Ode to HP

Not about my kambeni..atha pathi thaniya postaren..this post is dedicated to the latest and last installment in the Harry Potter series...Alas! a great series comes to end..for folks who are keen followers i share your grief..for the uninitiated..well there is more to life which you have been missing folks...reading books you love is a magic in itself..that too when the characters are magical themselves...well what to say...i read the first one half heartedly..didnt like the cover picture...i have a hmm..sort of fetish towards book covers...the book should impress me right from cover page..when i saw the "HP n philosophers stone" book..it wasnt much impressive..infact i had to plough through the book..couldnt follow half the things as i guess Rowling had decided to have the book in several parts right from page one of part one..so most of the characters events where placed with a cloud of mystery hanging over each scene..though it aroused a wee bit of curiosity..the very thou...

Review time...

Chak De India.. Makkalay..kandippa paarunga miss panaatheenga...padam romba nalla iruku..for any hockey enthusiast or sports enthusiast its a must watch...enna mari sila caselaam iruku..goli gilli matchnalum India thaan win pananumngara alavuku veri..antha mathiri makkals wud lap it up...surprisingly SRK gives a nice performance..nalla udambu ethi..he gives a creditable performance as the coach..and no romantic duets or heorine for him mind you..no mushy scenes where he can ham his heart out..unlike KANK where he literally irritated everyone with his constant bickering and crying he is more manly in this movie...his role is also a bit new for hindi movies considering a superstar actor donning it..there are certain scenes which are very delicate and could have been judgemental or jingoistic degressing from the core theme..but luckily the movie doesnt and holds its line..the scene where his friend says..its hight time he came out of the guilt and everyone and every sin has a pardon..h...

Dont tell anyone...its a secret..

Dont tell anyone.. How many times have u endured this phrase in ur life..By accepting or agreeing to this one liner, you unknowingly create a barrier, which many a time results in breaking more than one relationship. If you think that people trust you so much, that they share their darkest of secrets only with you, by binding you with this "magical" phrase...think twice fellas..it might so happen that, you may be one of the many bound by this invisible clause. Simplest way to make a mess of a relation is, to tell something to one person and utter this "Dont tell it to anyone"...kekkaravan kenaya iruntha eruma kuda aeroplane oatumaam (ithuku vera definition edhuvum ivlo decenta maatala..therinjavanga purinjavanga manichukunga :) )...i fail to understand the thrill people get in sowing the seeds of secrecy on eveyone..its either that they want to enjoy the pleasure of "revealing" the "news" to everyone themselves or simply to have fun on your accou...

Cyber Sparisangal

Makkas n makkis..me d back with one more story...intha story enna spl..well..its written by my lazy friend who doesnt want to open a blog of his own..chk it out..and as usual..u know wer to thuppify :D Place : cyberbit systems, Dubai. Time : 1540 hrs Kumar was working at a feverish pace. Every ten minutes he was looking at his watch cursing the change request which came at the last moment. Though he was physically in office his mind was already travelling back home. "Ram.. can you test this code fast.." "Sure Sire...you sure seem to be in hurry..getting late for a date or what.." ram added with a wink. Kumar was pacing in front of the monitor as if he is awaiting his first baby...painfully reminding himself that he wasnt actually there when his first kid was born. "Object not found" spat came the error.. Kumar banged the desk in frustration. "Sire..relax..i can pitch in for you..no tension..let me see if i can fix this bug..you carry on.....

Ultimate Farewell mail

Thought of posting on a different topic..but the moment i saw this forward changed my mind...Gem of a disgruntled farewell mail from a guy who seems to have quit JP Morgan just about a week back.... notice the speed at which it has spread across the world :-) total ROTFL... Dear Co-Workers and Managers, As many of you probably know, today is my last day. But before I leave, I wanted to take this opportunity to let you know what a great and distinct pleasure it has been to type "Today is my last day." For nearly as long as I've worked here, I've hoped that I might one day leave this company. And now that this dream has become a reality, please know that I could not have reached this goal without your unending lack of support. Words cannot express my gratitude for the words of gratitude you did not express. I would especially like to thank all of my managers both past and present but with the exception of the wonderful Saroj Hariprashad: in an age where miscommunicati...
