The May-December Couple
If you think younger men are a cinch, think again!!! Here’s what Mr.Everyday has to say about our couple state.
Ideart: The Making Of A Superhero-Nagraj
Actually, this should have been my first superhero-on-tee project for the boy. I had after all, heard of Nagraj, the popular snakeman character of Raj Comics. But the boy’s first choice was the dog-parented desi Batman and so Doga it was. Still, when I spotted this olive green tee-shirt, I…
Ain’t Nobody Like A Desi Boy

Barbie With A Brain
When I first chanced upon the Agony Aunt section in HT Cafe, I had to smile when I saw who was solving problems for the lovelorn. Kim Sharma!! Kim Sharma?? What sort of advice could she possibly give anyone? Then today I read an interview with her. You seem to…
Bull Run On The Men Market
While my pessimism as regards men, may know no bounds, she reminds me that some markets are always booming! Viva manhood and the spirit of madness, then! (Click on pic to see full comic on a new page)
