normally abnormal

Our dear Bongali physicist Quashik , was talking abut his school in West Bengal ... that it was run by a Mallu organization or group.. and then he wanted to say that it was not a Malayalam medium school or anything.. and guess what he ended up saying

"I studied in a school run by Mallus. But it was a NORMAL school only" !!!!

Dude, avoid visiting Kerala... don't think the Mallu-Bongoli three F funda
Fish-Football-Fidel would be enuf to save u from being beaten up for such statements :-)

ROTFL - 66


Found this somewhere on the net.. hope its not offensive to anyone (let know ur feedback)





And thanks to Wayne for sending/reminding the following piece on Vindo !


This happened when umd_samskritam was preparing for Sparsh 2006. In addition to the "aati kya khandala" and "gabbar singh", we actually had plans to do the "soocide scene" also, but scrapped it last minute as it wasn't coming out as well ....

Now read on the exchange of mails :

Mail 1 : Wayne_M to S_I, A_V, R_S, S_K, Vinod_S, J ... Apr 14

Can someone take a print out of the "soocide" scene script for me also?

tks
Wayne.

Mail 2 : Vindo's reply : Apr 14

I think Wayne can do that...

after 5 glorious years........

So finally it was time for the great Simma to leave...... after a glorious 5 year PhD... to Canada for his post-doc

Before we get into the senti part, here are a couple of last-few-days goofs

*****************
1) Atul decides to call anyone and everyone he knows , to say good bye ... So much so that after a while he forgot whom all he called (and neither cud his cell hold that many "outgoing calls" no:s, that he started making a second round of calls and "Hey, did I say goodbye to you ? ....."

***************

2) It seems as tho' the legacy stayed on even after Atul physically left - atleast for a couple of days more... There was a packet of Lindt chocolates, potentially left over by our man , on the table... Don (Atul's replacement...) and I enjoyed a couple of them, before Don picked up the last one, which ... kinna looked out of shape...

"Never mind" said he and opened it, only to see a bunch of chocolate wrappers rolled up into the shape of a little ball !!

*****************************

So, 65 posts , and needless to say Atula was the greatest contrinutor.... Vindo, tried, and still tries, but can't get even 20% of what Atul used to be.... and now that he has left, how do we sustain this blog ? Are we going to close it down ? Or outsource ? Our curious fans have been asking :-)

Well, what do you think ? What should we do ? Take the liberty of using the "comments" section for what u think......

A potential option is if you can send in daily goofs- of yours, of your friends,... roomies.... And I have heard a couple of potential such characters.... apparently ones nickname starts with a "z" ....

So, copyrites permitting, I keep my email id : drisya(at)gmail.com open to such contributions ...
as long as the jokes are clean, and with some level of approval from the party being talked about, they shall be published......

never say never again !

running "away" to glory

Time for Marine Corps and stuff like that, so just remembered this one

Simma once decided to run 3 miles.... runs it , figures out his car is 3 miles away, calls some one for a potential ride !!
