Finally... I'm back! It feels so good to be here again... like an e-home for me, this! So, I've made it here, but, as usual, I'm not sure what I'll be writing on... Let's see...
The Election Commission, recently, barred Sanjay Dutt from contesting the 2009 Lok Sabha elections, thanks to his illustrious career in criminology. He is sharing his knowledge over and over and over (oops... toppled) again. Most of us thought Munnabhai might work his magic in the real life too, but then, come to think of it, he doesn’t even know whose photo we have on our currency notes. He needs a Circuit for that! Duh! Time for us to pursue rethinkology!
Talking about rethinkology, I think I should get married. Mmm-hmmm! That probably is the last ditch effort and the trump card too that India can use to stop Pakistan. Though we’ve gotten rid of our conventional practices to quite an extent, boys my age still tie the knot or at least think about it (I'm not trying to hint at their desperation). We don’t get our right girl in a matter of 2 days, you know, like we do in the west (or should I say Wild Wild West!)… so responsible parents start looking for potential bahu contenders pretty early. I wanted to say that I’m ready, yes, I’m ready to marry. But I’m only ready to marry either Mr. Zardari’s or Mr. Gilani’s daughter (if any). Yeah, I'll marry her and ask for dowry. The dowry would be "World Peace”. Well thought of, nay! No… No, no, no… these aren’t inflammatory statements made to excite communal hatred. Please don't chargesheet me. No NSA please!
Mahi and Bhajji have also been under fire for missing the Padma Shri awards. "National awards yaaa... how can they miss it!!!". Hue and cry, clamour of the crowd, booo-hoooo-hoooo, maarroooo maarooo... bhishooom dhishooom! Arre yaar... the awards were scheduled a couple of days before the IPL (I Prefer Lucre)... practise kaun karega! Perform nahi karenge toh joote maroge. The media says that they were shooting ads... ask them, the media, if our heroes had committed the ad people before the dates of Padma were announced. If yes, howzzat for commitment!!! And have you ever asked the award itself, how does it feel? Huh? I spoke to the two Padmas after the ceremony how they were feeling on retaining their freedom, one of them (I couldn't recognise who) said, "We're very happy to get to stay back. There are a few others of my family here who met the same fate. So I, my other sisters and my cousins are planning a celebration, maybe a picnic, this weekend."
And then, in the same ceremony, you had Mr. Action Kumar being rewarded with one of those Padmas for two big achievements - 1). getting unhooked, like never before, on national television by his wife, who had a twinkle in her eye when she did that... I don't exactly remember the denim brand but I suppose it was Lewives (more like giving it all to your wives). 2). For being F.I.R.ed for '1'. Mahi and Bhajji maybe didn't expect the awards and were probably shooting an 'unzipping' act.
And finally... a friend is going away. I haven't known her for so long or so much to feel this sad, but now I know that you don't really need to know someone for so long or so much to feel this way. If there is one thing that I want to do right this moment, it is to not let her go. It's 0210 hours on Tuesday morning and I could drive down all the way, 15 kms to her college, rob her bags and run away before anyone could even yawn. She's being mean, very mean. How can she just... go away! Just like that!!! I uhh...
I've had enough!
Goodnight!
