-: Dreamer's Den! :-

The day, 29th of March , is a day for me that I cannot forget in my lifetime! 4 Years back - 29th March 2003 , I was involved in an accident < Click on the title to read that deadly evening tragedy > where God took away my close friend, in front of my eyes, on my laps! God gave me 2nd innings in my life, to remember this day forever! So, from today morning, rather from yesterday night itself, I am just remembering the chain of events that happened on that deadly sad Saturday :-(( Not that I don't remember this always, this day brings me lots and lots of memories, don't know if this is good or bad :-( Only thing I pray god always is this kind of thing SHOULD NOT happen to anybody, to any mother, to any family, to any lover and to any friend also... Let god give peace to the soul of my dearest friend Vinod babu and his family members! Miss you babu, miss you this entire life! :-(

An article in Economic Times about the cricket mania! < Click on the title of this post > Yesterday, in my previous post , I wrote at the end of having performance related stuff for our blue boyz for more resposibility towards the game and more consistency and..and...here it is, Management agencies are speaking my mind!! :-))

Cricket - The one word that gets huge huge attention in any part of India; Dream, Craze, Madness of millions of people in India and some abroad! But everything got shattered on Friday evening when the 'Blue Boyz ' - Team India lost to Sri Lanka team to exit out of the World Cup :-(( Who knows, May be they felt bored of traveling alone to India later and hence wanted company of Pakistan team (as they were already out of World Cup on Sunday!) to travel with them!! :-))))) In fact , long ago and so so long ago, I WAS an ardent fan of our local cricket and International too. But as Cricket, especially our India team started playing this Gentleman's game more for Commercial purpose than for sporty purpose, my interest in this superb game came down heavily. Even in my friends Circle and in my office (my colleagues), I am the only person who does not follow much of this game! I have always been telling that our blue boyz just want to make money, more from the Commercial A

People passing Queens road circle and Cunningham road definitely know the pain involved, either commuting in 2/4 wheeler or by walk! Here are few simple steps that can bring super smiles to millions of people!! 1. A nice pedestrian sky-walk / foot-over-bridge in the Queen's Circle signal. This bridge can be in a super pentagonal shape, connecting all the 5 roads part of this signal. This signal witnesses lot of pedestrian movement, especially in the peak office hours! 2. Crossing Cunningham road, just from one side to another is a real pain; need to wait sometimes for 5-10minutes to cross this road, moreover this crossing is not that safe as vehicles can speed up any moment once they see free road ahead! So, multiple skywalks will make justice here! 3. To reach Cunningham road from KR Circle, one needs to wait at 2 signals whose time limit is more just for one particular lane! - The Infantry Road signal, one way each amounts to lot of waiting for people on both sides. A super fl

You are waiting in a traffic signal in your 2/4 wheeler. The timer in the signal is still showing 15 seconds and coming down. When the timer approaches 10 seconds, you can hear the vehicles engine rearing to zoom ahead. This is fine, but once the signal turns green, you are honked from behind as if you are not moving even though you got green signal! Another common scenario is of traffic jam. Even though everybody are struck in the jam, some brilliant fellow keeps honking as if everybody are just standing on the road just because they love that road and that spot!!! So idiotic people are...:-) Another scene is of which I daily encounter in my office commute route. I commute on a flyover that is a very nice 2-way 2.7kms long flyover connecting Mysore Road to Townhall circle. Here, people zoom across just like they are flying!! (including me :-D) But the bad and the irritating part is continuos honking by some lack-of-nerves people. I too zoom off when the road is clear ahead of me b

" Time is healer and time moves on...Time don't wait for any one! " - Lines from a song belonging to Colonial Cousins album - 'Krishna nee begane baro' How true right? Time is what we have in this world and every second becomes an history! But not always all times will be good for everyone...Some will be super good, some will be ultra bad, some kind-of-OK and so on :-) As for me, as I have put the heading of this post 'Time is THE Healer', every minute damn thing in this world that you get is based on time! A bit translates to your FATE and LUCK here but for that also to come, TIME should come right! :-)) I have adopted this mantra in my life, not only now, but from when I got to know about this beautiful world, filled with all emotions, joy, sorrow and money, honey!!! For example, one of my long term wish is to travel to US/UK, not even this but to travel round the world and see and enjoy the beauty of this world. But somehow am not getting this oppor

When I wake up daily and start thinking of the day's agenda, first thing that comes to my mind is commutation to my office, which is around 13 kms from home! Not a big deal but the killer roads and traffic of bengalooru makes me go mad! :-( Much has been talked on the infrastructure, which I do not see any kind of improvement, now or in the future! I wonder where our taxes that we pay so honestly every month goes, where all the CESS goes (The most deserving example is rate of Petrol and Diesel in Karnataka and especially in namma Bengalooru - it is highest in India, thanks to the varities of CESS we have apart from normal ones!) Where all these CESS goes? Dont we deserve proper roads and proper traffic system when we pay so much?? If this was not enough, from next month, there is the great government plan to bring so-called 'Infrastructure Cess' on all 2-wheelers and 4-wheelers!! What the heck and what the crap?? All these makes me so so irritative but who is there to hea

It was 9 Years back, in April 1998, that we decided to go for a brand new television, after a gap of nearly 10 years!! Suiting our budget came a Philips 21" Color Television that had some super features (at that time, it was super - like Child lock, 70 channels, multiple sound modes, multiple picture modes,etc..!!!) and we all were very exited about this new 'gizmo' in our home! :-) Now, after good old 9 years and after touring Mandya , Mysore and back to Bengalooru , on Friday , our TV itself called it enough before we ourselves could do so, though we had no intention now! :-( We called an engineer who came and opened the heart of it for the very first time and after around 30minutes of testing and analysis, he said its not a minor problem and it will take some days to get to know whatz the problem and then solve it! So, me and my mom decided give it some rest (after 9 years of excellent experience) and then started to look out for a new TV. We were pretty tempted to g

Dunno what happened but gradually I stopped blogging..Writing is one of my favorite activities but somehow really no idea why this activity came down gradually..I really feel sad on this daily..:(( But I definitely need to come back and will come back..
