Helmets are a must

A simply amazing pic and a relevant post from this link wrt helmets. Even though I don’t like usage of religious symbols, this one hits the nail on the head and does a good job of conveying the message.( Tagged under humour too)

Sutta n Dope; I can tell u 'ONE' reason for which guys turn up to these


Hello! What I’m going to write may be controversial & may sent u into tizzy but with what I have seen in reality, that’s one reason which ‘IS TRUE n PRAGMATIC’ (though after reading through, I still hope that you are right…not to smoke, not to dope).



First of all! its important to know

‘WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU INSERT THAT LEAN FAG STICK INTO YOUR MOUTH n START HAVING THOSE SMOKY PUFFS?’

In layman terms, smoking gives a relaxation to your mind, you become somewhat more alert & conscious and your power of visualization/thinking/dreaming gets diminished partially (all these things won’t be noticed to a chain smoker). If you are a non-smoker (non-chain smoker) or a starter, you will realize though it may not be instantaneous.

So, is there a reason which can explain cogently whether it’s worth enough to be a smoker INSPITE of all those numerous and detrimental diseases (see any anti-smoking book or browse any website n u will meet gamut of diseases ranges from simple coughing to deleterious cancers). You may think NO, but still there is ONE.

The situation where you can find a supportive answer is when you are depressed (cause of depression may vary from person to person). Justification of reason – We all know suicides are very common symptoms of extreme depression. All suiciders go into deep profound depression owing to repetitive thinking about a particular incident. Now, if at that moment, if they indulge themselves in an activity (or vice versa) which can remove their attention from that incident, that suicide will surely be averted. This is where sutta/dope comes. Sutta/Dope diverts your thinking power deliberately (in case of Sutta, the effect is very minute whereas Dope effect are variable). And if by doing these, you are saving yourself from committing suicides…then…BUT…in the hiding are concealed many dangers.

U may save yourself but this won’t help you often and also this could pave the way to many repercussions. Let assume you are depressed quite often, then (as earlier) you start having your antidote to depression problems (sutta/dope) very frequently…congratulations…you just entered the HELL community of tobacco addicts. Also, practically speaking as mentioned earlier addicts/chain smokers don’t get the same FEEL of relaxation through smoking. If you are depressed that often, consult medical science.

The key which lies here is
‘HOW MENTALLY SOUND PERSON YOU ARE n HOW STOICAL YOU ARE?’
Smoke may help you once but once you get into that vicious cycle of that ‘UNREAL’ world of smoke, coming back is damn difficult.

Remember:
“Smoke is weightless and shapeless” …all you get is ostentatious with fake relieve.

you. If you come back home smelling women, your wife will get angry
for sure and she might even not talk to you again.
Draw! (it depends on your point of view...)

night and you don't have to drive anywhere!

1 point for women!

* The older beer is, the better.

1 point for beer!

* Many beers can make you see UFO's. Many women can make you see
God!

If you're a woman and getting angry, think that a beer wouldn't.

Another point for beer! Final score: 10 to 6.

ICICI BANK --"barosa hai"

Rajiv and Mona are flying to Australia for a two-week vacation to celebrate their 40th anniversary.

Suddenly, over the public address system, the Captain announces, "Ladies and Gentlemen, I am afraid I have some very bad news. Our engines have ceased functioning and we will attempt an emergency landing. Luckily, I see an uncharted island below us and we should be able to land on the beach. However, the odds are that we may never be rescued and will have to live on the island for the rest of our lives!"

Thanks to the skill of the flight crew, the plane lands safely on the island.

An hour later Rajiv turns to his wife and asks, "Mona, did we pay our Rs 5lakh deposit cheque yet to ICICI Bank?"

"No, sweetheart," she responds.

Rajiv, still shaken from the crash landing, then asks, "Mona, did we pay our ICICI Bank Master card yet?"

"Oh no! I'm sorry. I forgot to send the cheque," she says.

"One last thing, Mona. Did you remember to send cheques for the auto loan to them too this month?" he asks.

"Oh, forgive me, Rajiv," begged Mona. "I didn't send that one, either."

Rajiv grabs her and gives her the biggest kiss in 40 years. Mona pulls away and asks him, "So, why did you kiss me?"

Rajiv answers, "They'll find us!"

Tata sky --"the jingalala of ur money"


The real story of almost all the companies in the service industry in India. Now Tata Sky has upped their monthly rental to Rs 300 i.e. a 50% increase from the previous one. Andthey had been telling us all along that the increase will not bedrastic. Need to find out, whats more in the store for the consumers.

Someone explain why is the voucher priced at Rs 550 when the subscription charges are Rs 200 or Rs 300. It does not make sense because it cannot last for 2 months even. Or is it that eventually Tata Sky’s monthly subscription rate will go up to Rs 550 and that is what was kept in mind while keeping the voucher price at 550??

All the customers are being taken for a ride here. All those who have purchased the Tata Sky subscription, have already paid Rs 3000 towards the set top box and installation charges and all that. Now if Tata Sky hikes their monthly rental to Rs 550 or more, what are you going to do. Your 3000 is already gone. and according to the fine print, you do not even own the STB and the dish.

Hello!! Wake up!!
We already know the service level of Tata in the cellphone and the broadband sector. Hundreds of people are crying to get their money back/pathetic services, callous attitude of the customer care, billing issues and you name it. Lets wait for some serious competiton. Dish TV is already a standard in pathetic services. Tata Sky is a touch better that most of the people have got their connections up and running very smoothly, and in good time. But its just few months old. Watch out for the surprises.
