Anybody who first spots a post …

The Alphabet of Manliness is a recent book written by a humor writer which is currently creating waves in the literary circles. I say humor writer with a lot of pride because like me he also maintains a funny/satire website titled ‘The Best Page In The Universe’.
Unfortunately, he hates Blogs and this is how he describes them. Funny to read. Try out his website after you finish reading stuff that’s displayed here.

When I was with Indian Express, I didn’t find their office toilets great. They were very average.
After two years with IE, I tagged on to my Indian Express Sports Editor Anand Philar and World Billiards Champion Geet Sethi and joined their start-up kheladi.com in Chennai. Since we worked out of a house the two toilets were good enough. Just that when I got up from my seat, the whole office (five young strapping men) knew that I was going to the loo.

This was snapped while filling up the car before we climbed up the hill. Wonder why it says ‘you pay more in the hills’.

Check out the tea’s name - Nonsuch. When I asked the tea shop owner he said: “Thats because there is ‘no other such’ tea in the World.”

Thats Rekha and I with our hosts in Mettupalayam - my uncle and aunt.

This board was spotted at the Nonsuch tea shop. It was a difficult choice.

Al Qaeda attacks Batman’s Gotham city, which is then rescued by the caped crusader. Here is a conversation Batman and Osama had in the Batmobile, after the latter was arrested.

Having failed to find anything funny in appraisals, Ouchmytoe decided to borrow from the internet and come up with an interesting piece.
I had my appraisals a few days back. Am glad I had read this article in The Hindu way back in 2004, for I was able to maintain my cool. As a result, I didn’t put in my papers the same day.
Surprising isn’t it, the newspapers never write on how to deal with good appraisals. But then, do good appraisals exist? Or are they like the UFOs?

Our Ooty trip was great. Let’s take one hair-pin bend at a time.
We reached Metupalayam on Saturday morning (29th April). As the train rolled into the station and I got down with the luggage…I had a feeling I had left behind something. I get this feeling often. Most of the time it is something not so important. But this time around, I am glad I turned back and went inside the AS2 coach – Rekha was sleeping on her upper berth like an angel.
When I told this to my uncle …
