The executive daddy has returned with a bang. The first bang came when he was asking the news editor to liven up the pages. Incidentally, the joint news ed was at the time shaking hands with a sub and needless to say, froze. The conversation went something like this: "Tsk, you must do something about the p.... why is she holding your hand?" Was the news ed embarrassed? We think it takes more than that.
Meanwhile, I need Rs 13 lakh. When I asked my esteemed colleagues how much they would be able to lend me I came up with Rs 13. Six from the news ed (at 36% interest, the #$%%%), five from nat and a couple more from here and there. Tenor offered to lend an ear while the sports desk laughed hard. Sigh.
