Rants and Rambles: A pat on the head
http://rantsandramble.blogspot.com/2007/05/pat-on-head.html
My diary about everything and nothing. Wednesday, May 16, 2007. A pat on the head. The army marches on its.". Give the guy a tough trek, a long journey, no rest and hardly any sleep. He hardly murmurs a word. But to this concoction you add bad food. Well, now you are asking for trouble! This particular guy sits below my chest and above my hip and in the past he has been responsible for many a dozen pains (most of them fraud, I was an expert at using him as a blatant anti-literacy weapon). The next day, I...

Rants and Rambles: The compliment Trap
http://rantsandramble.blogspot.com/2008/11/compliment-trap.html
My diary about everything and nothing. Tuesday, November 18, 2008. An open letter to the toddlers of the day (Generation X Version N). The best compliments are ones that are overheard. For reasons unknown, the above mentioned thing has never happened to me. I however blame it on my low hearing power rather than on people not complimenting me behind my back. But the above proverb (coined by me… Thank you! But, did it end there? Hmm… why do I get the feeling that you already know the answer? Just imagine t...

My diary about everything and nothing. Sunday, May 25, 2008. To B or not to B. Once in a while, you sit back and look at life. Then you start thinking, hey, I’ve seen it all, nothing can surprise me anymore. And then you get hit over your head by a bloomer. Yep, I am guilty! I was sitting in that chair for some time when yesterday I got what was coming. Did you hear what happened to B” I am somewhat of a fatalist, and god forbid, but the next question that escaped my mouth was “is he dead? I: Hmm… ...

My diary about everything and nothing. Friday, April 25, 2008. On why I am not a monkey. 8220;Thank God it is Friday” was on my lips the moment I left office on February 22 2008. Tony (Toddy) Pullachen had invited us over to his flat for a drinking binge. I had been of the drink for quite some time due to viral fever and other god forsaken ailments, so I took to the invitation like fish to water. Now, I pride myself on being a reasonable man when drunk. But Drunk and Unreasonable? There was this old.

My diary about everything and nothing. Saturday, January 3, 2009. Green Peace and New Year Resolutions. Resolutions, I avoid like the plague, they are not meant for fickle minded people like me who should be put to sea, that their business might be everything and their intent everywhere. But then, the flesh is weak and this year, against my better judgment I have resolved to learn cooking. (Wipe that dumb smile off your face, will you! Scene 1 - Camera rolling. CM: what did you put? You are so dumb amma!
