Hi there. Its a good start to a humour column though I suggest you go through Rahul Phondke's columns in msn.co.in. They are stored in "Funnybone" section and are only available in archives. He is the ultimate as far as humour columns are concerned. Its a good start though. But you need to have the laughs at regular intervals and need to brush up on "stuff that makes people laugh". For example the shopping list that comes after wife whispering in her husky voice. I wanted to write, I dont mean to lecture, but sadly thats what I did.

Exactly spoke my mind... rediff has to see rahul phondke's column to know what humor columns are , else they turn out to be drab waste of cyberspace. There has to be som element of intelligent humor lurking around somewhere in the article
Who wrote an article on 'whats in a name'. The one on Arjun Singhanias and Parthasarathies. Man...that was the most amazing piece I have ever read. I still have it saved somewhere. I empathised with that article so much cos I was also a victim of a naming faux pax.
