Dear Sir,This is in regard to the tradition of L2 parties which has been in vogue in IIMB over the past many years. I write this letter strongly imploring you to ban this evil tradition with immediate effect as i have learnt that it has far reaching impacts on our lives.Let me use my own example to illustrate. I was very happily a teetotaler before joining IIMB. However these evil L2 parties which have alcohol very easily available and horror of horrors on some occasions even free - led me to try alcohol. This led into a pattern wherein i was used to loud deafening music and alcohol almost every week. Life then was happy still but with a new entrant into my life thanks (or so i thought) to L2

But after college, work life started and transferred me to Gujarat - a state that is dry on alcohol. Now the only way to get alcohol here is to break the law and IIMB very conveniently got me on to alcohol but did not train me to break the law. So I am now in a situation where i cant get any alcohol - the loud music can be arranged though. Now this has led to considerable amount of discomfort and has taken me to a point where my thoughts drift to those days of L2. This obviously has led to drop in productivity during my work hours and hence a lot of uncomfortable questions from my superiors. The amount of trauma is unbelievable.

I have also attached an excel sheet of people who i believe are facing the same fate as me. Notable amongst those is Mihir Saxena (aka EthanHunt) who made a 2 day visit to Ahmedabad and had to go without alcohol for that period - longest he has been without it. All this thanks to the evil L2s.As a responsible senior, i cant see my juniors and their generations undergo the same levels of trauma and in this light i implore you to take strict action against L2 - if possible launch a qualitative investigation against it and ban it for ever. We have to make the earth safer for our following generations.

Comeback

Given that i am posting after one and a half months, this would probably count as my comeback post. However given that there is a far more important comeback in the offing, i would only be deluding myself. Yes SRT is back and this probably will be his last comeback ever, any further injury will probably signal the end of a glittering career. So this makes me look forward to this one even more.

This one is in Srilanka where Sachin scored his first ODI century - i hope its more than a happy coincidence. Lets just hope that this last lap will be his most glorious one yet and boy that will take some doing.

*Quote for the day*

My favourite one ofcourse is the one by Michael Kasprovich after the 1998 season where he had gotten the beating of his life in India and Sharjah- "I am tired of that little motherf****r"
