In this third chapter of B2B, we plan to wrestle with just one aspect of the epic, namely the "magical" flying vimana. For the purpose of this post, we would like to explore a mundane explanation.

B2B 02 – The Third Woman
In this second Chapter of B2B, we explore the roles of two individuals who, though members of the most-important family, have been more of footnotes in the epic, a Woman, and Her Son, atleast one of them. This time around not much of social commentary, other than what escapes without my knowledge. | Do read, comment and discuss. Share but beware! | Word Count: 1854 | Flesch Kincaid Grade Level: 4.5 |
B2B 01 – Warriors of the Ape Kind
In the first Chapter of B2B we attempt to fit a some-what logical explanation to the reported fact that the Hero of the epic fought and won against the Main Adversary, at the head of an army of ape-men. The explanation is gradually unveiled in a conversation between two characters who though important individuals, sons of kings, but reduced to background characters in the epic. | Do read, comment and discuss.

UGLIE 04 – The One Where Eddie Got Sick and/or Confused
In the fourth of the UGLIE series, we bring forth a favorite theory of the author. Let's call it cryptically the Three Men in a Thought. Link to earlier post before the actual story starts. We use the excuse of our now old friend Edward to travel far and wide. A few explanatory off-server external links.

B2B 00 – Yet Another Prologue
Just another prologue to another proposed series. Based extremely loosely on another epic I love. To bits. This was not promised to anybody. May be it was, but I won't incriminate my friends this time! A few external links at the time of writing. Cross-references and collaborative information, mostly. | Do read, comment and discuss.

UGLIE 03: The One With Eddie And Deaths
In the third of the UGLIE series, we skip to the Regency of Terribelus. We examine possible source of few slightly suspect "facts" of the tale, neither confirming nor denying... just stating options. May be that should be left to each listener not the teller of these tales. Link to earlier post before the actual story starts. We introduce an as-of-now silent narrator, Mr. Edward.

UGLIE 02: The One With The Thrice-Named Queen
In the second of the UGLIE series, we examine the possible setting of the "terrible oath" of Terribellus. Also we make almost-risque jokes about one of the strangest tales, of desire and untoward consequences of the same. Kindly stop sniggering! We end the episode when the three names mentioned in the title are justified, in a way. Link to earlier post in the first paragraph. A few explanatory off-server external links, including a few of foot-tapping numbers on Youtube (content not owned by us).

UGLIE 01: The One Where Terribelus has a Terrible Start
In the first of the UGLIE series, we discuss the divine origins of Terribelus, the son of King Pacificus Atomus of the Kingdom of Elephantiston. Kindly stop sniggering! We stop dramatically just when the seeds of his misfortune are visible in the narrative. A few explanatory off-server external links.

UGLIE 00: The Prologue
Just a prologue to a proposed series. Based extremely loosely on an epic I love. To bits. As promised to a dear friend and batch-mate on an instant-messaging platform.

The Right to be Wrong
After a few days of stalking the inter-web, a middle-aged person decided to speak up about a phenomenon. The phenomenon of "militant" methods of convincing. The phenomenon of increasing sightings of logical fallacy examples, in the wild. An arbitrarily long list of fallacies was drawn up with some dense language pasted for company. Under the able guidance of a more culturally clued-in friend examples were teased out of Bollywood.
