Secunderabad.


after all these mad scribblings are about good bad and searches!

Good. I made time to visit another of my Secunerabad journey.
I made a file at yahoo in.geocities.
I quote it here:

GOPAL and SHERLOCKHOMES.

This one is about a journey from HUBLI to SECUNDERABAD. When Sr.DAO asked about the intents placed with COS

For 3 numbers DOT Matrix printer and one scanner, I could not get the reference immediately. Out of sheer “fright” I undertook this journey.

I boarded HariPriya express (Train No 7316) on 9.10.2001 Tuesday. The bearded man (our Sr.DAO Mr.S.Vivekanand) was kind enough to use his good office to arrange berth No. 1 in Haripriya. No doubt the train started at Hubli well in time.

There was Gopal. The black stout smiling man from EMD/LocoShed/Hubli was my company in the train. When I told him my woe, he gave me confidence that he will take care of that.

On Wednesday, (10.10.2001) when Haripriya merged with Rayalaseema express (Train No.7430) and when I was in the toilet shaving, using tooth paste as shaving cream I noticed that we were still in Raichur.

Gopal gave chappathis and groundnuts for breakfast. We reached Begaumpet at about 13.00hrs. (almost 4 hours late beyond the scheduled time) . I could complete the mission to vanish my fright away, during the afternoon session.

Okay, let me cut short chronicling this journey within another few sentences. Gopal helped me. I got my reference. I returned back by train no 7003(Dharmavaram Express). There was a new three tier AC coach. (coach No 01116, built at RCF kapurtala during July 2001) I bought seethapalam for the family.(Gopal picked up the fruits from the vendor for me).

Sherlock homes (click here to see a web page of Sherlock homes) was the book that accompanied me in this journey apart from Gopal.

It was a jorney during 2001, second one during 2001 both the occassions on official trips.


I will not have this web address from 26th October:

Relevant skill The one skill that will probably never go out of fashion is the skill to be able to acquire new skills BY VARALOTTI RENGASAMY "Ma, why do we have such long legs?" a baby camel once asked his mother. "So that we can keep our legs firmly in the desert sand and walk with ease," the mother replied. "And why the big hump at the back?" "We walk in deserts and may go days on end without water. We store our water there in that hump, dear." "And what are these thick, long eye-lashes for?" "To prevent the desert sand from hurting our eyes especially when there are sand storms." Another dozen questions in the same vein were rationally answered by the mother camel. And then came the unanswerable last question: "Then what the hell are we doing in the Mysore Zoo?" Most of our students, especially those coming out of engineering colleges, are like these camels — imprisoned in the wrong place with irrelevant skill-set...

Draft not saved

how is this? Yesterday, I wrote a lengthy blog, taking some inspiration from my friend here. Brett. Forgot to give it a title, saved as a draft. And lo, the entry was not saved. Wrote, about the absence of my mother and my sons mother. Told in the blog that we had a lot of time of our own. Just want to enclose a sound, where I was reading something about shyness in Tamil to my son (recorded on 25-12-2010 ) questions.amr

Reading quotations for motivation. Good or Bad?

Image
after all these mad scribblings are about good bad and searches! Reading too many quotations sometimes is like over eating. The mind becomes unclear and wanders restless...(sometimes becoming very blank) It is the stage when I feel: 'reading quotations is useless' Some time ago I made an attempt to have just four quotations ready - just like some instant energy giver - to motivate me any time. Searching quotations, with the aim to short list for instant energy giving - the mind was blocked - making myself to quote: "reading quotations is of no benefit" At this stage I thought, let me have one quotation - just one - to motivate me any time....... I got this one: Never take life seriously. Nobody gets out alive anyway. (This one is from twitter and can attribute the credit to   http://twitter.com/StephenRPohlit/status/18170516543  and  http://twitter.com/wipoolplayer/status/16918252401 ) At this stage, I get an idea why not make some subsidiary ...
