Just A Book
A sizziling plate of kababs arrived. Even Leda dove in for a bite. As I watched Devi eat, I recalled guiltily that I often used her to describe my characters when it involved nuanced habits around food, the consumption of food.
She had this way of handling finger foods, avoiding getting them under her long manicured nails. Few of us spent as must time or energy grooming our nails, and Devi rarely even visited a manicurist.
She slid a vegetable off the skewer using just her fingertips. Her nails glistened in the natural light happily dancing in the air, like defying the laws of physics, managing to avoid contact with the food while still attached to her fingers.

10 logic....al reasons ..... The next five....
6. As circular references go, the chicken or egg confusion can be eased by this logic: hunger-food-poop-hunger. Did the hunger come before the poop or after... easy isn’t it?
7. Going by the destructive nature of humans especially regarding the use of eggs for showing distaste by throwing them at the object of distaste, eggs wouldn’t have survived if they had come first.
8. The first recognized shapes in nature were not solid shapes, instead were irregular shapes of trees, water, stones etc. If the egg had arrived first, ‘oval’ would have been the first recognized shape before Square, Triangle etc. Of course the irregular shaped chicken came first.
9. If the egg came first, who hatched it? It seems you need a rooster to hatch one and a rooster comes out of the same egg as the chicken does.
FACTS10. I have 9 reasons for the argument and none against so the 10th point
Book 1
Stationery was always important for me growing up. Who doesn’t remember going gaga over novelty erasers, pencil cases of all kinds including the ones shaped like your favorite superhero, and the very essential ‘geometry box’. I was introduced to my first word processor years after I’d finished high school. It was magical. People are mostly drawn to the computer because of this one program – the word processor. Once you get started you are hooked.
Book 2
I was happy to be back at work. I had my own cubicle, and no one bothered me there, as I sat sifting through the mountains of reports and requisitions that had piled up in my absence. Every week or so a new project requirement presented itself. As the current trend was to outsource every bit of work that could be outsourced, the key was to find a balance between the resources to retain abroad and the ones to let remain offshore where the core development of the requested application would take place. Moreover, resources needed to be optimally assigned. Getting an application developed from scratch and delivering it by the deadline without a hitch wasn’t just all about programmers coming up with the best lines of code. Coming back to work as I was, after a month, I found there were a lot of pending decisions and not much that I could delegate.
