The Diligent Vigilante...

This has been a week of in-principle approvals...sponsors, speakers, jury...though happy on many fronts...there have been certain unavoidable unfortunate incidents...

The most important of which being, Divya Bhadani our eternal romantic, has stopped updating his status message, rumours of him stalking under aged boys on Orkut couldn’t be verified at the time of writing this article.

Hostel-1 has been complaining about air pollution in Mumbai of late, though the VP hasn’t summoned cordcom to call for a batch meet yet, initial investigation pin points the source at Room No-123. On this note i would like to congratulate my friend Sanchit Chandna on his new book, “My tryst with Constipation: A work around with the water problems In Vogue”

Finally Mastishk, our online gaming partner, has shown signs of existence. They have launched their new blog with their old promise, heres wishing them all the glory, pagehits & revenue. The reasons why Mr.Nilekani chose this team to field test his UID project are still unknown. We never asked, “Who all are in Mastishk?”...did we?

At this point i must say, i couldn’t stop myself from posting the pic above, not after the gentlemen responsible said, “Hey guys, round of applause for my wife like!” I always wondered why it is always the lady with the gong make-up who actually speaks most sense. Not that there weren’t others, one of whom actually was candid enough to call this place National Institute for Torturing Innocent Engineers! Among the other things worth remembering from that function... EWYLS (Earn While You Learn Scheme) for assisting profs in consulting assignments & DEWYLS (Double the Earnings While You Learn Scheme) for investing the money earned from consulting into the stock markets.

Now how about this...NICE <->NaEs (Nayani/Esha)...let’s be nice to people...Let’s nice our NPA’s... (PMG ROTFL! \m/)

I have never had the privilege of being niced by my revered peers (no guarantees on behind the back activities!) but i guess destiny had planned it upstairs for me. In between the haze and black out that happens regularly in my constant endeavour to absorb the most irrational reasoning of all time, i do have the privilege of hearing phrases like, “You have no manners...don’t you have any Manners?”; “You are a law unto yourself!”; “how do you know him...do you know him?...you would invite the Prime Minister also!”; “Why would he come...?...he is too high profile!”; “so you want to make this a forum for low profile, retired people!”

And in between all this is the unavoidable and much needed fun at the perimeter of my bull ring...

Mr.Anand: “Dude, i really wanna get my PPO man!”

Mr.Konduri: “Ah dude, girlfriend, Marriage...”

Mr.Anand: “Sandy!...is that all you can think of?”

Mr.Konduri: “dude...children also...”

Mr.Anand: “WTF...you must be ready with their names!”

Mr.Konduri: “Yes dude...’Kickass’ Konduri & ‘Fellow’ Konduri!”

And lastly, Vasanth the most sober and prolly the nicest guy in PMG, heres congratulating him and his Dravidian roots...what 4 rounds of Johnny Walker couldn’t, one stale masala dosa at maddu mess could. I seriously envy his growing TRP among the junior batch! (Again PMG only..."Hail Hitler!" :P)

P.S: Can i get that best online Multimedia content award for my tshirt design!

Cheers!~
