The plan before the travel

You are one of those idiotic freaks who plan before a month from the tickets, to the local conveyance, to the lodge, to the food and even to the laundry guy? Then the hidden tip that you can search somewhere in between the post is not for you. What's more, you get worried to your last toe-nail before the travel? Mate, when you are in tension, logic says give a kiss preferably to your opposite gender. Who knows, tension may ignite fire.

I have this habit of packing things 'on the fly'. That fly phrase got to me when one bloke here used that phrase often. Do things on the fly - in mid air. Right now, Swine flu is on the fly which originated in Mexico. So precaution measure experts say, you are not supposed to fly on the fly to Mexico.

I always planned to go to Jim Corbett National Park but it never worked out. Considering that it is just over 250 kms from Delhi, it is nothing of a travel. I asked my room mates and few blokes to see if they are interested to visit the Park in this scorching summer, which touched 43.5 degrees centigrade yesterday.


Considering that they are as sensitive as a lilly, which might sound silly, I did not ask them twice. Suddenly an idea flashed after I spoke to my friend after a long gap, over the chat for few minutes. It felt good talking to her because, because there was once this restlessness with her. Now I am getting restless for a totally different reason even when I see my maid.

What you folks can learn from that is, she is following my blog even at this moment. You should hang your head in shame if you are not following this. You can even refer this stupid site to your friends. It's free..free...free. But beware of eggs flying in your direction when you recommend this blog. So follow the blog, do not follow me.

Any talk about me or my blog, I become so freaking pompous and divert the topic. Glad that you are not a Leo so you cannot understand what I am barking.

So I checked train tickets at 11 pm. Fortunately they are available in Tatkal quota and I should be taking the train today to Ramnagar. How do I go from the station to the Park, I got no idea. I packed my bag last night itself with one jeans and three light t-shirts. I am ready to face the heat. Eh, when I decided to travel in General class even when I do not get ticket where does Summer and heat come into picture. When things happen, they happen fast.


I once had a friend who should be intimated a day before if we plan to a disco. I also had a friend who was given 10 minutes to put the clothes of his choice and run to catch the last bus. If you are with me, you will either be spoiled for choice or be given no choice.

I shall be blogging my trip experience if I am not consumed by famed unseen tigers prowling in the Corbett. This is billed as the third most all time adventurous trip ever taken by man by Time magazine.

Stop rolling your eyes, adventurous because you do not know how long you have to wear your stinking clothes in the heat without washing them. Watch this space for more crap where I will eat your head with tea spoon gram by gram at my comfort.

Something's catching up

Anytime you felt in your miserable life that something is not going your way? I've already ranted on that stuff quite a few times in here but this time it is little different. In the sense, I am doing it again. Go figure.

When your project is done and wait for the next one, those are those moments termed as anxious moments especially in this recession period. What are companies doing when their clients are not giving them projects? They are generating internal projects to show something is going in the Number of projects running database. They also cover it up by saying, we are doing R & D projects which does not have a deadline. Do not share this secret to everyone.


If someone is given a chance to browse whole day in the office, heck, whole week - what is he going to do? Write articles in Bleacher Report, browse Cricinfo, Google news is always handy because it gets updated, vent your spleen at Blogger or sleep on the desk. I've never tried sleeping though. I may with you, if you come to me.

I do have some activity other than barking on you folks all the time, which is bleachering on Federer. Did your brain get creative anytime ? Ok, I do not want to rub salt into your already unhealed wounds. This is my work which tickled few bones when I put my thoughts on what could be the ultimate preparation for Federer at the French Open finals.

My style of writing has also varied from what I used to adopt here. You can see fewer sentences in the paragraph that could make the content more readable. It was a habit that I developed from B/R where I published four articles in a week's time. Whoaa...goes to show since when I had been counting the clock for the scheduled nine hours to tick off in my office.



Looks like I made this habit of composing and publishing articles in record time. Just goes to show, what experience can make you do. It can turn you into an adept professional or an incapable slouch.

I've havent shaven for couple of weeks now since I last went home. Planning to shave again when I go home next. Did I tell you something's catching up? It's my beard if I am lying.

Unforced Errors:

1. Of late, my mom started asking me whether I am into a project or not. Such is the effect of recession hitting the household women.
2. Believing your social network sites such as Orkut, Facebook, hi5, Friendster, Jhoos, Yarri, ne maamma barri etc would bring you more chicks into your grip is as good as believing no hole in your banian.
3. Your mates pose that are adept in coding but they are as dumb as you. It is just that they let their mouth do the talking for no reason.
4. IPL chicks this time in SA are real hot than what they were when it was played in India.
5. Fake IPL blog has already created some ripples in the upper echelons of the game.
6. Just heard a rumour that Bin Laden was killed. Even if he was killed, he left a long lasting legacy which cannot be terminated anytime soon.
7. Without doing HP and coming to the office on Monday morning will cause you for some distraction, especially petite ones.
8. Summers here would be so hot this time that people would be raped with their clothes on.
9. Chewing a gum for three hours in the morning and three hours in the afternoon after lunch could lead into possible of words while expressing yourself.
10. You cannot comment here because you think, "It's not worth even though I enjoyed reading". Thinking great of yourself will not do anyone any favour.

Tjena folks

It's been a while since I last posted here again. Even if you don't threaten me at gunpoint, I would still explain myself to that lone visitor, hoping in anticipation to see a post at this stupid site but returns disappointed.

I went home for a quick break when I took a comp-off for two days and I turned up just today to brighten your day. Meanwhile, the internal reviewers are not letting us breathe. Their reviewers are so strongly oriented that even if there is an indentation fault at some comment part of the code in one section of the file, they are going for our head. While the top dogs say this change is for the good, this dog says, where have you been hiding your balls until recession has hit straight in your face ? Try selling your bullshit to someone. But change is constant, that even your doggy knows.


Right now this is that part of the stage in my miserable life when things don't happen your way. I've been barking on things don't happen your way since you were in your diapers. So do not lose your night's sleep over it.

Just want to mention on few of my colleagues but keeping it to myself because they will do what all stupid things they want to do but at the end, they too need privacy. They should drown themselves down the kitchen sink if they talk something and do the other.

It was some heat in the sleeper class coach in which I was travelling. We were three blokes who booked the train tickets from Del - Hyd on different days but we all got the same berth number, 38, in different coaches. Talk about coincidence. Nothing weird happened other than the train getting delayed at the departing station. So I reached safely with a hair cut.

Unforced errors:

1. Roger Federer finally married his long time girl friend Mirka without ditching her.
2. People were staring at a lady in the train when she was cajoling her 5 month kid in the sleeper class.
3. Chicks in Delhi are any time hotter than any part of India. I am willing to chop my limb over it.
4. After getting raped by our internal reviewers multiple times we were finally given a nod for our project completion.
5. There are some times stupid articles in B/R which I find weird.
6. Political campaign by zoo NTR from his bed at his residence sucked. This shows Balayya lacks balls to deliver a coup-de-grace speech before the polls commenced.
7. IPL is getting started on April 18th and I am telling people when it is getting started.
8. Putting a hand on girl's ass will always make her comfortable and uncomfortable for obvious reasons.
9. I know you find this stupid list more interesting than my rant in the blog.

It's pleasant

The weather that is today. If you start writing something for the sake of writing when you don't have anything this is how it goes......................think.....think........and you start searching for words. The feeling is quite similar to the one when your hands don't come out for your disability on natural coding.

So what do you do when you get sometime on a Friday like this where it's a holiday in Bangalore and Hyderabad in some offices on account of Ugadi ? Go through your Phonebook and make a call to your favourite opposite gender who is your fan and can spend some time with you talking some crap which you would like to hear as well. You know that your Phonebook is just not to store the numbers but is also to maintain good relationships.

When was the last time you made calls one-by-one to the friends of your choice on a normal day? The call is worth more than a rupee you are thinking about.


Ok, on a totally different plane, do you know why more than half the people get so pissed off with their jobs and feel like a change? The reason is this. It is lack of motivation. I am not really at that stage but that motivation station may soon arrive for me as well.

In this recession time (read IBM has cut 5000 jobs recently) you cannot really look for excuses. Work on projects not of your choice and no doubt you would be under the gun if you quibble over the location of the project. The good news is BSE has touched 10,000 mark in a while now. It can be a short recovery but nevertheless some hope to some traders who were brutally assaulted by the index when they invested at 21k mark.

I still am not enrolled into playing tennis. Last year same time when I was learning my abc's of the game and was highly passionate to get on to the court every day. I badly used to wait for the weekend when I was taught the game for just couple of hours. This is 2009 and you see the change.


I am quite good on you today even though I know I am turning lethargic with no activity seen round the corner. It is because today is our New Year and we have a sentiment that whatever we do today, we would be doing the same good thing for the rest of the year. The fact that is also pleasant has also prevented you from receiving some whiplashes.

Not always you end typing a whole lot of crap when you still din't know what you want to type at first. It takes a shape of this course. This is one clear indicator that make a start and you would find some shape to whatever you want to achieve. In my case the end of this post.

Upward swing in your career

This is when you know that's happening in your life.

Virender Sehwag

You will do the unthinkable then. And how do you know that you've achieved something ? You would punch the air like you never did !

Moronic March

It's been quite sometime since I last shitted here. It is because I was occupied with some work (stop rolling your freaking eyes) . We could have some work by the next week but heck, we just celebrated Holi in the middle of the week by hitting eggs and tomatoes on each others head and ofcourse by putting colours. So that I would say was an eventful Holi with my room mates since I last celebrated it in my third year engineering days with my class mates.

It is quite a big occasion here in the North and you can say this would be ranked a close second to Diwali. March is almost half way through and I am still contemplating whether I should be heading for tennis or not. The weather is quite pleasant as of now and I guess it would be just a matter of time before we all are gang raped by the scorching sun coming in April. News that I received from Hyderabad and Bangalore centres by my friends says that people there are already getting unrobed as we head into what could possibly be the daymarish of summers see in couple of years.

Then comes your tax savings. You must have already had your things done and if you haven't then just do it. Who knows you may be given a bad rating at your company's appraisal because you haven't filed your tax returns. Don't believe it ? Then believe this. People are given bad ratings because your CV is there in your job portals - which means you are one of those unreliable employees who is looking for a job change. Go figure that moronic logic.

You must have already seen people huffing and puffing saying this is March and it's the year end. But this is the only place where you can see some serenity in this writers life where you can draw some solace and apply the same to your miserable one. Don't grudge on bad rating and good rating given to some useless junkie. Yes, I know you have been a victim of office politics. So was your Boss in his chaddi days, remember ? Bottomline:

"You will get your day when you can drive the nails instead of getting driven".

I only pray your and my job is safe coz we all live together. If you had already been on the hitlist, I sincerely pray that the global market gets better where we can have the good old secured job days back. Think about standard Govt. jobs where you are secured and crib for life at the same time? How about migrating to an other country?

Not everything comes easy except your belly. Not job, not money, not peace and not an 'Express Interest' from a Matrimony site.

Jai Ho

Folks, thanks to all those who expressed their condolences over my Grandmother's loss and showed some concern over me. My thanks also extends to those lurkers who wanted to tell but kept quiet, which is why they are called lurkers for a reason.

I am alive and kicking now. I've not been publishing anything in B/R so you don't get troubled or bored by the sports shit that I write there. There is not much of tennis activity going on either in any case. So you are left unruffled.

But I do not understand the whole fuss that has been generated over the Oscars where A.R Rahman won a couple of them and Slumdog Millionnaire winning 8 in total. Those freaks who are thinking that it is a proud day for Indians because SDM won 8 should be drowning themselves down the kitchen sink. These are the possible reasons why it won and why you should not be proud.


1. It was directed by an English director.
2. The technical team was totally foreign. So the film comes under English film category than a foreign film one, where many movies would be competing for the best prize.
3. You should not be proud because it showed India in such a bad light and the fact that they showed India in such shape was really appreciated by Westerners coz it appeared real to them.
4. What those MF's don't understand is, anything that is shown in movies is partly true but it is little more than real, in the sense, it is not really real. They still like to see India as a land of snake charmers, slums, elephants, multiple Gods and superstitious people.
5. You nut heads won't understand that there will also be lobbying in Oscars. Hence I do not go gung-ho over those awards. There is no denying that there are prestigious but NOT everything.
6. Haven't you felt that A.R Rahman's score in this film was mediocre as compared to his blockbuster national and regional language hits ? This means that 'The Golden Globe Award' that he won days before the Oscar celebration has played it's part in bringing him the laurels.
7. Children were shown in filth and dirt which I did not enjoy one bit.

But our politicians were quick to take the credit and congratulated the awardees which is good for them. The demure A.R Rahman may not deserve this award but he really deserves an Oscar for the music he has composed and the trend set he has sent in Indian music industry over the years. This shows that you keep working diligently on what you know and one day results will come your way.

A.R Rahman

I'm also surprised at the sudden rush of visitors to my blog after that Roger Federer article. I don't know from where all there are heading in but would be glad if they have their presence felt in here. It's free mate to leave a comment. No, I won't trade your mail id's for anything to someone else, if that is the assurance that you are looking for.

The title is the name of a hit song in the movie SDM. In the morning I suddenly found a girl staring at me in the office, as if, she was waiting for me to smile. But me being a nut head put my head down and walked to my cubicle. What message did the genius A.R Rahman leave in his career? Do your best and leave the rest. Be it doing anything with girls, music, programming, screwing, playing or enlightening you dumb freaks. Jai Ho.
