jshekhar Its true that he cheated and there should not be any place for a cheater in any sport, anywhere. However, the time during which he cheated was the time when everyone in cycling was cheating. So in a way, everyone was on a level playing field, isn't it?

jshekhar Most of us have this conscience inside us, which we want to keep really clean. We just can't live with the kind of guilt that comes with false fame. It is like a burden on our soul, which can be released only by confessing. It's good that he admitted...

jshekhar That's a really thought provoking response. Most of the people changed their opinion about him after that confession.

I'm working and like a lot of people, do look forward to weekends, so that I can relax and have some time for myself. One such weekend has just gone by and I didn't venture out of my flat even once! It has got a lot to do with the...

jshekhar hahaha... every place has positive and negative things about it and Texas seems to be no exception. You have developed a nice, positive way of beating the heat as well as earning at the same time. All the best with that and keep going.

jshekhar Hello friend, Thanks a lot for the suggestion. You are really skillful enough with cooking, it seems so you can try out new salads/cold drinks on such days. Yes, we do postpone a few chores for the weekend and it is the perfect time to do them. But again,...

jshekhar Thanks for the suggestion, Nabilaagina. It again boils down to books, doesn't it? I do like reading but can't spent more than a couple of hours a day with books. Hence, once that happens, I feel bored.

jshekhar Thanks for the suggestion, Celticeagle. However, I am not the sort of person who likes bowling too much. May be its time to learn. Movies, yes but then you don't get watchable movies on every weekend, do you? And even if there are, we prefer going in the...

jshekhar Thanks for the suggestion, friend. However, I am not that kind of a person who can spend more than 2 hours of a day reading something, no matter how interesting it is. Hence the dilemma :)

jshekhar Hi Edison, Your interests are weather independent, I must say. Personally, I do like books but not a lot of them and somehow I have never been able to read them in pdf format.

jshekhar These are really nice, inexpensive ways to spend your time. And at the end of it, you would end up a more knowledgeable person as well. I am more into outdoor sports and travelling so I find it tough to do these things on hot days.

jshekhar Hello Tops, That is a really nice way of responding, and thanks for throwing back the same question at me! Honestly speaking, yes, in my initial days here in MyLot, I was too much into improving my ratings and all and I occasionally used to do that. But over...

jshekhar Hello Kiran, Thanks for the honest response. That is the way things should be here. Participants should not go after the ratings,etc. Rather, we should concentrate on the content.

jshekhar Hello patzel, This is a great way of participating here. Feels good to know that there are people who are not greedy and selfish and would respond to discussions even if the B.R. has already been marked. Have a good day.

jshekhar Completely agree with you, icecubic. At some point of time all of us take break, be it intentional or unintended. However, the best part is that most of us come back and carry on from where we left, with increased zeal.
