well, i just want to weep. i'm stung to the core. i can barely breathe.

now seriously, when you grow up under the roof of dub with six males who mostly have their hands on their precious jewels and their mouths moving way faster than their brains, well, you're gonna get some sarcasm.

it is my humble opinion that sarcasm is its own special form of communication and, in fact, actually expresses a kind of personal love. it's presently precious and oh so PC to be more touchy feely with the familial love but i don't think we can expect a bunch of homophobic bros to be apologizing for a little razzing about Q over Q.

so, dick, i love you, dude, but come on, let's get cynical.

and i'll just add this; i've been asking around for a couple months now, and so far as i've been able to ascertain: the SIMPSONS are the only clan with a family blog. so blog on

Oh Dear...I am glad it is all clarified. It sure is different in a family of 6 brothers. I have been the older sister of my only one baby brother.

I’ll upload 2 photos I have from the party. May be you can combine other photos and post them prominently for everyone to see.
I know that you have an efficient photo editing tool. So, may be with some special effects? Just kidding...
