God, keys again

Atul is sitting on the couch, gloomy "Man, I lost my keys, my car keys, room keys , lab keys .. everything". Then he gets up goes on a frantic search all around the house - almost every area that one can think in the house. 30 min gone, no respite

Finally Utsob, gives a suggestion." Did you search under the cushion of the couch u were sitting?"

Atul "Oh thats a good idea". He lifts up the cushion, Utsob notices that the keys are right there, but Atul still misses the whole bunch, right in front of his eyes. He puts the cushion back.. Utsob keeps watching the fun.. Suddenly it dawns upon the Lion king.. "Hey my keys" !!

Enough room

Atul and Utsob are on their evening walk-n-talk back from College Perk to 9006 .. It was kinna dark, and they reached a grassy area. Atul goes "Hey man, I donno if there will be snakes and all here. Why don't u go in front?". Utsob says okay and walks in the front. He goes about 15 feet and sees atul still staying back. "Hey Atul, you can atleast follow me I thought"

A serious, concerned and caring Atul says "I want to leave enough gap so that if you see a snake you can run easily "

The gap(e)

This is old estory

A few months after atul had bought his car... Kudva, shock and atul are going somewhere... it was in a parking lot.. Atul stops the car at a distance seeing two cars parked in front of him, and says "I donno if my car will go through the gap". Kudva starts pushing.."what man, it will easily go". Atul goes the usual "Hey , wait ra, don't put me under pressure".. as both of them keep arguing about it, the University shuttle bus comes through that gap from the other side ..

lollypop atul

Once more we get a voice message from our esteemed-in-her-sweet-80ies chinese land lady

"Would u Call me at thlee zelo one, nine thlee seven, five thlee eight seven"

Atul calls back, being the head-of-the-house, well, not really, but because he has been bugged left-right-center by his roomies

Anyways, some where Atul has to give his name to the landlady, I mean the spelling

Our man goes

"A for apple, T for Tom, U for Umbrella,.. L for Lake"

The landlady can't understand the last word.. So Atul explains

"Lake, lake, L for Lollypop, A for Atul, K for key, E for elephant"..

The fun goes on .....
