Unless you've been living your entire life in a cave sans Internet, you've assuredly heard of Tintin, that intrepid boy reporter who traverses the globe like Jame Bond except with way less sex. ZenithOptimedia Managing Director Hari Krishman has certainly herad of Tintin and he's embedded the boy into his life. No, not that way, sicko. Read on.

Krishman has tricked out his house with a Tintin-style bar he calls Haddock's Den, named after the eponymous Captain Haddock from the Tintin book comic book series. The bar consists of Tintin character paintings created by Krishman which include renderings on Tintin, Captain Haddock, Bianca Castafiore, Oliveira Da Figueira, Dr. Muller and Colonel Sponz.

The bar also includes a collection of 35 hard-bound copies of the Tintin books. Of the collection, Krishman says: "I have all of them including the recently released Tintin in Congo, which was released four years ago, and Tintin in the Soviet, which was the first comic drawn in black and white. It was published two or three years ago."
