Terrorism raises ts ugly head again!


Mangled remains of a cycle, packets strewn all over, blood splashed on the walls or roads as if someone has just drawn a magnificent painting on a canvas. Except that the canvas was Ahemdabad. We could see the motto of our ‘enemies’ or rather enemies of mankind coming alive as the calendar shifts from 25th to 26th july. Can see it as a monster trying hard to win a losing battle, but in reality showing us its real weakness! All we have to be is in KORN’s words ‘Hold on...Be strong!’
I don’t blame the authorities for not being able to follow up on a warning that is an e-mail, which warns rather vaguely. All i can do is sit here type a fucking blog wondering what i could have done. And the answer is nothing, plainly nothing. All we can do is just sit on our couches, sip tea and look at our men being killed as if a story is being written by a brilliant author and we are the readers! We sit here seeing the hunter get hunted! And what can we do? Just maintain calm and peace...simple isn’t it!
Anyway i have written this blog all over again coz the first time i wrote this piece it was way too strong, you know what i mean...thankfully i did not get carried away with emotion!
I hope with full belief that the ones injured be fine as soon as possible and those dead, may their souls rest in peace!

Bollywood Masala!
The last post did bring in some criticism from the female folk(in form of written comments as well as verbal!), well that was expected though!
What surprised me, were further requests to write about adult ahem stuff! Well dude it was a one-off attempt with it!

Due to virtue of some fate i chanced upon an old bollywood movie starring the beautiful yesteryear actress Hema Malini. It somehow always happens that, whenever i wish to see a movie on the idiot box i end up watching only its end & from there i intend to understand what would have conspired in the beginning of the plot! So here i was watching the end of this movie (whose name i have obviously forgotten!). Hema Malini ends up on a truck which takes her all the way to villain’s base camp!
Now here is the interesting part, i did not get why the villain’s base camp has always to be in a cave with an automated door and it never ceases to wonder me, on how he would manage to keep his army(all clad in green uniform) in a hidden cave which is conspicuous by its absence, and probably has not been discovered till a hero comes to the rescue of his beloved or in some cases his mother and small sister(who are usually used as pawns in this game of LIFE & DEATH :p)!!!

Well okay, he lives in a cave with his army, big deal. But how did he manage to keep all those machines making beeping sounds with little variations and those LED lights blinking on them regularly!
Ok well he has managed to keep them, but what does he do of it?????
I mean does he plan to launch a rocket?!? Or plan a mission on the moon!
Well movies(not only from bollywood) are strange...what the heck we still love the way the hero comes to the rescue of the hostages and spoils the evil planzzz of the villain and yeah the part when the policemen arrive, not to mention when everything has already been taken care of by our favourite hero!

I am sure there must be a lot of unusual stuff, you would have in mind about our bollywood movies!
Whatsay guys?

The crazy cab driver!
Today i went to siddhivinayak temple with friends, that’s the place where half of Mumbai throngs especially on Tuesday! The experience i had after visiting was pretty unholy to say the least!
Took a cab from the temple to the station, it was a 3 min drive. The cab driver was a very good natured, mind you good natured only for boys...female folk would rather swear at such a guy!

Warning : Content below is adult in nature!

He asked us to rush into the cab and not to delay him...i countered him for that....
So to say in his own words...”
Saala PANDU(traffic policeman) has insects in his ass!
I feel like poking my cab door in his ass! (we were left with our mouth wide open)
He does not allow the car to wait here even for a moment, he wants us to park our car near that hotel(pointing to a hotel)...so that customers can get directly into a cab and they don’t have to wait...that asshole must be getting paid by the hotel...what do you think??? i think we should fill their butts with all the garbage of Mumbai
...(we agree in unison)

Few days back a passenger was wondering when will the rains come, i guess he was wondering so that he could go home early from work and bang his Mrs.
(he went on......)
Ladies feel all romantic in this season, the wet feeling and all....the husbands love to bang them!
There is this guy i know, who is married and bangs a girl from his office. I ferry them almost everyday! This girl had very small boobs, before he started massaging them, and now you should see them, even this girl does not has boobs as big as hers!!!
”(pointing to a girl walking on the pavement!)
(we all burst into laughter!)
He continued.....”
Even this girl does not have boobs as big as hers( pointing to some other girl!) He used to press hers in my cab!
All the workers in the office hope that it rains heavily and they get to go home early....dont you think so???
”(we nodded in agreement...wondering what a jerk he is...but still laughing!)
Alas the destination came too early..;-)
He asked, whether we got bored...my friend replied..”No dude it was like a 3hr movie!”
The fare turned out to be Rrs. 20, though for such a small distance it would have usually been around 14 bucks..Never mind, we paid it happily considering the ‘Entertainment Tax’!

Got Placed! :-)

This has been just the perfect vacation! everything in place...job...friends...family..outings!!!


First the big news: Got placed at Infosys...after an interview, i thought, i would never clear! :-O


As i found out at the end of the interview that it had been a stress interview, had heard a lot about it but never experienced it...LO! here comes my chance...3rd July...i enter the interview cabin with a folder in my hand and a Lexi pen(blue)...that was for more inquisitive people and yeah also a smile on my face!


I wish her, she asks me to take a seat....and here starts the firing..


1. Why D. J. Sanghvi college??? Don't you think it's too showy??? :-O


Tackled somehow...by harping on the infrastructure and faculty..blah blah..


She starts questioning on my Resume...


2. How can you say you have 'effective communication skills'.....????????????


followed by the question on the logo of 'Times of India'?!?!?


Well this was just a start...and it ended somehow...I had complete faith on myself that i would not make the cut (though it was a nice interview from my side)..somehow my name figured out in the final list!!!! woaah!!


Had almost secured Accenture before this..so i was not really worried...still waiting for the result on Accenture though!





Meanwhile i was reading an article by Vir Sanghvi on the recent chain of events on the political side of our country...i have always been amazed on how he has supported his ideas or talks with appropriate examples, whether it is political or culinary, i have always somehow found him unbiased. Though he may support one side more than others at times but that has to do more with what he thinks is right or wrong at that moment! I Have read Barkha Dutt too and somehow always found her being really one sided and giving vague opinions! I am no one to compare the two GREATS but it just bugs me sometimes that how she made it big only due to her hardworking nature rather than sheer talent, i am sure hundreds of you will disagree with me here! I have not found her changing my opinions about situations as drastically as Vir Sanghvi has...


The link below is of the article he wrote for Hindustan Times...

Remember being politically abreast is not what we choose to do...it's our duty!!!


Boy i sound like 40 yr old! ;-)
