subhanallah!!!!
the tale of 2 friends having a conversation while a rusty train chugged past all obstacles to bring them even closer.
P.S: Full credit should be given to BSNL,for somehow taming itself to actually deliver the messages with a negligible delay.Airtel played the prefect's role-like it always does.
People auction the weirdest things! Usually stuff without much value or use, like things of everyday use!
I can understand people auctioning a Picasso, or a Rembrandt or Surely a Da Vinci. Or Tippus sword, those are pieces of art, a statement of ancient day craftsmanship, of creativity, of power. But this?? and Kylie auctioned some unmentionables to the highest bidder!
I don't understand, cause, to being with, it was rightfully ours (the glasses i meant) if not for the act or something! and second of all it's not worth fighting for, it's ok to say "yes Gandhi wore glasses and they're in the US now, under lock and key" instead of "yes Gandhi wore these glasses, would you like to try it on, may be take a photo with it?" Heh! peoples attachments to things sometimes become there own undoing! i wonder what happened to whoever who bought Kylie's...... when his wife saw it!
I would like to know who actually bought those glasses what where it finally rested. Seems a little crazy the whole concept, really!
@Anusha
may be the network provider went "we're going 3g anyway, fix this SMS bug also when you update the server macha and remember not to make it a batch process this time!!" haha! I remember my dad's phone, network provider said his phone was not reachable when he was standing right under the tower at Ballal Circle!
Thank u for enlightenin us on da issue.,v indians are jus like tat..come on,we still follow educational quota n divide n say v r al equal,.bribing,anti social beliefs,lies..indeed our father o da nation would not b happy with things currently cause his own ideals r not bein kept n followed,.y would he have bothered bout his things lik spec's,clock etc gone to diff places.?Eventually INDIA will buy it out sooner or later, but yet Indeed da old man should b pleased with 1 thing,non violence tat v ardently r following against our friendly neighbourhood..
Nice one.
Bapu handed over ta spectacles to him saying "these gave me ta vision to free india"
Veru funny!
You wouldn't believe, most of the Acts enacted by Indians are nothing but tripe! Can't make a sense of it, without scratching your head.
More on that here. I found even this funny too.

Tippu's sword, Gandhi's spectacles, i wish Kohinoor were to come next(mr.mallya, betcha cant buy that). U'l be surprised to find this 'achievement' of Mr.M mentioned under the breweries section on the wiki page, funny, but I'm equally thankful to him for his 'high' solutions and the kf calendars n models. I wont call it a waste, it'd rather stay at sabarmati ashram than sm bizmn's house, whatever be the intentions behind mr.m's eyes.
Illuminating it was, so was the rest of the links which i went through after reading your post.
Some more weird laws:
"The Punjab Excise Act still says that when you open a bar, you have to call the ‘DHOL WALA’ (Drummer) to announce its inaugural."
"The Indian Factories Act stipulates that each factory in India should have a water pot in the factory premises to provide drinking water to the employees.In today's world, no one would install a water pot in its factory but would rather prefer to install a water cooler. Even today authorities inspecting the factory pressing for the water pot. The authorities even fined the factory for not having a water pot in its premises. You all will be surprised to know that the huge multiplexes (commercial malls etc) are also categorized as a ‘FACTORY’ according to the statute. Now imagine that all the multiplexes in the country having to put a water pot in their premises."
"One more funny but true instance of law not being amended can be seen in the Punjab Police Act. According to the act the Punjab police has to send daily reports to its headquarters in Lahore. So Pakistan has one more reason to be angry with India as according to the Punjab Police Rules 1914, the act stipulates that the Punjab Police has to keep in touch with it head quarters in Lahore on a daily basis and the rules have not been changed til today—hence they still remain in force."
@no1: I'd thought the habitual 'okay...?'s was limited to vocal conversations. miss.verbaliser no.1, msg mein bhi..?!! twist barli...
@Arjun
I'm verbaliser 2,not 1.I thought thats evident by the frequency of my okay's.
I was just surfing and somehow got connected to your blog, good one i really enjoyed it hmmmm.... i was laughing while i was going through your article, i just like the narrative part and would not comment on bapu's auction issue because i just think both auction and commenting on auction is stupidity anyways keep writing...
Why are the fonts like that? Gives you the impression you are talking about a murder or something!
