If you’re new here, you may want to subscribe to my Blog’s RSS Feed. Or my Comment’s RSS Feed. Your funny bone is definitely as big as your femur!My apologies. I was held up with work. Not my fault. Who doesn’t get held up with work. At last count more people get held up due to work than those due to traffic.
I love it when somebody calls out “T.G.I.F” when I enter office. It is a sweet smelling, melodious word which means “Thank God, It is Friday.” I accept, …

Heard about this Chennai guy who recently got caught between a concrete wall and a corporation bus? He lost both his left hand and left leg. According to the latest reports…he is all right!

[This serious article is an attempt by your favorite satirist to turn into a Technological Evangelist. If you hate serious gyan, I would suggest you come back on Monday to read the next post. If you don’t care…go on.]
When you first come to the Internet you come for porn. At least that is what most of my friends say. And I believe them. Google starts out as the search engine helping them find porn. After a while Google and not porn becomes an addiction.
The other day, a friend of mine …

Did you know that the concept of shopping malls came up as early as the 1950s. Did you know that the biggest shopping mall is in Alberta, Canada …a place where I actually have an old …long lost friend called Jaron Rovensky (more on this dude soon). Did you know that some shopping malls being built today have skiing facilities? Did you know that in another ten years, seven of the largest shopping malls in the World will be in China!
We all live a consumerist life. We buy things not …

Kennedi who writes at www.askenni.com has revealed his two wives. He managed to keep it a secret for eight years…but yesterday his 2nd wife read the post and found out the truth.
As I always say, those that cheat…can’t eat. Today Kennedi has been thrown out of the house…and even as I write he is standing before an idli kadai hoping he hadn’t cheated.
Not his fault. Cheating on wives comes naturally to me(n).
Did you know why a “mistress” is so called? Because she ‘missed’ becoming the most preferred wife and thus …

Rekha and I have suddenly become interested in babies. Perhaps, we don’t make enough noise at home…I stick to my Newsweek and she to her Star Dust. Maybe, we need somebody to trouble the neighbors living downstairs…by dropping the TV remote or the rattle or the plastic car.
I remember, Rekha trying to sell me the idea sometime back. Being a great haggler, she almost got me…till the time I stood up for my rights and said, “hey, we just got married. Let us at least go for a second honeymoon …

Let us accept it. Not all interviews are with the intension of hiring. How many times have we seen Jeetendra or Shahi Kapoor or Shammi Kapoor sitting inside the Manager’s cabin…the phone rings…the manager picks it up…keeps on saying “Yes sir”…turns to the protagonist and says, “I was about to give you the job, but that was a recommendation from a higher up. I am sorry.”
Sometimes I wonder, if there was such a dearth of jobs in the 70s and 80s…where would we hide our face for the situation that …

Sharad Pawar is the new BCCI President. How refreshing. The democratic country that we are, anybody can be elected to top posts. Just about anybody. Even Sharad Pawar…
Indian cricket has eventually managed to get out of the frying pan and reach the fire. I am not surprised Sharad Pawar is from Mumbai. The filmi-capital provides all the glory/popularity to handsome people and forces the ugly to get into politics.
All politicians are in it because of the power they get on winning…power-hungry would be the word. Thanks to politics, for most …
