The next day : Atul and the Stove again
This time, shock had just finished boiling some water on the right heater and switched it off for cooling. Atul puts his stuff on the left heater and makes sure he doesn't forget to switch it on.. All's good, just that he switched on the right heater. After a while the water started boiling again, instead of Atul's roti being heated and Atul goes "Who put water on this stove"
Realising that he has not only made a goof, but have shouted it out for shock to catch him, Atul does a pre-emptive strike "Ha ha ha, I have compensated for switching off your curry yesterday" !!

stoveeee
Imagine this
Our electrive stove has those four heaters.. call them front-left, front-right, back-left and back-right, as it appears to some one facing it.. and each has their seperate switch. This is the sequence in which things happen
Shock puts something to cook on front-right heater and switches on the front-right switch
5 mins later, Atul puts a Thava and a roti on it to heat, on the front-left heater, but switches on nothing
2 mins later, Atul feels the roti, finds that its not at all hot, turns it around and leaves, still, not switching it on
again, 2 mins later our man feels it, figures out its still not hot, this time realises that its not on, gives a classic smile to shock and switches the front-left heater on
4 mins later, Atul is done with his heating the roti, and he switches the heater off--- not just the left one, but the right one as well !! Thank God shock was standing right there watching it , if not his curry would have never been cooked !!

vin-comp
Vindo's laptop has two logins (w/o passwd) . "vin" and "stranger"
Most times shock, atul and whoever else uses Vindo's comp, use the "vin" login and Vindo uses the "stranger" login !!
*****************************************************
Sometimes when shock or atul are using the comp, Vindo would come and politely ask " Hey can I take 5 mins to check mails" ?
So many people use his comp, I guess, and every now and then Vindo cleans up his desktop, and puts all the unknown files into "UFO" folder

Imagine the conversation

A: How come you were in the middle?
Vindo: The girls brother wanted to sit next to Window..

Hello Halu !
This one's not on atul, but on Halu (find out who Halu is by reading one of the old posts!!)
So, during important days, some of us volunteer at the temple for parking help. The rush will be so much and there aren't enough parking spaces around the temple and so extra parking is arranged in the nearby Greek orthodox church, which is not so crowded on non-sundays
And as volunteers, you need to stop the cars at the entrance of the temple and tell them "Sorry, parking in the temple is full. We have arranged extra parking at the church, so please go there and park"
Halu once volunteered.. After repeating this so many times, the great physicist thought , that the complete information has been spread enuf number of times.. So he decided to, sort of compress it.. why all the unnecessary long sentences
From the next car onwards, he started saying. "Sorry , temple is full, please go to the church" !!

The taste of....
Did you ever want to know how an after shave lotion tastes ? Ask Atul
You see, when for a few matches Sachin or Sehwag don't score much, you know something big's coming .. So naturally when Atul did not give much bloggable stuff ("kutty kutty" things keep happening, but thats old news now) for almost a month, we were curious.. and waiting for the big one
And finally it happened...
One fine morning, the great simma poured a cup full of aftershave lotion into his mouth thinking its mouthwash ... Apparently ,he immediately realised something's wrong and all kinds of chemical formulae (predominantly that of methanol), started roaming around in his head.. And in his own words "Thankfully, I did not swallow it"
Duude, so what do u normally do with mouthwash ?!

More Random Jokes
These have nothing to do with the characters of 9006 turned 8309 ....
Our PM Manmohan Singh has some amazing ways of pronouncing some words. After his meeting with Musharraf once, he told the media "We had a nice meeting and we made a giant statement" . MHz networks which aired it, had transcription of his speech, eventhough he was speaking in English, and they also wrote giant statement. What our man meant, in fact was "joined statement"
This is another of a true life incident that my advisor told me. A guy lost his Car keys once when he was at home. His roommates found it, but did not tell the fellow. Instead, they decided to play a trick. In the night they moved the car from where it was parked to some other place. The next day morning, the fellow got psyched. He went out somewhere (walking) and came back the car had again "moved" on its own !! I mentioned it here, because first thing I thought when I heard the losing key part was Atul. He stands a perfect candidate for this adventure. Only thing is , we the housemates will be the ones who will end up as fools.. as Atul will not notice that his car is "moving", even if we move it by substantial amounts every one hour .... !!

Buncha keys
Its one of those cold November nights. Atul walks in home. His upper half is fully covered, with his fat jacket, monkey cap, gluse in his hands, and all that you can possibly imagine
Lower half- ummm.. just shorts ! Vindo starts laughing at the site and when he explained whats so funny, Atul goes .. "Oh, thats why everybody in the restaurant was looking at me like that"
Anyways, Atul leaves the jacket on the couch. His key falls down on the floor, but our man doesn't notice. After dinner, our man is getting ready to go back to lab.. He wears his jacket, but realises his key isn't there.. He looks around and finds his whole key bunch lying on the floor.Pointing to that key bunch, he asks Vindo "Hey man, Vindo, if you are not going out anywhere tonite, can I borrow your keys for tonite ?" !!!!!
