About Me

My photo
Mukesh
Voracious reader. Dreamy eyed with love of all things vintage and science and hate for bigotry. I also like to engage in regular cynical musings ( you know, the 'Oh! Whither are we going ?!' sort of stuff ) and derive a lot of pleasure from mocking any and everything under the sun. मिज़ाज थोड़ा शायराना, ज़्यादा सिनिकल है ।
