I never really understood the concept of a left hand drive and a right hand drive vehicle. I especially don’t understand why some countries prefer to drive on the right side of the road, while the rest drive on the left side of the road. I am sure I understand why some people try to drive on the wrong side of the road, but then … Continue reading Right side… Left side… Wrong side…
I was watching a program on the television recently. It was a comedy show. The performer, stood on the stage, smiling and waving at the audience. The very first line he said , ” I don’t know why I am here today.”. I never understood this. If you don’t know why you are there, why not ask the organizers when they come to invite you … Continue reading Why not ask ?

Have you noticed how expensive the purses are getting ? I saw a price tag of $ 13,000 for a woman’s purse. I so pity the husband, who has to buy this purse for his wife.

But then, one day I got a good suggestion from someone. She told me to listen to the ticking of the clock. The ticking used to calm me down.” I always wondered what would have happened … Continue reading Tick tick…
I hate driving. The entire process of “wind blowing through my hair” and “feeling the freedom of open roads” doesn’t really appeal to me. I can just hire a driver and a car to do just those things without the extra effort of driving in dense, bumper to bumper traffic. The whole notion of keep-shifting-gears-from first-to-second-and-back-to-first in a span of 30 seconds and repeat this … Continue reading Drivers…

I don’t know why people are scared of skulls. I mean look at them : They are always smiling. They are basically harmless,in the sense that they can not cause any physical harm themselves;without any external help. They can be used for a lot of things like storage of candles, warding off black magic (not sure if black magic exists, but skulls are mostly used … Continue reading Happy skull

People always ask how fast my interest transfer speed is. I need to answer this once and for all.

Everyone gets jitters when they are getting married. Especially in arranged marriages when traditionally, the bride and groom hardly see each other, although times are changing. I was day dreaming about marriage ,the other day, when a thought struck me. Believe me, it is like getting hit with a frying pan on your head. The thoughts, i meant. Not the marriage. Domestic violence is usually … Continue reading Marriage Jitters and poundings

I have a cousin who is of the age when he plays cricket at any conceivable spot of open ground. This includes main roads, (stopping cars is a very important function in this case) , 10ft x 12ft balconies (increases the patience level, it is said), open grounds ( which are notoriously close to glass buildings) and cemeteries. Now, I gave a lot of though … Continue reading Death spot of cricket
