Hilarious Dilbert today!!
Gem from Akbar Ilahabadi !
(Unbelievably enough, he was a sessions judge at Allahabad High Court at the turn of the twentieth century).
“Udhar zulfon mein kangi ho rahi hai, kham nikalta hai
Idhar ruk ruk key, khnich khnich key hamara dam nikalta hai
Ilahi khair ho, uljhan pe uljhan parti jati hai
Na un ka kham nikalta hai, na hamara dam nikalta hai”
Intersection Point in Chicago! Prasad Sista!!
It was a long day in Chicago… In fact too long. But it is always well that ends well!! After literally 10 hours of straight meetings, I was done for the day dog tired. But there was always time to call up a old friend from the past. Plus I had to have dinner and I hate eating by myself.
And that is how Prasad Sista and I found ourselves together 12 years after our last meeting when he came to pick me up from the hotel to go for dinner. We were in the same college back in India (although I suspect when I went to college, he had barely learnt how to spell “college”). And then we worked together for a few years in the same company.
That was a evening of a lot of laughter. Of the “Kadi” jokes of IIT Chennai and the really really funny incidents from i2 days. I have always thought that I have been blessed to work side by side with some great people. But the fact that they still remember me and actually want to meet me makes me feel very special. Especially when that person is as great a guy as Prasad Sista!!!
Awesome Table design

The Third Eye: The early bird etc etc etc
To all my ornithologist friends who suggested the bird must be a robin or “shalik” (I am ignoring the suggestion of a Penguin đŸ™‚ ), now, tell me what worm is this Robin or “shalik” eating? The bird was very brave. It allowed me to come within ten meters of it in a completely open field as it pulled this worm out of the ground…
