A Double Whammy !!!

To begin with, the domestic help at my paying guest accommodation has ran away today, owing to ill treatment by his employees – reminding me of olden days bonded labour – the bond in this case being minuscule amount of currency and a shelter to stay. His demand of increase in wages is so similar to the work staff at our mill back home in the mountain kingdom of Nepal who have stalled work from the past two days for the same demand – “increase in wages”. So funny it is, I am supporting one increase of wage whereas totally despising the other.. So is the big irony of life…

Why a double whammy???

My very dear friend Rahul is too running “towards” the big states of A, a.k.a USA; this very same day to pursue his dreams of mastering the universe-ity of Pennsylvania, for his MSc.. Here’s wishing him all the very best.. Hope he gets a green card very soon!! ;)

So you see, it’s a double whammy, life’s going to be a tad difficult hence forth.. but hey, life moves on!!!

aaachoooo!!!!!

The dreaded “F” word which sends people scurrying away to safe distance in order to save their faces --- or rather people saving their faces from the big F --- you got it -- flu -- more precisely -- swine flu---
How & why save face?
A new trend of covering up their faces with whatever piece of cloth available – preferably the fancy green masks or in dire situations your regular handkerchief comes handy-- its so funny when in trains you see lone individuals with face covered up – but the moment their daily group comes in – the logorrhea overcomes the fear – masks go underneath the chin and – the chitter chatter begins.
When are we going to see the financial system shut down ( i mean bank treasury holiday ) (totally as a precaution) like the schools.. ( wish we were in schools now!!)
God save the swines….!!!
