Weather....

Rainy weather is good only if you are outside the four walls..becomes dull if you are inside the house / office!!!!!!

Good one.....

Conversation between colleague and myself:

Me: sleeping....

Colleague: asking about you, NOT about your BOSS!!!!!!!!!

Quote from "Men of Honor' movie

Was watching yesterday "Men of Honor" movie. Liked the quotes very much..

"My name is Master Chief Billy Sunday. There was a preacher by the same name who cleaned up Chicago of all the whoring spics, drunken wops and mother fucking niggers that was making that place unfit for decent white folks to live. The only difference between me and that old preacher is that he worked for God, and I am God!"

(Robert De Niro as Master Chief Billy Sunday) 

"A Chief Petty Officer shall not drink. However, if he should drink he shall not get drunk. If he should get drunk, he shall not stagger. And if he should stagger, he shall not fall. And if he should fall, he will fall in such a manner as to cover up his rank so that passer byers will think he is an officer"...Robert De Niro

"The Navy Diver is not a fighting man, he is a salvage expert. If it is lost underwater, he finds it. If it's sunk, he brings it up. If it's in the way, he moves it. If he's lucky, he will die young, 200 feet beneath the waves, for that is the closest he'll ever get to being a hero. Hell, I don't know why anybody'd want to be a Navy diver"...Robert De Niro

You were right, Chief. You and I have nothing in common. I may be some dirt dumb nigger from Podunk, but at least I'm making something of myself. You, you're the same hateful, little man you started out as. Without diving, you're nothing but a lost, broke-down son of a bitch who used to be something...Carl Brashear

Kissa pencil ka

Friday: 6.10pm. time to leave office. had  sudden urge to scratch the back...everything was already packed...first thing came in handy was the pencil.....happen to glance at the pencil, colour was different, unlike RIL stationary orange coloured...then remembered it was the pencil from Sofitel (recently attended a seminar)....casually mentioned to Karthik that I carried the pencil back with me....had an ounce of guilt that I picked up the pencil from hotel....he responded saying "you paid for the conference".......Oh no...was thinking what else could I  have taken it from there?!!!!!!!!!!! 

Tea @ Sofitel....

Attended a seminar at Sofitel hotel at BKC, Bandra... Supposedly a five star hotel.....Was surprised to see waiter serving tea from a kettle in a glass ....the one you will find at tapri chai.....the kettle too was not washed properly......What aesthetic purpose did it served....still not able to understand!!!!!

A guest at my place...

Once again my home is invaded by a tiny LIZARD!!!!!!!!!...sometimes I really feel instead of attending work related or personal development courses, I should be attending courses on shooing away the lizard(s)!!!!!!...Life has come to a complete standstill since the arrival of the lizard...at the time of my leaving the house, she was lurking in the kitchen area...Have not entered kitchen for 2 days.....not even to drink water......Yesterday called the security fellow twice but failed to find the lizard...Told the security person that I am totally a sane person.....probably she knows the security people, that is the reason doesn't dare to come out J

Finally, have called the pest control people on sunday..They wanted to know which solutions they should be carrying with them when they come....Asked me the reason to the pest control done....Told them, there is one lizard at home!!!!!!!!!!!!.........

MANGO

I wanted to buy a gift for my niece's birthday...Went to Santacruz to  buy her a dress along with my friend Niyati. Her house is surrounded by all the top branded shops. We went to MANGO...(guys this is for u: this is one of the costliest brand in clothing, even now I dread to buy Mango stuff). Bought one very simple top for her. Pl dont go on the word SIMPLE..since niece is still in the school, thought of buying reasonably priced stuff...Only the "top" was worth Rs. 2K..She didnt like the design..cannot say as usual becos this is the first time she didnt like the one which I bought. (comforting myself J.......)Went to change the TOP....thought of buying stuff for me instead of buying for her (Gave her Gift coupons)....Searched, Searched and searched for a simple reasonably priced stuff but cldnt find it..Ultimately zeroed it on a trouser..then realised the amount was not matching....short of Rs. 200/-....There was nothing worth Rs. 200..decided to forgo the amt..but then Niyati said to check some T-shirts....Bought one costing Rs. 700!!!!!!!!!!....had to pay 500 more....The main underlying fact is that the T-SHIRT was such that it can be worn only at home and not outside....when I was settling the bill,  my friend commented.....CANNOT AFFORD TO EAT MANGO BUT CAN AFFORD TO WEAR MANGO AT HOME!!!!!!!!!!.....was thinking CAN I REALLY BE CATEGORISED AS "MANGO PEOPLE"??/AAM JUNTA AS COINED BY SHASHI THAROOR.....
