B to the A to the B to the A - BABA (travels)

I write this post as I recover from my the extreme trauma that I was put thru during my travel to Pune ... it was kullu's wedding , my roommate for an yer.. my neighbour for another 3 years ... I had to go.. this would be my closest encounter with this phenomenon called wedding...there was no second thots about that ... other ppl from my college MY Group were coming too - karam, datar, sunia, suhas (shemdia), arshad .... almost my full group - the weekend in Barneys words was gonna be "LEGEND- wait for it wait for it -- DARYYY ..." - no way i hell was i gonna miss this trip to Pune..
and well tats wat the trip to Pune turned out to be .. :) ... and i mean literally the road trip from Indore to Pune in this god forsaken fckedup bloody jhatka gadi (bullock cart) in the costume of a bus owned by this SOB called BABA was like travelling thru hell to get to wat was heaven ...
it all started badly.. as after work on thursay I was plannin to leave Indore by a decent Volvo at 8.30 (and as usual I had successfully procrastinated my travel booking to the last fw hours for which i thank god) - and this volvo got cancelled... after having searched quiet sometime to find an alternate bus to travel and after having almost given up all hope of finding one tat nite, we (me and my team here in Indore) went to one last travel agent (who is another fckin SOB)who lied to me that there is one last bus to DIRECT to pune at 9.00 in the nite... and well my sad journey to Pune started off all wrong rite from the time the bus left the place half an hour late ...
i guess the ppl who made the bus either forgot to put shock absorbers (or leaf springs as I know now) in the bus or that SOB who owned these buses in all probability sold them off for a few extra bucks ... the whole bus wud jump a few meters above the ground every time it went over a pebble a few millimeters thick ... i was given a sleeper - forget sleeping there it was impossible even to sit straight man ...
and my story just gets better... the agent at indore had assured me that the bus wud reach Pune at 10.00 Am the next day morning.. forget pune the Bus got only upto Shirdi (I had no intention of getting there i swear) at 9.00 AM (still another 200 kms from Pune) and to top it off the driver tells me tats where his journey ends and so does mine- so sirji please find another bus to get to Pune - tata byebye go screw urself sirji ....
I had a good mind to find a bat and traash the whole goddam bus down and yell at the top my voice.. but the holy city of Shirdi and all the positive energy around helped me restrain myself.. and ya i managed to find another bus to Pune with in the next 15 min (in btw i also managed to get back 130 bucks from the travel agency :P) ... and then the next sequence of lies started - the bus guys said pune in 4-4.5 hrs ... 9.30 +4.5 i thot to myself max 2.00 in the afternoon ... 3.30 was when i got off at Pune ... i had spend a solid 3 hrs sitting beside the lovely and charming driver and another 2.5 hrs at the bus door listenin to the painfully irritating helper kid .. so i had successfully spent 17 hrs travellin in a bus
but then only thot that kept running thru my head thru this whole sojourn were the thots of the weekend wit ppl I would get to meet after 5 years, of how ppl would look after 5 yrs, of wat had happened in their lives in these 5 yrs - memories of my 4 years at matunga kept rushing back.
I ll always crib and cry and ya if given a chance burn down BABA travels for having duped me ... but I wud also give him a small little thank you for having forced upon me all these thots thru the unwantedly long journey ....

and finally - thnk u guys for havign turned up in numbers and for all of u who missed this reunion - better not miss it next time .... and ya Rahul Best of Luck mate and congrats ..

A Lawyer for a Terrorist ?

People were murdered in cold blood. Bombay was taken hostage for 3 days .... more than 250 ppl died ... 2 NSG commandos , 16 policemen and 4 top cops were sacrificed in the process.....
10 terrorists taken down in exchange and one caught red Handed in the act... over the last couple of days this boy from pakistan who struck terror here has been singing like a bird and has confessed to everything that went into planning and executing this terror attack... and after all this wat happens..?

There is a debate on whether this mass murderer be given a lawyer and then let law take its course..? Wat level of stupididty is this .. ? We are not talking about a guy who becasue of personal vengeance went on to kill another human or a murder that has happened as a part of a gang war... these people attacked something much bigger than an individual or group of people.. they attacked our country. they killed innocent civilians in cold blood. they attacked and almost succeeded in killing the very spirit of our country ...

and there are ppl - ppl of the calibre and stature of Ram Jethmalani who are on TV arguing that Law of the Land is above all and should take its course... Does he mean that these terrorists and the guy who murders another person for money are the same? It is very nice to show to the world that we are a law-abiding peaceful nation on one hand. But then does that help us in any way? The people who attacked our parliament, our very symbol of democracy, were taken to court charged wit capital punishment..and now he still lives on with the order having being stayed... is this wat we want ??
Well as an individual I have the right to question why my hard earned money is being spent on maintaining these scums..?arent there better ways to spend the tax am paying..? to start with y doesnt the government get rid of these ppl and use my money to pay the defence and Police departments better?

They say that Law is blind- and hence equal to all. but then there are somthings which are bigger than the Law and I hope ppl realise and recognize this and set and example that somethings are above the law and will be dealt wit accordingly - a man like Kasab doesnt deserve to be taken to court ....
