The song in your head is the souvenir

All the characters and real and all the incidences took place. The Names of the characters have not been changed in the hope this book will make all of them rich and famous and in that order.   This is another cheap shot at that .     Have you been here before. Anoop asks Balu when sitting down for lunch on Thursday afternoonish. Balu gives his usual chuckle, one never knowz if that is a yes or a no.     Balu is pre-decided on chicken stroganoff . Anoop settles for 2 Mutton Puffs. Tells Balu about the availability of Mutton Pups in bangalore. Something in the conversation triggers of a talk on light and how it would be a great time to shoot. "Fucker ask, I have my camera in the bag." just before a bite of mutton puff goes into Anoop's gut. One of the few times the mutton puff tasted as desired and mental note made. Chicken Stroganoff is going to take a while. Balu takes a bite of the other Mutton Puff on my plate.  Joey does not share food.     A huge ...

I dared to go to my school website and this is what I found Description of the school ( as mentioned on the website) : Situated at the heart of Bangalore's commercial centre, amidst lush green, serene campus sprawling over an area of 6.303 hectares, it stands in solitary splendour of peace and tranquility-a haven of learning and knowledge.There are 59 class rooms, 04 labs, 03 computer labs and 09 other rooms.The campus has ample space for Sports activities and special provision for conducting volley ball, basket ball, kho-kho, hand ball and related sports. Belief of the School ( I THINK ) The vidyalaya believes in encouraging each student to dream, believe, dare and DO! This is the stealer. I wonder who thought of this. Let us aim to make them Better citizens of the country and the world – Great, noble thought Develop a holistic personality – Okay, would not want to dispute that. Promote National Integration – This also we need. All Indians are my brothers and sister. ( there use...

Monsoon is here ….ya for once the monsoon is on time, I am rather late in reporting it… what is there to report… see it around Anyway that was not the reason I thought of this post. Nowhere that I know of is the monsoon awaited with the anticipation mumbaikars do. Throughout the country there are millions who are looking forward to it, though it brings power cuts,, not being able to move around easily etc. But I saw in Mumbai was completely different. Here is the city gets to battle the rain… almost as if it is not welcome but has become an annual event. The government start pointing fingers at each other knowing fully well there is nothing they can do to prevent the going to happen, even though they face the same thing year on year. There are people selling umbrellas while getting completely wet. Makes me wonder do people actually forget about the rains until the monsoon hits them. They rather buy a new one than store one from the previous year or are just too lazy to search. Wha...

NOTE - I have not reread or proof checked the copy. I am not making a point. Assume ... Have u gone to chemist to purchase Vitamin C Medicine, you would know what I am talking about. Itz not available in any store in Delhi .   How can somebody just stop manufacturing these Tablets when there is a demand for it. Or did I miss the bus when the country went from being Vitamin C deficient to vitamin C sufficient country.. If that has not happened then what. Theory one The end time is here, these are clear signs. Slowly the population will go week. Then the population will be easy to control. Some evil forces are at it to take over the world. They have spent years in making sure they place the right guy at the decision making level so as the master plan will just unfold one July Morning. Counter – This will take for ever, can’t evil use better tools to gain control. Like the spread of credit cards. Counter to the counter – Well Vitamin C is what I have noticed, credit card is ...

Drive back from bihar (actually one of our clients where everybody is from lallu land)……..don’t remember how the conversation reached here but then we ( My branch head who is an Iyer boy with the qualities a sardar would also find aspirational , the other a rajastani by birth but has forgotten that the best humps are found back home not in delhi… and me well,, the less said the better) were talking how religion and more importantly the cast system is still prevalent in India,,,, and how the Brahmin boy rose in rank though he is not the brave warrior …. This we proved simply by having a cursery glance at the Indian army ,,,we have all kinds of regiment ,,the Sikh regiment, the gorkha the Rajputana rifles etc …but look as hard as you can you will never find a Iyer regiment … ya no Nairs,,,no naidu’s none of it …….
