Choices

Sometimes u come to a point when decisions are hard to make and u have to bite the bullet and move on ..
today was one such day ...
riverdance or basketball

riverdance : broadway show , involves my roomate some of his lady friends, bunch of dancers providing you a visual delight

basketball: desi style, bunch of hyd homies scrmbling with the ball, making tons of noise and not much scoring ..

basketball wins considering the drama that happens u could see it as a blue collar version of any broadway show :)

Generational Artifacts:
every nation has a cultural revolution period.. the US for eg it was the 60's so u see a starrk difference in the people born after the 60's and the people born prior to that.
The people born in the 60's have what i call generational artifacts. These artifacts in most cases appear to be physiological and behavioral. The seem to be undecided on lot of things for no fault of their own. They could very easily become ur friend or your enemy and u would always wonder why. what i am trying to say they display a lot of uncertainity.

so natuarlly i was heading towards india and i think that period is the mid 70's to the mid 80's. i pity the poor souls .. but hey if one thing that can bring them solace is that a recent survey indicated most of the billionaires in the US at present were born in the 60's

How To make "Quick" Money Par II (by popular demand)

Since everyone cannot be MR. Gibson and pull of a cross fight in celluloid i decided to come up with ideas for the folklore.

Slog ur butt to get a PhD degree.
Mke ur dissertation commercially lucrative.
Convince the Venture capitalists that u are thier saviour.
Get a shit load of money funded into your rollabula of an idea.
Hire a bunch of geeks to do the dirty work

POWDER Boarding

Well it doesnt happen that often in AZ when u get 18 inches of snow in three days and they say that its going to be bright and sunny after the storm.
So naturally i was at the mountains in the middle of the week boarding 3 feet of fresh powder for the first time ever in my life.
I was all beat up in 5 runs down the slope .. Powder boarding is no joke, IT wears u down and wears u down quick. The worst thing is u cannot stop on ur way down, or if u ever did then it would be a very long stop for you, and the 3 feet of snow u would have sunk under.

How to make quick money - part I

get bunch of good looking italians, make them speak an unspoken tongue, find some ruins, get some rags, get all the above together and hand them the last 12 hrs of christ verbatim.

strange but possible

If i did move back to india like i always wanted to .. i could easily represent my country in the winter olympics as the lone snowboarder from the nation of a billion hardworking peoples.

All our lives revolve around doing things that take us far far away from the truths we are afraid to face

Conspiracy theory No. 1

This will bea easier for my Indian homies to understand ....
but in short there is a very famous temple in south india in the city of tirupati thats built on a hill and u have to climb a whole bunch of steep steps to reach it.
SO i propose that this was built by a bunch of hiking enthusiasts to get more people to become healthy, fit and increase their cardio rate.
Well the thought never stuck to me untill i was doing a similar steep hike in Az, of course theres no temple on the top of this one, but anyways the thought struck me on my way up as this reminded me of the temple climb back in the home land, and i began to wonder why would anyone build it all the way on top ?
But of course if the hikers who wanted the lazy people of that time to move thier buts had just built a steep trail and asked the folks to hike up in the morning and u will be rewarded with a helathy life no one would have budged. so they had but no option to build a temple of significant importance so that the junta around them would develop a better cardiovascular rate

The crazy random Mr. Hat

Usually i dont tell stories that revolve around my real life but this one needed to be told so here you go

In the Land of the 50 states lives a random cranky persona , for simplicity we will name him Mr. Hat

Me: patience yaar, shit happens all the time

go go: No baap this time it takes the cake ... very rarely do i reach my threshold and i think the record has been broken today

Me: Darn

2 days later

go go: This keeps getting worse baap.. dont know what to do

Me: If u piss too hard on a solid wall the piss is bound to rebound to ur pants

go go: Shit thats it .. !

College of Education SouthAfrican Female Graduate Student : How has culture influenced ur life ?

Moi: Culture today is a retreat zone, much like the movies, its really not mainstream in the orld we live in. We live in a world where we would have to do what it takes to keep our heads over water. we may have some choices in front but for the most part they are not culturally connected.

Her: How do u mean ?

Me: Well if would only eat rice and beans according to your culture u couldnt survive in hells kitchen leave alone madagascar. Or if your culture told u to touch ur elders feet as a sign of respect u would see a shotgun hole in ur brains trying to do that in redneck texas.

Her: You are ridiculously crazy

Me: yeah probably but at least i have the balls to ask you out unlike my culturally bound tight lipped counterparts

man to God : i am not my self of late
God Himself: but of course you are not
man to God: i am not sure whats bothering me
God: Of course you know, u are not sure whether u are in love or u are just plain lonely.
man: how can one be ever sure ?
God: of course u can never be , why do u think i have never had a constant companion !!

Lost In translation

When two people are scared , not horror scared, but in general just scared, all they need to do is give each other a real tight hug cuz love will show them the way.

Black JACk

I finally slept well, infact slept like a baby, i had forgotten how this felt for a long time. the silent new apartment within a no noise neighborhood has done it to me.

Made me conclude that u have to live life as if you were playing black jack at a casino.
The winning rule goes like this : " play at a table till it makes you money the moment u see ur earnings slip away rise immediately and find another table"

For most part people never understand this simple rule and hope to salvage their losses by sticking to thier bases.

I now believe life should be played similary. The world today doesnt have much scope for hope or second chances, u have to be rationally steadfast, sometimes bite the bullet and instantly move on.

I am feeling lonelier than god today

Sauerkraut mania

I hope zee germans dont kill me for my verbatim, byt nevertheless i am taking a fancy for sauerkraut these days, i eat it almost with anything, fries+ S, cheesBurger + S, yogurt + S,
pickled Rice + S ..
then i went up to look why this urge and whats it really made up off ..

From the HEalth Magazine "Sauerkraut, made by fermenting cabbage, is an excellent natural tonic for the digestive organs. It can easily be made at home and is a delicious and healthy accompaniment to meals."

so there it goes i guess i have been craving for some digestive enzymes now that BEER is outta my life.

I am in love with Marion Cotillard
