Random Thoughts

RT 1: To the best of my knowledge, the only death which is celebrated by any religion is Ravana's while there is at least one death in every religion that is mourned. A life lost in any case is sad. So my fellow bloggers, please avoid expressing your contempt towards the irrationally widespread grief, or on any other aspect, related to YSR's death.

RT 2: The new Tata Docomo has a tarriff rate of 1p/sec and the demand for it suggests that a good chunk of the market will eventually will eventually land up in Tata's network. If people are charged for every second they talk, will that make them talk less? I certainly hope so.

RT 3: When in Bangalore, the best way to reach your destination, on a self-driven vehicle is to keep asking the auto-drivers about the route. They always help, sometimes even pull their vehicle to a just to explain it clearly.This is a note of gratitude towards the auto-drivers in Bangalore, without who I would be lost many times over. Hail the auto drivers.

RT 4: It rainsalmost everyday in Bangalore and I forget my helmet on the bike with the same frequency. Hope someone develops a water-proof helmet which is comfortable to wear too.

Hail the Auto-Rajas.. Kings of Bangalore Roads.. I truly appreciate them inspite of the fact that i hv survived some drunken revelry of those aristrocat class and managed to get myself out of some ugly roadside brawls.. You should see their behaviour during riot times. Dr. Rajkumar's Death was untimely and sad, but made more misfortunate by these autodrivers.
Speaking of untimely death.. Death is in by itself carries a whole lot of emotions. Your suggestion to bloggers to avoid expressing contempt is apt..
Walk the Talk :D.. People can never talk less.. I Bet.

PS.. wats the use even if some1 develops a waterproof helmet (i do believe it exists) , any eventuality.. you are gonna forget it daily.. :P

Guess I still am to see their ugly side in Bangalore which was the more visible side in Chennai...

Well... on some further research, I realised that people are cutting down seconds but adding minutes to their talk time...

about the helmets: that's the point - even if i forget it, it's dry when i wear it again
