Great List, Pallu! I am having a great time re-reading some posts 🙂
Great list… I must say! I have a few to catch up on though…
nice list Pallu! 🙂
This weekend I intend to do only this!! Remember and find the links and nominate favorite posts 🙂
I also chose one of Quirky Indian’s post – though not the same one. I chose, Bijli or Sex.
I suspect my comment went in your spam 😦
* Smith: Ditto, I’ve been re-reading some posts and having a ball!
* Roshmi: A few are indeed new, because though they are wonderful writers, they aren’t notorious bloggers 🙂
* Pixie: Thanks, but this is only first in the list. More on its way!! Have you made yours?
* IHM: Comment didn’t go into spam this time 🙂 LOL, the Bijli or Sex post was awesome too. But votes will get split, won’t they? Sigh! I do hope he/she wins, though. QI is the undoubted king of satire!

You need to take a closer look at my picture….that unshaven look kinda points towards ‘he’!
Cheers,
Quirky Indian
