- Cold Shouldered Day
Its -8 Deg C outside. - Law Day: Murphy's law (from a frustrated techie).
Every godamned item can get messed up in every godamed way if there is any godamned oppurtunity. Side affects include 20 hr work days!! - Racist Day: Overheard (at the coffee machine).
Asian She: How long have you dated him (Asian He) ?
American She: Ever since he was pathetically trying to get a beautiful girl friend, for a change!
If you ask me, the dumb guy got lucky! She had attitude, but damn, was she hot! - Leap Day:
Noticed that today is Leap Day of the Leap Year. No wonder, I was feeling like leaping out of the 15th Floor, without parachutes, during the whole godamned day!

Timing
The Irony of it was hilarious.
I have an Infy Titan Watch (courtesy of Billion Dollar celebration circa 2004). The leather strap had come loose a couple of months back. Without a device to measure time, I was left with the hardship of fishing out my mobile from my hipster to see time. Remind you, that means removing the glove in negitive celsius temperature with wind chill. The option of getting another watch was dismissed as I perfer not having a "step-watch". But looking at the half strapped watch lying next to my wallet every morning, did not help ease my time management.
Finally, after making it through my to-do list, the day arrived when all final ingredients were in place for me to "save my time and effort" in looking "for time". I was trying to loop the strap by dislodging the spring loaded restrictor (Please pardon my self terminology) with the watch angled down.
At that moment, two incidents occured, leading me to wonder about what destiny has in store for me.
Incident 1: The dormant restrictor sprung in the other direction leading me in a half hour quest in retrieving it. I was fortunate to hear the sound on its rebound from the blinds thereby restricting my probability search to that part of the carpeted bedroom. Wierd.
Incident 2: After spending another half hour in aligning, super gluing and replacing the restrictor ( Phew! ), I noticed that the time was still in DST. While changing the setting with just 3 button punches, the battery gave out! What horrible bad timing! Wierder still.
The irony of the whole situation was that I wasted one hour of my time trying to save time and ended up in still losing the time I was trying to save and the watch itself!

The AXE Effect : The Truth
Scene : I am shopping for an AXE shower gel, wanting "Kilo" fragnance but ending up choosing between "Boost", "Phoenix", "Snake Peel". I am half kneeling on the ground near the corner of the ailse, trying to make a choice.
Enter: In comes an average looking white American brunette, in her mid 20's, in a white T-shirt and blue jeans, humming and stepping to a song playing in the supermarket, with her boy-friend in tow.
Looking at her walk on the ailse (like a rampwalk of a model), I half smiled to myself (amused at the girlishness of the moment) and continued with my quest, with an AXE shower gel in each hand. She saw me see her and half smile but kept on going. The savvy lady, noticed what I was doing and while passing me from behind, passed a comment, "Trust me, it doesn't work!!", and turned into the next ailse!
I walk left wondering, "Did she really tell that to me?!", with my half smile turning into a full one.
AXE, just these words for you. "They know. They also know that we still hope."

Static Electricity
Wearing ear phones without insulation ( the plastic cups or sponge ) + lying in bed on an artificial fur blanket on a cold winter morning/afternoon + browsing on laptop with ear phones + snuggling in bed = Static Electricity discharge in ears!!
Its hilarious, ticklish and downright lazy!

Frozen Grand Central
Imagine what would happen if 207 people frozen in their tracks in a railway station?
One such incident at Grand Central, Subway station in New York.
Kudos to the originality of the idea!!
