As an After thought

I don't quite understand these people who are always trying to get into the record books. Longest fingernails? Most dung beetles eaten? Huh?... You know, as far as I'm concerned, there's only one world record that I'd like to break someday: World's Oldest Living Human Being! Absolutely no special skills and very little effort involved. You just basically have to outlive everyone else... Yeah I know, it's a lifelong challenge, but it sure beats having the record for the world's biggest tumor. Or at least the most beautiful person on Earth. Well if you have doubts or problems in accepting the fact then I think you better speak to my mom about it.

Well coming to the post...the post could be considered a continuation of the previous post.. No its not a Sequel or a Prequel...its just the title...there were times when I was considered a Stigma in the colony where I lived and out lived the rest....And once again its about my childhood times where everyone around me and other than me were fools. Thanks to Aamir Khan for making me remember those days....( If you have'nt watched TZP.. pls. watch it)

I have a scar in my left hand. Every one has a story behind the scar...Here is what happened one day..

Everyone in my home went to the nearby temple one evening. I didn't go. No. I am not an atheist. Its just that I don't go.I was all alone in my home. The time was 8.00 pm. We had an empty plot behind my house. The stray dogs there started to bark suddenly. More to that, that day was an Amavasya...The windows started to flutter. Swoosh.. the power went...The entrance gate opened. I heard someone coming near the Main door.

Mr.X.: Is there anyone in the house????
Me: One Min.
I went hurriedly and lit a candle. I applied ashes on my forehead.. just in case
As I thought, that man scared the shit out of me.

Me: Yes. What do you want?
He: Kiddo, is there anyone at home?
Me: How could I tell him no one is there? What will he do if I say so? Will he kidnap me? Will he threaten my mom for a huge ransom?
Else is he going to attempt a robbery?
Me: Hmmm.. You tell me. Amma is taking rest. ( Ha.. Now he wont try to barge in !!!)
He: Actually, Can you tell me how to go to Door No. 87?
Me: ( Huh! ) Is that all you want man? Sigh!!!! Oh There are 2 ways. One is go right and go straight...
He: Straighta?
Me: Yes.. Take a turn in ur 2nd right....GO till the end of the road.. Then take another right turn....Go straight to the dead end...There you can find Door No. 81...
He: Thax Kiddo
Me: And ... even befor I could say anything huh he left....!!!
Bad luck for him!!!| Did you guess? Here is the Map of the route and the street!!!! Aaaarghhhh!! I forgot to tell you that my house no is. 78...

Now coming to the scar part....Less than ten mins. my mom came home.. And the power too...Well i rushed outside..Went to door no. 87...peeped in to check if that scary man had come...Oh He had come and was having a laugh at how I had fooled him..He saw me .. I turned to run not wanting to get caught....Psst.. I fell down and now my left leg knee has a long scar!!!

Down the memory lane

Well, Let me first apologise for not updating regularly. But today I decided come what may, I would Wish You all....Each and every on of us carry some sweet memory of some new year...Here is what that happened some years back.....

I think at that time I was in 9 or 10 STD. I had an elder sister then. Infact she was not like me. She was very good looking, talented and on the contrary she was very intelligent. On that year, she had joined college.

Unlike me who would go back home a bit early to late night, she comes home on time ...somewhere between 4.00 - 5.00 pm. If she would be coming late, she would keep my mom posted.

Date: Dec.31...
Time: 6.00
Mom's position: Running between the entrance to Kitchen and to the terrace to have the view of the road. Poor thing not even once did she remember then that the coconut trees around my home would hide the view. I saw her jumping to get the view of the road...

Time:6.30 pm
Mom's position: Seated at the entrance. Actually i called her inside. But I think she was enjoying the kisses from all the mosquitoes.

Time: 7.00 pm
Mom's position: Running between Street corner and house. That was when the girl in the next street came to see my sister....I had nick named her as Kanchenjunga...dont ask me the secret of that name, then I would forced to say a lie that it was her teeth....

KJGA: hi bee. call ur sis.
Me: Whoa. So you have come home is it?
KJGA: What r u trying to say?
Me: It means she hasnt come home as yet. Wait lemme call my mom
My mom: KJ, did you both not come together?
KJ: Ho, no autny..actually i didnt go to college today.
( I very well knew that it was a lie. JUst before she had told me that my sis left on time and that she had been to the library.)
Me: Is it? Oh OH!!
With that she stared at me and left my worrying mother more worried.
Me: Amma, I think she would have eloped with someone...
My mom: Dare not speak about my gal to me...k...
Me: Ok..She escaped...and am like the monkey stuck in between...

Time: 8.00 pm...
Mom: In the verge of crying..
ME: Mamma look here.. i know she doesnt have the guts to elope...but you have to think of other options as well...May be some one could have kidnapped her...
Mom: Please will you stop that nonsesnse
Me: Yeah! I only want to but...
Mom: What will i say to your Dad?
Me: There u are...so you are worried that pappa would scold you is it?
Don worry I will call him up and tell him...( that time my Dad was placed at Vadodara..)
Mom: shut up!

I wasnt bullied or never felt insulted.. afterall she is my mom. she has every right to say it...
Me:Huh! If they had kidnapped her, why no one has called us to ask for ransom?
Me: Lets hope that they dont spoil her....

Thud ....oh that was the sound of the bat which she threw at me...

Time: 8.30 pm
Mom: Took a cold bath. Came out shivering. Prayed to our Lord for her safe return. You know the funniest part was, she wanted her priceless daughter for just Re. 1/- which she tied in a small yellow cloth and kept it it the hundi...

Time: 8.45 pm
My sis returned...She was all smiles...not worried, there was no ounce of tension that she had been late...she walked in cooly...
After all the shouts and arguments.. she had been to her friends place.. she had called us..no one answered the phone.. so she taught that we have all gone out and that she would come a bit late. SHe had been tryin and tryin till 8.15 and after that she had started from her friends place. Hoping to fight with us for leaving her.

Incidentally the phone was out of order from noon. She certainly didnt know....

That's the end of the story...
Wish you all a Happy Happy and a Most happening NEW YEAR...............

Am Back !!!!

Though Not with a Bang.. At least I know I have made it

Before that Sorry Sorry Sorry..............Sorry for not updating this space for such a long time.. Which Even I didnt anticipate....So why did I not update it regularly?

Was Buzee Man....C'mon understand....

SO to start with what do I write now???????? Huh! It looks that its been a long time ever since I wrote.. well i just read a tag in some unkmnown random link i read....

Ten things I miss having in my life now...Gotcha! Thats hell of a Topic.. Whadya say?

1. I miss all the pocket money from my dad. Now stop grudging that my dad gave me more than what I required then...
Am telling you about the money that he kept in his pocket..which I took it whenever possible...Papa, do you now know where all those missing Rs.100/-'s went?

2. I miss the summer vacation I spent in my Nanni's house...she used to flatter me for all those naughty naughty things I did ...She spoilt me a lot more than anyone..

3. The mangoes we ( myself, my sister and our friend) stole from the neighbors tree...

4. The thrashings I got from my momma for all the activities(sorry I cant much elaborate it here.. Isn't it pappa?) I did...

5. Sitting on the terrace and trying to peek a boo at the neighbour's first floor...( Pappa don read this... You will hate me) I think I had just completed my 12th STD. Myself and my dear friend tun tun we had a nice pass time...A just married couple had moved in to the first floor next door..
Seeing him we would go to the terrace and would wait for their romance to start...Oops now don think bad of me OK...All we got to see was the catch me if you can game played round and round the bed...after that it would go dark...This dint interest us for a long time.. we were initmidated only for a weeks time... after that it was Naayy...

6. The mid afternoon sleep on Saturdays after an oil bath and a heavy meal...

7. The play ground and the amateur foot ball, basket ball and the throw ball played there...

8. Being the guardian angel for the class mates who met their beau and love in the evening after tution hours...though i never had had the opportunity to have one...

9. The samosas and Ice creams I ate at Sea Kings...

10. My parents sent me out (!!!! Sory Papa.. I know how much peace it brought you rather) when I was 18 and still living far away from them.. I miss my Home...

Don't wait for me to tag you all....

Whats Happening???

India is a country known for its Traditions and Cultural Values. A country which respects women and mother hood. How true is this statement? For, here is one news which has made me think if that was a much hyped propaganda....Am ashamed. Its a Shame. How could they do this? What was this photographer who took this doing then? Ha! He was adjusting his position, zooming in to get the picture perfect photo of a woman!!!! Had he gone to prevent it chances are he would be killed. DIE MAN. Die trying to save a Lady.Than seeing a woman being harassed by a group of men. Oh well, its your proffession to take Photographs. Well, will youthink of atleast placing a finger on the camera if it had to be your daughter?

I do understand that this is a material evidence...but is it necessary to publish it? Will the publishers...dare to put his/her daughters, mothers wife's or sis pic like this? What the F**K are they trying to do by repeatedly airing this news piece? Do you want to increase your TRP rating at the cost of her agony? If all you bother is your rating, Go MEdia Go... You have the Page 3 News Item..She is not a News..Its her life... She is all blod and Flesh...Bloody Mother F****ers.....How could you Air it like that? May be, for one she cannot go public and say it was her who was stripped and molested and sue you. Second, its your Bloody Media Rights... I feel like hanging the man who coined the word Freedom of Press.

And, What a Pic Man? What a News? We Indians should be proud of these...Isn't it true that October 2nd, every year is remembered only as DRY DAY...

Now that we know the news including You and Me....what are we going to do for this? If we remember, we will make a follow up for the case... What happens to that Woman? Ha! She is being compensated with Rs.1 Lakh. The goverment of Assam has fixed this rate for Her Self-Esteem. Her esteem, her pride shattered is now sold to Government........What more as always the law will take its own course...Yeah..But How many years will it take its course to give this woman the justice?

Now what do we do about this? WEll, how many of us have considered the election day as one another Govenrment Holiday.. A break from the high pressured Schedule....!!!! We have happily sat back, criticising the politicians....
----------------
If a bomb explodes the state gov. says the IB has not given us prior information. This coalition says that the Gov. is at fault and the gov. in the centre says its the fault of XYZ... Its Bloody politics when the lesser known and ordinary citizens loose their material and life.

Am torn. Their dreams their hopes, their love, their aims and above all a peaceful death which every living creature deserves has been shattered. Don't they deserve a much dignified death. I certainly don't want to be blasted with my brains and kidney and my leg and hands torn...They would have been more happy if they do lose their life in a War against our enemy. Now all of this has happened because of a few corrupted men - Men who are in Power. For whom your life and mine are to be shed for their long stay in power. As PH some time back said here...Am disturbed and worried to the core.
----------------

This is MY India..But this is not the India I want to live in....

If Switzerland, Singapore Bangkok could curb corruption, money laundering Why not India? Things would definitely take a change when the IAS Officers, IPS, Medicos mend their ways Stop begging...Isn't taking money from you and me by use of power a forced act of Beggary?

I read that a Politician hanged himself when he was proved corrupt...Am not asking for the politicians to hang themselves...I know not even one politician would be alive.. All I ask them is to have a little conscience...Thats enough for the country's prosperity.
