Friend 1
(Pre- Hot Consulting Job)
Me: Bye bugger
He: Bye
(Post- Hot Consulting Job)
Me: Bye bugger
He: As much as I would like to talk to you, I need to go for lunch with a friend. I hope I can catch you later.
Me: Huh? ($%@##$#)
Friend 2
(Geek. I have always known him as such. Quoted from the last post.)
Me: 2 Ph. D.s ??
He: Yeah. He didn't time multiplex.
Me: ?? (....)
Friend 3
(Marketing a.k.a. paid to bullshit)
Me and a guy or two: So, how do we get people to join Utsav.
He: Friends, we re-christened IGSA as UTSAV primarily to infuse in it a sense of joy and fun. Please try and understand the name carries everything. Right from our events to Asha briefings make sure "Utsav" comes first. If we can put Utsav first we can levarage its identity and can broaden our scope.
Me: Okk. (So a pumpkin called a rose becomes a rose. If, you can leverage it's identity. And broaden it's scope.)
'Friend' 4
(...)<- preserving my efforts at decency in this public form.
Me: So, we have been friends for so long.
'Friend': Yes, I let you be my friend. It's not like I am going to say 'No no don't be my friend'.
Me:@#$@#@#@$
#@#@#$=Fill in the blanks. Any guesses? Special points for good ones.

Yenjay. Burn the spammers, down with their heads, send them to Siberia. Ok they have internet in hell too!
Oh where is the comment section for the new post?
And about your style of writing:
Well for one it is lucid.
You don't preach to your readers like some Himalayan Sadhu. (unlike SP: did I have to say that!!)
Its more like a conversation with your readers.(unlike mine)
-Kirthi
I took the liberty to paste it in. I deleted a whole bunch of spammer's comments and the comments section got deleted!!
:)
MBAs and their tendency to jargon-ise everything!! :) After a point the jargon becomes a part of normal conversation... sad.. most sad! :)
Me:@#$@#@#@$
#@#@#$ = Fill in the blanks....Any guesses?
Here's my answer.......
Champagne For My Real Friends,
Real Pain For My Sham Friends
HI Ramani,
UTSAV and ASHA; reminds me of the movie "Utsav"; which has one of the few songs Asha's sung with sis Lata...
man kyon bahakaa ree bahakaa ... aadhee raat ko
belaa mahakaa ree mahakaa ... aadhee raat ko
kisane bansee bajaayee ... aadhee raat ko
jisane palakee churaayee ... aadhee raat ko
zaanjar zamake sun zamake ... aadhee raat ko
usako toko naa roko, roko naa toko,toko naa roko
*I
Kk misses the point... the whole Objective is to preach!
Ramani,
Thanx for doing that.
Tell me if I win a trip to the Bora bora islands for answering this: @#$@#@#@$==get outta here.
SP,
Hmm maybe we'll take this offline. Or was I supposed to laugh. Che I never get this fellow's jokes.
SP, you missed the whole point. The point is to comment on my post! :D :D
The point is to comment on my post! :D :D
Yeah Ramani - I can write a whole
Ram Kahani......
[kirthi] Hmm. I try not to preach. But, I would think some of my earlier posts were pretty preachy - rationality and
the think and feel thing. I try to vary it a bit. It depends on my mood. Funny, cynical, philosophical.. the whole range of things.
[ditty] yeah seriusly. but you should meet some techies. what is the worst use of 'download' you can think of??
[intern] yeah seriously. you don't let anyone be your friend. you wan't to be their friend. it's about how much you like that person. not how much that person likes you. the second is admirer (or stalker :D). Wow, thats one interesting piece of trivia.How do you come up with it?? That piece sounds totally lovestruck.
[sp] do continue preaching. and like U2 says 'I will follow'. try to at least.
[kirthi] politely put : get outta here. Actually, I was more looking for an interesting description of that person. Like, I had categorized the previous three - MBA type, consulting, and marketing. What's the third? I couldn't exactly pin down such a person. SP, his pjs are quite famous. He has risked considerable physical injury in the past. He he.
[anon] he he. This is fun.
The whole idea of the post was to observe little interesting things in life. How things become inadvertantly interconnected. A particular change there, would cause a whole lot of changes. At a deeper level - personality - outlook, philosophy etc. Though, the post as such pretty superficial. Not superficial, but isn't making a deeper point.
Ok mister, U have been tagged. Simply because u visit my blog. 55 words. I know u r upto it. So let's have it from u.
Ramani,
should admit I'm impressed that you could make-out the meaning (lovestruck) of that lovely song....
(aadhee raat ko - Lata-Asha; movie Utsav )
as for me, I've not only enjoyed the songs but also have seen the movie .....its directed by Girish Karnad (Karnataka); who is receipient of the Jnanpith award
*I
Why'd you delete that post?
not comfortable having it on..
