Went for a run at Fowler Park. After my second mile, ran into Dan and Greg. They slowed down enough for me so I could post my life’s best 7:24 mile and then 7:40 and 8:00 miles. Then met up with Samaresh Mukhopadhyay and Amitesh Mukherjee and their daughters Paroma and Esha for a couple of more miles. Finally we put in a 150 meter dash at 4:43 min/mile pace. Afternoon nap cannot come soon enough for me 🙂
After a mile of warm up, my personal best 5 miles at 8:05 min/mile. What a difference flat ground and cooler temperatures make!! — at Big Creek Greenway Trailhead – Fowler Park.
This is why women should not complain about men not asking for directions. As we were walking on a downtown street to visit a gallery where Sharmila’s friend’s paintings were on display, I checked my iPhone maps and told her we were headed the wrong way. She looked up and said – “No. All the Indians are coming from this street. We are headed the right way”. That’s how she judges directions!!! Garmin and Tom Tom has nothing on my wife. (and yes, she was wrong 🙂 )
10K on a gorgeous spring morning in Atlanta. Crisp air, cool temp, mild sun and “Says You” in the ears… — at Big Creek Greenway Trailhead – Fowler Park.
Skymall magazine – cover page ad proudly hawks a keyboard that is spill proof and “dishwasher safe”. No less!!! Dishwasher safe! Now, which one of us has not been annoyed by the accumulating dirt on our keyboards and in an inspired moment then flung them for a good spin with our china and silverware into the dishwasher for a grand old rinse and heat dry cycle? We can rest easy now. There is a product for us! Coming up next from the same “21st Century Ideas Retrofitted for the 19th Century Department” – a hard disk that can be cleaned with your vacuum!!! 🙂
Hilarious!! During my daily call to mom in India, she started talking about the reading habits of her grandchildren. When it came to Niki (my younger one), she was desperately trying to decribe the iPad (on which Niki was reading her books during our last trip to India) – “Sei Je, Niki erokom korey dito aar sob kichu ultey paltey jeto” (roughly translated, “Don’t you remember? she used to do like this and everything went topsy turvy”) 🙂 I had to mute myself for 10 seconds 🙂 That was the most humbling description of an iPad!! No doubt Jobs turned in his grave!!!
