is it just me?

hysteria !!!
the way the guitar starts at this song always gets me going on.
def leppard.

didnt mean to hurt you
didnt mean to steal your smiles
wish i could never have
tread those forbidden miles

not those tears again
not those silent sniffles
i have wronged a lot
caused u many a troubles

some day ill sing a song for you honey.
some day ill get it right
just the way you always wanted
just the way i thought i might

i know we would be happy
i know the kids we used to be
holding hands and smiling away
making sense to just you n me

your eyes theyd shine
your eyes they d have in sight
without saying a word
this once ill get it right

So....

life has come to a standstill
with sorrow and fear my heart fills
im no sinner im no traitor
yet why do i have to suffer

you have been my savior
my messiah my creator
for me, you said was the world
for me, the flowers the trees and the birds

the sight you now show me
just wont let me be
a believer a worshipper
of you and your ardor

the flowers the trees and the birds
just like me are one of your herd
i see they are your followers
and i am a mere worshipper

you now have my life to lead
the fingers to hold, a child needs
with new hope i look up
and the tears in my eyes dry up.

Chandrakant sir:

Was our drawing teacher. He used to give us a box of crayons every year. We were expected to draw things according to the themes that he would put and he would grade our sheets on a 10 scale and the annual marks consisted of scoring above 90 being an A grade. He never knew I was a student in the class. I was very silent in his class. Once he asked me to tell him a joke. That day I was hit by a scale and made to kneel down for not telling a joke in class.

Bhavesh Dave:
One more of our guys. He had a fish tank at his place. He would be describing about the fishes every day. One fine day his fish decide to reproduce. He explains the imaginary act of Piscean copulation by actually showing two of his hands as his fish and showed us how the hands were one on the other like the animals on discovery. I went hysteric and gave out a big laugh. “Yes you four boys! Didn’t I say Pin drop Silence. Come here” “Yes you, You laughed the loudest. Tell me what the joke was else Ill punish you”

St Johns

Mavis Miss:
Stone faced, never an expression on it, tall person with a lean structure. Was my teacher for Social Sciences. Once said I was the most disciplined student in class (read on before you start laughing). Once she also called my friend Sunny Deol of Darr fame. She took me to the staffroom and introduced me to all the teachers as one of the good students in class (once in a lifetime event for me). In two years though, the giant spoke one more time, Chaubal I had thought you were a nice student but you have disappointed me and punished me to kneel down with a friend.

Satpal Singh:
One of my pals in school; best known for his black choti, was often teased by Amit Abrol as “the black Himalayas”. Very cool guy was part of a lot of my jokes in school. Very short tempered when it came to using his things. Had a fight with me once before geography class. He was overpowering me so I attacked at what I thought was his weak point. As the teacher entered she found two students one with his eyes red and trying to tie his long loose hair with his black cloth and the other who was with his shirt tucked out and red marks all over his hands. “Satpal do you think you are sunny deol from the movie darr?” “Chaubal I had thought you were a nice student but you have disappointed me kneel down at the door.”

Doug Kemp .. always stares into my computer when he walks by my cabin.
He walks by my cabin hazar times a day.
Doug Kemp despises me.

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 ....
