Day 51


Day 51 (11th November)

Should have completed the evaluation of answer books today, but I took a break.

12 years ago, I started something. We kept it going year after year, every October. It did not happen this year. I don’t want to give up on this legacy so easily. Made a last-ditch effort by making an emotional appeal to my buddies.

Late in the evening Amma called. She told something that made me break out into cold sweat. Providence has again come to her aid.

Day 93

Day 93 (30 th September) The day was consumed in preparing for tomorrow’s class, always a learning experience. Ryder Cup action played out in the background.

Identifying and locating information is the easy part. Presenting them in a lucid way is the challenging part. Sometimes the presentation just assembles itself intuitively.

Day11

Day 11 (21st December)  Mailed the AI column. Looking for a title. Asked twitter, but got no response. I have couple of ideas in mind and will choose one.  Received a proper consulting request. Well more or less. Responded tersely because I am not desperate. Meeting with good friend at a bar that serves exotic craft beers. The place was overrun by women in early 40s celebrating silver jubilee of their class reunion. Almost all of them were surprisingly trim.
