Beginning is easy, continuing is hard!!

"Where shall I begin, please your Majesty?" he asked." Begin at the beginning, "the King said, gravely, 'and go on till you come to the end.'

The idea to begin this blog was the culmination of two exhausted & hungry minds (figuratively) as it was derived at by myself and my restless cousin Sahil after a worthless conversation throughout the night and while gobbling egg paranthas outside AIIMS hospital delhi at 5:30 am.

The idea was noble because we realized that everytime we meet, we have a lot to say & debate, agree & disagree with each other. However we always had a sneaky feeling about the question whether we are the last word on everything we discuss. We were sure of the fact that there is a huge lot within and outside our acquantainces' who will have a different and may be a correct point of view on the various subjects we discuss among ourselves.

Therefore the blog! As I had to initiate this blog, therefore I was the one who was suppose to come up with the Label or a name. Although I don't exactly fall in the category of Young but as I wanted to draw a "young & restless" crowd to this blog hence I thought of a name which represents today's generation and also represents the attitude one needs to carry while contributing to this blog i.e "No holds barred". Since I don't expect any literary scholars to be part of this blog, therefore I would urge you all to pour your hearts and minds out in this blog and try to write substantially. Brevity is certainly not bliss for this column as I think that today's generation excercises this skill amazingly well in posting their sms's.

To cut a long story short, I would definitely like to know the group I'm working with, therefore, would request you to identify and introduce yourself briefly in your first post and also come up with ground rules or suggestions to improve the penetration of this blog.

Thanks & Regards
Rohit Sharma

    I reckon, the being of the column is discernible from the tagline itself. This shall be a progressive column both in itself and for ourselves.
    Ground rules, i guess,it would be good (propitious and gainful) if we abstain from merely writing one liners and rather substantiate our opinions so that the discussions are conclusive and tangible.
