Welcome to my corner in the websphere.

I have been managing this site since March 1996, when I first got introduced to the web. The site has gone through many iterations and has grown as my life and family grew. But the gist of my site has stayed the same and I still edit it using a basic vi editor.

March 1996 was also the year I got married and have had two lovely kids since then. Both of them keep us on our toes. Click on the Family button on the top of the screen to see the other members of my family.
