I like the style, it has some serious issues, and I enjoy the tongue-in-cheek remarks even there. Women rule - well, that's not really new, is it? Haven't we always bought household items, and also underwear, socks and other clothes not only for our kids, but also -a lot of women, I understand- for the hubbies? No, that's not surprising. The question is: what decides who 'rules' on the internet? Is that really the number of purchases? I would hope there's more important issues. Hi Siddarth, what an enjoyable blog!

In some occupations, mediocrity is not good enough.
