NK and DP, thanks for sharing your ideas and experience. N-kanchhi, it seems that u are really 'nakkali' :) and why do u need to draw the blinds to go naked; Sanyukta Rajya Amerika jasto prajantantrik muluk ma basera pani yesto? On a serious note, if only I was anywhere near US, we could organize a competition as to who could pile up the dishes higher on the sink. BTW, did I mention that I have also stolen or rather 'put to good use' the milk from my housemates. Anyways that would have gone sour by the time they returned :) cheers
