Hotel Kerala-fonia
By the Yeeguls
——————————————————-
On a dark city one-way
‘Nariyal Tel’ in my hair
Warm smell of avial
Rising up through the air
Up ahead in the distance
I saw a green tube light
My tongue grew heavy, and my stomach grew thin
I had to stop for a bite…
There he stood in the door way
Repairing the calling bell
And I was thinking to myself
This could be Ker-hella…
Oh! It is hell
Then he lit up a petromax
And cursed the electricity board away
There were some mallus down the corridor
Thought I heard them say
Welcome to the Hotel Kerala-fonia
Such a lousy place,
What a lousy place (background)
Such a lousy place
Many a bug at the Hotel Kerala-fonia
Any time of year
Any time of year (background)
A coil of Tortoise
You can find it here
The finger in his nose is definitely twisted
As three sneezes it sends
He makes a lot of weird, weird noises
When the finger bends
How they ‘kusthi’ in the courtyard
Sticky Mallu sweat
The man pleaded for mercy
While his wife whipped him with a belt
So I called up the deaf captain
Please tell me the time
He ran into
The kitchen and brought me beef fry, soda and lime
And still those voices were crying from far away
Wake you up in the middle of the night
Just to hear them pray
Save us from the Hotel Kerala-fonia
Such a lousy place,
What a lousy place (background)
Such a lousy place
Trying to live at the Hotel Kerala-fonia
No surprise
Those are real mice…
Of a dog’s size
The blind man was feeling
Yesterday’s sambhar on rice
And he said
We are all just pensioners here
In Silk Smitha-disguise
And in the dining chamber
We gathered for the feast
We stab it with our steely knives
But just can’t cut the meat
Last thing I remember
I was lying on the floor
The half eaten tapeworm in my snack made my tummy sore RelaxFwd Hotel
Kerala-fonia.ems said the moustached watchman
An enema you shall receive
They made me lie on my back
While my soul packed up to leave…
Welcome to the Hotel Kerala-fonia
Such a lousy place,
What a lousy place (background)
Such a lousy place

A Perfect Ending(take the headline sarcastically)
—————————————————————–
There was a boy called Ashay. Came to Sunny (and very hot) Cal from aamchi mumbai to see where his future takes him. Then he took a course called CSCI 585. And thats it!!. all his dreams are shattered!!!.
Isn’t that SAD? Well hell yeah, it is. Dr. Cyrus Shahabi has absolutely screwed (*cough cough*) my b**ls by setting a Final paper that was lengthy, tricky, harsh, irritating, bullshit, hogwash and all the other words which I cant think of right now.
End of the Story.
And in another story placed at this location, it seems that “The British prayers are getting outsourced to INDIA”. hehe.
“Religious services and prayers for the dead are being offshor-ed from the United Kingdom to India because of a lack of priests”.
Well to tell you guys frankly, I am just bored of this Outsourcing Saga now.
Just shut the f*ck up!!!.
The Indian media just knows how to over over-exaggerate issues that are raised in the WEST.
Rediff also has a special section on Outsourcing to India.
Now I am sure there will be many who will revolt to this and this might be an important issue to them, but dude/lady this is MY blog and I can write what I feel !!.
(well that Dr. Shahabi surely makes you angry :)) .

Ok!!
It seems Google has allowed some VERY LUCKY Blogger users have a first crack at their GMAIL service.
After seeing this story on /. , I naturally logged into by blog account to see whether I was one of the lucky ones. But as it always happens with my luck, I was not selected.
It seems, the lucky ones got this message:
“As an active Blogger user, we would like to invite you to be one of the first to try out Google’s new email service, Gmail
Would you like to give it a whirl? YES / NO”.
Duh!!!. I am an active user!!!, besides I can give u guys more feedback than some blondie jerk who just posts something about her hairdo everyday.
But anyways, this has just given me all the more reasons to shift to MovableType. That shud happen on a day when I am ultra enthu.
BTW, I also have decided to change the template of this page every month. So keep a lookout for May 1 when you might see some dashing design out here.

Well, I came across this PHP script which is so funny that I couldn’t stop mentioning about it here.
Its a script that translates any web page to your “own defined Slang Language”. the Script is available at http://jivetalker.co.uk.
Then Of Course, I had to Translate my baby love to “Gangsta Rap Slang”.
Wanna see the output? … here it is.
Isn’t that funny?

I must mention this!!
Do you know India is the only country in this world to use Voting Machines Instead of the orthodox (stupid) paper ballots?
America did have their try on it. It was soon hacked though. Now there is a new Open Source Project that plans to implement it.
(http://www.openvotingconsortium.org/).Lets see how many corporate Bashes does it get.
I am sure the the Voting Machines in India susectible for hacks. But Who Cares!!, The Village Babus dont care!!, nor do the youths, who are more likely to hack em’ (actually they just dont vote).
Hoorray India!! for being so SMART in such a case.

Uncle was happy with me today…I shud say that this is a very rare event!!!
He feels that I am truthfully turning myself into a biologist.
Actually after a long time, I also have started liking this subject (Woh!, kya bolte hain?..deer aye durust aye!!).
Don’t be surprised, if on one fine day I announce here that I will be doing my PhD in Computational Biology under Uncle or may be anyone.

Have u ever got that feeling of satisfaction when you (dad) buy(s) something absolutely so perfect , that there absolutely no way in any time, any new better product/thing/gift is gonna replace that?
Well, I have got that feeling quite a few times. Here are some of them.
1. My First Desktop - Its made me what I am today. Miss u Bhidu.(BTW, it still lets me talk to my mom everyday). People often call their desktops with weird names. I never did so, but I do call it Bhidu..thats normal though.
2. The First Studds Dad Bought me. - I still remember those Nivia (laugh laugh, that still was the company’s name). I scored 2 goals the very next day.
BTW I was a very good FOOTBALL player once.
3. A rocking chair for my dad, cell fone for my bro and the saree for my MOM, from my very first salary in life. - Nothing to say here. We all 4 were crying that day ;).
4. My Iriver Mp3 Player. - Yes Baby!! its come!!!
Actually I have 2-3 more things to mention here. But then I have kept them for days I cannot think anything to write.
