There is no Anu Garg. The handsome man in the two pictures is an East Indian actor (whose films have been seen mostly overseas) paid to dress up and impersonate Anu.

Father, I would think you would be the last person who would need lessons of faith. Just because the benevolent presence is unseen is no reason question your belief that he exists.

And the Vicar cites another Anglican clergyman, Francis B. Sayre, who said; "Religion isn’t yours firsthand until you doubt it right down to the ground."

Great to see a picture of Anu Garg himself! And I love that quotation -- "I have a dream where society will replace guns with dictionaries." I'm all for that. WOW -- is it MOM turned upside down??

Smarty pants! I should have known you folk would be too clever by half! HOWEVER, I like double meaning, (no, not double entendre) so wow has another meaning. Sorry, no hints. WOW

My route to AWAD? Each 4 weeks out of 8 I work in shifts as a database helpdesk member and thus I have plenty of time to explore the Web (I hope my boss will never read this post  ), esp. at nights, as our databases work rather smoothly. I've been looking for a site where I could improve my English somehow - I use it a lot at work but only to speak to other non-natives (mostly Germans). I found AWAD (googled, to be specific), subscribed, next day I discovered the board and a couple of days later posted for the first time. Unfortunately, the helpdesk period has just ended and I have much more to do now (my God, if he does I'll have to post from home and look for a new job). But I think I'll somehow manage to become a newbie this year. Be sure I'll drop you a little something at the very midnight, New Year's Eve (CET, that is) as I am the one who drew the short straw and I will be on duty then  .

My intro to AWAD came several years ago - while randomly surfing. You know, the ol' 'drunkards walk' approach to finding things. I did take quite a while before I 1) had time, and 2) the nerve to join this fine assemblage of wit and wisdom!
