I miss... 2008-07-11 15:45:00 Rains – I miss everything that happens before the rain (the collective effort of all those clouds , the anticipation of it actually raining….and so on) and everything that happens during & after it actually rains (the sound, the smell, the visual, the craving for tea at that time…everything!!). Ohhhhh I miss it all so much.Movie outings - I miss going to mo

Amusement Calling # 1082 2008-07-09 15:44:00 Ever experienced raw amusement, loads of it in its most unadulterated form? I have. Here goes the story. Just for the sheer element of unintended humour in this conversation (and pretty much of it!!), I felt it didn't need the aid of my comments, which I usually insert in these dialogues to let the readers decode my thoughts at that point. But for this one….. my suggestion is sit back, light a c Read more:Amusement

Why do Russians make kickass chess players? 2008-07-04 17:34:00 Somebody forwarded this piece to me recently...
After months of negotiation with the authorities, a Talmudist from Odessa (in Russia) was granted permission to visit Moscow. He boarded the train and found an empty seat. At the next stop a young man got on and sat next to him. The scholar looked at the young man and thought:
This fellow doesn't look like a peasant, and if he isn't a peasant he pr Read more:Russians

Nostalgia one more time!! 2008-07-04 16:47:00 Recently I came across this -
It’s truly something... More than 90% schools in India are covered and not only the city schools at that. Yes many villages are covered too...... I dont know how those guys did it!!! Of course, Africa is not covered in such detail but apart from that the site claims to have covered all other continents. Isnt it something?

When I read his name in the chat window saying hi, I was sure he must have read the post about himself and had decided to confront me about the same. Getting messaged again by him, on t Read more:Amusement

Amusement Calling # 1037 2008-07-01 10:09:00 There’s a joke in my family that if I marry a Tamilian, we would cover the majority of south India between us 3 sisters. You see one of my sisters is married to an Andhraite and the other one to a Keralite. Very recently after someone cracked this joke, I happened to see a mail in my inbox from a Tamilian (Courtesy – One of those two matrimonial sites I am on).That brought a smile to my fa Read more:Amusement

What colour is your Brain? 2008-06-29 04:17:00 I attended a Management Training recently where I was told what colour is my brain. It was a very interesting exercise and gave some real good insights.

You're content with what you have in life, and you can't stand feeling worked up.
A lot of good things tend to come your way in life...
You're not too busy or stressed to let an opportunity pass yo

Same night 28th Jul , 2007 Flip - I pity you...
When I checked my mail 3 days later this really pissed me off. Either Flip wasn’t a fan of caution while using such words as “pity” or like I have mentioned before maybe he just liked the dialogue between us only when I was provoked. (This latter realization has dawned upon me only

A couple of days later or so, I think I received a genuine sounding apology email.(I have lost that email somewhere, so no verbatim here) Now I know Mr. Flip had taken too many U-turns however me being me, I couldn’t ignore a genuine apology. I replied accepting the apology. He wanted to meet. I said ok… but somehow we could never agree on

How to spot an Indian in my office!! 2008-07-19 09:35:00 Its human nature to generalize things, patterns & trends. Building on this premise , this is how we Indians (about 4-5 of us in the office

We do not waste time in exchanging pleasantries. We get straight to the point. E.g. A mail from an Indian would read simply “When can I have this report?” as against a mail from a local asking the
