Na, we haven't yet taken a new one. Wifey isn't here and my office timings aren't yet fixed. Till i know my schedule i cannot give a proper time to the maid.

I didn't open this thread to troll. She lied to us on multiple occasions. As i said that i was surprised that she supposedly does not know how to cook considering that she needs to cook for her family. We took her precisely because she said that she can cook and is willing to learn our food...

My wife is perplexed with her behaviour. We can eat paneer at home, but the issue is that it is fatty. Similarly dal and rice should also be taken in moderation. If she wants to learn then she will, we need to see about that. I can take non-veg (chicken, mutton & fish) but i'd like to avoid...

What i meant was that since she is not rich, she will know how to cook as she will not have people to cook for her. She lives with her husband and her 5 children. I think she cooks for her family. She said that she knows how to cook. In the beginning she said that she does not know how to keep...

Hi, I'd like to know the food habits of Kashmiri Muslims. I'm a Hindu and have a Kashmiri woman as a cook for my family. My diet at home is vegatarian and the Kashmiri cook said that she also doesn't have money to cook non-vegetarian food everyday. However, she does not know how to make rice...

So you think that there is considerable mismatch between the military strength of both sides. For how many days do you think that Pakistan can hold India back using conventional means? After 4-5 days will not outside powers intervene diplomatically? Before such a thing happens will there be...

So, in your opinion, you think that the single biggest reason for India not attacking Pakistan is the presence of adequate nuclear deterrence with Pakistan? I think that if the main focus of Pakistan's army is diverted away from defending Pakistan from an Indian invasion then India will get...

Thanks for the reply. I suppose that left/right/neutral leanings that one has, even assuming that we are reasonably objective in our analysis, will decide which party we vote for -- irrespective of the follies they commit. Anyway, I am deviating from the topic. So I'll stop here.

Would you be lenient and accept the belligerent stand of the present government if you thought that they are, by and large, doing good for the country? I am not in a position to judge if their economic policies are good. But I do think that some of the rightist views and actions they are taking...

Can it be concluded that Indian politicians' sanity index has slipped several notches? We are becoming more belligerent only towards Pakistan. We, at least via the media/official government statements, played it safely against China in the recent Doklam standoff. On the other hand 'official'...

As far as i can recollect, this article was posted here a few months back.

@hellfire I read posts of both you members, but i do admit that not everything sticks, partly because of lack of understanding, knowledge and the amount of concentration to read some of the posts of you two. I did get a little uncomfortable with @Joe Shearer's attitude a week or so back. He got...

@hellfire Why don't you get the 'PROFESSIONAL' tag? something to do with Indian Army policy? Its so informative to read yours and @Joe Shearer's posts, plus both of you are witty. Sorry for being off-topic.

@Joe Shearer I apologize for offending you. My intention was to stop any animosity between you two respected members. I stand by what i said about the JNU issue with regard to @MilSpec. Have i endorsed his opinion? You may not have liked his bringing up of the topic, but is it his fault? He had...

@Joe Shearer I think it wasn't right of you to attribute ulterior motives towards @MilSpec. He was genuinely talking about JNU right from the beginning. He was rightfully respectful of you while politely disagreeing with you, something which, in my opinion, you did not do in the same manner...

It is good that ISRO is at last making efforts to privatise PSLV operations. One reason why this plan was facing resistance was, funnily, the tremendous success of PSLV. Some senior ISRO people had apprehensions that if this successful venture went into private hands then people would eventually...

Self proclamation of superiority will not get anyone anywhere. When you keep self aggrandizing too often you will eventually believe that and will become blind to the significant flaws you have. It matters what the others think of you, and the rest of the world is not foolish. Same applies to...

India will oppose the sales regardless of the value of F16s. I think that F16s are a problem or at least an irritant in any Indo-Pak war. I do think that our method of opposition was not well thought out and also reflected our lack of influence. But over time we'll get better, you shouldn't...

Good post @rubyjackass. I'll only add that many on the left and right say unnecessary things when they find that they are being correctly rebutted --- its just a defense mechanism. Way too many 'thinking' people use all their knowledge to only justify their stand. The way BJP and the larger...
