OUR PERSONAL DATA

There is such a law as the Personal Data Protection Act.Basically,the essence of this law is that you are legally barred from infringing into anybodys privacy.Most religions teach us that somewhere in the universe there is a record of our deeds written in a book-good and bad.That somewhat is frightening to me personally.I think everyone knows that there is no such thing as a perfect record.Very certainly,mine is far from it.And if I had a chance in recording it myself,I can omit all the embarassing details.Whichever way this life ends,I think in the end,it is going to be somewhat similar to our Courtrooms-Guilty as Charged.I hope mine says- Sentence Commuted!And may your sentence,too!

MY POSSIBLE BRIDE

Since I believe I am pass my prime,a dear friend suggested I consider a Mail Order Bride.Maybe for most bachelors my age,this is the most practical option.No time wasted on romantic niceties,no emotional exhaustion of trying to impress your fair lady,no time wasted getting ready for dates on silly and noisy movies and expensive dinners.Right,this is the perfect solution.

But the dreaded part is when the ladies relatives start visiting you- usually a large clan speaking unheard of,strange mountain dialects and whose favourite dish is dried wild boar intestines eaten with green noodles and pickled chicken feet. That is the time when you have to get a big stick and start looking for the friend who recommended this option. Vijay - The Midnight Owl

GRADES

Those are really beautiful legs.I would grade them as an 8/10- a Grade A category. but since the face is not revealed to us- we have to revert to our own observations in society.Because those who have great legs usually possess a face which comes around 2/10.This is the way nature has tried to compensate those who have less than pleasant appearances.

Anyway,I certainly hope the above pair of legs does not belong to a tranvestite.

TIME OUT

There are at least 3 moments in time when you have to literally sit before a fan to cool off.

1.When you are really angry because after all the heated arguments they still could not see your point of view. You have wasted your breath and energy trying to convince the other person.Your opponent happens to have a skull made of solid steel.

2.When you have managed to cover up your latest mess and suceeded in avoiding responsibility.

3.Unwittingly,and suddenly your computer flashes a pornographic scene out of nowhere just when your Boss walks in and you know no amount of explanation will convince him.

PANICKY

I dont know about you but I could get panicky whan a lady looks at me like this.It's usually time to make a very quiet exit quickly. Vijay- The Midnight Owl

DOES THIS HAPPEN?

I have been in a few relationships myself but I cannot recall anytime in my life when I was close to tears over someone I missed.To be frank,for me it is usually a relief to get away from whoever is closer to you.I hate the clatter of ladies-especially if it is non-stop like my mother and granny's.During those times,I could almost feel like putting some rat poison in my coffee and ending it all.I love the song" Everybody needs some time, away from each other".Now that songwriter is telling us the truth.So unlike the Indian songs.Sometimes they pour petrol on themselves and end their lives because the lover was unavailable.Take my advice. Say Good Riddance.Certainly other prospects will appear in due time

THE FACADE.

We devise many ways to diminish the boredom and the monotony that confront us daily.If we in somebody's employment and the Boss is around,your personal freedom to breathe easily is somewhat restricted.In some offices,the most dreaded words are "Here Comes The Boss".So you got to work or at least seem to be working on your computer.And herein lies our genius to kill the dreariness.There are a number of computer games that come with a special feature called the "Boss Key".If you are playing a game,or surfing the Internet,when you are supposed to be working and the Boss walks in,you quickly strike the Boss Key.Your Computer screen changes immediately,hiding what you have been up to.

But the real talent is to put on a completely innocent face whan the Boss actually walks up to our table.

FLAUNTING

To put on our best is great, to be looked up and admired,to be the centre of attention.But take care not to flaunt yourself overly.Everyones needs to feel appreciated.Sometimes, a simple greeting is sufficient.It is very affirming for the lonely man or woman.They feel respected and accepted.But in real life, some are not endowed with rainbow colours and all the attention centres around the peacock in the office.Do something special today.Say "hello" to the least impressive person,usually the Plain Jane or the guy with shabby clothes.Being ignored is terrible and they usually suffer in silence.Let their silence break into a smile by what you say today.

BEWARE

Of course,manipulating is wrong although it is almost impossible today without being one.A certain degree of manipulation is allright,provided it does not harm anyone or promotes our own course but for the sake of laying down arms.After all,the other word for manupulation is diplomacy.This is a very deft game.If found out,we will inevitably become the object of scorn and resentment. But manupulation that goes on the pubs is dangerous.You arrive,and suddenly you are surrounded by 1 or 2 gorgeous beauties with lovely smiles.Be unguarded at that moment and you will pay the price literally.They are the masters at entangling men with bulging wallets.They literally weave a situation,like a spider weaves its web which is barely noticeable. Then fools walk in. Vijay- The Midnight Owl

A DANGEROUS ILLUSION

I guess we all had our best friends.But as we mature we learn the hard lessons of life-that relationships free from malice,envy.jealousy and are only found in books and movies.Everyone had been hurt by a friendship.Many people were moved to tears while watching the movie "Titanic"- especially the "You jump,I jump",the truth is,it's nothing but a piece of Crap churned out by Hollywood.In real life,you jump-I can wait here.And it's dangerous to have best friends.They tend to swallow you up alive,given the right circumstance.
