So I got tagged by Bharat a few days ago.

This event was brought to my notice today thanks to the new wordpress dashboard (which rocks, btw!). This set a chain of events in motion which included me wondering what the hell a tag is and how one responds to a tag, since my only understanding of a tag stems from my days as an avid wrestling fan when I was in school (for those who don’t know - getting tagged in wrestling is a way for one big, ugly muscled man to get his partner ugly, huge guy into the ring to beat on the poor unfortunate soul who tends to be their opponent. This was a source of constant delight to me - I know. I am weird). Therefore, after a few minutes of recollecting such greats as the  Road Warriors, the Steiner Brothers, the Minnesota Wrecking crew, etc.  and a few minutes of disbelief at the amount of time I used to spend on that, I decided to find out how to respond to the same.

SO … here goes the result (for potential employers/ management school board members, this is not a comprehensive depiction of my personality - the actual meaning not the Indian one ):
