Taking an Electronics class for two years during my college (High school for Americans) has always led me to believe that I know a lot about the electronic world when in fact all I know is a few electronic terms. This comes especially handy when some electronic engineer comes to me with his woes. While[…]
“…And words are all I have to take your heart away…”By Bee Gees No, not true. Coupled with the words from my previous post on the Acura TSX I have managed to upload a few videos of the Engine, Exterior and Interiors. When I was car shopping, I exhausted all printed media, published or uploaded.[…]
The unassuming 2006 Acura TSX in its serene blackness manages to pass off as an introvertIt’s no BMW. It’s actually engineered by Honda.

For all those who are hooked to www.raaga.com, I recommend this alternative! www.dhingana.com Apparently, it has some sort of three layered filter that makes the songs sound crispier. But most importantly, I don’t[…]
Let’s starts with the basics. Toyota sucks. I know it’s a bold statement but do hear me out. I have nothing but respect and admiration for Toyota as a car manufacturer.
