Satellite Sadists, dont prove the TV as an idiotic channel again...

'Squirming' - The exact word I could make use when I was watching Chutti TV alongwith my 4 year old cousin Saravana... The reason for that is an unneeded (and unwanted) advertisement during the ad-break of a very popular cartoon show (I think Jackie Chan Cartoon serial it was). After 10 mins of the cartoon start, the ad break started and since the advertisments are as colorful and peppy as the cartoons, most of the kids fix their eyes on the TV screens. But to my shocking, the second advertisement was........ about a girl how comfortable she feels on usage of a particular brand sanitary naps.

What the hell is this?? Chutti TV I believe is full-fledged kids oriented channel... and I cant think of one good reason to show this one?? And whats more, there was a second break in the cartoon and the ad shown was how almost all girls on earth got seduced with the an opposite gender on the usage of a perfume or body spray. Ape effect I would call this... Yes, that guy does look like one...

Sun TV known for its catchy, hyped and obsessive promotional advertisements, their worst movies standing first in this promotional list... Let them post any sh__ in their common channels. But why cant any PRO or the programme supervisors or the Ad keepers for the channels have some sense and know that the kids have few more years left to see/know/enjoy all these things??

Or at last, as always, are these known and done? Channelers - plz stop with these.. Do not go to the next step and start publishing the productivity and protectivity of KS in these channels...

First time in my blog I am writing something in a lousy mood... I was in a better mood even yesterday when we had an insufficient but highhhhly paid food in the GRTGD...

GRD Grand Days - simply barren ways...

No, better stop wasting your corporate team money... GRT Grand days is definitely no wise choice for a Team Lunch or a TD. (Not Test Director).

Even before we could start the food items, we could see that the variety got finished!!! And even the existing variety not proving to be any better taste.. Barbeque or Green park should never be compared with this GRT-GD.

One thing to be noticed here is, almost all the star hotels are booked fullhouse on wednesday... The quarter coming to an end for most of the companies i believe... or is that like on Thursdays and Fridays most crampies wont take NV??

Somehow, all of our APS folks are keeping the fingers crossed for the next trifle treat from the Trio (RamKrishnaShanto) in Accord!!

May be happening in the very next week itself...

Delilciously waiting...

Too much of 'hi-fi' and incidentally all are true.....

Shantosh taking a call with the Microsoft (not an interview), Ramesh doing a inner search with his own google to tackle the business need for the dynamic drawing of the Plant in the application, Krishna as always maintaining a steady balance with his official development work and his personal(ity) development in Technology and me doing an impact analysis of the SSIS Interface run during the absence of GB...
If you think the above things were the one running on top of our mind, plz, high time to correct that immediately... We all badly waiting for the Team lunch in GRT!!!

OK.. Once Sustain Bro finishes his (utterly useless) call with Microsoft we are planning to start.. It would yield some fruits even if he could spend some time with his personal calls...

No more time to wait... Rushing off... Bye...

Cheers!!

Lets start the tennis play score.. I mean Love all!!!!

Me, My bike, A ride and an Accident!!

Ya, thats rite... Met with a minor accident when I was driving at a pretty high velocity to my office on Saturday afternoon... Directly experienced the direct collision principle of two bodies moving in opposite direction in the same straight line!!

My bike got badly hit. And I had a good hit as well...

Got to leave now to one of my daily routines... Swim!!! :-)

Will continue in a while..

Cheers and love!!

Krishna's left arm seam - The best highlight of the day!!

"R v going 2day?" - The text msg from Krishna made me to pull myself from the semi-sleep...  I confirmed him that we are making it to the match today!! :-) Then started to ring every person I could and checked if they would be able to come (or requested them to a good extent not to drop out ;-)) .  DoD (Dad of Dhunas) withdrew himself at the eleventh hour quoting few personal commitments..... Grrrrrrr... :'-(... Apart from that, there was a good turn-around (ofcourse I should use the word 'relatively' here...).

The first person to ring me was Nanjun, the fair and handsome guy from the Unix team. Somehow collected the bats, stumps and headed to the ground... Met Nanjun opposite to CTC and waited some more time for our GSIP darling Manoj Singh!! He came and I guided them home (groundukkuthaampa...).

Almost everyone who promised to come had turned around - Violent shot Vadivel, Mastermind Manoj, Mighty Krishna the Leftie etc...

Haha., as we are searching for 'some'one to play with (same like Chennai - 28) ;-) we found a person (his friends call him Jonty) came forward and asked for a match!!! What response we need to give? Gladly accepted!!!

And amazingly we won the toss too!! We managed to put some handy runs and started to chase! It is more of a team effort I should say... Krishna played a short and sweet innings as a make-shift opener (Oh boy.... who is the regular opener then??). Vadivel dont know why, he resembled the Gilchrist of IPL 2010... Not sure I scored runs on two digits but for sure,  the balls I had faced would have crossed near to 3 digits (I am including the wides and no-balls ^_^ ) - Or, I could patch up myself by saying I was holding our innings! :-(

And we started the chase and as usual Krishna, with his electrifying bowling attack, made the batting crease a little dancing stage for the opening batsmen with their struggling footwork against his nagging reverse swinging yorkers!! And a sudden slower kissed the top edge of one of the openers ending up with a sweet catch!!

This very shocking slice gave the 'Jonty' team a setback... And we continued to bowl well and the new add-in Nanjun impressed with his medium / slow tactics as well. Vadivel chipped in with his tricky change of pace deliveries to tease the batsman and increase their frustration... Manoj came up with a couple of superb catches, one a fairly simple one and the other wow, a skier - he kept his nerve and caught the glider pretty neatly!! Again Krishna with his smooth and steady run-up checked-in his venomously fired in-swingers and curtained their innings!!

Oh YES!!! WE HAVE WON!!! It took a few moments for some of us to realize our win!! Thus the day's match was a good one with a good-win!! Ofcourse, our other default things like Cold buttermilk, Rosemilk, water packet, a marginal defeat, misfield, dropped catches did present as well!!

But end of the match, all our physical bodies had a good pain and the muscles facing a stressful strain - which really made us feel happy!!!

Smiles!!

Hari Kalyanam - The CROWD said it all!!

Not many of my close ones wouldn't be aware that I am an introvert. One of my very best friends (who is now no more) manifested to me that I am one (as one ;-)). After all, world without friends just could not be dwelt isn't it?

OK., inspite of being an 'I', I have the pride of knowing most persons around (or distant to) me. There are countable folks whom I dont know in my company in our facility. Till I met Hari, I was thinking I am the only person who has this 'popular' quality. However, the day I met this humble chap, I agree, I need to throw off my cap. He knew almost everyone in the floor, facility, company yet, wouldnt project as though. Quite opposite to me, just boasting around by explicitly saying a hi, a broad smile (or a grin), a pat (or a tap) to the people coming around... He keeps his calm and just a simple heartly smile on people!! Much younger to me but I know I have few lessons to be learnt from this guy... Hari getting married now is quite irrelevant to the context of the previous sentence. :-D. I have my ATL for all that!!

We (The APS mates, Hari's friends like Bubbling Badri, Pons, Kodaikanal Andrews etc) all planned to leave office at 6 PM and to ardently demonstrate that we are 'hard-coded' desi Indians, we started around 6:54 PM, the delay primarily due to my dragging conversation with TM regarding a couple of issues.

I never knew Poonamallee was this much a biiiiig place.... Almost around 40% of our travel distance covered in the Poonamallee area itself. Badri as usual, geared his throttle too much and almost touched the boundary of Sriperumbudhur before being stopped by one of our phone calls... Somehow all of us got together in front of the marriage hall. As usual, we always give preferences to the life energy of every living being - Food... Delicious kalyana saapadu!! We felt wishing the couple without any hunger will make the wishes more powerful... So started our hunt!

What to say?? What to blog?? Already a thump of people had decided the same like us... The crowd neverthless to say, I began to feel like as if I am in a Temple during a Thiruvizha season. Somehow, we were just not ready to give up... Had a verrrry gooooooood food after a verrry verrrrry loooooong wait!! Especially the mushromm chops and rasam saadham wow!!! Delicious they were. Shouldnt miss to mention the cashew pakkoda - Simply toothsome... Curd rice, as always yummmy!! How great it would have been if alone we had the food in a leisure manner, sitting instead of standing like a fast food style...

Went upstairs and joined another queue to meet and wish the couple and did so... I did feel this kind of receptions are a bit too much especially for the new couple. Hours and hours of standing and recieving gifts and handshakes and momentarily at times becoming like IA air-hostess with some ready-made smiles. Shouldn't there be some change in this approach??

Light music by Abhaswaram Ramji. Kids so casually and enjoyingly vocalizing difficult nos., Their expressions along with the voice is a big +... Sanjay (no, the last name is not Mitra - it is Ramji) recognized me and we had a chit-chat for a minute, both of us knowing fully well that this is absolutely a formality talk... (reference to my first paragraph in this post)

OK. Wished Mrs and Mr. Hari and tried to smile for the clik-cliks. Then started our way back... Got a fruit salad and came out. I need to admit, I remember only one piece of the fruits touched my mouth...

Then, we, APS folks, started to home. Believe me guys, backing to home!!!

Fine, getting late for office. Got to test my application in Arlington (name is so sweet isnt it) DB. Got to leave...

Love all....

Spiritual Romance - Again!!

Got up in the noon and rushed for office, all my family people thinking me as the Atlas of GM carrying the entire New GM division on my shoulders... I never break into others' hopes or beliefs!!

Going back to the morning ride to the temple, yes, we reached the temple and had a facewash in the temple and dipped ourselves inside the temple. The temple, in the early morning is churning with peace, calm and beauty. A serene tranquility absorbs you once you enter inside this...

We had a long wait before the special pooja / archana due to the morning formalities for the deity got over. In the meanwhile I run through the Paasuram done by ThiruMangai Azhwar on the inner walls of the outer pragaram in the Temple. Goshhhh... it was so beautiful, innovative and you know what, it does have a good percentage of nice erotic lines as well!!! The work is given as a narration of mother whose Girl is badly disturbed by the seperation with the Lord (who in turn happens to be Her Companion ;-) )  Do have a read!! If I find an online link for the Paasuram, would post here...

The pooja that we were about to do is something like a counter for some Dhosham in our Star Divinition i.e. Jaadhakam, so that the pp (pooja performer) gets married sooon!! Hold, I am not blushing!! My mom after doing pretty some permutations and combinations was very keen in doing it so that I be(come) the product of Wedlock! She is simply not aware that the product would always be zero if one of the nos. is zero... ;-)
Coming back to the temple, had a Dharshan of Lord once the screen is opened. Ohhh My Goddd, guys, they say this is the officiated temple for those who are, to be married and they will get married immediately if they come here. But what I really feel is, this is the temple for those who 'got married' and the logical literature taught here is to how to be for each other with your better-half/spouse/GF/fiancé etc... The very dharshan makes us enlightened on how to treat and how to be with your companion!

Lord (who is in the form of Varahar) holding Thaayar (AkilaValli Thaayar) in His hands and supporting Her on His strong and large thighs and Thaayar, so close to Him looks to be listening keenly and enjoyingly - it looks soooooo romantic, so intimate and so lovely... They said Perumal is teaching Thaayar the principles - my dirty mind immediately thought what kind of principles could be thought at this pose!!! ;-)

If you take a second look, yes, it gives us more meanings, more realizations - A man holding the girl of  his life and saying - 'Hey I am here' - and a silent emotional transaction which reveals the truth - and the posture of Thaayar, hmmm, a typical Indian Great Homemaker - just enjoying the strong Hold of Her Man (who is a not of a mankind ofcourse), paying full attention to what the say is all about - and ofcourse, the left Leg of Perumal resting on His prescribed bed - Adhisesha (now the Holy Snake in a different posture!!) - All together keeps you mesmerized!!

Do visit this amazing temple / place guys!! Not only to AkilaValli, Varahas does have some sweet lessons for us as well!!!

And, as I always say, early morning ride to this place is a must... Otherwise, be prepared to face the humid burns... ;-)
Signing off - Got to start...

Next post is on Hari's wedlock and delicious dinner and the terrific (terrible) crowd in the marriage!!

Love all...

ThiruVidandhai, The Spiritual Romance...

Its 10:45 AM with summer sun burning out there and am cuddling with my system with a drowsy state... Got up so early (4:15 AM), finished the pooja and started for Nithya Kalyana Perumal Temple in Thiruvidandhai with mom... A nice stretched 45 km drive from Anna Nagar, (ok, for my APS folks, 44.5 km from NSK Nagar). Started around 5:45 just after finishing an aroma checked coffee...

Yes, it is really a wonderful drive in the morning, as I always used to say, morning especially early morning stuffs are always enchanting and exciting with the climate soothing you and not much traffic to hold you on and etc..

Reached the temple around 7 AM and had a face wash in the Temple Pond outside. Fine, even writing about the facee wassrfh ias noht stoapping me fffrrim sliipeepng. Gooooo nighhhhh guyzzzzzzzzzzz., zzzzzzzzzz

Love, V......................

Thats another looooong day!!

Its been pretty long since I had been slogged like the day on which I am blogging this... It started with a call with GB for running some SSIS scripts in Production. He made me do that and things were pretty smooth...! And, should never miss to jot down this - the ride in the morning from home to office... The early morning ride with Hanuman Chalisa in my head-set, wow, Greg, you made me enthralling in SSIS and your meetnig invite made me enlightened!! Try this out guyz, ride along in your two-wheeler on a very early morning when the darkness is fading away and the Sun is creeping its dim brightness, WOW, never miss this guys...! (Your favorite song in your headphones along the ride would be a pine cake dipped in honey...)

Once the meeting is done, I started to look on some of my perennial pending issues and lo, thats where I started to feel the same kind of experience I used to feel in my schooldays during the Social Sciences period while the teacher momentarily becomes mother of the entire class by his lullaby reading of the civics text! I never had any cough syrup at alll... I liked that experience soooo much but could not enjoy a bit at all....

Somehow kept chasing that away and had my breakfast... Krishna's company made me a little better, no, much better! And today Krishna had a tough time with his unknown new 'neighbouring' collegue, seems he has good patience - for if I would have been in his place so many times I would shouted atleast at my mind level...

A very good friend of mine got engaged but her face just not showing any sort of signs of that change. Totally disinterested she is... God give her some good emotions in her face and make her blush!! I am sure you will since she is good and smart enough to handle the future keeping in mind that the handling is done by You!!

Ok guys, nothing more special today... Started collecting money for Hari's marriage and a good collection been done till!! ;-) Tomorrow need to go to the reception, a well awaited one, not only for my best friend's marriage reception, the reception music is by Abhashwaram Ramji, one of my most favorites!!!

And also got to start with mom tomorrow early morning... Hmmm.... Lets check!!!

Love all!!

IPL - Integrated Politics League!!!

Goddamn.... I know if certain things taken too playfully, can bring few troubles... But never know to this much percent of reality that a play of sport can bring people this much of serious troubles!! You guessed it rite - Shashi Tharoor would for sure never thought that a 40 over game would spoil his limelight like this... If we are thinking that Dhoni, Sachin or Kallis playing at their best in this tournament, these events re-remind us that Money is the one thats playing its best shot..!!!

And seeing some of the results of the game turning the tables around, makes me feel that, are the batsmen playing the shot based on the bowler's swing or based on the dealer's magic ring???

Whatsoever, lets keep enjoying the sport in a political manner and the politics in a sportive attitude, as we Indians always used to be and do!! :-)

Bugging bugs...

Hot Sunday, generally I hate to come out of my room with my Pentium box and the two fans turned on, (might go for a Voltas or Samsung chill unit this month) ;-) but I HAD to, since I am yet to complete my tasks for the 2.3 release... These releases reminding me of the quarterly, half-yearly and annual exams in my school. Atleast we used to get jiggling holidays after the trembling exams...

And now it seems the issue is actually something that relate with the DB design that requires a change in the size of a particular field....

Mailed to the SME regarding this... Now, leaving home... Planning to eat out since mom is yet to come home....

Chal, see you then...

Vith Love... ;-)

Leaving to Office - Yes, I know its a sunday!!

The code cut-off being postponed (to my good) to Monday, I have few pending tasks to be completed in it as well... Especially ergonomically... ;-)

Well, yes, I had been there yesterday but unable to complete it since the unavailability of the DB Server where in I have set up the data for my issues that are pending... Got to check whether it is available now...

Then, mom had gone to Kanchipuram for some temple commitments, dad and Saravana in company with her leaving my uncle in the company...

I am sure something is wrong with my new monitor or something is not correct with the installation..., I dont get the same clarity that I wish for... Got to check out...

See you in a while...

Love...

Bye to Buzz n Logging to Blogging!!!

You need someone with whom you can share things with rite? Thats what I had been doing all time on Google Buzz... But due to few uncertain reasons I have for time being stopped buzzing around. Not sure whether that 'time being' would be forever as well... So, err, but where on earth I need to pour out my emotions or impressions or inspirations??? Where do I need to go and say that whether I watch or not, the presence of IPL makes me excited..., to whom I could tell AmpaSkyWalk is no better than City Centre but Priya VillageRoad cinemas proving to be world class quality? To whom should I crib that the kind of work I do at work just not taking me to places?? To whom should I comment about the girl sitting opposite to my Sustain Brother is becoming better and better in her beauty every day and the little mole on her nose-tip adds up a notch to her appealing??

So, using the blogspot as the Wilson Basket Ball for Tom Hanks in Cast Away... :-)

Thanks to Google Blogs and the creator of it, I dont have any patience to google out the name of the creator, but pass on my credits and gratitude to him/her!! Ofcourse there are some very dark areas that may disturb the viewers, readers, listeners which may contain some violent, adult content which would make their way only in my personal journal... Avoiding them in the blogs for security reasons!! :-D

Lets blog and hey blog, be ready to be God, for both of you just keep listening for any non-sense I scribble!!!
