You are Famous!

Ever wondered how famous each one of us really is?
If you have visited 1 or 2 well known places in your life time, u can be sure that you are famous!
How?
Imagine you visited Eiffel tower once in your lifetime, you spent around 1 hour in the place. With the number of visitors storming the place from all around the world, the place is full of cameras and shots and flashes and poses and smiles.
So if you assume a rate of 1 snap taken in your direction every 5 mins, you would have been captured around 12 times within the hour into random photo shots. Now assuming that all these tourists head out home in different directions. Your photo has already spread into 12 random locations across the world. So you're already famous! But this doesn't end here.
Somtimes these photos find a place in chritmas and new year greetings which are further propogated in different directions.
And this could just go on!
So don't be suprised if you find yourself staring out of a strangers photograph who's sitting next to you in the bus. It's only because you are famous!

gaming waming

the best video game you could play,
what you need?
a busy cross-road junction where atleast 5 roads meet..
2 strong glasses of long-island ice tea..
the traffic lights control..
a bloody sense of humour..

and, you are good to go!

game ends, when you create an unmanageable mess or you have to run to save your behind.. which ever happens first..

warning: this game was designed keeping in mind the mellowed down, traffic rules following bengaluru jantha..
tips if you want to move your gaming to other locations,
hyderabad- the video game would have a mind of it's own and you might then have to play it standing on a hill-top.
bihar- you might want to be well armed and shielded and at various points of time, it may seem like the video game is attacking you

best of luck, please do not try to get in touch with us in case of concerns, we have all migrated to mars..

i walk like a car..

with all the driving i do in the busy Bangalore roads .. constantly looking at one-ways .. constantly driving in big loops just to reach a spot which is a few feet away .. constantly dodging other vehicles and ignoring blaring horns ..
and always wondering if my car would fit into this small gap or that big crack..

i sometimes do hit upon a few chances when i get to walk the walk .. and when this happens, i find myself dutifully following one ways and laboriously walking through only those lanes where i would fit in if i was a car..
bah! time to migrate to a country side i suppose...

6 friends on a trip to Goa ...

Day 1:
Sumptuous Goan lunch
Walk along Calangut beach
A good sleep
A night at Royale Casino, unlimited food and drinks

Day 2:
Drive to Arambhol in a Zen Estillo
Time spent by the waves and the sand
The good ol' Hooka in a beaten beach shack
Goan lunch with some rock music
Water sports in Calungute beach (the incomplete banana ride and some para gliding)
All dressed up for dinner at Cape Town Cafe topped with awesome port wine
Dance all night in Titos
Drive to beaches which are open over night with the sound of your brawling friend's at the background
Baga at 2 am, with a rug underneath, stars overhead, sound of the waves, and your friends lying close around

Day 3:
Drive to Anjuna with 6 whole people cramped in a tiny little Zen Estillo
More driving to Querim with a lot of shifting at the back seat to avoid 'heat pores'
Some Goan beach dance choreography and videography
Peaceful sleep on the benches with strong breeze, the smell of oranges and ready-made maggi
Subway and King's beer for lunch
The loooong drive to the airport with some awesome entertainment

just a thought...

When people are talking about months in a year, ever wondered how they usually go Jan, Feb but when it comes to the other long named months, they never say Dec or Nov or Oct, it's always December November October etc..

After some serious much-required thought, the only probable reason I could think of was that 'January' and 'February' are more tongue twisting than the fellow months.. and on further thought it also seems like saying Oct, Nov is more tongue twisting than using their actual names..

Phew! ..
