Spell Check: The Scavangers

Hi

Thanks a tonne(we follow the metric system here)for your en devour the other day.

My peace of mind is still pivoted on a few factors as below:

1. The stuff in the Pooja Room that Dad has packed: I would feel much better if it is properly stuffed in the new house.

2. Blast the watches if he can find them... I will tell him to deliver to you

3. The other stuff in the new house: 2VT's dry cleaned Sarees which were rudely wrapped in old bedsheets, Our bedding etc., my Suits(O Gaud!) which might get crumpled etc. and all other unpacked objects(Burp!)

If these could be stacked away properly and not be eaten by moths and other objects of biological (entomological actually) interests, it would do wonders to my insomnia.

OK Ree lax would ya! I don't need you to do the above... Just remind Dad of the above with as much detailing if not more.

I hope I am not being too demanding, but my heart bleeds for material possesions, you know.

Love

I Have Arrived !

Hiiiii!!!!!

Its finally hit me- and I am pretty excited. I guess for a sucker like me its quite something.

Anyway I went for my compulsory medical test and read a lot of policies specific to the Gulf after interacting with my Pa(c)kistani Man(a)ger. Its a small office and the the staff is very friendly and accommodating(Fart!). I'm kinda liking it but its too early to say...or swoon.

Come to think of it, Lasagna and Meat Balls for lunch provided by the company is not such a bad deal after all.

Now the serious stuff:

1. There is a packed attache' case about 8 kg with Dad. you have to Fedex it-Now

2. Dad will also give you two small boxes which contain our watches which we forgot. Remember... "The Man Who Hated Time" from Section 9C? Accommodate them within the above: I know that you are pretty good at accomodating your time.

3. The most difficult part: In the Puja room we threw off most of the excess baggage (maybe about 5 kg).

Can you tell me how I can make Dad :

a)collect it from the floor

b)pack the same into the two bags lying nearby

c)and stack it in the new house???

Life is beautiful I feel if you start letting go...Yeah its difficult but possible.

भगवन जब देता है तो छप्पर फाड़ के देता है

Amazing isn't it?

Life is taking a turnaround and everything is falling into place. God Almighty has been so gracious that I have been able to achieve much. The thing that I must not forget now are:

1. Not to forget to thank Him for what all he has done and keep all promises unto Him and his men.

2. Never to be arrogant about anything bestowed upon me as it is not my merit but His Eternal Grace.

I hope life will eventually change for the better.

I was speaking to 2VT(My Best Half) the other day and we agreed how life changes immediately after just a news !!!!

Any way I regard myself as fortunate or lucky to end up so well.

Please God, let this last!

May it not be a dream

Lust kills you

Your sin has been measured. You have committed many sins, but Lust is the mortal sin that has done you in. Just below, discover your full sinful breakdown and learn what it is about you that condemns you to hell.

Greed: Medium
Gluttony: Medium
Wrath: Very Low
Sloth: Low
Envy: Medium
Lust: High
Pride: Medium

See what happened when I took that quiz.

I was not shocked but was definitely surprised. I was not much of a Gutsy-Lusty type till now!
Any way the affair with sins started when I was trying to rationalise another incident at my God-forsaken office when I came across this Internet crazy site.

Any way it has taught me to be patient and more dilligent and God will take care of the rest.
Secertly I want to stab the guy in the bosom and wring his neck till he dies writhing in pain lying in his pool of blood. Maybe a bazooka will be more handy for I know his postal address and location. Pinning him to the wall is another solution though it would not be so painful hence not so much of redemption coming through.

I think a solution lies in the subsidence of my life and gradual healing as this is only going to increase the fervour of my frustration(in any case my wife calls this my frustration coloumn and I feel like a Frustrated Bastard!)

Maybe forgiveness after all has its virtues-Buddhism, Here I come

Abysmally Low Salary

How can one keep on working in the same office when others with less experience are earning more or as much as they are?

The first feeling is that of being cheated and duped. In a very annoying manner the anger is diverted to the one who earns more rather than the one who has actually put you in the scenario. Do I remember The Dilbert Principle?

You go back to office and the workstation is still warming up. The air around you seems to be filled with ether and the familiar voices resound in your ears, albeit getting drowned somewhere in between. I think its something to do with humility and a pie.

The tones change connotation and a nostalgia of earlier conversations fills up your eternal space.
"So that's what he meant by saying that". You wish you were the proverbial Sita of Ramayana on whose instructions the earth opened up and down she went into neverland.

Life goes on for we don't subscribe to the supernatural newsletter. Hope transcend towards a similiar advantage. Later, much later, you realise that its only the thought to even that remains on its helm rather the money aspect from where it starts.

Samsung Shit(Everyone's Invited)

I bought a TV which was worse than a Radio-I mean it did not have any images on it's screen. Naturally I got it changed the next day as I was unable to fathom the sense. Yeah That's Samsung for you: Just the introduction
A couple of months later: and not to forget that the Celsius had also increased poignancy--- Not to mention the July Sultry mess common in Delhi, We bought an AC: for precisely the same Reason
Yeah you guessed it right: It was somehow Samsung
We knew the Brand but not that the life of this product will just be eleven days!
Talk of prompt service: the month undertakes on its own to make the temper simmer
But still one week and a rusty replacement machine was too much for me

Ah yes ... I promised the repair supervisors nephew a job in my office
Pat came the AC all polished and clean.
Strange are the ways of the world. Pulling strings has less to do with the guitar ... No?

Rain in the city

Wash me up for I want to be new again

The fresh scent of mud watered is long gone in the sludge, the cool breeze surmounting the realms of
cognizance



The city never sleeps especially on a blanket of water. Hot samosas and other local wares with endless cups steaming tea put the delight to a new dimension. A roadside drizzle Cafe inspects the spoils only to be glad for the heavenly re-incarnation. The mood itself perpetrates to more chilled out as the namesake whether, weather it is an up market coffee shop instead. The morning comes in cool and refreshing for the eyes don't squint to a near relentless sun.

Come to think of it: The Qutb Minor, The Fort that's not so Red , and the Gate not made for us Indians, The Luteyens Zone the walled city and the Nouveaux Riches colonies all seem to gain. Though the waterworks do lead to some fireworks but I feel that OK for a vibrant economy to vibrate at times.

I feel mother Earth needs more of this, let alone Global Warming swarm the looks and likes of the world. A wetter better place to be-my city Delhi revelling in the Rains.
