It has been a long time since my last "bakar" mail and much of water has
flown thru New Orleans. I always wanted to visit that place...around 10 hrs drive
from here, but now woh sapna hee rah gaya. Other than its music, delicious Cajun recipes
it had a great night-life. So next time to experience Mardi-Gras need to go to Brazil..
which does not seem feasible in near future!
Anyway: Lets start with a "home made" joke.
Joke BEGINS:
Santa Ka Beta (Bantey Kee Beti sey): Yaar papa ko Parkinson Desease ho gaya
Bantey kee Beti(in a shocked mode): Oh my Rabba! Kaisey hua, kab pata chala.
Santa Ka Beta : Abhi last few weeks sey. Hamesha bhool jatey hai ki Gaddee kahan "park" kee thee
Joke ENDS;
What else....Well here it is..Recently switched to tagless v-shirts (wahee baniyan jiskey picchey
tag nahee hota hai). Though I was two years behind in switching...as it was launched long time back..
but you all know, baniyan, briefs , Mojey and Wine jitney purano ho...utna jyada maja ata hai.
I remebered when these guys launched "tagless" banyan..there were so many tv print ads and ho-hulla
..and it seemed for a while that mankind has finally done a great invention. After all what is the
practical use of those tags in behind, that other than it is a "possible "source of irritation in your neck.
That seems physically possible, but somehow in my 19272 times experience of vesting and divesting a
"banyan" I hardly felt its "irritancy". (For the "curious mathematical minds" the number 19272 is derived
from 2x365x30x0.88)
And for just "curious but unfortunately not-so-hoshiyaar" these numbers signify one who is wearing
and taking out (ie the first term 2), for last 30 years or so (30x365), but in certain circumstances same
banyan more than a day (statistical guess of that happening 12 out of 100 days).
But in the other hand guess what happens now with these tagless banyans.
scenario "a": With no tag it sometimes become difficult to find the front and rear of the vest. previously
with tag, you can always know what is the back side.
scenario "b": When you have many relatives/family members around, the tags used to help in sorting that
sona-95 is yours, Dora-90 belongs to Chotu, Priya-95 is Taujee and Rupa-90 is Ramu Kaka.
After all they all look Same Yellowish White!
Switching track to US Flag Hoisting Code: I am not sure how many of you have noticed it ...but I have seen it
innumerable times. That there seems NO such code I will say. Had seen it during Tsunami, Reagan's death and now
the Katrina. It seems in all the buildings they do it half mast and undo it as per their own will. Right now
I can see the building opposite us is FULL-MAST whereas Ours is as HALF-MAST. Did google on it.
and US has a flag-code but seems no one takes it seriously. Want to see what Uma Bharti feels about it
Talking about some new web sites/feature: have you tried my web from yahoo. It is a great stuff...no need
to create bookmarks which are PC dependent. Other than bookmarking it also stores the pages. So nice way of book-keeping
all your important online stuffs at one place..and surprisingly Google has nothing like that yet, i am sure
they are working something more "fiery" that that. Also tried google talk (IM with voice enabled)
recently. Excellent quality. but keep in mind it only runs with XP.
Moving to movies.: Well nothing to say much. Watched Paheli..is good. KKHH was desi american pie or
naked gun sort of. Liked it anyway.
Conspiracy Theory????
Remember "Woh mere sapno ka saudagar" from DHKMN but many were in
impression that it is title song of "Saudagar" as both movies were released close to each other...History repeats
itself with "paheli --kaisee hai yeh paheli" song. Found out this is from Parineeta and not Paheli. Again both
were released close to each other. Can it be some conspiracy, where the other team finds out the competitor's
title and adds a similar song in their portfolio...Hmm...something to think about!
Chalo bahut ho gaya...Ending it with :
Recently I got a mail redirected from Garland post office which was addressed to
Industrial Gangopadhyay.
So "industrial" now khuda haafiz kahta hai!
Have a Nice Weekend but dont n-joy 2 much remembering what happened 4 years ago!
