Romeo: Why dost thou not respond to my SMSes, my darling? Thou knowest how much I love thee especially after thou went under the plastic surgeon’s scalpel. Juliet: A Daniel, still say I, a second Daniel! Romeo: I think that’s from the...

Hey dudes and the rest of mankind....I, Vivek Pereira, will be blogging away to glory this extended weekend (including Monday which is a holiday for me).
