Who say its recession in US… it’s a fallacy…

0 People commented...
Last week I and my friend (same friend who had just got a license to drive “my friend dadooo”) so just to have to long drive and to gather some more driving experience we set for a shopping mall (with intension not to buy anything :-0)

It’s a 60miles drive to “Woodbury mall” is had got a great landscape (located it between mountains and it does have some 130+ brand store)… so we reached this place and were amazed to see the crowd…. It took more then 45+ mins to find a parking spot… (in spite is having 75 allays which can hold some 30-40 cars but still we were searching for parking… it like all wanted to spend money and shop till drop (not including 2 of us) does this symbolize that US is in recession…

And the best scene was outside outlet of “COACH” the store had so many shoppers already inside that they had to close the front door… and you can see already a big queue was forming outside to enter the store…. I was never able to find my people were fanatic to buy from COACH, and this I saw another waiting line outside one more store (forgot to take a pic of that)

So next time when ever one do hear… Customer confidence is down in US, Shopping Mall is facing the pinch due to recession… I know what the truth is...

I assumed that recession would mean:
- Less people going for shopping (people not spending fewer)
- Less Traffic on roads (people staying at home to save)

Weird Smells (radio channel quiz)

1 People commented...
Lately I have started listening to radio (actually its my morning alarm clock) which helps me sacrifice my bed every morning (it do start at 7:am and my next 30-45 mins I manage to sacrifice my bed J) it is a real tough fight every single day(specially week days)


Every day this host comes up with some sort of quiz of question and wait for people to call back with the view and comments.

Some time over the week, this fellow asked to his partner “Tell me the weird smell, that you love and drives you crazy”

She replied : Do you intend to fart.. he replied, not that every day I do…

Okay then they were serious and telling there replied few of that I remember

- Smell of crayons
- Smell of coffee bean
- Smell of Gasoline(Petrol as we do call in India )

Ever few listeners called back and replied

- A lady told smell of Tide (detergent soap) (I guess she do not work in a Laundromat)

I also was running down my own list

- During my childhood days I loved smell of petrol, whenever I used to pass my Petrol station I used to literally wait and take few long breath J
- Then I do love the smell of Marker pen (actually the spirit)
- When it rains for the first time…

I guess all would have some or the other weird smell weakness, do comment you’re your irresistible weakness :-0

Grilling and b’day cake…

0 People commented...
Two weeks back we (our gang) celebrated Tridib d’bay… it ended in way more then perfect.. as we had planned for doing grilling and the b’day party along with it…

B’day Cake: it was a chocolate Mocha cake and as usual we forgot to get some candle, so ended up with large fragrance candle… and we it was way to good decorated (trust me any one would desire for such a cake)

Grilling: This is my second summer in US, and we all wanted to do grilling from long time… during out last year trip the house which we had rented had a grill in the back yard we all enjoyed it… but never got a chance to try out… This we ended up buying a small grill and ended up cooking it was way to great, as food was prepared on charcoal smoke it has a different taste… we grilled a lot of meat, corn.. and we party whole night…

Slumdog Millionaire:Not a nice story... bad part -- Part II

0 People commented...
Last week, i happen to read that child artist "Azharuddin Ismail" who was part of Slumdog millionaire house was demolished by Anti-Slum in Mumbai... and i guess many people would have felt really bad that, the child artist were still in rags after the movie churning a ton of money...
But today i did see again an article from Director "Danny Boyle" that he would be visiting to India just to check back on this children state... And i wish those kids do get a better standard of living and education

The last post was full on against the director / producers, and this post is more like a ripple effect (Thanks to Newton I am was able to phase this – Every action has opposite reaction)
