About Me

My photo
Balaji Sundaresan
NJ, United States
I have this "little" 75 lb chocolate colored guy named Max and he has been the catalyst for my metamorphosis. Ever since he came into my life, I have been trying to subside that ape inside me.
Blogging is proclamation of my ignorance to the world, the willingness to learn and an effort to get rid of my cognitive dissonances.

I am I because my little dog knows me. - Gertrude Stein
