Every so often, I like to go to the window, look up, and smile for a satellite picture.: March 2006

If I were a vampire bat, my fav room , would definitely have been the attic (of course in a ladies hostel) . But as I am not (yet) the black blind flying mammal , my current fav room would be the loo, especially now, as I am suffering from the after affects of gastroenteritis. I visited the local doctor who listened to my ramblings and poked the thermometer into one of the “ unspeakable places “(cough cough I meant my mouth) and started interrogating me :What did you eat last night ? Roadside paani puri ? Nimbu Paani , cane juice with lots of ice ? Chicken Biryani at the local dhabha ? All I could do was make guttural sounds, I was more worried about the mercury in the thermo.It was shooting up, up and away .When he touched my abdomen ( not so gently ) I almost kicked him. But the next question was worth the pain “So, are you a student ? “ (hehe , i wanted to give him a lecture on how we are all "students of life".....but you can't give a speech when you have gastro****). I gave a whoop of joy, when he later confirmed that it was not cholera ( Thank god !! ) { eew weird sentence}. Today at the cafeteria, while I was enjoying ( ok ok pretending to enjoy) “curd rice “ without spicy mango pickle (sigh !) , a colleague caught me eying his plate of palav ,bonda ,chutney,rice and sambhar , I was (not so) politely asked to move to an adjacent table .It seems they didn’t like the way I was staring at them. Grrr people can be so cruel … Time Time ki baath hai …time time .

War does not determine who is right - only who is left. ~Bertrand Russell

You want to know more about this war epic check it out here . 176 min : Cool film thanks Kirthi and it has subtitles in 16 languages !! I liked the small tiny winy part played by Robert Redford. He looked dashing. Did you know that this movie won 13 Oscars. In particular the umbrella wielding Major Harry Carlyle was amusing. When Anthony Hopkins enquires as to why he always carries the umbrella ,the answer that he gets is "Firstly I never seem to remember the damn password (umbrella) and secondly I want to show the Germans that I am an Englishman." and then he(cough cough) dies. :) +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Here I am typing this post and a colleague comes over and smears me with Holi.No it’s not this act of licentiousness that irks me , but the fact that I am now looking like a *$%#& Polynesian Parrot !! For the love of GOD I am an OWL not a parrot . Hoot Hoot !!
