This is a really nice blog! And I dont say that often. I really enjoyed going thru your old posts. Smriti Rao, eh? ;-) She's real interesting to talk to, as well!
And the metal quiz rocks! Am kicking myself for not knowing some, forgetting some, and being tip-of-tongue for some. No fun in googling them either...so I'll just wait for the answers. Put fastly!

heh heh. If by adverbial error u meant 'fastly', or 'real', they were both intentional. But you couldn't have known that 'fastly' and some other words are from the Non-Sensei's very own dictionary. ;-)
Now, put up the answers fastly! :-D
