December season

Sorry sorry . We have to call it as Kaarthigai maatham (Ayyappa season).

Ya. Really it is becoming ayyappa season. Lot of devotees of lord ayyappa coming out in this month. Guys…. Before I start the conversation I want to make it clear I am also a great devotee of hindu gods. I am not against god. I used to go temple every week. Just I feel few things very odd. I want to share those points with you.

1. Maalai poduthal--- Doing for lord ayyappa especially in November December season

I didn’t oppose this habit.It might be lot of pupil faith. Even sakthi did this in his childhood. But now I want to ask few questions to those devotees.

1. Towel in the shoulder

Why all the devotees wearing a towel in your shoulder? Can anyone give the proper answer.? If you put “maalai” yu have to wear this towel also. That too block colour.

Come on guys., lets think about the reason behind this. In initial days , the devotees who are all put “maalai” won’t wear the shirt. Because removing the shirt in front the ulmighty means that “you are removing the ego as “I am”. “ It means in front of god everyone are small creatures only. Everyone should be equal without status partiality. That’s the why devotees removed their shirt in “maalai” period. In for that 48 days they would be without shirt. But to avoid the chilling mist in December, they used wear the towel in their shoulder. By the time it became mandatory habit. Nowadays am seeing lot of professionals wearing jeans and t shirt additionally a towel in their shoulder. Really I don’t understand the reason for the towel in that afternoon hot sun. Even in corporate offices am able to see this type guys. They called themselves as engineers. Crazy cracks.

Guys c’on. Due to your profession you can’t be without pant and shirt. So what is the need of towel now. Just put it away. Pray the god. Not all the foolish faith,

To be continued

My Hospital Days


First time in my life,I have admitted in hospital . It was so fearful moments.

For lot of ppl, this was so silly because they used to do. Believe me, from my childhood I went to hospital only thrice . Rarely I used to take injection and pills. So I am the guy miles away from medicines.

Last week I enjoyed the typhoid very close to me. I was in fever merely 10 days. In the initial 4 days I thought it was just a fever. So I didn’t bother about that much and carried over my routine life. In addition I have made two weekend trips to tiruttani and cricket match in Chennai. By the way shewag entertained me well.In Tuesday I got my blood result. Wow. What a happy news. The doctor announced typhoid with all his teeth in front of me. He suggested to take me 5 days rest in his hospital. He assured that he will take care of medi claim and all.. Such a kindly businessman he was.

All my friends were busy in their office works. So just I went to home and admitted in family doctor’s nursing home. Even though they are pleaseful to me, I was so scared of needles. When they searched my veins for glucose drips, I was no more. Frozen in fear and pain.The time by time fear gone and pain increased. I cant even lift my left hand. Till that time, left hand was not much useful except some shit work. But that time only I felt the importance of that hand. The hospital was so silent and clean. I hate that atmosphere. I can’t even sleep as my wish with the needle inside my left hand. So painful moments. Really I was waiting for the moment to release me from that hell. Finally I begged doctor to leave me. He allowed me to go after 12 bottles. He said I was so tired . Damn shit. Ya I was tired. But I became too tired after his needles.

Even after reaching the home, there was lot of restrictions in food. Parents didn’t allow me to go outside. Somehow I managed to return to Chennai on next Tuesday. Once I reach the office the first question was why did you come. Good one la. After that only I realize, Christmas leave was waiting for me. Such a fool am.

Prevention is better than cure.—Good words .

Still I hate hospitals more.

farewell to TIGER

Guys.. We won the Test series against ausi(nov-2008) in 2-0. Really its fantastic work by our boys. Dhoni lead the team well . But Ravi mentioned as “midas “ hand in ceremony .May be the fact.

The few important things in this series happened. This is very very memorable series for Indian cricket fans. All the important things rely on Fab-5.

1. Sachin Tendulkar—

I dono how describe little master. He born to create the records. A extra crown in his head. It is very proud thing that a Indian player is the number 1 in both test and ODI format.

2.V.V.S.Laxman

Very Very Special Laxman.—this senior guy plays always great innings against Australia. What’s the chemistry behind that VVS? His 100th test. He did a nicve game. We expected a century.But missed…

3.Rahul Dravid.

I am really sorry to say , this is worst series to our jammy. He didn’t do god by bat and field. Its very rare moment to see dravid missing an easy catches. I am really unable to believe my eyes when I saw that. Jammy Whats up to.. A heavy pressure puts on his shoulder makes feel inferior. Ayway jammy come again………. You are a champion.

4. Anil Kumble


The man of mystery. Jumbo…. What happened to you. Why did you announce the retirement in between the series..?? u played for India merely 18 years. You are a champion cricketer all the time. Why did you take this decision.. I didn’t say its too early. It was at correct time leave. But what is urge to leave in middle of the series jumbo. The worst media creates the torture to anil They usd to keep on asking questions about his retirement., Eventhough he announced as he don have any plans like that, the pl focused him. When he didn’t perform in a single innings, the entire light focused on him. Its unfair to jumbo. Anyway no Indian can break your golden recors. You rescued the team from lot of critical moments.

You swung your hand in the air thousands of time to make opponents cry.

Now it was swung for the final time to make Indians freeze. Bye Bye Jumbo


5.Sourav Ganguly


Last but no least……..

The Dada

The real tiger in the Indian time. He was much aggressive captain. I already wrote his contributions to our team. He has played for past 16 years. He is the one grouped the new Indian team. Created lot of cricketrs. He was a great captain for India after Azar. Even he is equal or more than azar. No one come near to dada in his contributions as captain. Even sachin reveals as he is loosing his best friend and good captain.He got the test captaincy on this same day ten years before. Now leaving the team with lot of memories on the same day. How his farewell should be……. He was the best captain in India ever,. He was the Best left hander India ever produced. He is the one of legend in India cricket. But farewell…, On the end of third test, jumbo got great farewell. That looks fair. WE expected the same or much for our beloved dada. Personally it wa very sentimental day for me. My dada is on the ground for the last time.

Dada We are behind you ever, You are living in our heart. Miss u dada…..

A rainy season in chennai--venice of India

Wow….. It’s raining outside…… Who don like rain unless until it fall on your head…?



Rain is god’s gift to us. Mostly kids will enjoy the rain most. It helps to peasants. It gives water resources and mainly power. Everyone loves rain. It showers us. Its gives great climate. BUT………….

Could anyone enjoy the rain in Chennai????? Ho god. Even with umbrellas people used to get fully drenched in the rain. The worst part, why people scared about rainy season especially in Chennai is the roads during rain. Almost shit. No one can walk in th4 road unless he is expertise in circus shows. We can get free shower from the sky as well from the roads. Yes. Guys don’t search the swimming pools on the summer. You can get freely on the roads of Chennai in rainy seasons. Everywhere you can find swimming pools. Our road construction is great. The roads can withstand at least one day rain u know.

Simply the government offers you a free demo on how farmers working on their field (I mean you have to walk in the muddy field. Hey a real time village experience. You can make holy colors in your pants. Enjoy it yaar.





Two wheeler drive

If you ride the two wheeler u never where is fall or where is up. Everything is under water. So you have to swim carefully with your bike. The same time you have one privilege. That is you can present the colorful water to pedestrians. You can color up their dress and make them wet by your speed in the bike. Great advantage right?? The same time u can’t go much speed in the bike because flood. So the accident risk is reduced. Even though you tried to be fast, you can be cini hero by siding your bike in flat road.And you can donate thousands of bucks to hospitals. Come on yaar. You can utilize your medi claim. The same time, if drive very slow engine will be off because water coolness. So driving bike is so skillful work in Chennai rain.

Car Drive




The unlucky people. They can’t wet their legs in beautiful pools of Chennai. Their dresses will same with out any modern art by nature. These people having great advantage as they can shower the ugly ground water to pedestrians as well as bike riders. You are well set to show your driving speed skills in roads now. They have only one positive point with them. They can spend more times in the road than anyone else. Yes. Due to rain you can see only half of the road. That too queued by lot bikes and buses. So you can dive only as slowly as possible. you can enjoy sights of Chennai at the mean time. Even you can fill a sudoku in hindu. Believe me you have more time for that in current traffic. The people can learn how tortoise is can move.This is the best time to learn all those things and improve their patience.

To all

All of us have chance to donate our blood. Yes. Due to rain, you can see crores of mosquitoes on your street. So you can donate litresof your blood to them. The same time you are too genius to know what are all the new diseases in the world now. You can fill the doctors wallet.

Thanks to government for offering us great roads and great experiences. Poor people cursing the rain. Otherwise when they will get these type of experiences.

Finally yes I love the rain most before I come to Chennai.

Bench periods in life

Did u ever feel the hardest work is sitting simply without any work in the office? Its hardest part I feel. I was being like that lot of days. Especially in software companies multiple days we have to sit like that in the name “Bench”. Lot of people used to say its happiest part . But they are in the shore and commenting these people .Once their legs got wet by waves, they will come to know the pain behind the Bench.

Software life. Its quite different from other office life. You will come to knowall your collogues by officially. A fake friendship will lie between everyone. You might be close among your team members only. You might not க்நொவ்is working on the next floor, next block, at least next team. A screen would be formed in everyone eyes. Oh. God. I am diverted from the topic. I came here to talk about bench periods not about software office life. The thing why started to mention about office life everyone would like strange and seems to be hard working. You might be start feeling damn bored in that situation. You may not have any work to do. But ppl in management simply asked you to study. They ever know studying by compulsion is how much difficulty?? When you were fresher or one or two year experience, studying may be looks easy. But when you are a experienced geek you will feel how difficult it is. Its really tough to pass the time when everyone around you are working something sincerely( or acting as sincere).In this you have to start act smart as learning something in the leisure times(What is leisure when you don’t have work to do).Eventhough if you do like that, after a week when you fill the status report for your week activities the guilty feeling might kil you. You might have start thinking what did you do in the past week. You may start feeling guilty to sit inside the office with out any work

.In some other projects a different case. People would be in partial bench. It means a maintenance or support projects, once client raise any defect or reques they used to get damn busy work . And in the remaining days they have to wait for the customer to give some other work. In the mean time has anyone think what whey will do in those waiting times??? Do anyone can assure where their carrer will go if company gets the workonly in partial times??? People may argue as company also loses its money by sending money for bench people. Ya . Its absolutely true. But the People in bench also loosing their carrer growth by bench times.

All the people in bench don’t mean they are having less skill set. They are deserved to appreciate by their hard work. But due to lack of project works they are in bench.

One proverb

What is very longest in the world…??? The day time of a Jobless guy.

The joy













We are missing this smile somewhere when we grow up.We are not ready to spend even an hour to enjoy the nature and people around us.Really we don't have time??? We are used to enjoy the beauty of nature by just looking at the forward mails. We are getting into all the sports not like as ground in childhood. Just by TV and mostly cricinfo. Just am scared even love also packed in the form of net application and served to us?? We will eagerly accept that. Doesn't we???Can anyone tell last time when they enjoyed in the rain??? we used to curse the rain everytime because we think it disturbs us. Damn fake.We never realized the beauty and joy of rain after the childhood.Rain --still lot of poets mad abt that. Its wonderful joy. It makes u child again. It brings the natural smell of our eart. Have anyone in the world doesn't love rain??? why should we waer the mask... yes. We have time. Lots and lots of time to love. Come friends lets stop existing start living.

One night @ the cal centre





As Per many guys, me too started this book with different meaning.( As u understand). Finally caught up, this is some kind of book to blow the face. This book is quite nice one I have seen. Among the 6 characters I love Vroom. But most of the time everyone used to behave likes Shyam. Everyone might have faced the problem of bad manager who is much selfish and made us to act as per his wish. Excellent mind replica of today’s SW and BPO guys. The love and broke up reasons for shayam and prinyanka are very practical to the current world. The girls love man but marries money. It portrays the nice ஸ்டோரி. Finally this is very nice book. Guys why don’t you start this book??

Good Bye DADA



It is really hard to believe its time to say Good Bye to DADA the great. When I heard the news, really I was shocked. It’s a worst moment of Indian Cricket. Ganguly- the greatest captain of Indian Cricket history. He is the most successive captain after AZAR. He put a new road for Indian team. He showed what captainship is. He was a real captain or the Indian cricket ship.

We laughed with sourav. We cried with him. We enjoyed with him. We felt the real game thrill with him. Whenever he didn’t performe well, we were sad. Whenever he did, we are the guys on the top of the world. We lost lot nights sleep in argument for him. Initially when we watched cricket, he was there. Things changed. We watched cricket only for him. No one can forget his shots and fabulous sixes. He is the only Indian cricketer with backbone. His aggressiveness shows what Indians are.


Suck with BCCI politics. A great cricketer ends his journey because no road. Just I am remembering a scene from NARNIA “when the lion dies in the crowd of witch. Like this, our dada’s carrier is forced to end. Its great unfair to his standard. We should not treat him like this. We are ass h….. .Forgot his contributions to Indian cricket. Now India saying youth cricket. We created the youth team.???????????/// Is it AZAR?? Or Sachin??? No doubt they are great players. But none other than our DADA formed the new young team. He generated the new cricket in India. He introduced Baaji, Zaheer, Pathan, Yuvaraj, Shewag. These folks are ganguly’s inventions to Indian cricket. When BCCI talks about age and retirement first, dada’s name only came into the list. Why the hell????,


We are the only country gave up our honorable captain for a foreigner words(Greg chapel) . We used to slaves from British period. So we used to give our own brothers them. So now we gave our lovable prince to that Australian fool’s words. Did Greg achieved anything as Coach except the play with ganguly’s carrer.? He wanted team as his house toys and captain as his remote player. Dada never gave up his self respect. He was not ready to sell his dream team to Mr. Greg. But the sad thing, we were also blamed dada. He is the one came back with big bang even after all the humiliations.

I felt shame to be a Indian cricket fan. Bloody sucking BCCI politics and poor Indian mentality. It is not only dada, tomorrow our great wall, or lakshman or master sachin may feel the same situation. We never know the preciousness of great cricketers. In our young no one can go near their standards. Fimally we miss u DADA. Thanks for giving memories to us.
