I do not think I have ever seen him without that smile. That is Ted Dimbero back in 2002!

Confabulating over something with great intent. This one of Subhasis and Tathagata is from nearly 21 years back. I believe we were celebrating Natasha’s fourth birthday by the pool.

Nathan and I first worked together in Dallas. Then he moved to India. Subsequently, he came back to the USA – in Atlanta. We started working together again – but in a different company. And then finally, I moved to Atlanta.

This was right after I moved to Atlanta when his daughter (Arunima) and mine two had a great day in the pool!

P.S. Eventually, Nathan moved back to India again

For the life of me, I still cannot remember what this party was all about. This was on Nov 2 and their birthdays are in Jan, Dec and Sep… But good times were had – as with every other i2 get togethers…

But it was a party at our house with i2 friends and there was a cake involved!

… but, Sharmila, Raji and Karthik seemed to be all attention for that. This was over 22 years back. I think San Diego beach.

A few days back, I was talking to Lanell to wish her a happy birthday! Lanell was our front desk person at i2 and a class unto herself. A visiting customer had once aptly described her as “i2’s best ambassador”.

In any case, we were talking about the good old days when she suddenly asked me – “Where is Spider-man?” I had to ponder for a few seconds and then instantly remembered that Halloween evening when I had taken Natasha and Sunil/Anannya’s son Adreesh to i2 offices for candy collection.

Had to dig back to that day – Nov 2, 2002 (both were 4 years old) in my photo archives to relive that day. That picture of Adreesh slouching in the chair is priceless. It is like Spider-man was really tired after putting in a full day’s worth of work (mostly collecting candies, though).

1995, I am guessing?

This goes back nearly 30 years. An apology to cricket was being played – replete with tennis racquet (for bat), tennis ball, trash can (for stumps) and basketball (the non-striker’s side stumps).
