Heart Broken

2006-03-09T15:23:50Z

People who know how much i cared and loved my car , white maruthi Zen (Ka 05 z 3789) which was my first car and was with me from Oct'98 will defnitly agree am heart broken today.A car which was 8 years old and not even painted once and taken all my 72000 kms bad driving is no more with me now.

The one good thing about this is i have sold the car to a fren of mine and will be seeing it always. The sale deal include i get the car back for my wedding day on which i will use the same. :-)

Death sure at times is a blessing in disguise.

I came across this elderly person aged around 90+ and was in his last final days about 6-7 months ago, he was unable to move and everything had to be done on the bed , due to immobility there were wounds in his back and his eyes almost blinded. I heard he died today and i am extremely happy for the same. I donno if that person wanted to die or stay alive.

I'm in for mercy killing ... when a person in such a miserable state wants to die he should be allowed to go ahead. When every minute you live is like hell whats the fear in going to the hell ???

Lucky are those who die without going through all this.

Just a thought,

The past is beautiful and the future is bright , but the present is always boring.

Budget Home Mela

2005-08-20T02:31:25Z

I quit my job in IBM and got my freedom on 4th of July 2004 .... roamed aimlessly wasting away time for about a year but in the little time i could find in between managed to be part of few small scale apartment projects which is what my folks do. Now thats my full time work.

I once used to sit in AC rooms pretending to be programming but now its no more easy money for me , i get tanned everyday in the sun for hours. So HDFC noticed this hard work from our side and selected us in the list of 35 builders in the city for its 'Budget Homes Mela' being held @ Kanteerava Indoor Stadium over the weekend 10Am - 8Pm. We are at stall No. 16 . So do visit us if you are free over the weekend.

You the highly paid guys n gals ('the cream of India' as Dilip once said) when looking to buy an apartment can also consider your old fren :-)

Magal Pandey - The Boring

2005-08-15T16:33:07Z

I am glad i survived the 1857 mutany. A great story dragged to boredom.

I again think that the Indian film makers are keen upon the 180 min benchmark for a big budget movie. The story line suits only 90 min and it has been streched.

The movie fails to glorify Mr.Pandey, so what should have been done is he being hanged by the intermission time and the second half depicting the First War of Independence.

Success Secret Finally Formulated

2005-07-27T16:40:38Z

Problems may come like "Haywards 2000" "Haywards 5000", but you must take it as a "Royal Challenge" otherwise people will call you an "Old Monk" and stick a "Black Label" on you. But if you must fight like a "Napolean" live like a "Bagpiper" walk like a "Jhonny walker" and work till "8 PM" think of "Something Special", then your life will be like "Imperial Blue". If you do the above things you will get a "Royal Salute" and there will be a great value for your "Signature".

MMS == Miss Mallika Sherawat

2005-07-15T08:30:53Z

So do we really care if thats Mallika or her look alike.

Well i dont.But if thts a look alike then shez much hotter and bolder i guess.

But i am surpised to see her being surpised on this issue. If she can think people will vote her to victory over Vajpayee (her statement during previous polls) she shouldnt be shocked over this. I rate her as the most stupidest woman in the film land.

Cars are back on my mind

2005-07-08T17:11:58Z

BMW X5 was what i used to rate as the best SUV seeing it in the neighbourhood , but you got to watch out for all new 2006 Mercedez M Class.

I always used to feel Mercedez could come up with something better when ever i had a look at the previous M Class, finally they have come out with something which can totally outclass the X5.

But i'll settle for a "Skoda Yeti" when it finally hits the roads. Well let me take my CRV past the 10,000 mark first, its still done a lil over 2500 kms from Nov 04 :-(

No aint comming up with a best seller .... so u r all safe. I asked this cousin of mine aged 5 a simple question to which i expected him to give a wrong answer but he turned out too smart.
Q : Why do apples fall down from the tree ?
A : Coz if it went up we couldnt eat them.
Gravity, if tht was his answer then there would been something wrong with him .... he has given me the perfect answer for his age.

Sunday !!!!

2005-04-24T18:21:43Z

Lots of things (good, bad , ugly) to tell so let me put it in the cronological order.

1> I was always a beliver in love at first sight, but now i have learnt the next line of this. Love at first sight is fine as long as you leave at the first sight. Thts been my experience with golf .... was a good enough day .... i expected too much out of myself.

2> Had no plans for the TEMPTATIONS show , but when i was offered a pass worth 10K for free just couldnt say "no". Never been a big fan of SRK but now i am ... also a fan of his humour. He called upon a few people on stage but can assure you calling up of the man 'Mohammad Asif' on stage was fixed. We sat in the third row from the stage. Tht guy say just behind us with a big family and they were all talking abt, "when u go on stage talk properly" stuff half an hour later he was called upon. Lucky fella he made home a Tag for making a fool of himself on the stage. Every1 knows of two people who went home with TAG (another lady) but there is a third one .... our very own Kaat. :-)

3> This is a sad part, while coming back a guy was lying on road with the back of his head completly split open and no stopers by finally we managed to get help from the hospital and we left. He was breathing but i dont think he will make it ... but tht unknown guy, his bike number "2050" will be in ma prayers tomorrow.

Too sleepy .... too tired.

My past 10 lives :-)

2005-04-21T11:59:42Z

Many a thanx to fugney for analysing my past 10 lives ... here they are :

The birth before this, you were a rickshaw puller in Shanghai. You were born in 1887. It was a tough life, and you did this for a long time. At age 55, you died from a heart-attack while pulling a particularly fat Englishman. If it is any consolation, the fatso suffered from multiple fractures as the rickshaw fell sideways.

The second birth before this, you were Robert Fulton (November 14, 1765 â€“ February 24, 1815). You were American engineer and inventor widely credited with developing the first steam-powered ship.You were born in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania. You went to England to study painting. Later you worked on steam-engine-powered ships in both England and France.

The third birth before this, you were the son of the royal physician to Ibrahim Lodi, the last of the Delhi sultans, who was overthrown by the Mughals. After Lodi was overthrown your father offered his services to Babur. You were never good at medicene, and took up painting and poetry instead. You were particularly good at this, at received much royal patronage.

The fourth birth before this, you were a viking. You were one of the first Europeans to visit present-day Canada.You settled temporarily at L'Anse aux Meadows under Thorfinn Karlsefni, with as many as 135 men and 15 women. The settlement consisted of 8 buildings, including a forge and smelter, and a lumberyard that supported a shipyard.

The fifth birth before this, you were a merchant in the 8th century AD in present-day Sumatra. Originally from Gujrat, India, you and many like you brought Islam with you. You married a local convert, and had five childrem, three boys and two girls. One of your boys liked to cross-dress in secret. This disturbed you very much.

The sixth birth before this, you were an ironworker in Mozambique in the 2nd century AD. You were among the first wave of Bantu-speaking peoples who migrated from the north through the Zambezi River valley and then gradually into the plateau and coastal areas. You were also a skilled story-teller, having picked up many stories from you grandfather.

The seventh birth before this, you were the tailor to Philip II of Macedon, the father of Alexander the great. Alexander as a young boy ruined many wonderful clothes made by you. You were married, and had but one child, a son. He grew up to become a soldier in Alexander's army.

The eight birh before this, you were a mathematician in Babylonia, around the 16th century BC. You were also well-versed with mythology, but meteorites always confused you. You proposed that they dangerous monsters. A military general, under your advice, tried to shoot them down with arrows. Since the arrows were unfortunately being shot almost straight up, many of them came back and killed some of the soldiers. They "hunting" was then stopped.

The ninth birth before this, you were the member of a semi-nomadic tribe in present-day Korea, about 8000 years ago. You spent much of your time herding. You had 7 children and 32 grandchildren. As you got old, you found it hard to remember their names. One of grandchildren, upset, tried to club you to death. You survived, but with much mental damage. You died 5 years later

The tenth birth before this, you weren't human. You were a Homo antecessor. Your species practised cannibalism. Yes, you ate your own species. Yes, you liked it.

GOLF !!!

2005-04-17T17:03:43Z

I always saw golf as a boring game but i was forced by few of my frens to try my hand at it. So thts wht i did most of this weekend @ Eagleton. I had heard it aint tht simple a game as it looks but to the my own surprise i made an amazing debut to the game which has made a lover of the game. Wow !!! I was too good for a first timer. Specially at the long range shots, consistent too.

So am away from the city for next few weekends finding holes in the greens !!! Getting too old for the other games :-(
