sorry for posting it here again- had some edits. i guess we can lock after this😊 thx again!

hey Adi, i was wanting to take up your question before wrapping up. but since i didnt know what the skies or the ocean would be like tomorrow, i'd like to answer now.😆 doing it a bit differently than u'd asked, hope that's ok. some of the questions highlighted:

the various questions that you had, including the warm-ups on pg 19: things about myself, love, romantic dates, all of which gave me an opportunity to express myself on my own terms. you also had the toughest one 😡😆, the situational one about the orphan girl who later becomes a wife. the wife/ mom choice has always been a hard one i suppose, and it took some doing.

amit's qn on pg 10 and manjujain's follow-up on pg 14 on debate, and how i came at it. i forgot to point out i think that for me there's also the entertainment value and why i shld therefore try to not get too het up; qt's on pg 12 - sparringly fun to do, as were simi's on pgs 97 and 98;😆 moe's funnies on pg 12; all the hilarious, crazy, smart ones interspersed throughout from suny, snowy, sania, ritzy, dia, minali. they're a wild gang. suny for one has a nutty einsteinian future, dia and minali one where they'll drive most guys up a wall.😆

sahana's insightful qns on pg 11 - about virtual relationships, IQ, random ones; her qns on pgs 8 and 11 were especially instrumental in drawing me out; i can see why she is IF's award-winning mentor. the answers to her thoughtful questions won me some early accolodes and told me i could do this;

priya's brilliant qns on pg 96 - on MP, culture purists, issues with deep relevance IMO for forum life and in society;

tania's qns on pg 45 - on various choices, and earlier on pg 37 which led to jadoo's request on pg 38 to go the bedhang behuda way.😆 it was interesting trying another style on fairly similar content and seeing how that could play on perceptions;

surpremi's qns on pg 45 - to be or not to be, and the subsequent existentialism exchanges with noopur starting pg 58;😆

jaya's qns on pg 25 - some personality types, some more on pg 28 - family relationhips, and on pg 46 - about cyber relationships, flirting; and then on pg 91 - regarding IIT days, my favorite one of all 👏👏👏, giving me the chance to link a name at least in a nostalgic virtual sense with mine;

ethnos qns on pg 80 and subsequent exchange with minali - on movies, lead me to Farewell My Love, and to others i re-discovered later at night;

lots of interesting questions, and if i could turn noopur's observation on pg 36 around, questions that "ranged from thoughtful to witty to downright crazy".👏

as for being MOW, well, all the smart, warm and fuzzy lines i could think of have already been said by others before. 😆so if i could, i'd simply like to point out a few of the downsides here. ok, dont know why they congratulate the new MOW. so embarrassing. feels like a chicken with it's head about to get chopped that's being serenaded. then, there's the need to refine at least the siggy for a few days.😉 and killing and getting killed by all the sweetness. 😛finally, the need to hone in on those nintendo and speed chess playing skills where the villains come at you from all sides, while finding novel ways to duck work.😆

anyway, with any luck, the weather will hold up tomorrow. if u see me around tomorrow, blame it on those romantic stormy seas and ethereal mists 😛, which keeps one bed-ridden, homeward-bound when one's not walking barefeet on those beaches. 😉

meanwhile thanks. most of all to you, Adi, and Jaya for making this better than i could have.👏

Hi Rahul:

Its the winding up of yet another Great MOTW. Rahul, I have enjoyed reading each and every answer of yours. Whether it was a fun question or a brain teaser you did justice to it all.👏 Your answers struck a cord with the versatile crowd that had a chance to drop in to your thread. For my part I was absolutely amazed at you pairing songs to me....... you must be psychic!😆 I will definitely try to get Forever My Love which is a sequel to the Dr. Zhivago theme. I was so excited when I read your list of movies, stars and songs!!

Its been a pleasure getting to know you better through your MOTW Rahul. All the best in the future. You Rocked without a doubt!!👏

Minali😳

noopur- the clothes? haha. i was just the gift-wrap boy. 😛 i'd deputed a good buddy, but looks like he mucked up. which is what happens when u get your best and smartest buddy to impress folks on your behalf. 😉 but then again, why is it i think most women expect guys to do the shopping for them when they know they're going to be miserable anyway. qn for the next mow? 😉 😆

Arre baba, I wasn't criticising your answer, hell, I thought it was kinda flattering that 'you' (who isn't really you) thought that I could pull off anything.😉 Wahi pe chodena tha, na?😆😆

Ah, you will never win Rahul.😆

Hi Rahul

Thanks for this wonderful week 👏 All I want to say is:

Zindagi mein hum akele aate hain, akele jaate hain
lekin is janam aur mruthyu ke is chote samay mein
kuch dost bante hain, kuch rishte bante hain
You will be one to be always on my good friends list..

I consider it lucky to having got you as a friend.. 😊 I came to know you through these wonderful pages of your motw.. Thanks for all nice words that you had written for me..

All The Best and God Bless 😊

Well... Rahul, most of them have already said most of it..so let me just add my bit...

Indeed it was a very fine innings played by you!👏

Was worth a read!!👍🏼

May Life's Best Be Yours!!!😛

sahana- the faint words of praise mean a lot more to me than all the smothering sweetness, coming as they do from someone i respect. they dont come with strings attached for one thing.

😆😆You call it faint praise.😆😆 Well, glad I didn't smother you.
And now methinks, this is a quote I could use in my writing - "Faint praise is better than smothering words of sweetness". I need a lot of quotes in my profession, you know. So thank you.

Thanks rahul for the wonderful week and thanks for all the things u said for me.....

It was nice to know another person working in finance and the very challenging job as i like 😊

Best of luck for ur future dreams 👍🏼
