 Muse : You want to write a blog post on happiness?Wouldnt it be better to write a book on it with the title " 376 ways to be happy" and appear on talkshows and promote it, and try to make a million? After all everyone wants to be happy. Self : Maybe I dont want to be happy Muse : Huh I know you are on the crazier side, but surely everyone wants to be happy Self : Well there is a difference between satisfaction and happiness. For eg, if my home gets water (which can be considered a luxury in India) I am merely satisified, but if the water supply is cut off for a day, I become unhappy and grumble. Similarly when Self : an excerpt from an article I read in Muse : Ha Ha so you do want to be happy and blissful Self : Well its something like wanting the butterfly, the moment you try to catch it, it flies away. Act indifferent and it comes to you. Muse : Hmmm if happiness is a butterfly, what is sorrow, a mosquito :D Self : Maybe a caterpillar :) Are you an F1 fan? Sunday, 19 June 2005
Dont watch Anniyan if 1.You are going to watch it on pirated CDs Read somewhere on the effect of the play Harichandra (The king who refused to utter a lie inspite of hardships) on Gandhi when he was young. Can a movie make a difference or will it be a hit at the box office without its message hitting your heart? The choice is yours. PS : I am still enjoying my vacation and will be back during the 2nd week of July Can’t have enough of SRK? Sunday, 15 May 2005
A trip, for me. Means shopping and packing and no time for the zillions (ok its just 19) posts on my mind which I couldnt post. Hmmm perhaps I better a write a reminder to write a post on Time Management. Well it means a break for you too:) But please please do come and check this blog, during the 2nd week of July If you think you are likely to forget and that in this vast cosmos of blog world I am pretty insignificant, and highly unlikely for you to remember the dates, well leave a note, I will hunt you wherever you blog and pester you to read my blogs:) But since I have a contract with few HR Vice Presidents (they were managers but after torturing oops exposing their employees to my blogs, to prevent net surfing, they have been promoted to Vice Presidents), and cant shut down the blog, I am leaving the links to some of my favourite posts. Please read them one at a time. Dont forget to read the Health Warning mentioned in the blog description.

Today had been busy giving suggestions to my friend wcm who wanted some work related suggestions. Thought I would share few of my suggestions with other bloggers. If you are fired dont worry, can help with your covering letter for another job application too. Thursday, 5 May 2005
A conversation between Mr.C & Aargh Aargh : "Imagine if a thief stole some money from your house, brutally assaulted you in the process and got caught and just before being sentenced by the judge, files an application, saying will work for you as your security, if necessary with reduced salaray, and the judge, delays the sentence and summons you for a reply, what will you say?" Mr.C : "What nonsense! Of course I will say no. And why on earth will a judge think I will agree to the thief's offer?" Aargh : "Well who knows, if it can happen for a rapist, why not for a thief. And it has happened before, when the victim has married the rapist, and can happen again. Wish the girl, and her family, will be sensible like you Mr.C" Saturday, 30 April 2005

Back at the office after arguing against the suspension, based on this heard Mr.C say women who wear scanty clothes are asking for "it", as he opened his tiffin box during lunchtime. I quickly walked over to him and grabbed some of the contents of his tiffin box in my hand and as he opened his mouth to protest, stuffed it in his mouth. And calmly returned to my seat. In a rage, he ran over to the sink, spat the contents out and demanded an explanation from me. I replied sweetly "Why Mr.C, the contents of the tiffin box were in front of you, you were probably in your mind asking for it. Why bother if its hot or if you enjoy only if you are feeded lovingly by someone you like. If you cant tolerate even a mouthful of, food you like, made by a person you like, at a time when you want to eat, and chew it, what makes you so sure of what women want in their vagina "
Now to deal with irritated folks at my office, I am busy writing to political parties and the media, that if people have their food in front of them, they are asking for it to be stuffed in their mouth, never mind when or by whom. Any support? Tuesday, 26 April 2005
The lady in the corner, has become a Monday Morning Mystery. Today to work, she wore a black purdah, without a headscarf and became the talk of the office.Unable to resist, I walk over to her cubicle Aargh : "Are you feeling cold?" Corner Lady (henceforth CL),with a smile : "No" and gets back to work. Aargh : "You are err wearing a purdah" CL : Nods without looking at me. Aargh : "Well I remember reading some years back that a woman in Kashmir was beheaded because she was not wearing a purdah, I think." Again nods without looking at me, Aargh : "Errr its yours?" CL : "Neighbour" Aargh persistently : "But isnt headscarf also important?" Read More... Saturday, 23 April 2005
Aaaargh will there be no end to the bias! http://www.arabnews.com/?page=1?ion=0&article=48527&d=18&m=7&y=2004
(I think that comes to more than 210 billion Rupees. And alcohol is prohibitied, so rules out drunken driving too!) Well thumbs up to the woman there who said, if you wont let me drive, I will fly and became a pilot :) And so its not that just women are bad drivers. And is it so tough for some to accept women as humans? Families suffer after an accident. Men and Women both get affected. Its tragic and changes life and lifestyles. Whats important is road safety and not winning ego trips. Women can drive, if you think to the contrary, perhaps its just because you want to take her for a ride? PS : For every opinion, its not possible to collect the most reliable data and then base the opinion. Sometimes many go by personal experiences. Just because a blogger here (male or female), thinks women are bad drivers, doesnt make women, bad drivers nor does it perhaps make, those who hold that opinion MCPs. After all, if from tommorrow, if majority of the bad drivers I meet, wear denim jackets, I would be wary about drivers who wear denim jackets and perhaps might say there could be a scientific reason for this, even if there is a country where denim jackets are banned and even if that country has one of the highest accident rates in the world :D But would I be justified in saying those who wear denim jackets should be banned from driving, without any study, scientific evidence etc?

 So India lost an oneday cricket series to Pakistan. How terrible na.. What could be worse? How about when you dont have a country to cheer? Of course in our case, at the moment, it would be, no team to curse:) I read My Kind of Exile by Tenzin Tsundue, which won the Outlook Picador Contest in 2001. Perhaps you had read it then, but then guess its better late than never for me. If you havent read do read it. Or should Tenzin Tsundue bomb or kidnap innocents, to get attention? The bud was about to blossom, to its glory But just before it could spread the petals and enjoy the spring It had to be uprooted . And so the bud, still waits, to bloom, in a land of its own. |
