Out of the Past
I was tagged by MiddleZoneMusings to post on a new meme called “Ten of my Favourite Posts” started by William Tully Sounds like “Oprah’s Favourite Things for Summer”! Anyway, the idea of this meme is to pick ten posts from the past, which will give an idea , to new readers , of what this site is about.
The title of my blog is “Thoughts of a Rambler”. So, you can understand the difficulty in choosing posts to give a sample to readers. I write about “anything and everything under the Mediterranean sun” and occasionally under the other celestial objects which show up over other parts of the world.
So, here are the ten posts which i think might give you an idea of what to expect at srajaram.com(oldest to the newest). Btw, most of them are from the “humor” category, as i actually don’t write about anything useful on this site!

If you are from India or from the UK or from the US and have happened to attend any Indian party, you might be able to associate with my observations about Punjabi songs titles “What is it with Punjabi Songs“.
-
If you have had a conversation with an Indian and there was no mention of cricket for more than 5 minutes, consider yourself to be very very lucky. Why are Indians so crazy about cricket. Cricket is after-all a stupid game, a waste of time!

The history of the Mallu Nairs. Don’t read this if you are not from India, you wouldn’t understand a thing!
