Trust Me , I am a Liar

I saw this T-shirt punch line and somehow remember it after 2 hrs.
Kahaan dekha - ghar ka khaana mein
kab dekha -- lunch time..
kisne pehna tha-- hoga koi IT industry ka maara
kyon dekha -- saamne baith gaya tha..bhagaa nahi sakta tha..mujhe bhi khaana tha
kaise dekha--abhi aankehin thik hain..unhi se dekh liya

Now the main theme after I have somehow done my SWOT on this :)

All these silly quotations reminds me of the questions that are asked by IT junta companies to check someone's reasoning ability.Maybe that's the reason these geeks think so much into what they wear.

Kaash meri ability kam hoti..aise post ke baare mein sochta bhi nahi..

Dussehra days !!!

A festival which is most nostalgic to me other than any is the magic Dussehra days...
Let me try to capture it in chronological order :-
* Came to know of Dussehra through the mega hit TV serial of the 80s - Ramayana
* So that meant going to watch the Durga Puja celebrations and Ravana's effigy bonfire ,cracker works at Central School..Shaktinagar..most of the time.
*Pehli baar gas wala balloon yehi se liya tha (hmmm...remember so much)
*Have never been lucky to watch a Ram leela for a long time in person
*We used to have many half yearly exams in school ending by Dussehra.So this was a big break after the slog overs :).College mein to koi exam ..exam lagta hi nahi tha...it was more of funtime.
*Navaratri concept---came very late..but still if u r getting delicious food to eat and respected so much..that's the best part of it
*Went to Patna once at Durga Puja time.Person from a small town going to a city.Was the same with me.Patna delighted with so many kind of pratimas ..from the regular ones..to a maakhan ki pratimaa (that was kept in AC so that it didn't melt) ,tel ki pratima (strong in concept) ,sabun ki pratima,mom ki pratima (ab koi cheez to rehne do )
*Miss.... Benaares days and durga puja there..Ramnagar ki ramleela is world famous..(sab fame ki peeche hi hain)
*Went to my native village once.Again got awed by the small town guy going to ur village.Was a great experience to see my roots and the rituals.
*Went to Nepal once,new country ,new customs there..some of which might not be heard of.
*Tanda ramleela..typical of UP style ones and the way ravana's effigy is burnt with the help of basket ball stand's support(the jugaad)
*Sultanpur days..gr8 days..ghar jaane ki jaldi after midsems
*Mysore days..watt lagi thi...generic compre pass karni thi
*Bangalore days..yahaan to koi festival josh se manaate hi nahi hain..ajeeb shahar hai..its more on style and theme than anything...

But still I am happy, for the Good always wins ...

The Attitude

Lots of people have lots of things to say on your attitude.
Your attitude towards thing was correct/wrong.
One thing that we have noticed recently is the attitude of Indian Cricket team and its Attitude man --Sreesanth...
Music Industry and its attitude man---Himesh
Indian Politics already has a PM with attitude - Manmohan...sorry ..if it never appeared to anyone :)
But he really had guts to bring liberalization in 91 and all that was a real attitude stuff those days.

Well positive attitude to anything does a great deal of good than having no reaction or a smaller tinge of negativism.
But the attitude that I am trying to light up here is more in terms of confidence than anything...Be confident with your views and forget the rest...

Now thats a no nonsense attitude.
