Busy Man !

I urgently wanted to speak on something with one of my colleague yesterday, he was not picking my call at all, So sent him this SMS "Please call me back urgently,need to speak to you" This is what he replied back " DO NOT DISTURB for the next 3-4 hours, i am very busy sleeping in a very important meeting.Tks" :-)

This is life

Remember these amazing dialogues ?
"Yeh Kya Ho Raha Hai....."
" Lagaam.... Lagaaaam"
"30 Years ka experience hai"
" Oh ! What a Relieeeeef !!!"

Relived all these memories from the amazing sitcom of 1984, all the discussions we had about the previous weeks episode in school recess time ! saw this VCD at a store and grabbed it !

Am talking about ! YEH JO HAI ZINDAGI :-)

Code Word FM

I have been observing this for the past few days, will do so for a few more days. If the results are positive it would mean that me and the cab driver connect at a deep level, Else whatever is happening is pure co-incidence.

Every day i am the first one to get picked up in the Indicab. The FM radio is switched off. I open up a book and start reading. After about 10 mins two more guys get picked up. The FM is still not on.

At this point all the usual stupid coversation that everyone is having just for the heck of it starts, Hey Man ! how are you ! Saw the match ? Etc etc ! And then there is the usual between the conversation silence. The FM is still off.

I start humming a song, any song. ***Wooooosh***** the cabbie moves in a flash and switches on the Radio. I WONDER WHY !!!!! Below is what my deep analysis has led me to believe.

1) He feels am a horrible singer and thinks whatever crap the radio plays is better than even letting me hum !!!
2) The moment he hears me singing, he is reminded that his cab also has a radio.
3) He actually waits for my signal and thinks it is some sort of a good omen!

This has happened continously for more than a week now ! and i am not gonna break this tradition. From tomorrow i am gonna plan which song i am gonna hum too :-)
