Fortnightly updates

Am back again.. I am tired of saying it again so much so that saying it time and again would give the terminator a complex. A serious one at that. Been too busy and all that sort of crap. God bless Komodo who keeps thinshark going.

2 weeks back I was asked to change my profession. I turned firefighter coz they brought me in for firefighting. Techie to solutions designer to firefighter all in a days work. Do it or Do It they said. And I chose Do It. 2 weeks I’ve been oblivious to whats happening around me. But while I was at it here’s what I picked up.

While I was at it some holy cow or should I say bull chose to impersonate a dead saint of a warrior clan. As we have it in our country anything related to saints can result in violence and this time was no exception. Up north they burnt and killed, property and people respectively. The dude who was caught impersonating did all that needs to be done, i.e he apologized and retraced his apology a couple of days later. They even had a Punjab bandh yesterday but the issue hasn’t died down. Probably after a decade or so the people there seem to have a lot of free time on their hands. The only positive outcome of all this mayhem was that I learnt a new term “Dera Saccha Sauda” loosely translated to “Lair True Transaction”. Whatever that means.

While they were at it our blue eyed band of cherry chucking models beat mighty Bangladesh in their own country. And as it always happens, we always eulogize a butcher for killing his cow. This time was no exception. The only exception that seems to happen these days seems to be in code ever since they started code cleanup here.

Then one fine day when I had a bit more free time I happened to switch on the idiot box. The nasal crossbow is coming out with a movie “Aap Ka Surrroooorrrrr” with an equally pathetic punchline (ask GAG he knows best). He was judging a once brilliant now crappy music contest and ended up quarreling as they always do on reality shows these days. A news channel proclaimed that he was doing this to generate TRP for the show as he’s being paid 14crores to be a judge on that show. But honestly the guy can act. He doesn’t need to act like a moron. At that he’s a natural. But he can act like a serious demented potentially parkinsonized person which can give any S R or K a run for his money.

More recently yesterday the most comic thing. Dawoods sister was finally produced before court and she came up with a brilliant idea. She sent 2 veiled women running towards the court and when the media ran after them she with entered the court in a veil. Media realized albeit a bit later and they said “she sent 2 lookalikes to fool us”. Moral of the story “all veiled women are look-alikes”.

Maninder Singh (former Indian cherry chucker who got hit for sixes often and hit a six once and now is an umpire in Super Sixes) was found with cocaine ½ gm they say. Well finally he’s got his place in the sun.

Firefighting is almost over at my end now which is why I chose this time to write. The gory details will soon follow. Will shortly be back with more stuff.

Cheers
