Dead Grass

Last winter I first observed an actual Fall Season and the on coming of Winter which came pretty quick before Fall could complete its 15 seconds of fame. As a result the whole place was immediately white. There was a sudden transmogrification of green to white. So I asked…

Does Grass fall??? Or does it stay under the snow? Or does it even Fall for that matter!!!
The obvious reason was I saw green then white and as winter waned then green again.

Here in Greenville the green turned into yellow. The Elysian green lawns were now looking like a sparsely vegetated desert, which just faced a desert storm.

Fall is one of the most artistic seasons ever. Leaves turn yellow and shades of red as if the trees were set ablaze.But its sad to see the grass lawns now a sorry yellow.

The mysterious Brown Bear

A couple of days back I had this dream.....
Me .. am a mountaineer and an adventurer, go on this trek with one more person (i couldnt get his face!) we reach this cavernous area on the mountain top, pretty cosy place.
The ground beneath is soft and consists of dried brown shaded leaves and snow. The place we reach is more like a two floored stage with a ramp going from the bottom one to the top. There are the pines and the other mountain top trees around both the levels. The bottom level has a spectacular view of the sky n the valley beneath and the top one looks like a jungle and seems theres still some more place to explore there.
There on the lower area we see these small bear cubs, all black in color. Their mother though was a brown colored bear and she was playing with them. They sensed our presence and 4 pairs of eyes were twinkling at us. we look at em. theres a sort of understanding. and then poof....
all the ground beneath them just starts slipping down into the valley. I guess its because the ground is soft. And next I see is the Brown Bear Ma looking for help at us but before my friend can jump to save them the ground just disappears. My co-adventurer goes in the pursuit of the BROWN BEAR MA. There was something missing, I sense the PA bear. He is up the ramp on behind the trees on the upper stage. I hide myself first out of sensing danger. Then I decide to go n help him Cope with his loss. Next Im going up the ramp and shouting out "Pa Bear"
He comes out and for some reason my knees have got fur on them like the cubs. He sees that and feels I did something to his cubs.
He screams "my cubs!!" and jumps on me. Its like a huge circus tent weighing like about 3000kgs and feeling like fur, falling on you. I just sink in the ground due to the weight. Imagine a rugby player the size of 4 avg men jumping on top of u, when u dont even have the ball with u.
Huh!! Strange!!! scratch my head.I look around ...Darkness surrounds me ... I find myself on the ground. The Fur like Carpet in my mouth.
Understanding that this was just another dream the adventurer decides to hit the loo for a wild one. As Im flushing the john the New Toilet Paper is staring at me from the plastic bag thats just been dragged into the Bathrooom. The Happy face of a Brown Bear Dancing with the Toilet Paper is smiling at me.

Happy Diwali !!

For every sin,I'll have to pay
I've come to work, I've come to play
I think I'll find another way
It's not my time to go

I'm gonna avoid the cliche
I'm gonna suspend my senses
I'm gonna delay my pleasure
I'm gonna close my body now

Gotrix Part 1

If Hrishikesh Mukherjee was to make the Matrix heres how it would be
Morpheus (in patient authoritive tone): “ Follow the white Hockey Ball”
Neo follows the hockey ball to a hockey match with his friends; Morpheus is waiting for him there.
Morpheus sees neo but he cant believe it neo is a muchchmunda.
Morpheus (in patient disgust): “ You are a Muchchmunda you cant be the one, but u look like the one so if you know him, send him to my office tomorrow”
Neo (in sad confused tone): "aww man this sucks!!"
So neo goes to his pal the Amitabh B. (Of course the legend will always be the legend) Amitabh B. gives Neo a fake moustache. Neo then happy goes to Morpheus’ office the next day.
Morpheus to neo (In a patient Disbelief tone): “Neo!!!! The Muchchadd!!
Neo (in a confirming confusion): “Morpheus!”
Morpheus (in patient quizzical tone): “Oh! The one! How did you come here? You look strikingly similar to the person I met at the match?”

Neo (in a bitchy confused tone): “That was my twin brother Mr. Anderson. He is a dumb person. He wastes his time in going to discos and trying to search some white bunny! He doesn’t know the Importance of a Muchch while cracking computer codes.”
to be continued ....

Guess what i want as a new year gift !


Jaisey hoti hai Suraj ki raatein qurbaan
Meri zindagi tere aakhon kay naam

These lines saved me when I had a fight with SM (as she prefers to call herself).

Moral: Music Saves.

Teen Picturey

This weekend got me into watching movies.
Saw an amazing collection of movies
Vastu Shastra: Moral of the story: Peeing on Trees is injurious to health.
Wajah the reason: At the end of the movie we were searching for a Wajah to watch to watch the movie. Gracy singh? Said one. We had a wajah to hit him.
Shukriya: Understood it’s a rip-off but not completely as they put a sidey song instead of a sizzling scene. The shopkeeper said it’s a mystery movie. It really was!!! We were searching for the mystery till the end.

Movies I wasn’t allowed to watch: Bride and Prejudice: Aye yeh Punjab ke gulliyon me sardar log jalebi talte hue English me gana gatey hai yeh humey nahi pat ta!!!


* I just like the concept of day light savings. My sleeping clock is still one hour ahead so i sleep early but my cell alarm goes one hour late!! yay!! 2 extra hours of sleep.
